As mentioned in previous issues, we are mindful that there is no shortage of arbitration newsletters – we hope you find our editions different.
In keeping with the firm’s strategic focus on our clients’ key geographical regions and our five focus industries – energy and natural resources, life sciences, transportation, financial services, and entertainment and media – each Reed Smith newsletter has a theme. Our prior issues have focused on themes such as arbitration in Asia and investor-state arbitration.
This one focuses on arbitration issues in Latin America, a diverse, far-flung region in which arbitration is widely used and in which our firm has a broad and long-standing arbitration practice – so we had no shortage of topics from which to choose. Given the scope of the region and our practice in it, we have decided to devote more than one issue to the region, this one being just the first, with more to come in the future.
We hope you will find the newsletter to be of value and, as always, would welcome your feedback.
