This event will feature a panel discussion with distinguished speakers with in-depth knowledge on the landscape of dispute resolution in India. With the current robust economic growth and encouraging forecasts, India stands out as one of the “bright spots” in the global economy. Investment activity in India has grown significantly in recent years and is expected to continue to flourish. With the increase in opportunities and investment, protection of these investments is vital. This event will offer a snapshot of the past, present, and future developments in dispute resolution in India. It will discuss the recent legal and regulatory changes in the dispute resolution landscape in India, including proposed amendments to the Indian Arbitration Act, rise of institutional arbitration and an increase in bilateral investment treaty claims as a method of protecting investments. The panel will also discuss their practical experience on how to navigate the India landscape and offer personal insights on how to deal with Indian parties and manage investments in
India.
