The Institute was thrilled to have Ms Lucy Reed, Partner, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, share with attendees the tricks of navigating the complexities involved in arbitration of disputes arising from banking and financing transactions across various jurisdictions. Participants were provided with a sample of cases demonstrating the globalization of financial markets and concerns over cross-border enforceability of court judgments worldwide. Ms Reed also shared on the model arbitration clauses published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association and how various arbitration institutions have competed for disputes arising from structured financial products. The evening closed with a lively question and answer session, led by Chairman, Mr Mohan Pillay.
