Event Details

Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanisms, such as arbitration and mediation, are a major asset to promote the attractiveness of a country's business environment. Indeed, ADR mechanisms provide a discreet way to resolve commercial disputes compared to litigation, enhancing the overall business environment.


Businesses and investors in Cambodia don't have to go to Singapore anymore to solve their commercial disputes. Cambodia, too, has these ADR mechanisms, which are provided by the National Commercial Arbitration Center (NCAC). Therefore, by implementing these ADR mechanisms, the NCAC contributes to fostering a more predictable and business-friendly environment in Cambodia, thus attracting foreign direct investments and businesses and promoting domestic business growth.


Are you looking for a discreet, fast, and inexpensive way to resolve commercial disputes without going through traditional litigation ? This morning session is designed for businesses and investors seeking to better understand the Cambodian ADR landscape and gain more control over the dispute resolution process. Through this event, you will gain insights on ADR mechanisms available in Cambodia, helping you make informed decisions.
