Details

Stockholm Arbitration Yearbook 2019 offers content that is of interest for the wider international arbitration community and addresses current issues of global concern. Each year, Stockholm is the arbitration seat of choice for numerous parties endeavouring to resolve international disputes, both ad hoc arbitration and cases administered by the SCC Arbitration Institute, the ICC and other arbitral institutions. It is the second most used venue for investment disputes, and it is often the venue for disputes arising from the Energy Charter Treaty. This new annual publication, launched under the auspices of the Stockholm Centre for Commercial Law, is designed to meet the information needs of arbitration practitioners and parties from all over the world.

What’s in this book:

This first edition of the Yearbook Stockholm Arbitration provides authoritative articles, some of them with a Swedish angle, that address current matters of global concern in arbitration, including the following:

multi-appointment bias;
cross-examination and advocacy in arbitration;
due process: paranoia or prudence?;
robots as arbitrators;
security for costs and third-party funding in investment arbitration; and
the ‘Arbitration Station’ podcast.

Recent developments in Swedish arbitration-related case law are summarized. The 2019 changes in the Swedish Arbitration Act are presented.

How this will help you:

The Yearbook provides both perspective and detailed analyses that will be welcomed by arbitration practitioners, counsel and judges deciding arbitration cases. It provides valuable insights for arbitration academics, in-house counsel at multinational companies and arbitral institutions worldwide.
