Abstract

Arbitration, as an alternate method of solving disputes, is greatly reliant on its capacity to offer an efficient procedure, in terms of costs involved and time consumed to reach a decision on parties’ disputes. Taking of evidence in a cost and time effective manner is, therefore, a vital issue, one that the parties and the arbitral tribunal consider with the utmost care; it is the screen that reflects the image that the parties are trying to credit as being the truth. Expert witnesses are often called upon to present a professional view on technical or economic aspects that cannot be decided by the arbitral tribunal without proper expert information. The object of this study is to offer a comparative analysis of the choices that the parties and the arbitral tribunal have to make in taking expert evidence as well as the implications of these choices.
