The tactical opportunities of the arbitration process – against the background of eight key jurisdictions – are introduced and discussed in this book:
– Selection of adequate proceedings
– Structuring the arbitration agreement (procedural rules, place and language of arbitration, multi-party situations)
– Preparing the proceedings
– Constitution of arbitration tribunals
– Interim relief
– Institution of proceedings and suspension of limitation periods
– Termination of the arbitration proceedings
– Measures against the arbitration award
– Recognition and enforcement of the arbitration award
– Annex: Comprehensive collection of relevant arbitration rules and national legislation
