What aspects of the arbitration
contribute most to delay?
According to respondents, disclosure of
documents is the longest stage (24%),
followed by written submissions (18%), the
constitution of the tribunal (17%) and hearings
(15%). It is noteworthy that these factors are
very much within the control of the parties. On
the other hand, in the interviews, particularly in
North America, it was noted that corporate
users are not happy with the time it takes
between the final hearing and the rendering of
the award. Most interviewees said that they
would consider it appropriate for an award to
be delivered around three to six months after
the close of hearings, whereas it is common
for awards to be rendered more than
12 months after the close of hearings (with
some ‘horror stories’ of awards not being
rendered for up to three years).
