With the new European Commission mandate starting, the focus has shifted to a post-covid world, of which competition law is at the very core. Ensuring the proper functioning of the internal market is paramount, in particular given the increasing complexity that grows as the world becomes more intertwined. For that, we are grateful to have Olivier Guersent, the Director-General of the Directorate General for Competition, join us to give an opening video message at our upcoming General Counsel Forum Europe, to highlight three key challenges for competition policies under the new mandate. Join us next Monday and Tuesday in Berlin to hear more and to discuss with your corporate legal peers across Europe the most pressing issues for lawyers.

Did you know that the "seat of arbitration" is not just a location? It plays a crucial role in determining the legal framework that governs the arbitration process, including procedural laws and court oversight. When choosing a seat of arbitration, organisations need consider factors such as: 1. Arbitration-friendly legislation - Some jurisdictions have laws that are supportive of arbitration, minimising court intervention and ensuring the enforceability of awards. 2. Judicial attitude - The courts in certain countries are known for being arbitration-friendly, meaning they are more likely to uphold arbitration agreements and awards. 3. Neutrality - Choosing a neutral country that is not the home jurisdiction of either party can ensure impartiality in the process. 4. Convenience and accessibility - The seat may be chosen for practical reasons, such as the convenience of travel, language, or availability of experienced arbitrators. 5. Enforcement - The seat’s adherence to international treaties, such as the New York Convention, is essential for the enforcement of the arbitral award in other countries. Common choices for the seat of arbitration include London, Paris, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Geneva, among others, due to their arbitration-friendly environments.
