ICC COURT ON COVID-19 Is now a good time to settle your dispute?

Extraordinary circumstances call for extraordinary measures. The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic has forced the business community to think outside the box like never before and adapt in unprecedented ways. The world’s leading arbitral institution, the ICC International Court of Arbitration is no exception. But what do our ICC experts have to say? Is now a good time to settle your dispute?

• Are you concerned by the delays that the state of emergency may cause to your pending disputes?
• Do you fear – or are you having to face – requests for contractual renegotiation from your business counterparty?
• Are you wondering whether this is the right time to reach out to the Arbitral Tribunal and to the counterparty to propose mediation?
