Handbook on Third-Party Funding in International Arbitration 2nd ed

The Handbook on Third-Party Funding in International Arbitration was created through the collaboration of the ABA Section of International Law - International Arbitration Committee, the International Council for Commercial Arbitration (ICCA) and the Centre on Regulation, Ethics and Rule of Law at Queen Mary, University of London. Their goal was to study, identify, and address the central issues and threats specific to the Third-Party Funding (TPF) context and to provide guidance to legal practitioners confronted with third-party funding in international arbitration.

The new second edition delves even deeper into the intricate landscape of third-party funding. The original roster has been expanded to 82 authors, all with stellar credentials and first-hand experience. They share their knowledge on the central issues and questions surrounding TPF as well as their local markets. Twelve chapters explore the third party funding landscape presenting readers with both the actor’s and funder’s perspectives, while 40 country-specific reports offer a comprehensive global guide on Third-Party Funding (TPF) in international arbitration. The new edition provides:

• Up-To-Date Analysis: Coverage of fundamental developments surrounding TPF and its impact on arbitration proceedings, including the most recent regulation efforts as well as developments in disclosure and cost allocation;
• Counsel Guidance: How to deal with existing and impending threats of TPF regarding (ethical) duties of counsel, confidentiality and disclosure;
• Practical Advice on Obtaining Funding: Showing how to find the right funder, what the role of funding brokers is, what market alternatives to TPF are available, and how the funder's case selection works
