Description
Bringing together speakers from diverse regions, this session will spotlight arbitration practice across emerging and frontier markets that are increasingly connected with Asia.
The panel are expected to discuss:
- Experiences of arbitrating in developing jurisdictions and the practical challenges that arise
- How arbitration markets grow from regional centres into global players
- What defines a “global” arbitral institution in practice
- Perceptions of leading Asia-based arbitral institutions and criticisms that they are not yet truly global
