What is International Arbitration?

• Arbitration is one of the most effective ways
  to resolve a conflict, offering a final and
  binding solution when parties are unable to agree
  upon settlement and without taking a matter into
  court. This technique involves one or more
  arbitrators reviewing the dispute and making a
  final and binding decision. When arbitration
  awards are rendered in international disputes,
  they are typically enforceable throughout the 149
  States that are Parties to the New York
  Convention.

Benefits of International Arbitration

• There are many benefits with international
  arbitration as compared to domestic court
  proceedings. Some of them are mentioned below
• Speed For individuals or organizations looking
  for faster outcomes to dispute resolution,
  arbitration is a great choice, especially if the
  parties agree to expedited (or fast-track)
  arbitration proceedings. The entire process can
  be much quicker than traditional court procedures
  since there is no appeal.
• Inexpensive Cases in traditional court last for
  years, especially when there are appeals, which
  translates into increasing costs over time.
  Because proceedings take less time, the cost of
  the entire process can be significantly less than
  in court litigations.

• Simplified Proceedings In arbitration, the
  procedural rules tend to be far simpler than
  before domestic courts, and they are highly
  flexible and may be customized by the Parties.
  Therefore, one can enjoy the relaxation of simple
  proceedings as compare to traditional court
  procedures, which can be very time-consuming and
  confusing when they are motion-based.
• Hire an Expert to Act as Judge In arbitration,
  parties have the option of choosing an arbitrator
  who is an expert in a particular industry or type
  of law, as opposed to more generalized domestic
  judges, who oversee many different types of
  disputes. Skilled arbitrators have special
  qualifications to understand the dispute from an
  industry perspective, for instance arbitrators
  familiar with the construction industry will
  understand the meaning of a critical path and how
  it is determined.
• Privacy No public hearings is another
  potentially significant advantage. It simply
  means that you can keep the whole matter private
  and the hearings will take place in private
  rooms. Decisions are not typically published,
  except for in international investment
  arbitrations, which are arbitrations involving
  States.

• Neutrality In international disputes, the party
  who is the litigant before a domestic judge
  typically has an advantage in the dispute. This
  is untrue in arbitration, where arbitrators may
  be selected from States other than those of the
  Parties to the dispute.
• Better-informed Judgments Because domestic
  judicial systems tend to be overburdened,
  domestic court judgments do not always have time
  to review all of the documents and pleadings
  provided in sufficient detail. This is typically
  not the case with respect to arbitrators.
• Enforceable Decisions In international disputes
  with their seats of arbitration located in one of
  the 149-odd State members to the New York
  Convention, the decision rendered is enforceable
  just like a court judgment in ¾ of the world.
• Hence, we can say that International
  Arbitration is an ideal way to resolve conflicts
  in a swift and efficient manner, with the
  oversight of expert arbitrators and through using
  good counsel.
