| dc.description.sponsorship | International commercial arbitration is a fast emerging area of law that is undoubtedly lucrative. Thus it follows that a country should strive to make itself attractive for parties to an international commercial arbitration. One of the ways of ensuring this is by having a robust, independent, well training and competent judiciary that is capable of dealing with applications for recognition and enforcement of international commercial arbitration awards. This paper critiques the efficiency of the Kenyan judiciary’s handling of applications for enforcement of international commercial arbitration awards. It argues that the Kenyan judiciary has made significant steps in having well trained and experienced judicial staff to deal with such applications. However, much still remains to be done as there is a huge backlog of cases and incidences of inefficiency and corruption are a major hindrance. The paper calls for the employment and training of more judicial officers on international commercial arbitration. | en_US |
