In international arbitration, litigants commonly come from very different legal systems. When a French company retains counsel in the United States to initiate an international arbitration against a government or company in Asia, what evidentiary and procedural rules should govern the parties’ dispute? Most commonly, the answer is the Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration, issued by the International Bar Association (IBA).

By Álvaro López de Argumedo Piñeiro, former Co-Chair of the IBA Arbitration Guidelines and Rules Subcommittee. The 2020 review of the IBA Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration applied the ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ maxim. The existing rules had achieved a successful balance between civil and common law traditions, as reflected in the 2016 IBA report on the reception of the IBA arbitration soft law products. This meant that only minor changes were required, mainly to adjust the rules to new and already widely accepted trends in international arbitration, and to take into account the technological challenges facing the arbitration community.
Confidentiality is often described as one of the key reasons parties choose to resolve disputes through international arbitration.

Over the years, there has been an issue on the validity and enforceability of non-compete clauses in employment contracts in Nigeria. The traditional and longstanding view is that these clauses restrict the employees fundamental rights including the employees’ right to freedom of association and right to earn a living, thereby impacting on their right to have a quality life. One of the effects of this, is that, it stifles mobility of labour and restricts the employee’s right to work. There is, however, a growing recognition that non-compete clauses may serve to protect the legitimate and reasonable investment of employers. The question, however, remains as to the factors to be considered in determining the reasonability of the non-compete clause.
