Singapore Arbitration Reform: SIDRA’s recommendations and the Ministry of Law Consultation

Gustavo Moser curated and oversaw an analysis for LexisNexis Arbitration UK, authored by Ervin Tan, Advocate and Solicitor and Director at Adroit Law LLC, on the Singapore International Dispute Resolution Academy’s (SIDRA) recommendations for reforming Singapore’s International Arbitration Act 1994 as part of a Ministry of Law consultation. The piece examines proposed measures to enhance efficiency, certainty and party autonomy – such as an opt-in right of appeal on points of law, codifying the governing law of the arbitration agreements, and judicial review of jurisdictional rulings – while assessing how these reforms align with global trends yet depart from English law in key respects.
