ICC releases latest Dossier of the ICC Institute of World Business Law

Paris, 22 September 2009




				The latest Dossier of the ICC Institute of World Business Law is now available

ICC has published the latest Dossier of the ICC Institute of World Business Law, Dossier VI - Written Evidence and Discovery in international Arbitration. The Dossier seeks to encourage reflection on future practice in relation to documentary evidence in international arbitration.

Documentary evidence is at the heart of the arbitral process. Arbitrators are increasingly confronted with new challenges, such as requests for E-Discovery, as well as ever more frequent objections to confidentiality and privilege.

Document production may also confront arbitrators with difficult issues of fraud and forgery. Further, arbitral tribunals may have to decide which rules apply to issues such as the evidentiary value of documents or their admissibility. Covering issues such as document disclosure; evidentiary value of documents and burden of evidence; state courts and document production; adverse inferences and many more, this publication will be an invaluable source of information for anyone interested in international arbitration.

“ICC Institute Dossier VI is … meant to complement Dossier II on Oral Evidence and to give our readers an up-to-date picture of this essential aspect of international arbitration,” said Serge Lazareff, Chairman, ICC Institute of World Business Law.

With the publication of Dossier VI - Written Evidence and Discovery in International Arbitration, the ICC Institute of World Business Law fulfils its dual mission: training and acting as a think-tank for ICC, particularly in the field of arbitration.
