The Baker & McKenzie International Arbitration Yearbook: 2010-2011

This is the fourth edition of the Baker & McKenzie International Arbitration Yearbook, an annual series established by the Firm in 2007. This collection of articles is comprised of reports in key jurisdictions around the globe on arbitration. Leading lawyers of the Firm s International Arbitration Practice Group, a division of the Firm s Global Dispute Resolution Practice Group, report on recent developments in national laws relating to arbitration and address current arbitral trends and tendencies in the jurisdictions in which they practice.

For this 2010-2011 edition, the topic of Section C of each chapter describes the results, both in practice and according to national legislation, when arbitration meets with the insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings of one of the parties to the arbitration.

The aim of this Yearbook is to highlight the more important recent developments in international arbitration, without aspiring to be an exhaustive case reporter or a text-book to arbitration in the broad sense. It is hoped that this volume will prove a useful tool for those contemplating and using arbitration to resolve international business disputes.
