Abstract

The law and practice of commercial arbitration is always in a state of flux. Arbitral laws, arbitration rules, soft law instruments, and case law all develop and change, impacting commercial arbitration at both the international and regional levels. This article, the first of a new series, surveys select 2024–2025 developments in Asia-Pacific commercial arbitration law and examines the extent to which a regional approach to arbitration is thereby evidenced. In doing so, it contributes to our discipline’s understandings of how commercial arbitration currently fulfils its purposes of resolving merchant disputes and facilitating trade.
