This timely Second Edition provides a comprehensive survey of the law of international arbitration in Singapore. There are also important new chapters covering third party funding and the jurisdiction of the SICC in Singapore.

Singapore is now recognised as one of the leading and fastest growing arbitral seats with a burgeoning case load in both commercial and investment treaty arbitration. The book covers both. This book gathers the leading names in international arbitration from both Singapore and the wider international community and so enables the reader to gain a unique insight and grasp of the fundamental principles of international arbitration in Singapore. The First Edition (2014) was widely cited in the courts of Singapore and practitioners can be confident of the authoritative stature of the Second Edition.
