Presentation

For decades, major disputes involving Arab parties or contracts performed in the Arab world have frequently gravitated toward Western institutions, Western seats, Western laws, and Western arbitrators. But is this still necessary?

This panel will examine whether Arab arbitration ecosystems have reached a level of structural, institutional, and normative autonomy, or whether forms of external “validation” continue to shape market confidence.
