The jury has perpetually been out on whether or not international arbitration requires a uniform system of ethics. The prospect of a uniform ethical framework is often rejected for being needless, and overriding the ‘consent based’ nature of the arbitration process. Homwever, by analysing the failings of the presently operating ethical mechanisms, and also the prospect of a ‘uniform code of ethics’, this article puts forth a Five Point Proposal’ Jor a new, and uniformly applicable system for ethical regulation in international arbitration. Unlike the proposition of a ‘niform code’, this article through its proposal does not aim to supersede, but in fact, to harmonize varions existing mechanisms thereby constructing an effective and achievable framework for ethics in international arbitration.
