Asia Hub presents: Arbitration & Insolvency: Navigating Protocols, Practice and Policy
When insolvency processes intersect with arbitration clauses, critical questions of forum, timing and priority come to the forefront - which process gives way, on what terms, and with what downstream consequences for creditors, recoveries and deal strategy. These issues are becoming increasingly common in distressed situations, and the answers are not always consistent across courts, tribunals or jurisdictions.
This masterclass examines that interface in depth, using the launch of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) Restructuring and Insolvency Arbitration Protocol as a starting point. Panelists will examine how the Protocol is intended to operate, the efficiencies it aims to create, and how it may influence practice where arbitration and insolvency operate in parallel.
The masterclass will also cover how these issues are handled in practice: how arbitration is expected to function in disputes arise in an insolvency context, where tensions most often arise with concurrent processes, and the strategies available to manage timelines, moratoria, resource constraints and cross-border complexity – all while preserving value.
A diverse panel of practitioners and institutional representatives will offer arbitration, restructuring and policy perspectives , and examine how coordination and enforcement are being handled in this evolving space .
The masterclass is designed for arbitration and disputes counsel, insolvency and restructuring practitioners, in-house legal and risk teams, and financial stakeholders seeking a clear, practice-focused view of how protocols, day-to-day practice and policy are developing at the arbitration–insolvency interface.’
This event is co-hosted by INSOL Asia Hub and WongPartnership LLP, with the support of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) and the INSOL Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Group.
