Overview
Ciarb is delighted to host a Let’s Discuss Session ahead of the launch of its new Guideline on Third-Party Funding (TPF), a pivotal resource for navigating the evolving landscape of dispute resolution financing. Third-party funding has become an increasingly prominent feature of arbitration and ADR, offering parties access to justice by providing financial resources to pursue their claims. However, it also introduces unique challenges, including transparency, disclosure, and ethical considerations.
This Let’s Discuss Session will provide members of TPF guideline drafting group with an opportunity to interact with other Ciarb members and experts to discuss different aspects of the new forthcoming TPF guideline which is out for public comment. This interactive session will help inform any final edits or revisions that are needed prior to the final publication and launch of the TPF guideline.
Moderators: Mercy McBrayer FCIArb, Julian Chamberlayne, Ayse Yazir, Christopher Bloch, Dr Hasan Tahsin Azizagaoglu, Viren Mascarenhas.

Throughout the year we will be running a series of virtual events, hosted by members for members. These will get under the skin of the things that really matter in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) around the world and talk about the issues that matter to you. They will be a great opportunity to learn, discuss and meet new connections.
It’s up to you, our members to decide, what topics should be discusses. Join us for the Let’s Discuss sessions and influence the conversation with your ideas, learn from fellow ADR professionals and shape the future discussion around topics that matter to you. You can also email us with topic proposals at events@ciarb.org.
We will confirm events as we go through the year to ensure they are always based on the most relevant issues of the moment.
Let's Discuss events are not recorded and therefore not available on demand, so make sure you join us live for discussion, peer-to-peer learning and networking.
