The London Court of International Arbitration

The LCIA is universally recognised as one of the world's leading arbitral institutions.

The LCIA provides efficient, flexible and impartial administration of arbitration and of a wide range of other ADR procedures, regardless of the location of the parties, and under any system of law.

Challenges to Arbitrators: digests of LCIA decisions

The LCIA’s quarterly journal, Arbitration International, has published a Special Edition on
Arbitrator Challenges (Vol 27, No 3). The LCIA is the only arbitral institution that provides
reasoned decisions on challenges. This special edition contains digests of over thirty such
decisions rendered by the LCIA Court between 1996 and 2010, as well as an introduction
by Thomas W Welsh and Ruth Teitelbaum, and an article entitled Rectitude in International
Arbitration by Professor William W Park, President of the LCIA Court. It is hoped that the
publication of the digests and commentary will contribute to practitioners’ understanding of
the parameters of arbitrators’ independence and impartiality.
