Chin Leng Lim appointed to arbitration lists of candidates by the European Commission

Date: 30 June 2022

In December 2020, the European Commission called for applications in connection with the renewal of the pool of arbitrators and the separate pool of trade and sustainable development (TSD) experts for dispute settlement panels under trade agreements to which the EU is a party. A selection panel of experienced international judges and academics examined the candidates to confirm their suitability for appointment.

Chin Lim has been appointed to the ‘List of Candidates Suitable for Appointment as Chairpersons for Arbitrations’. Chin Lim is one of four members of the UK Bar to be appointed to this list.

The Commission will draw on this list to make proposals for the appointment of chairpersons for arbitrations and arbitrators in a specific case or for pre-agreed lists (rosters) under the relevant bilateral agreements with third countries.
