The revised ICC Rules came into force yesterday, 1 March 2017. The ICC has not introduced substantive changes to the main body of the Rules, but has focused on the introduction of an expedited procedure for small claims, as well as general amendments designed to streamline non-expedited cases. The revisions have also sought to provide greater transparency to the arbitration process.
The changes are considered in our earlier blog post here.
