“The decade-long transformation of all aspects of the Saudi ADR (Alternate Dispute Resolution) practice, profession and industry outlined in this article has been profound, comprehensive and likely to endure. Importantly the Saudi judiciary has a solid record of skilfully and consistently adjudicating matters related to arbitration; and providing the judicial support required for a consistent record of successful enforcement of local and foreign arbitral awards. With its now well established local, regional and international reputation as a first-rate ADR institution, the SCCA benefits from operating in an arbitration-friendly jurisdiction – reflected in its rapidly increasing caseloads.”
