The session, presented by Alessandro Tricoli from Fichte & Co, focuses on potential issues in ship sale and purchase agreements and to what extent arbitration provides a reliable way to address possible disputes.

Attended by both legal and commercial maritime stakeholders, it is evident that there is a clear appetite for a better understanding of how arbitration and mediation can facilitate time and cost savings when faced with a potential case.

“At EMAC, our aim is to provide a platform for open discussion about the various types of maritime disputes. As support to the industry, EMAC is committed to providing a trusted international standard for arbitration and mediation services”, said Majid Obaid bin Bashir, Acting Chairman and Secretary General, EMAC.
