Abstract

This chapter examines the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) in an examination of the significant features of arbitration in Singapore. The SIAC has received over 1,800 cases in 20 years. The rise of Singapore as a global centre for international arbitration can be traced to a number of factors. The SIAC has modern arbitration laws, state-of-the-art arbitration facilities, and a supportive government and judiciary. It also has a common-law legal tradition coupled with civil-law arbitration practices, and a geographically-well position. Each SIAC rule is analysed against the background of access to the travaux préparatoires of the 2010 SIAC Rules Drafting Committee, as well as involvement in the drafting of the 2013 SIAC Rules.
