1 2018 International Arbitration Survey THE EVOLUTION OF INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION In partnership with: Contact: Adrian Hodis (White & Case Research Fellow in International Arbitration)

2 Introduction This is the eighth major empirical International Arbitration Survey conducted by the School of International Arbitration, Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). We are pleased once again to welcome White & Case LLP as our project partner. The Survey considers the evolution of international arbitration as a system: its past, present and future. The Survey aims to research the sentiment of the international arbitration community as a whole, and not just the views of any particular group within it. All stakeholders therefore are invited to share their perspectives, regardless of whether their experience with international arbitration is based on activities as a private practitioner, in-house counsel, arbitrator, academic, or through work for an arbitral institution. We appreciate that not all questions are relevant to all respondents. Please answer as many questions as you can, and feel free to leave blank those you cannot. The questionnaire should take approximately 20 minutes to complete. In addition to the questionnaire phase of the Survey, we will seek to conduct individual interviews with a selection of willing respondents from October to December If you would prefer solely to provide an interview rather than complete the questionnaire first, please contact Adrian Hodis. Your participation in this questionnaire will be kept fully confidential. Your name and the name of your organisation will not appear on any materials connected with the Survey. The information gathered by the questionnaire will be stored securely by QMUL and used only for the purposes of the current Survey and any subsequent surveys. The closing date for responses is 8 December Results will be published in Spring The questionnaire can be completed online, or in PDF format and sent to Adrian Hodis. Links to both versions are available on the following website: We are grateful for your participation and look forward to the Survey s outcomes. Since the results will benefit from a wide pool of respondents, please feel free to forward this questionnaire to any other potentially interested respondents. Further information can be obtained from: Adrian Hodis White & Case Research Fellow in International Arbitration School of International Arbitration Centre for Commercial Law Studies Queen Mary, University of London Lincoln's Inn Fields, London WC2A 3JB, UK Tel: Fax: Website: a.hodis@qmul.ac.uk

3 Instructions Please answer as many questions as you can, leaving blank any that you are not able to answer. Answering the questions does not require any data collection or research. You should be able to answer all questions based on your knowledge only. Please note that if your company is a subsidiary or branch of a larger group, you should only answer for the subsidiary/branch over which you have responsibility, rather than for the whole group. All questions are concerned with international disputes only. For the purposes of the survey this means: disputes in which the parties, or their controlling shareholders, are from different jurisdictions, or disputes where the parties are from the same jurisdiction, but the dispute involves an international (i.e. not purely domestic) element. When a question states that it concerns a specific period of time (e.g. the past 5 years ), and you only have an answer for a shorter period, please give an answer for that shorter period. Part I: Information About You and Your Organisation Q1: Your name and title (e.g. Mr, Ms, Dr): Q2: address: Q3: Organisation name: Q4: Your primary role: Q5: In-house counsel Private practitioner Arbitrator Arbitrator and counsel (in approximately equal proportion) Other Please specify your position: 1

Over the past 5 years, approximately how many international arbitrations has your organisation been involved in?

5 Part II: Choices in International Arbitration General experience of arbitration Q10: Q11: Q12: What is your preferred method of resolving cross-border disputes? (For the purposes of this question, ADR would include, for example, mediation, conciliation, adjudication and dispute boards but NOT litigation or arbitration.) (Select one option) Cross-border litigation Cross-border litigation together with ADR International arbitration International arbitration together with ADR In your view, what are the three most valuable characteristics of international arbitration? (Select three options) Avoiding specific legal systems/national courts Confidentiality and privacy Cost Enforceability of awards Finality Flexibility Neutrality Ability of parties to select arbitrators Speed In your view, what are the three worst characteristics of international arbitration? (Select three options) Cost Lack of appeal mechanism on the merits Lack of effective sanctions during the arbitral process Lack of flexibility Lack of insight into arbitrators efficiency Lack of insight into institutions efficiency Lack of insight into how institutions select and appoint arbitrators Lack of speed Lack of power in relation to third parties National court intervention 3

6 Q13: Are you likely to choose or recommend international arbitration to resolve cross-border disputes in the future? Yes No Choice of arbitral seat Q14: Q15: What are your or your organisation s most preferred seats? (Please specify up to five seats, in no order of preference) Specify: Specify: Specify: Specify: Specify: Please indicate in the table below the four most important reasons for your preference for certain seats, ranking only those four selected reasons in order of importance (1 being the most important and 4 the least important): 1 Availability of specialist lawyers at the seat Availability of quality arbitrators who are familiar with the seat Cost Familiarity with local culture Efficiency of local court proceedings General reputation and recognition of the seat Language Location and quality of hearing facilities Location of people (e.g. your organisation or client s employees, legal and other advisors, experts, accountants, secretaries and hearing staff) Location of the arbitral institution chosen for the arbitration National arbitration law Neutrality and impartiality of the local legal system Track record in enforcing agreements to arbitrate and arbitral awards

7 Q16: What impact do you think Brexit will have on the use of London as a seat? (1 being the most negative impact, 3 being no impact at all, and 5 the most positive impact): Negative Q17: Q18: Positive What are the principal reasons for your answer? (Select up to three options) Other arbitral seats will appear more attractive by comparison. The legislative framework applicable to arbitration and the English courts will continue to be supportive of arbitration. London s reputation as a commercial centre will diminish. The UK will continue to be a party to the 1958 New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. The English legal system will continue to be perceived as neutral and impartial. There are uncertainties over the impact of Brexit on English law and the English legal system. English substantive law will continue to be a popular choice for international contracts. London will be less attractive as a venue for hearings. Specialist lawyers and quality arbitrators will still be available in London. Arbitral awards made in London will become harder to enforce outside the jurisdiction. The impact of EU law and legal systems will be limited. There will be reduced availability of specialist lawyers and quality arbitrators in London. London will still be a leading commercial centre. If you think Brexit will have a negative impact on the use of London as a seat, which seat(s) do you think will benefit most from this? 5
