Some Modest Proposals: Rethinking the “Usual Way” in International Arbitration

3 Jun 11:30 - 13:00

Commercial Arbitration

It is said that one of the benefits of arbitration is that proceedings can be tailored to meet the needs of the parties and the nature of the dispute. And yet in both commercial and investor-state arbitration, whether by design or inertia, parties and tribunals are often drawn to their own understanding of “the way it's always been done”.

The panel will explore their experiences of the current state of play as to arbitral procedure in both the commercial and investor-state contexts, and potential options for a change in approach with a view to improving the fairness, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of arbitration (and how such changes in approach can best be achieved).

Topics discussed will include:

Imposing discipline in pleading and expert evidence i.e. when is a Reply no longer a Reply?
Robustness in document production – can parties be trusted to self-adjudicate as to what is a “reasonable search”?
Setting boundaries as to what constitutes proper witness evidence
