The Act outlines the types of disputes that can be arbitrated, including commercial, contractual, and other civil matters. By broadening its scope, the Act enables businesses, individuals, and entities from various sectors to leverage arbitration for resolving conflicts.

Arbitration Agreement

A cornerstone of the Arbitration Act is the requirement for a written arbitration agreement between the parties. This agreement serves as the foundation for initiating arbitration and must be mutually agreed upon before any dispute arises.

The Act sets clear guidelines for the appointment of arbitrators, ensuring their neutrality and qualifications. Parties can select arbitrators based on expertise, allowing for more informed and relevant decision-making.

Conduct of Proceedings

The Arbitration Act provides a structured procedure for conducting arbitration hearings, addressing the rights of all parties involved. These guidelines help ensure fairness and transparency throughout the process.

The Impact of the Arbitration Act on Dispute Resolution

The Arbitration Act has significantly improved dispute resolution in Bangladesh by offering a faster and less costly alternative to traditional court proceedings. Its focus on confidentiality and efficiency makes arbitration particularly appealing for businesses. Additionally, the flexibility to appoint subject-matter experts as arbitrators enhances the quality and fairness of decisions.
