INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION 1/3LY
DUNCAN BAGSHAW
REGISTRAR, LCIA-MIAC ARBITRATION CENTRE
Duncan practised in the fields of commercial and property litigation and arbitration for eight years until 2012 when he was appointed as the first Registrar of the LCIA-MIAC Arbitration Centre. LCIA-MIAC is an independent arbitral institution based in Mauritius. It receives support from the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), including administrative support and knowledge of arbitrators. LCIA-MIAC offers all the same services as the LCIA, with the same commitment to efficiency and quality of service, at competitive rates of administrative fees. The LCIA Court, which is the supervisory body for arbitrations under the LCIA Rules, performs the same functions for LCIA-MIAC under its own rules. In his role as Registrar of LCIA-MIAC, Duncan is responsible for the administration of cases and for developing and promoting LCIA-MIAC. As an arbitral institution based in Africa (Mauritius is a member of the AU and of the Common Market of Eastern and Southern Africa) LCIA-MIAC is particularly suitable for disputes involving African parties and projects. Duncan has travelled extensively in Africa to meet governments, lawyers and companies, and has spoken and written extensively on arbitration in Mauritius, Africa, Europe and Asia. He has also assisted with the continued development of arbitration law in Mauritius, including work on the drafting of amendments to the International Arbitration Act 2008 and Court Rules for international arbitration-related proceedings.
