"The School of International Arbitration at Queen Mary University of London celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. It was the first place in the world to teach arbitration at graduate level and also the first main research centre. The 2015 survey is the sixth international arbitration survey of the School and the third sponsored by White and Case. It is also the largest, with 763 respondents and 105 interviews. We survey a very large sample and our questionnaires have become more nuanced over the years. The data collected is quite substantial and no doubt it will take some time to fully analyse it. What we have published is the executive summary and an executive report.
Arbitration, despite increased criticisms is well established and the survey shows that arbitration users, in-house lawyers, counsel and arbitrators, as well as the arbitration institutions have become very sophisticated. It is also clear that Asia is gaining very much in popularity. Regulation becomes also more refined and respondents seems to agree that macro-regulation is now sufficient while some micro-regulation will be needed.”
