  1. SICC or Arbitration?

    JAN 13

    SICC or Arbitration?

    Together with Dr. Patrick Dahm, we discuss the founding of the SICC, its distinctive procedural features - particularly in comparison with arbitration - and available paths to the enforcement of judgments. We also offer a comparative perspective by examining how the SICC's model aligns with, and differs from, emerging German commercial courts.

    Autonomy in International Arbitration

    Together with Prof. Dr. Toni Marzal, we take a critical look at one of arbitration’s most foundational concepts: arbitral autonomy. We unpack its theoretical foundations, examine how the notion of autonomy has shifted over time, and question the basis on which it continues to claim legitimacy today.

    Arbitrability at the Pre-Award Stage

    In this episode, we explore a core procedural issue: the law applicable to arbitrability at the pre-award stage. Together with Caroline von Rönn, LL.M. (Stellenbosch), we discuss the concept of arbitrability, the different possible approaches to determine the applicable law and, of course, the famous Anupam Mittal v. Westbridge Ventures II Investment Holdings decision of the Singapore Court of Appeal.
