Arbitration - Money Laundering, Corruption and Fraud eBook

Answers to Key Questions

This useful text contains the proceedings of a conference on arbitration and money laundering organized by the ICC Institute of World Business Law.

It brings the reader the expertise of lawyers, academicians and chartered accountants from a range of countries and addresses the key questions arbitrators and legal practitioners want answered:

• Is the arbitrator's role in a case of fraud different from his role in other disputes?
• Is the arbitrator bound to report a case of money laundering or fraud if he has a suspicion that something is wrong?
• Is counsel to report someone coming to him for advice?

A Practical Text

The Dossier gives a comprehensive overview of the issues. It begins with a look at the nature of the problems lawyers and other professionals face and the solutions they adopt in their daily business.  The second part of the book concentrates on the problems raised for arbitrators by money laundering, fraud and bribery.  The book ends with a detailed Q&A discussion section.

The ICC Role

The publication continues a long tradition of ICC work in the field, which began as early as 1977 with ICC Rules to Combat Extortion and Bribery in International Business Transactions.  That focus has continued with widely acclaimed recent publications Preventing Financial Instrument Fraud by ICC Commercial Crime Services and Fighting Corruption, a practical guide for corporate managers.
