The trend of regionalization of arbitration is accelerating and the Arab world is no exception.

While Arab jurisdictions have solid seats, notably in North Africa and the Gulf, statistics show that Arab users continue to frequently stipulate a seat outside the region in their arbitration clauses and Paris seems to be a preferred venue.

The panel of experts, private practitioners and representatives of major arbitration institutions will explore the dynamics in the parties’ choices when dealing with Arab arbitrations.
