Editor’s Note: As enterprises are increasingly engaged in international trade and

investment, international arbitration is recognized as the preferred option in the face of

cross-border disputes. However, international arbitration, which differs from domestic

arbitration with complex procedures, often put parties unfamiliar with its rules at an

inherent disadvantage. King & Wood Mallesons’ international arbitration teams are

located in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of

China, Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, London, Madrid, Brussels, Dubai, Tokyo, New York and

Silicon Valley. KWM International Arbitration Fundamentals is co-hosted by King & Wood

Mallesons’ China and Australia international arbitration teams. The purpose of the

program is to share knowledge and experience on international arbitration, including

international commercial arbitration and investment arbitration, from the perspective of

experienced lawyers. Hopefully it will benefit parties engaged in international arbitration.

Please comment with any suggestions or ideas.
