Arbitration is a procedure in which a dispute is submitted, by agreement between the parties, to one or more arbitrators who deliver a binding decision. Arbitration can only take place if both parties have agreed.

We continuously seek to improve efficiency, control time and costs and aid enforcement and confidentiality by introducing innovative new arbitration tools and procedures. This ongoing focus makes certain that we are always in touch with the concerns and interests of trading partners throughout the world.
