The Regulation of International Commercial Arbitration: Arbitrators' Duties and the Emerging Arbitral Market

Price includes worldwide shipping via trusted international courier

This book addresses how the regulation of international commercial arbitrators takes place. International commercial arbitrators are a unique category of service providers because they are not organised as other professionals such as accountants, lawyers, and doctors. The book provides an overview of how and why the regulation of international commercial arbitrators diverged from that of other professions, and argues that there is an effective regulatory environment overseeing their behaviour despite these differences.

The book unpicks the different elements that contribute to the creation and enforcement of professional norms in this field, explaining how the specific characteristics of the arbitral market create strong incentives for ethical norms even in the absence of the institutions that usually address these issues in other fields.

Contents: The Emergence of International Commercial Arbitration and the Modern Arbitrator; Strategies within the International Commercial Arbitration Market; The Unique 'Regulation' of International Commercial Arbitrators; The Creation of Professional Norms Applicable to Arbitrators; Arbitrators' Compliance with Professional Norms; Enforcement of Arbitrators' Professional and Ethical Rules.
