The ICC Commission on Arbitration is the ICC's rule-making and research body for dispute resolution services and constitutes a unique think tank on international dispute resolution. The Commission drafts and revises the various ICC rules for dispute resolution, including the ICC Rules of Arbitration, the ICC ADR Rules, the ICC Rules for Expertise and the ICC Dispute Board Rules. It also produces reports and guidelines on legal, procedural and practical aspects of dispute resolution. In its research capacity, it proposes new policies aimed at ensuring efficient and cost-effective dispute resolution, and provides useful resources for the conduct of dispute resolution. The Commission's products are published regularly online, in the ICC International Court of Arbitration Bulletin and as individual booklets.

The Commission brings together experts in the field of international dispute resolution from all over the globe and from numerous jurisdictions. It currently has over 600 members from more than ninety countries. The Commission holds two plenary sessions each year, at which proposed rules and other products are discussed, debated and voted upon. Between these sessions, the Commission's work is often carried out in smaller task forces.

The Commission aims to:

- Promote on a worldwide scale the settlement of international disputes by means of arbitration, mediation, expertise, dispute boards and other forms of dispute resolution.

- Provide guidance on a range of topics of current relevance to the world of international dispute resolution, with a view to improving dispute resolution services.

- Create a link among arbitrators, counsel and users to enable ICC dispute resolution to respond effectively to users' needs.

Chairman of the Commission: Peter Wolrich

Secretary to the Commission: Hélène van Lith

Assistant to the Secretary: Claudia Pansa
