Hosted by ABI's International and Mediation Committees
Join us for an exhilarating exploration of the dynamic world of mediation and arbitration in restructuring and insolvency cases across common law and civil law jurisdictions. This abiLIVE webinar will delve into the different (supra)national legal frameworks shaping these processes, uncovering when and why mediation and arbitration is a game-changer, especially for cross-border and parallel proceedings. The panelists also will discuss types of mediators and selecting the most "effective" mediators based on case nuances and necessary interventions in the conflict. The analysis of international cases such as the Nortel case will break new ground on the potential of cross-border arbitration to mitigate jurisdictional conflicts.
