Article summary

This week’s edition of Arbitration highlights includes our coverage of a rare successful application to set aside an arbitral award for serious irregularity under section 68(2) of the Arbitration Act (AA 1996) and, in another case jurisdiction challenges made under AA 1996, s 67 to awards made in ad hoc maritime arbitration proceedings. Also, following last week’s publication of the ICC’s 2018 caseload, we bring you our analysis of 2018 statistics from six major international arbitral bodies. All this and more in our weekly highlights.
