The LCIA is the oldest of all major arbitral institutions that provides international dispute resolution services. The LCIA has embodied the ideals that underlie the arbitral alternative and set its face against undue delay, soaring cost, complexity, and acrimony.

Underscoring the institution's international nature, and over 80% of parties in LCIA cases today are not of English nationality.
