Synopsis:
International Commercial Courts are an institutional innovation in transnational adjudication established to resolve private and commercial law disputes. Some of these courts are created within free financial zones as the default forum for all disputes arising out of the zone. In the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC), the Regulatory Tribunal hears complaints raised by individuals and corporate bodies against decisions of the QFC regulators. Similar functions are undertaken by courts in other zones.
Through its supervisory arbitrational jurisdiction under Law No 2 of 2017 issuing the Arbitration Law in Civil and Commercial Matters, parties can elect the QICDRC as the “Competent Court” of arbitration to perform various functions in relation to interim measures, enforcement of awards and appeals.
