The Supreme Court held that, while the arbitral award in question could be challenged at the Supreme Court, it could <em>de facto<\/em> not be reviewed by the Supreme Court due to the complete lack of information in the decision itself. The fact that the award does not contain any reasoning does not make it void given that both the procedure as well as the form and content of an arbitral award are primarily subject to party autonomy under the Swiss <em>lex arbitri<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The decision of the Supreme Court highlights the importance of an informed decision about the procedural rules and provisions that shall apply on the arbitration: If the parties agree on procedural rules or provisions which foresee or have the consequence that the award is rendered only orally or in writing \u2013 but without any reasoning \u2013 the award can <em>de facto<\/em> not be annulled by the Supreme Court, except under very special circumstances. Hence, to put it simple: You better know what you are bargaining for in the arbitration clause \u2013 if not, you may be surprised by severe consequences!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read the full newsletter: <a class=\"file-link\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thouvenin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-28-Arbitration-Newsletter.pdf\">2023-08-28-Arbitration-Newsletter.pdf <span class=\"file-info\">(pdf 5 MB)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arbitration Newsletter Switzerland: No Reasoning in the Award \u2013 no Review of the Award!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":5301,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9031","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\r\n<title>Arbitration Newsletter Switzerland: No Reasoning in the Award \u2013 no Review of the Award!
