Join BIMCO and the Singapore Chamber of Maritime Arbitration (SCMA) for a workshop exploring international maritime dispute resolution and the role of arbitration in managing complex maritime and commercial disputes.
In an era of geopolitical instability, regulatory complexity, and globalised commerce, arbitration has become an essential mechanism because it offers neutrality, enforceability, flexibility, and expertise - qualities that traditional court systems often struggle to provide in cross-border disputes.
SCMA has demonstrated steady and measurable growth in recent years, particularly in the value and complexity of disputes it handles, reflecting its increasing relevance within the Asia-Pacific maritime sector. A value opportunity to understand the key strengths of Singapore arbitration and SCMA’s role in shaping maritime dispute resolution in Asia.
Moderator: Wei Zhuang, Head of Asia Pacific, BIMCO
Speakers:
- Nicholas Lum, Partner, Clyde & Co LLP
