International Commercial Arbitration and the Commercial Agency Directive

The book delves into the complex relationship between EU law and international commercial arbitration, highlighting the conflicts arising from the Commercial Agents Directive's indemnity and compensation provisions. It proposes a comprehensive framework for reviewing arbitration agreements and awards to address these tensions. Through comparative legal analysis of German, Belgian, French, and English systems, alongside assessments of arbitral practices and economic analyses, it aims to create a more effective approach to resolving the challenges at the intersection of public and private law.
