Mind the Gap: Transforming Abstract Awards into Concrete Assets

In the sophisticated landscape of global dispute resolution, a final arbitral award or court judgment is often celebrated as the finish line, yet for many clients, it merely marks the beginning of a complex "enforcement gap" where legal victories remain abstract successes on paper. As part of LIDW26’s exploration of transformation, this session brings together leading legal experts and recovery specialists to discuss the radical shift from legal theory to financial reality, moving beyond the "win" to ensure that judgments and awards are treated as the first step in a proactive, value-driven recovery strategy.

The discussion will explore how the enforcement landscape is being transformed through a modern monetisation mindset and sophisticated, multi-jurisdictional recovery campaigns. By reimagining investigative strategies to pierce corporate veils and navigating the unique hurdles of sovereign immunity, the panel will move the conversation from legal stalemates to commercial resolutions. Join us for a pragmatic, high-stakes session on how to ensure your client’s next paper victory—whether from a courtroom or an arbitral seat—is successfully transformed into a tangible recovery.
