Internal Arbitration Lecture 2018 - Full Lecture

2018: International Arbitration: “The Need for Speed - Is International Arbitration Becoming Overly Fixated with Efficiency?”
by Robin Oldenstam
Efficiency is an important factor in arbitration and likely key to its long term survival as a favoured form for resolving international commercial disputes. At the same time efficiency needs to be tempered by basic procedural principles, such as party autonomy and due process, as well as by general considerations of fairness. Recent years have seen tendencies to push the efficiency factor to the extent that it may start to infringe upon such principles and considerations. The lecture will offer examples of such tendencies and suggest that it may be time to push back.
