When Arbitration and Insolvency Collide - Key Recent Developments
4 Jun
16:00 - 17:30
Corporate & Commercial Disputes
Restructuring & Insolvency
Arbitration lawyers talk about ""bet the company"" disputes, but what happens when the dispute really does kill the company? This panel will cover issues such as:
• The position of arbitral award creditors in a scheme of arrangement and other insolvency settings (see e.g. McDermott);
• Attempts to use arbitration processes to achieve a preferential outcome as a creditor (see e.g. the recent WM Mining v Mongolia ICSID case);
• The moratorium on proceedings and how this is treated by arbitral tribunals.
Our panel brings together market leading insolvency practitioners, arbitration counsel and restructuring counsel, all with direct experience of landmark recent cases.
