Commercial Arbitration in Kosovo

Anjeze Gojani, LL.M

This article discusses the current outlook of commercial arbitration in Kosovo. In the first part of the article, the author highlights the major developments, which took place in the last decade, particularly in light of the arbitration legislation and the establishment of the two arbitral institutions. The author then provides a brief overview of the structure of the Arbitration Law, with a focus on the role of local courts, namely the extent of court intervention in arbitration proceedings. In her brief concluding remarks, the author emphasizes the capacities of the country – with its legal and procedural framework – to become a trusted arbitration venue in central and southeastern Europe.
