Litigation Insurance in Middle East
Common-law free-zone courts and arbitral centres operate alongside local courts.
How can litigation insurance work in Middle East?
Common-law free-zone courts and arbitral centres operate alongside local courts. That can shape which exposures dominate — common-law free zones, construction and energy disputes, enforcement — 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: Common-law free zones.
- Potential risk: Construction and energy disputes.
- Potential risk: Enforcement.
- Structure may follow the procedural rules of the forum, not the parties' nationality.
