SCC Express

13 сентября 2023
SCC Express - это эффективный и оперативный механизм разрешения споров для сторон, стремящихся к быстрому урегулированию своих конфликтов. Он особенно подходит для споров, когда две договаривающиеся стороны дорожат хорошими деловыми отношениями, ценят возможность быстро работать над совместным проектом и ищут своевременный и экономически эффективный процесс разрешения споров. Типовая оговорка для SCC Express является отличным вариантом для включения в контракт, когда компании предвидят, что быстрое разрешение потенциального спора имеет первостепенное значение.

Существует три различных набора типовых оговорок для SCC Express:

    - Ограниченный вариант для споров, касающихся толкования или применения конкретных положений договора/контрактов  
    - Расширенный вариант для всех споров, возникающих в связи с контрактом, включая арбитражную оговорку
    - Эскалационная оговорка, в которой SCC Express является одним из этапов разрешения споров, вытекающих из договора или договорного положения/ов.

Регламент SCC Express вступил в силу в 2021 году. Первый запрос в SCC Express был подан в июне 2023 года..
