The Singapore International Arbitration Act (SIAA), originally enacted in 1994 to give effect to the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration, has been revised and amended four times, further strengthening Singapore's position as a hub for international arbitration. Following the 2020 amendments, this book presents the first in-depth, section-by-section commentary of the SIAA, written by Singapore-qualified arbitration practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst in-depth, section-by-section commentary specially dedicated to the Singapore International Arbitration Act\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpert analysis of the jurisprudence by Singapore-qualified arbitration practitioners with international practices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparative analysis of relevant case law in other Model Law jurisdictions and in England and Wales\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePractical application: (1) advising parties on drafting arbitration agreements under Singapore law; (2) navigating stay applications and jurisdictional challenges before the Singapore courts; (3) enforcing and setting aside SIAA awards in cross-border disputes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoverage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArbitration in Singapore · Regulation of Procedural Aspects of Arbitration · Interface with Other Dispute Resolution Forums · Arbitration Agreements · The Effect, Interpretation, and Applicability of the Model Law · Stay of Court Proceedings in Favour of Arbitration · Number and Appointment of Arbitrators · Appeals from Jurisdictional Rulings · Arbitrability · Powers of the Arbitral Tribunal · Court Powers in Aid of Arbitration · Awards and Interest on Awards · Setting Aside an Award.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Authors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNelson Goh, Jonathan Lim and Paul Tan are Singapore-qualified arbitration practitioners.
