2025 International Arbitration Survey: ‘The Path Forward: Realities and Opportunities in Arbitration’

We are once again pleased to partner with global law firm White & Case LLP to launch our 2025 International Arbitration Survey: ‘The Path Forward: Realities and Opportunities in Arbitration’.

Queen Mary University of London and White and Case logos

This is the fourteenth major empirical International Arbitration Survey conducted by the School of International Arbitration, Queen Mary University of London. 

The Survey considers both current practices and future opportunities for the system of international arbitration and key aspects of the arbitral process, as experienced by its users. The Survey aims to gather the views of the international arbitration community as a whole, and not just the views of any particular group within it. All stakeholders, therefore, are invited to share their perspectives, regardless of whether their experience with international arbitration is based on activities as a private practitioner, in-house counsel, arbitrator, academic, or through work for an arbitral institution.

Take the Survey

Take the Survey via the online form

We appreciate that not all questions are relevant to all respondents. Please answer as many questions as you can, and feel free to leave blank those you cannot. The questionnaire should take approximately 20 minutes to complete. The closing date for responses is Tuesday 10 December 2024.

If you face difficulties accessing the online Survey, wish to complete the questionnaire in PDF format or need assistance filling out the questionnaire, please contact Dr Thomas Lehmann.

Interviews

In addition to the questionnaire phase of the Survey, we will conduct individual interviews with a selection of volunteers from October to December 2024. To participate in this phase, please agree to an interview in the second-to-last questionnaire question.

Confidentiality

Your participation in this questionnaire will be kept fully confidential. Your name and the name of your organisation will not appear on any materials connected with the Survey. The information gathered by the questionnaire as well as at the qualitative stage of the Survey will be stored securely by Queen Mary University of London only and used only for the purposes of the current Survey, any subsequent surveys and research outputs.
