Arbitration is an essential component in business In an age when transparency is a maxim important issues which the laws governing arbitration currently fail to address are the extent to which disclosure of information can be constrained by private agreement along with the extent to which the duty to preserve confidentiality can be stretched Absent a coherent legal framework and extensive qualitative and quantitative data it is equally difficult to suggest and predict future directions This book offers a tool for attaining centralised access to otherwise fragmentary and dispersed material as well as a comprehensive analysis and detailed exposition of the position in relation to confidentiality in arbitration in the jurisdictions of England USA France and Germany
