It also considers the position in Hong Kong, where security of payment legislation is yet to be introduced.

The ‘In-house Counsel Focus’ article by Mustafa Hadi considers the pros and cons of tribunal-appointed experts by comparison with party-appointed experts. The ‘Jurisdiction Focus’ article by Christina Pak discusses Fiji’s accession to the New York  Convention in 2010, its enactment of a modern International Arbitration Act in 2017 and the future of international arbitration in Fiji.

The issue concludes with a book review by Joshua Fellenbaum of Tribunal Secretaries in International Arbitration by Dr J Ole Jensen.
