The Singapore Chamber of Maritime Arbitration (SCMA) mock arbitration aims to showcase an international maritime and trade dispute, conducted under the latest 4th Edition 2022 SCMA Rules, which came into effect on 1 January 2022. Delegates will have the opportunity to gain real insight on how a cross-border arbitration is conducted, based on a dispute between a Chinese and an Indian party, who will be represented by Chinese and Indian counsel of their choice. There will be issues of both law and fact, with a preliminary legal issue to be determined before a tribunal of three experienced arbitrators. The factual witnesses will also be cross-examined during the 90 minute session, and delegates will be able to access the case scenario beforehand.
