A library of arbitration knowledge, bound in black and white
Research papers, legal articles, arbitration guides, case studies, and annual reports from the International Arbitration Centre Limited. Written for practitioners, by practitioners.
Our publications change how practitioners arbitrate
Not shelf-filler. The papers and guides produced by the Centre are cited in proceedings and used to train tribunal members across jurisdictions.
The Centre's guide on expert determination saved us three weeks of procedural wrangling. We adopted its framework directly in a cross-border energy dispute.

I used the Centre's model procedural order as the backbone of my first institutional arbitration. The commentary alongside each clause made it actually usable.

The Academy's research paper on digital evidence in arbitration was cited in our tribunal's procedural order. That's the level of rigour we need.
