Contract Drafting and International Arbitration

Panel discussion among transactional lawyers who regularly draft and negotiate international commercial contracts. 

Questions and comments from the audience will be welcome after the panel discussion.

The purpose of the discussion is to contribute material and experience on contract clauses whose construction has proven to be uncertain, clauses that are meant to be interpreted faithfully, clauses that will probably be read in the light of the governing law, etc.

This discussion is one in a series of workshops organized in Oslo, Rome, Paris, London, Vienna, Sao Paolo and Singapore.

It is part of an empirical research project which verifies whether international contracts are construed uniformly in arbitration, or whether legal traditions play a role even though the frame is international.
