| Annotation | For many years, Sweden has remained one of the most popular venues for international arbitration. Sweden’s status as one of the leading arbitration centers in the world is based on, among others, long-term arbitration traditions and the existence of modern substantive and procedural legislation. Swedish Arbitration Act applies to all arbitration proceedings seated in Sweden. At the same time, the Act is not directly based on the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration. The article highlights general features of dispute settlement in arbitration in Sweden as well as a number of important procedural issues such as arbitrability of disputes, types of causes of action, evidence, confidentiality, arbitration costs, invalidity and setting aside of arbitration awards, the role of state courts in connection with arbitration. |
