Details

Finances in International Arbitration focuses on various aspects of finances of arbitration, such as evaluating the costs of disputes, arbitral institution costs, financing of disputes, recovery of costs of arbitration and other related financial matters. Costs of arbitration have always been a main concern in international arbitration. It is a topic most often discussed and analysed. In spite of the recent developments in third-party funding regulations as well as other mechanisms made available to users of arbitration to reduce costs, the topic remains a key focus for users of arbitration. This book celebrates the career of Dr Patricia Shaughnessy, in particular, for the establishment of the top-ranked Masters of Law (‘LLM’) programme in International Commercial Arbitration at Stockholm University. Over twenty-five renowned practitioners and academics worldwide, who have been influenced by Dr Shaughnessy, explore this much-debated topic on the occasion of her 65th birthday.

What’s in this book:

The contributions in this dedication to Dr Shaughnessy’s legacy look at issues such as the following:

  • costs of court proceedings versus arbitration proceedings;
  • fee arrangements with legal counsel;
  • costs of commercial versus investment arbitration;
  • how to deal with in-house costs in international arbitration;
  • impact of tribunal secretaries in international arbitration;
  • cost sanctions in international arbitration;
  • damages in international arbitration.

The contributors offer proposals involving both legislative and judicial actions, with examples of judges invoking criminal law principles to develop an appropriate level of safeguards in competition law proceedings.

How this will help you:

The analysis and views offered by leading scholars and practitioners on current issues arising out of costs of arbitration will offer readers a unique perspective on various aspects of the finances involved in arbitration. This book will provide insightful thoughts and practical guidance for academics and practitioners in the field of international arbitration. As an interesting multi-contributor work on finances in international arbitration, the book will complement the existing arbitration offering and fill the obvious gap in the international commercial arbitration market.
