Mahanakorn Partners Group (MPG) invites you to a focused executive briefing for owners, developers, contractors, lenders, and senior project leaders in the construction and infrastructure space. This session offers a practical, business-focused look at current market dynamics—with a focus on dispute resolution and insolvency—so you can protect margins, keep projects moving, and close issues efficiently.
This session offers a practical, business-focused introduction to international arbitration—with a spotlight on the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) and its role as Asia’s premier forum for resolving complex commercial disputes.
What to Expect
This is not a technical seminar for legal professionals. It’s a strategic conversation for arbitration end-users—leaders who shape contracts, joint ventures, and commercial relationships and navigate complex project dynamics. Our goal is to equip you with clear, usable tools to mitigate or resolve disputes in today’s evolving construction landscape.
Key Topics Include
✓ Sector Snapshot: Recent developments, pressure points, and opportunities in construction & infrastructure.
✓ Dispute Trends: Lessons from recent cases—delays, variations, payment defaults, termination, and enforcement.
✓ Multi-Tier Clauses (Negotiation → Mediation → Arbitration): Common drafting pitfalls and practical fixes.
✓ The new SIAC Restructuring & Insolvency Arbitration Protocol: What it is, how it interacts with arbitration, and implications for distressed projects and supply chains.
✓ Dispute Avoidance & Mitigation: Playbooks for early risk detection, notice discipline, evidence strategy, and settlement pathways
Program Highlights
The session begins at 15:30 and will unpack the latest developments shaping dispute resolution in the construction sector. Designed for decision-makers, it is interactive and case-driven, with practical guidance on clause design, risk allocation, and efficient resolution strategies.
