Abu Dhabi International Arbitration Centre’s (arbitrateAD) new Arbitration Rules: 12 Key Features

Share

We recently reported on the newly launched Abu Dhabi International Arbitration Centre branded as "arbitrateAD" (the "Centre"), which replaced the Abu Dhabi Commercial Conciliation and Arbitration Center ("ADCCAC") on 1 February 2024.  The Centre recently published its Arbitration Rules, effective from 1 February 2024 (the "arbitrateAD Rules"), which incorporate international best practices and standards, and provide a modern, cost-effective and flexible arbitration framework.

In this Legal Update, we summarise 12 key features of the arbitrateAD Rules including how they differ from ADCCAC’s Arbitration Rules (2013) which they replace for ADCCAC arbitrations filed from 1 February 2024. We also provide useful guidance for parties in the region who have contracts containing arbitration clauses.
