Dubai has consolidated its status as a top international arbitration center, achieving a top ranking in the GAR 100 Data Report. Dubai is ranked fifth in the world among the most used arbitration seats, as indicated by its increasing visibility in dispute resolution.
The Dubai International Arbitration Centre (DIAC) has been instrumental in this success, dealing with an increasing number of high-profile arbitration cases. With a contemporary legal framework, strategic position, and pro-business environment, Dubai continues to draw firms looking for effective dispute resolution mechanisms.
Experts attribute this ranking to Dubai’s commitment to legal excellence, a pro-arbitration judicial system, and its alignment with global best practices. The city has also benefited from increasing foreign investment, driving demand for reliable arbitration services.
With its fifth-place ranking, Dubai joins other major arbitration centers like London, Paris, and Singapore, reinforcing its status as a preferred arbitration hub for businesses worldwide.
