On 28 March at 14:30 CET, NERA Associate Director Ralph Meghames will moderate a panel of experts—including NERA Managing Director and Chair of the Global Securities and Finance Practice Dr. Faten Sabry, AFFAKI Independent Arbitrator Dr. Georges Affaki, King & Spalding LLP Partner Samaa A. Haridi, and White & Case LLP Partner Samy Markbaoui—during the “Recent Trends in Financial Disputes in International Arbitration” webinar. The webinar will explore the specifics of cases and topics involving the financial industry in international arbitration from a legal and economic perspective, examining financial disputes and how to quantify damages. The panel will share their experience and insights to approach financial disputes in international arbitration.
The panel will also address:
• The benefits and limitations of international arbitration in the financial industry;
• Common cases involving financial instruments;
• Regional-specific disputes, including Islamic finance and crypto; and
• Damages and the quantum expert toolbox (the use of statistical analysis and event studies).
