CHAPTER 3
SELECTING AN ARBITRAL INSTITUTION TO
ADMINISTER INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION:
ARE NATIONAL OR REGIONAL CENTERS A
VIABLE OPTION?
John B. Tieder, Jr.∗
I. Introduction
It is generally accepted that international arbitration is the best
method of dispute resolution when parties in a commercial relationship
are from different countries. In the event of a commercial dispute with
international dimensions, the lack of a binding arbitration clause leaves
the parties with no option but to resort to the courts of a country with
which one or both of them are unfamiliar and uncomfortable. Having an
arbitration clause in place at the commencement of the commercial
relationship gives the parties more control over how their dispute will be
resolved.
It is also generally accepted that international arbitration should be
conducted under the auspices of an administrative body, instead of being
ad hoc. This chapter discusses the considerations involved in deciding on
the institution to administer the dispute, and whether national and
regional centers can reasonably be considered.
