Description: 'The Functions of Arbitral Institutions' offers a clear yet nuanced overview of the diverse and complex reality of institutional arbitration, while challenging the assumptions conventionally held as to the role of arbitral institutions. For many decades, users of institutional arbitration have resolved cross-border disputes successfully through institutional arbitration without fully understanding the precise nature of the functions exercised by arbitral institutions and their impact on proceedings. Even though practitioners and arbitrators have gathered significant expertise as to the manner in which arbitrations ought to be conducted, many misconceptions remain.
