SCC Arbitration Institute

The SCC Arbitrators' Council

Here you will find more information on members of the council 2025-2026.

The SCC Arbitrators’ Council is a body established in 2022 to foster our relations with arbitral practitioners worldwide. The members of the Arbitrators’ Council are SCC ambassadors, assisting us to raise awareness and promote international arbitration and to widen its network of users in each region. 

The members are recognized arbitration specialists in their respective jurisdictions and are elected by the SCC for a period of two years. The members facilitate our contacts with the users of our services in each region through events, meetings and publications. The Council members also act as the SCC’s advisors with respect to significant legal developments in their respective region. 

Once a year, the Council holds a general meeting in Stockholm to discuss its past and future activities. The Council and the SCC may also arrange additional meetings whenever required. 

The members of the Council work pro bono and are not involved into the SCC’s case management. 
For queries concerning the SCC Arbitrators’ Council please contact Jake Lowther, Specialist Counsel, at jake.l@sccarbitrationinstitute.com.
