Litigation Insurance in International Arbitration
Seat, institution and enforcement route drive the structure more than nationality.
How can litigation insurance work in International Arbitration?
Seat, institution and enforcement route drive the structure more than nationality. That can shape which exposures dominate — tribunal-ordered security, award challenge, enforcement across states — and therefore which structures may be considered. Availability, admitted status and enforceability of any instrument depend on the forum and on policy terms, and are confirmed matter by matter, subject to underwriting.
Key points
- Potential risk: Tribunal-ordered security.
- Potential risk: Award challenge.
- Potential risk: Enforcement across states.
- Structure may follow the procedural rules of the forum, not the parties' nationality.
