The UAE legal landscape has witnessed a long promised change following the enactment of the UAE Arbitration Law (Federal Law No.6/2018). However, two years since the promulgation of the Law, a question remains whether the UAE’s first stand-alone law on arbitration has brought any significant impact on the growth of arbitration and the supervisory role of the UAE Courts. Join Kennedys, in partnership with LexisNexis Middle East, on 20 October from 12PM to 1PM (UAE time) for a webinar that will put the matter to the test, providing a comparative analysis of the recent onshore and offshore UAE Court decisions, covering issues of capacity, jurisdiction, arbitrability, recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards.

The UAE Cabinet of Ministers has issued Cabinet Resolution No. 57 of 2020 (the “amended ES Regulations”) along with updated Guidance clarifying the amended ES which repeals and replaces the original ES Regulations. The New Guidance has brought many changes and provided several clarifications on the ESR Requirements for entities in the UAE. Join LexisNexis Middle East, in collaboration with MBG Corporate Services, for a free webinar to learn more about the recent changes announced in the amended Economic Substance Regulations.
