Björn will speak about how settlement fits into arbitral proceedings and how it can be actively encouraged. As a former member of the DIS Practice Group Settlement, he has first-hand insight into how the topic is handled in DIS arbitrations.
Björn will explain the provisions of the DIS Arbitration Rules and the distinctive "German approach," under which arbitral tribunals may take a proactive role in helping the parties reach an amicable resolution. He will show where opportunities for settlement arise at different stages of an arbitration, which pitfalls tribunals and counsel should avoid, and how parties can make the most of the settlement potential that remains even after proceedings have begun.
