Description
Highlights
Amendments to the ICC Rules of Arbitration have been made with the aim of further increasing the efficiency and transparency of ICC arbitrations. The revised rules apply from 1 March 2017. They provide for expedited procedure rules for cases of lower value. The main changes will be introduced with a strong focus on features of the expedited procedure including substantive and procedural aspects.
Arbitration in the UAE continues to evolve and the number of local and international cases has grown considerably since the first edition of this book was published in 2013. The second edition of the book on UAE Courts’ decisions on arbitration comprises 40 carefully selected judgments (2012 – 2016) from the Federal Supreme Court, the Abu Dhabi Court of Cassation, the Dubai Court of Cassation and the DIFC Courts. The main developments relating to arbitration case law in the UAE will be presented.
