A new and dynamic approach to resolving complex cross-border financial disputes was unveiled at the opening conference of P.R.I.M.E. Finance (the Panel of Recognised International Market Experts in Finance), which was held in The Hague on January 16, 2012. P.R.I.M.E. Finance was established with the aim of facilitating dispute settlement, reducing legal uncertainty and fostering stability in the global financial markets. The panel's dispute resolution services represent a market-driven initiative to create an authoritative body of law and a specialized means of resolving high-value financial disputes.

Please join Mayer Brown partners Jeff Sarles and Paul Forrester as they:

• Provide an overview of the new P.R.I.M.E. arbitration rules, which are specifically tailored for financial disputes and
• Discuss the practical implications of the new rules for finance practitioners.
