The German Arbitration Institute (DIS) is Germany’s leading institution for alternative dispute resolution and arbitration. With roots in the 1920s, the DIS has a long tradition of administering commercial disputes between companies, having successfully administered thousands of arbitrations. The 2018 DIS Arbitration Rules are equally suitable for companies of all sizes and industries, and for arbitrations seated in Germany and abroad. The Rules have been revised to account for developments in domestic and international arbitration as well as practical experience with the previous version of the rules. The Rules were developed and drafted by leading German and international arbitration experts as well as representatives from companies and academia with many years of experience in domestic and international arbitration.
The Rules provide a well-structured procedure and institutional framework to ensure that arbitrations are conducted with integrity, efficiency, and fairness. Parties around the world resorting to a DIS arbitration benefit from the Institute’s administrative know-how, its many years of experience, and its specialized expertise.
The DIS recognizes that companies are distracted by disputes and litigation matters. That is why the 2018 DIS Arbitration Rules place a particular focus on early dispute resolution as well as on efficiency and speed. The new Rules continue to emphasize a German and continental European element that distinguishes them from other institutional rules: the promotion of amicable settlements, provided all parties agree thereto. This feature also inspires the Dispute Management Rules, which the DIS has offered since 2010. In 2018, these rules were significantly streamlined and included in Annex 6 to the DIS Arbitration Rules.
The DIS Arbitration Rules provide a solid procedural framework allowing parties to adapt the proceedings to their particular needs. Article 27 of the 2018 DIS Rules calls for the arbitral tribunal to conduct an early case management conference with the parties in order to develop a plan that is tailored to resolve the specific dispute in a time- and cost-efficient manner.
In addition to the 2018 Arbitration Rules, the DIS offers rules for the entire spectrum of alternative dispute resolution proceedings: conciliation, mediation, expertise, expert determination, and adjudication. The DIS Sports Arbitration Rules are specifically available for sportsrelated disputes. The DIS thus services the entire breadth of alternative dispute resolution.
