The CCIAG has been invited to speak at the GAR Live event held in Paris on 15 November 2013. A panel of corporate counsels chaired by Peter Rees, QC (legal director at Royal Dutch Shell and member of the CCIAG) discussed the topic: “How do companies decide on the place of arbitration?“.
The panel composed of eminent CCIAG members, Isabelle Hautot (CCIAG Chair and General Counsel at Orange), Christine Guerrier (VP Disputes and Litigation at Thalès) and Jean-André Diaz (Special Counsel at Total), talked from experience about the key factors to take into account when choosing the place of arbitration, the role of external counsels in the process and the difficulties that may occur.
