Understanding of the principles of conflict of laws is essential to lawyers who aim to service the highly globalised and interconnected economy of Singapore. This book deals with the central principles, methodologies, and controversies in the subject, with a focus on topics that are relevant to commercial transactions. It examines the jurisdiction of the Singapore courts (including the Singapore International Commercial Court) in cross-border litigation, the effect of foreign judgments in Singapore, choice of law methodologies and their particular application to contractual and non-contractual obligations and inter vivos property transactions. The common law principles are discussed in the context of the framework of Singapore legislation, including the Choice of Court Agreements Act 2016 (implementing the Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements), the refreshed Reciprocal Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Act 1959, as well as the new Rules of Court 2021.

This invaluable title includes in-depth discussion from an international perspective of the principles of commercial arbitration (and investment-state arbitration) with a principal focus on English law and practice but with extensive reference to the law of other major arbitral jurisdictions, including Singapore, Hong Kong, France and Australia, and to the rules of major arbitral institutions.
It combines expert commentary on the origins, essence and characteristics of the Arbitration Act 1996 with practical guidance on the application of the Act both in arbitration and in court. The commentary seeks to identify, analyse and offer answers to points of potential controversy. It discusses the forthcoming amendments to the Arbitration Act 1996 in the Arbitration Bill 2024 which followed on from the Law Commission review of the arbitration law of England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Over twenty years have passed since the Companion to the Second Edition was published, this new edition has been completely rewritten to reflect expert consideration of the latest case law and proposed statutory reforms, while at the same time seeking to preserve the analytical strength and comprehensiveness of treatment which made the first two editions of this book an invaluable treatment of this important subject. In addition, the book now includes chapters considering the particular characteristics of institutional arbitration, and three chapters addressing investor-state dispute resolution, which has become increasingly important over the two decades since the 2001 Companion.

Mustill & Boyd: Commercial and Investor State Arbitration Third edition (LexisNexis)Usual Price: SGD 1,039.86 -
As with the 1st Edition, this 2nd Edition examines the law relating to arbitral awards from two perspectives: awards resulting from arbitrations that are seated in Singapore and awards made elsewhere that are being enforced in Singapore. Since the 1st Edition was published, Singapore has become a top choice for place of arbitration. The volume of cases arriving before Singapore courts enabled many principles of arbitration to be debated and judicially articulated. Jurisprudence from Singapore courts is closely studied in other countries. Likewise, the Singapore judiciary carefully considers case law from other jurisdictions when faced with legal conundrums. This reciprocal influence is largely driven by the confluence of arbitration laws underpinned by the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards 1958 and the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration, 1985 (amended 2006). This is especially so with regard to enforcement and challenges to arbitral awards, which are core topics in this book.
For this reason, the 1st Edition had been cited not only by the Singapore Supreme Court but also courts in jurisdictions from Australia to Brazil. Hence, this 2nd Edition should be of interest to all who have an interest in arbitration, whether in Singapore or elsewhere.
