What happens when arbitration meets insolvency? This was the
central question at the Swiss Arbitration Practitioners’
Seminar, held in Vienna on 12 April 2025, right at the start of the
Willem C. Vis International Arbitration Moot.

Hosted by Swiss Arbitration, the session brought together
leading voices from different jurisdictions to explore the legal
and practical tensions that arise when insolvency intersects with
arbitration: Veronika Korom (PARAGON Advocacy), Louis Flannery KC
(Littleton Chambers), Christian Koller (University of Vienna),
Olivier Mosimann (Kellerhals Carrard), Petra Rihar (Rihar &
Thouvenin Dispute Resolution). The discussion looked at the
challenges that arise from an insolvency of the claimant or the
respondent in arbitration proceedings.

With opening remarks from Flavio Peter (Peter & Kim) and
Swiss Arbitration Ambassador Florian Haugeneder (KNOETZL), the seminar set
the stage for lively debate and thoughtful discussion.
