Abstract

The aim of the research is to examine, through bibliographic review and quantitative analysis, the factual and legal arguments
concerning the validity and effectiveness of asymmetric arbitration clauses (AACs). By enabling one of the disputing parties to unilaterally select the state or arbitral jurisdiction, asymmetric clauses accentuate relevant divergences on the scope of equal treatment and call into question the extent to which advantages in the procedural sphere are translated into material benefits in the arbitration award. In this sense, the research will address the main doctrinal and jurisprudential opinions on the topic, establishing points of dialogue with the principles and institutes of Competition Law.
