SCMA, SICC enhance S'pore's maritime trade arbitrations

SCMA designates SICC as the supervisory court to hear IAA-related applications.

Singapore Chamber of Maritime Arbitration (SCMA) introduces a jurisdiction model clause where parties designate the Singapore International Commercial Court (SICC) as the supervisory court to hear IAA-related applications.

This is due to SICC’s growing reputation for effective adjudication of applications on international commercial arbitrations.

This collaboration between SCMA and SICC is expected to further enhance Singapore's position as a leading hub for maritime and international trade arbitrations.

“Singapore is a global legal hub that offers the full suite of dispute resolution services. With the SICC Jurisdiction Model Clause, the same menu of services is now offered to users of the SCMA arbitration rules that are specially tailored for the maritime and international trade industries,” Chao Hick Tin SC, Chairman of the SCMA said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
