Lipman Karas Principal Julia Dreosti hosted a panel on the intersection between insolvency and arbitration for Australian Arbitration Week 2020. The panel, which included Oliver Gayner (Omni Bridgeway), Chris Hill (PwC), Nick Gallus (Lipman Karas) and Cara North (Lipman Karas), considered the opportunities presented for arbitration in an insolvency context, which was particularly timely given the backdrop of the global pandemic and recent trade tensions with China. The panel explored topics such as the arbitrability of insolvency disputes, competing forum issues, investment treaty claims arising from insolvency legislation, third-party funding and enforcement issues.
