This page provides an overview of NAI appointments in proceedings administered by the NAI.
Most appointments are made on the recommendation of the parties. Appointments may also be made following a proposal by the NAI (list procedure) or directly by the NAI. The latter occurs primarily in emergency proceedings. In the case of direct appointments by the NAI or appointments via the list procedure, the NAI makes use of the public NAI List of Arbitrators and the NAI Mediator Pool. If the necessary expertise cannot be found via these lists, the NAI will look for a suitable candidate outside the lists. The NAI also has a good network for this purpose.
Prior to the appointment of an arbitrator, binding advisor or mediator in a specific case, the candidate must make a declaration confirming his or her independence, impartiality and availability.
Below is an overview of appointments of arbitrators, binding advisors and mediators in NAI cases from 1 January 2020 onwards.
