CIArb has published the finalised version of its guideline on third-party funding, which aims to demystify the process for arbitration and other alternative dispute resolution practitioners

Dr Hasan Tahsin Azizagaoglu, co-chair of the guideline, said: ‘This guideline is unique in its commitment to full transparency, detailing the relevant questions to ask funders, explaining how they make decisions, and shedding light on how funding arrangements evolve behind the scenes.’

Philippa Charles, co-chair, said the guideline offered ‘information and insight about the process of funding and how a case involving a funded party may evolve’.
