China has become the engine of the world economy, it is also a substantial consumer of arbitration. It now includes Hong Kong, which, in connection with its role as Asia's financial hub, has arisen as a major regional arbitration place. However the two systems, in Hong Kong and Mainland China, continue to diverge significantly: the former British colony has forged a legal and judicial framework that is significantly more arbitration-friendly in every respect, and particularly as far as the conditions of the validity of arbitration agreements, the conduct of the procedure and the judicial review of awards are concerned. The effect of the operation of the two separate systems in one single country is being felt with Hong Kong's pro-arbitration policy spreading through the Mainland, where the legislation, the courts and the rules of the major arbitration commissions, including CIETAC, are seeking to achieve additional consistency and openness.
La Chine est au cœur de l'économie mondiale ; elle est aussi une grande consommatrice d'arbitrage, en ce compris Hong Kong, dont le rôle, comme hub financier pour l'Asie, lui a permis d'émerger comme place régionale d'arbitrage. Le système de Hong Kong et celui de la Chine continentale continuent toutefois de diverger significativement : l'ancienne colonie britannique a développé une politique législative et jurisprudentielle largement plus favorable à l'arbitrage, dans tous ses aspects, notamment en ce qui concerne les conditions de validité de la convention d'arbitrage, le déroulement de la procédure et les voies de recours contre les sentences. Mais un rapprochement se dessine : la faveur hongkongaise semble se propager au continent, dont la législation, les tribunaux et les instituions, en particulier le CIETAC, sont en quête de toujours plus de cohérence et d'ouverture.
