Abstract
Abstract: The call for guidance on counsel ethics in international arbitration has intensified in recent years and has led to action. Following a comprehensive review of the subject, in May of 2013 the International Bar Association issued its Guidelines on Party Representation in International Arbitration (the "Guidelines"). In developing its recommendations, the IBA's Arbitration Committee investigated the different ethical and cultural norms and disciplinary rules that apply to counsel in international arbitrations. While these are only Guidelines with no inherent authority, the Guidelines are likely to foster significant changes. This article reviews the history of the development of the guidelines, provides an overview of the provisions of the Guidelines and offers comments on the implementation of the Guidelines.
