1115 – 1230

Quantum academy: training and certification on assessing damages Just about every international arbitration presents quantum issues and the value of claims, as well as the complexity of damages calculations, which has also increased substantially. However, lawyers’ knowledge and understanding of the non-legal dimensions of damages calculations has not kept pace.

Mark Friedman will propose a way we can close that critical deficit, make damages calculations more cogent, more reliable and improve confidence in arbitration damages awards.

Proponent Mark Friedman Debevoise & Plimpton, New York

CommentatorsKate Davies Allen & Overy, London Smitha Menon WongPartnership, SingaporeMichael Young QC Quinn Emanuel, Paris

1230 – 1400 Lunch

1400 – 1430 Keynote address: arbitration and a common lawyer Lord Hoffmann Brick Court chambers, London

1430 – 1545

Creating an independent technology and document management hub With environmental issues so high on the social and political agenda in much of the world, arbitration needs to accelerate its use of electronic media, but to do so efficiently and securely. In an ideal world, all arbitrations would be paperless, but even in 2020 the cumulative levels of waste are extraordinarily high. We are moving in the right direction but not fast enough and not consistently so.

Judith Gill will propose a workable, standardised approach to the use of technology and document management, which accommodates both those demanding high-end technical functionality and those who currently have neither the skills nor the resources to implement change.

Dispensing with the myriad of technological systems and protocols currently utilised, the hub will enhance efficiency, consistency and collaboration, as well as providing a more secure platform in a cost-effective way.

Proponent Judith Gill QC Twenty Essex, London

Commentators Gilberto Giusti Pinheiro Neto Advogados, Sao Paulo Amani Khalifa Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, Dubai; Membership Officer, IBA Arab Regional Forum Thomas Sebastian Monckton Chambers, London


1630 – 1745

Prosecuting and adjudicating fraud claims in international arbitration Business fraud consists of actions or omissions by an individual or company in a dishonest or illegal manner in order to exact an advantage. Corruption is certainly a form of fraud, however, unlike corruption, fraud classically entails misrepresentation, deception or concealment by the perpetrator with the intention of deceiving another party.

The bilateralism present in crimes of corruption is not present. Investor-state and commercial arbitral tribunals alike have struggled to deal with allegations of fraud and corruption in a fair, balanced and consistent manner.

Arif Ali will address the unique issues that are at play when fraud and corruption is alleged and propose innovative procedural approaches.

No deductions or withholdingsAll fees payable to us by you in accordance with the terms contained in this ‘Information’ section shall be paid free and clear of all deductions or withholdings whatsoever.

If any deductions or withholdings are required by law to be made from any fees payable to us by you under the terms contained in this ‘Information’ section you shall pay such sum as will, after the deduction or withholding has been made, leave us with the same amount as we would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such requirement to make a deduction or withholding.

If we obtain the benefit of any tax credit or other relief by reference to any such deductions or withholdings, then we shall repay to you such amount as, after such repayment has been made, will leave us in no worse position than we would have been had no such deductions or withholdings been required.

Conference sell-outsThe IBA places its conferences in venues of a suitable size for each event; however, there are times when our conferences may sell out. Should this happen, prospective delegates will be informed and a waiting list will operate. The waiting list will function on a ‘first come, first served’ basis, subject to receiving registered delegate cancellations. The waiting list for a conference will close once it has reached ten per cent of the venue capacity, as it is very unlikely a place will become available. The IBA will not be liable for any travel or accommodation expenses incurred by an individual who travels to a conference without a confirmed place at the event.

Cancellation of registration or social functionsIf cancellation is received in writing at the IBA office by 28 February, fees will be refunded less a 25 per cent administration charge. Refunds will be made minus any monies owed to the IBA.

We regret that no refunds can be made after this date. Registrations or social function bookings received after 28 February will not be eligible for any refund of fees. Please note that NO exception will be made to this policy. Should you have difficulties in obtaining your visa and are not able to attend the Conference this cancellation policy will still apply.

Upon submission of your completed Conference registration form to the IBA you are considered ‘registered’ pending payment. Please note that the cancellation terms and conditions as indicated will apply as soon as your registration is received.

Provided you have cancelled your registration to attend an IBA conference in accordance with the terms of the ‘cancellation of registration’ clause included in the ‘Information’ section of the relevant conference programme, you must then confirm to us in writing at the IBA office as soon as possible, but in no event later than one year (12 calendar months) from the date of any such conference, all necessary details to enable any reimbursement owed to you to be paid. We regret that no refunds will be made after the date that is one year (12 calendar months) after the date of the relevant conference.

Travel arrangements and visasParticipants are responsible for making their own travel arrangements. It is recommended that you check your visa requirements with your local embassy or consulate. We are unable to dispatch visa invitation letters to support your visa application prior to receipt of your registration form and full payment of registration fees.

Please apply for your visa in good time.

The IBA cannot accept responsibility for hotel accommodation disputes between a delegate and the hotel.

Unauthorised accommodation agentsIt has been brought to our attention that there are multiple companies contacting past attendees, claiming to represent the IBA, offering ‘assistance’ with registration and hotel bookings.

They are operating by cold-calling and spamming companies whose names have appeared on previous List of Participants, Programmes and Sponsorship recognition. The only Accommodation Agent the IBA works with is Judy Lane ICS. Judy Lane ICS do not contact delegates on behalf of the IBA without delegates making initial contact. Please ignore any communication that does not come directly from the IBA or Judy Lane ICS.

International Bar Associationthe global voice of the legal profession

The International Bar Association (IBA), established in 1947, is the world’s leading organisation of international legal practitioners, bar associations, law firms and law societies.

The IBA influences the development of international law reform and shapes the future of the legal profession throughout the world. It has a membership of more than 80,000 individual lawyers and more than 190 bar associations and law societies spanning over 170 countries.

Inspired by the vision of the United Nations, the IBA was founded in the same spirit, just before the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was proclaimed in 1948. The IBA covers all practice areas and professional interests, providing members with access to leading experts and up-to date information, enabling them to better represent their clients’ interests.

Through its various committees, fora and task forces, the IBA facilitates the exchange of information and views among its members as to laws, practices and professional responsibilities relating to the practice of law around the globe.

Arbitration Committee overview

The IBA Arbitration Committee focuses on laws, practice and procedures relating to the arbitration of transnational disputes. Through its conferences, publications and projects, the Committee seeks to share information about international arbitration, promote its use and improve its effectiveness.

Additionally, the Committee works with the following committees to form the IBA Dispute Resolution Section:

Backed by over forty years of experience, the Asian International Arbitration Centre (”AIAC”) remains loyal to the heritage we have built under our old name (Kuala Lumpur Regional Centre for Arbitration). Following the 2018 rebranding, the AIAC continues its commitment to the international ADR ecosystem and its users by providing flexibility within our procedures, which allows users to tailor the dispute resolution processes and resolve a wide variety of domestic and international disputes at minimal cost. The AIAC administers arbitration, mediation, adjudication and domain name disputes focusing on continuous improvement of its products and services. Aside from disputes being resolved under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules, the AIAC assists in proceedings conducted under the following rules:

AIAC Arbitration Rules;AIAC Fast Track Arbitration Rules;AIAC i-Arbitration Rules;AIAC Mediation Rules; andAIAC Supplemental Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy.

As part of the AIAC’s holistic dispute management initiative, the AIAC was the first arbitral institution in the world to launch a suite of Standard Form of Building Contracts (“SFCs”). The AIAC’s SFCs balance the rights and obligations of all interested stakeholders and were the first standard form contract compliant with the Construction Industry Payment and Adjudication Act 2012. In addition to the AIAC SFCs, the AIAC annually hosts a Sports Month, which aims to promote awareness about sports law and suitability of ADR mechanisms for sport disputes. Moreover, the AIAC is also one of the four offices of the Asian Domain Name Dispute Resolution Centre (“ADNDRC”) through which it provides domain name dispute resolution services under the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers’ Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy. Currently, the AIAC operates the Secretariat of the ADNDRC and Mr. Vinayak Pradhan is the Chairman of such. The AIAC is also authorised by the Malaysian Network Information Centre (”MYNIC Berhad”) and the Brunei Darussalam Network Information Center

(”BNNIC”) to administer .my and .bn domain name disputes. Finally, the AIAC constantly conducts roadshows and capacity building events to disseminate knowledge regarding such initiatives and ADR within Malaysia and abroad.
