Institutional Arbitration

International arbitration has become the preferred dispute resolution mechanism in cross-border disputes. In the course of time, ad hoc arbitration, where the parties have to create their own rules and procedures, has increasingly been replaced by institutional arbitration, where a specialized institution with a permanent organization provides assistance and a set of practice-proven rules. The services and rules provided by the various institutions of arbitration differ. In order to inform the potential parties and their counsels about the differences, to make the choice between the different arbitration regimes easier, and to offer guidance through the various provisions, this book provides a comprehensive article-by-article commentary of rules of arbitration of 15 important arbitration institutions: AAA (American Arbitration Association) * CIEDAC (China International Economic and Trade Arbitration) * DIAC (Dubai International Arbitration Center) * DIS (German Institution of Arbitration) * ICC (International Court of Arbitration) * ICSID (International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes) * KLRCA (Kuala Lumpur Regional Center for Arbitration) * LCIA (The London Court of International Arbitration) * MKAS (Moscow International Commercial Arbitration Court) * SCC (Stockholm Chamber of Commerce Arbitration) * SIAC (Singapore International Arbitration Center) * Swiss Rules * UNCITRAL Rules * Vienna Rules
