The arbitration laws of individual states and nations plays a significant role in the application and execution of arbitral agreements between international commercial parties. Choice of location for the arbitration will affect its course by determining the law governing such proceedings. US and other laws contain restrictions and provisions from which the parties to arbitration may not depart, but tend to encourage the use of arbitration and to discourage judicial interference.
