Cofola International 2021. International and National Arbitration – Challenges and Trends of the Present and Future

Kapitola

Abstrakt

The aim of the paper is to compare the ICC Expert proceedings and ICC Arbitration within alternative dispute resolution services provided by the International Chamber of Commerce. These two procee-dings are widely used contractually in conjunction, however their outcomes and effectiveness pursu-ant to the legal framework of the Slovak Republic differ. We aim to outline the important factors to consider when choosing these methods of dispute resolution and their particularities. This contri-bution will contrast the legal nature of ICC Expert Reports and ICC Arbitration Awards and their re-spective recognition and enforceability in the Slovak Republic.

Klíčová slova
