IBA Mediation Committee panel and breakfastHilton Buenos Aires Hotel
The delegatus non potet delegare principle created by international arbitrators in the context of mediation, arb-med and med-arbDo arbitrators have the power (or duty) to suggest to parties to mediate in the absence of step-up dispute resolution clauses in the contract? This panel will describe, analyse and criticise the principle created by international arbitrators that the arbitrator’s duty is to proceed to an award, and has neither power nor duty to stay arbitration to refer the matter to mediation. In particular, it will address:• Does the arbitrator have the power to stay proceedings to
enable mediation to take place where one party so applies or where the tribunal considers it just and reasonable to do so?
• Can the arbitrator impose cost sanctions on a party who fails to engage or refuses to mediate?
• Does the arbitral tribunal have a duty to order a stay where the interests of justice clearly point in that direction?
• What is the future of delegatus non potet delegare in the rapidly changing landscape of dispute resolution, in an ad hoc arbitration and in institutional arbitrations?

domestic law to escape an international arbitration agreement in international commercial arbitration

4) The rule that a treaty cannot be relied upon to escape, complete or modify an investment contract in investment arbitration

In particular, this panel will address:1) Use and misuse of the good faith principle in international
arbitration2) The contract not only obliges to what is written therein but
also to what arises from the contract’s nature and the bona fide principle

fragmentation of international law
