Overview

Expedited International Arbitration considers how expedited international arbitration policies and procedures, including the 2021 UNCITRAL Expedited Arbitration Rules, operate and affect international commercial arbitration, investor-State arbitration and mediation globally. Increasingly, international commercial arbitration has come to resemble the judicial process it was intended to replace, especially in terms of speed, costs and efficiency. Arbitration institutions worldwide have adopted rules or procedures to expedite the arbitral process to address these concerns.


What’s in this book:

This book, comprising nineteen chapters, brings together thirty-one distinguished practitioners, academics and experts in the field from around the world. It furnishes diverse and rich perspectives on the various methods adopted to provide an expeditious and cost-effective means for dispute resolution, while recognizing the due process risks involved. Its comprehensive analysis of the case for expedited arbitration and the principles underpinning it covers the following aspects:

  • expedited arbitration rules adopted by major arbitration institutions;
  • expedited arbitration rules in the ‘ad hoc’ (non-institutional) context, including the UNCITRAL Expedited Arbitration Rules and UNCITRAL model clauses;
  • expedited arbitration rules in various geographic regions, including China, Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, and the Middle East, focusing on specific jurisdictions in each region;
  • new ICSID rules on mediation of investor-State disputes; and
  • expedited arbitration-mediation (Arb-Med) in the Far East, focusing on Macau.


How this will help you:

Arbitrators and parties to international agreements will better understand the issues, options, and consequences that may result from expedited arbitration. Practitioners will benefit from guidance in drafting arbitration clauses and weighing the pros and cons of expedited arbitration procedures in various jurisdictions and under various rules, both institutions and ad hoc. This insightful book will benefit international commercial arbitration as stakeholders seek to return international commercial arbitration to its foundational underpinnings: a prompt, productive and cost-effective means of resolving commercial disputes.
