Through this session, which will consist of largely three parts,
we would like to present an insider’s view as to where Japanese
arbitration stands today and what would come next.
The first part will focus on the Japanese arbitration regime. We
will not only provide a snapshot of the legal framework applicable
to Japan-seated arbitration and a summary of recent developments,
but also introduce anticipated changes to look out for.
In the second part, we will do a deep dive into construction
disputes in Japan, which are no stranger to arbitration. Drawing on
our experience representing both Japanese and non-Japanese parties
in construction arbitration as well as pre- and post-arbitration
negotiations, we will discuss interesting features of and tips for
managing construction disputes in Japan.
The third and final part will be a demonstration of how uniquely
Japanese any commercial arbitration can be, even where not all
parties share that nationality. By walking you through various
stages of arbitration proceedings, we will aim to give you a good
sense of what it means to arbitrate in Japan and how parties can
try to make the most of it.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
