Arbitration in Bangladesh

Arbitration in Bangladesh is a form of alternative dispute resolution governed by the Arbitration Act 2001. It provides a private and binding process where disputes are resolved by one or more arbitrators selected by the parties. The process is designed to be quicker and less formal than court litigation. Awards given by arbitrators are enforceable in the same manner as court judgments.
