Table of Contents

Selection under the Ordinary, Simplified and SCAP Rules

Under Ordinary Rules, in the case of Two Parties' Case, Each party shall nominate an arbitrator from among the persons who are listed on the Panel of TOMAC Arbitrators and the two arbitrators thus nominated shall, unless otherwise agreed, nominate a third arbitrator.
In the case of Multi-parties Case, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, where there are more than two parties to an arbitration, TOMAC shall appoint an arbitrator or arbitrators taking into account all parties' intention.
Under the SCAP Rules, a sole Arbitrator, who has no connection with either of the parties or the matter in dispute, should be appointed by TOMAC from among persons listed on "the Panel of Arbitrators" within 10 days from the day when the Respondent's Defense was filed or should have been filed, whichever is earlier. Under the Simplified Rules uneven number of arbitrators, usually a sole arbitrator, will be appointed within 10 days.
The arbitrator are selected based upon TOMAC's understanding of the nature of the arbitration in question. When there are an insufficient number of appropriate candidates, TOMAC will go outside the Panel to make their selection.
