Cypriot lawyer Stavros Pavlou has been appointed as a new member of the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). The appointment, proposed by the ICC Cyprus National Committee and confirmed by the ICC World Council, highlights Pavlou's expertise in cross-border corporate and commercial transactions. The ICC International Court of Arbitration, based in Paris, is a leading institution for resolving international commercial disputes.

Pavlou is actively involved with the ICC Cyprus National Committee and serves as a nominated representative on the ICC Commission on Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution. He also holds memberships in various arbitration bodies, including the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators and the Asian Institute of Alternative Dispute Resolution. The ICC Cyprus National Committee president, Phidias Pilides, described the appointment as recognition of Pavlou's significant contributions to arbitration.

This development also underscores the efforts to position Cyprus as a hub for international arbitration, supporting the local business community through efficient dispute resolution mechanisms. The move is expected to enhance Cyprus' role in global commercial arbitration.
