One Agreement, Three Answers: Who Governs the Arbitration Clause
Waterview Room at Gardens by the Bay, SingaporeThe panel will explore the legal principles governing arbitration agreements focusing on common law and civil law approaches. The discussion will analyse how courts in UK, France and Singapore have determined the applicable law and the broader implications of these rulings for the validity and enforceability of arbitration agreements. By examining these differing perspectives, the panel will provide insights into the challenges of legal certainty in international arbitration and the practical consequences for parties navigating cross-border disputes.
