Notes

  1. A survey of European/US users, conducted by the London Business School in 1992, showed that confidentiality was listed as the most important benefit in international commercial arbitration. Bagner 2001.

  2. Kerr 1985.

  3. For more information concerning arbitration centers in Asia, see Greenberg 2010.

  4. Lewis 2011.

  5. For example, Hong Kong was not known as a center for arbitrations until recent years after a long-time enormous effort. In 1978–1980, only nearly fourteen arbitrations per year were conducted here. See Williams 1982.
