Join this panel during LAW for an in-depth discussion of the new IBA Arb40 Guide to Emergency Arbitration. Emergency arbitration has evolved from a niche concept into a critical mechanism for obtaining urgent interim relief in international disputes. Yet for many practitioners and arbitrators, the process remains unfamiliar and highly compressed, leaving little time to navigate complex rules and strategic considerations. To address this challenge, the IBA Arb40 Subcommittee developed the Guide on Emergency Arbitration, launched in November 2025. The Guide offers practical, comparative insights for counsel and arbitrators, demystifying the procedure and providing actionable advice for those facing emergency arbitration under tight deadlines.

The panel brings unique perspectives, featuring members of the working group behind the Guide, an IBA Arb40 co-chair who oversaw the project, and seasoned practitioners with experience as both counsel and emergency arbitrators. Together, they will explore key trends, procedural nuances, and enforcement challenges. This discussion is an opportunity to deepen your understanding of emergency arbitration and learn how to approach it with confidence and efficiency.
