Arbitrator Đặng Diệu Phương: Great Aspirations with Vietnam's Women Arbitrators Community
Arbitration is a method for resolving disputes that arise in business. Similar to the courts, arbitration is a form of adjudication with the authority to review the arguments, records, documents, and evidence of the disputing parties and issue a ruling on the matter. Some key advantages of arbitration include its final and binding awards, which are immediately enforceable, its speed, and the flexibility of the proceedings. Moreover, arbitration awards have international recognition, meaning they can be enforced in over 150 countries and territories that are signatories to the 1958 New York Convention. With the issuance of the Ordinance on Commercial Arbitration in 2003 and the Law on Commercial Arbitration in 2010, commercial arbitration has made significant strides and has gradually become the preferred choice for businesses, especially foreign investors, in resolving disputes.
