TNL v TNK
TNL v TNK and another appeal and another matter [2017] SGCA 15; [2017] 1 SLR 609
Key Principle
In dividing matrimonial assets under s 112 of the Women's Charter, the structured 'ANJ v ANK' approach does not apply to long Single-Income Marriages (one breadwinner, one homemaker); for such marriages the court takes a broad-brush approach and trends towards equal division to avoid unduly disadvantaging the homemaker spouse.
