BCDR-AAA - Bahrain Chamber for Dispute Resolution.

Draft Clauses

Please see the linked list of references (below) for suggestions and guidelines concerning the drafting of a dispute resolution clause. Please also refer to the additional material in this website concerning the unique Free Arbitration Zone (FAZ) available at the BCDR-AAA. The "Free Zone" guarantees that all international disputes under the BCDR-AAA, where those involved agree to be bound by the outcome, will be final and binding and not subject to challenge in the Kingdom of Bahrain. In a gulfnews.com article Habib Toumi (Bahrain Bureau Chief) wrote, "This resolves an issue that has been a significant problem in many parts of the world, despite existing international conventions. Bahrain's arbitration "free zone" will offer jurisdictional and legal certainty to the recognition of arbitration awards, an essential component of modern day commercial transactions".
