New centre to resolve African commercial disputes

The Cape Chamber of
Commerce is opening an
African Commercial Dispute
Settlement Centre.
According to the chamber,
the Centre will give
organisations across the
Continent the chance to make
use of alternative forms of
dispute resolution (primarily
mediation and arbitration) to
resolve disputes quickly and
cost-effectively making use
of a professional, efficient
service and circumventing the
burden of litigation.
The Centre is a partnership
between the Cape Chamber
of Commerce, the Africa
Centre for Dispute Settlement
at Stellenbosch University
Business School and
Equillore, a provider of
commercial dispute settlement
services.
