Layered on top of the substantive law complexities are procedural issues and the brain-twisting questions associated with determining which issues are substantive and which are procedural, while some may be both. These complexities become all the more tangled where one of the parties is insolvent, and may have invoked bankruptcy protections in different jurisdictions. Bamforth and Gandhi’s book serves as a guide to untying the Gordian Knot that often presents itself when insolvent parties arbitrate. The chapters individually and collectively are well-organized and didactic. The individual authors’ experience as arbitrators and counsel in this complex area shines through and makes the book a deserving addition to any serious practitioner’s library.’ – Arif Hyder Ali, Chair, International Arbitration and Public International Group Key Features: • Examines international perspectives on insolvency proceedings • Investigates the New York Convention 1958, the Insolvency Act 1986 and the Arbitration Act 1996 • Assesses whether insolvency is a procedural or substantive matter for the purposes of arbitration • Provides practical guidance on the commencement of insolvency proceedings for an arbitrable debt • Analyses the impact of foreign insolvencies on England-seated arbitration and English statutory adjudication 2024 268 pp Hardback 978 1 80088 738 1 £149.00 / $237.00 eBook • Elgaronline Elgar Arbitration Law and Practice series
