ICC Dossiers Volume 8 and#8220;An arbitration is only as good as the arbitratorand#8221;. This frequently used maxim acts as an invitation to use arbitration but also as a scarecrow warning users off arbitration. Disputing parties are of course free to choose their arbitration tribunal, which allows them to begin an arbitration with a certain tranquillity. Once the arbitration has begun, should the parties become concerned if the arbitratorsand#8217; qualities do not meet their expectations? Unlike court judgments, arbitral awards are not subject to ordinary judicial remedies. Thus, a disastrous award may well remain disastrous for a party with no remedy available to right certain wrongs. This publication looks at the relationship between the qualities of the arbitrators and the arbitratorsand#8217; and#8220;work-productsand#8221;, namely the award and the arbitral process itself. There are proven methods for the parties to detach at least part of and#8220;theirand#8221; arbitration from the arbitrators. They may impose certain constraints on their intended arbitrators, be it in the agreement they conclude with the arbitrators or through the operation of the legal, customary, ethical or statutory rules that regulate the arbitratorsand#8217; activities, in what has now become a true profession. The parties may also consider having an institution oversee their arbitration, which will bring an additional measure of control over the exercise of the arbitratorsand#8217; and#8216;missionand#8217;. Finally, the picture would be incomplete without a discussion of the role played by certain substantive rules, such as the duty of confidentiality. The contributions in this Dossier VIII, Is Arbitration only As Good as the Arbitrator? Status, Powers and Role of the Arbitrator, tackle these complex issues from different vantage points, bringing to bear the knowledge and experience of some of todayand#8217;s leading experts in the field of arbitration. The contributors to this Dossier include: - Antonias Dimolitsa

- Julian D.M. Lew
- Pierre Mayer
