Confidentiality has long been central to arbitration’s appeal.

However, disputes involving environmental and public accountability concerns are increasing, particularly where state entities are involved.

The profession must preserve commercial privacy while acknowledging legitimate transparency expectations.

The balance requires careful judgment.

Before you sign that Contract to Sell, ask yourself: are you buying a unit, or financing a legal problem?

Protect your investment under PD 957, demand the License to Sell, confirm the property isn't mortgaged, and make sure every brochure promise is in writing and enforceable.

Southeast Asia expansion offers an enormous opportunity, but ASEAN is not one unified legal market. It's ten countries, each with distinct rules on foreign ownership, corporate structuring, investment protection, tax, and data localization.

A structure that's fully compliant in Singapore may be unenforceable in Vietnam, which is why cross-border business succeeds when ASEAN legal considerations are addressed from the very first term sheet.

Follow us for our country-by-country series.

What happens to your investment if the government raises taxes, cancels your permit, or nationalizes your assets after you've already committed?

Most foreign investors have significantly more legal protection than they realize under bilateral investment treaties that allow direct arbitration against sovereign states before international tribunals, bypassing local courts entirely.

These rights exist in the Philippines and across ASEAN. Most investors only discover them after the damage is done.

Investor Shield covers how to structure your investment to use these protections from the start.

International arbitration continues to be the preferred mechanism for cross-border disputes, but the conversation has matured.

Clients no longer ask whether arbitration works; they ask whether it works efficiently.

The latest global survey confirms sustained preference while also highlighting the need for disciplined case management and procedural proportionality.

Arbitration remains structurally strong, but performance standards are rising.

Multi-tier dispute resolution clauses require parties to complete negotiation and mediation before moving to arbitration, and skipping a required pre-arbitral step can derail an otherwise strong case.

Careful dispute resolution clause drafting protects your position in any commercial contract.

Not every infrastructure project should be a PPP, rigorous front-end analysis of public need, commercial viability, risk allocation, and value for money is what separates bankable PPP projects from costly failures.

Skipping project screening and prioritization is how governments end up with stalled construction, concessionaire bailouts, and assets that never serve the public.

Follow us for strategic insights on building a stronger PPP pipeline.
