SYNOPSIS
The 2019 International Dispute Resolution Survey: Currents of Change Preliminary Report presents the first-look findings of the Singapore International Dispute Resolution Academy’s ground-breaking examination into the preferences, practices, and perspectives of international dispute resolution users around the globe. These findings examine three international dispute resolution mechanisms: International Commercial Arbitration, International Commercial Mediation, and International Commercial Litigation. The report summarises findings from each mechanism in turn and provides an overview of the results, then explores key trends drawn from the data identifying currents of change drawing international dispute resolution into the third decade of the 21st century. The Currents of Change Preliminary Report Seminar will offer the first opportunity to learn about the findings directly from the survey designers, and will provide a forum for commentary on the findings from the Singapore practitioner and user community.
