Walder Wyss successfully represents a foundation beneficiary in an ICC arbitration
Walder Wyss successfully represented a beneficiary who had been wrongfully excluded from a Panamanian foundation in an ICC arbitration seated in Zurich.
The arbitral tribunal confirmed our client’s beneficiary status, declared her exclusion invalid and ordered the replacement of the foundation council and awarded her legal and other costs in full.
The outcome shows how international arbitration can safeguard beneficiaries’ rights and give effect to a founder’s intentions in cross-border foundation disputes.
Walder Wyss's team consisted of Michael Cartier (Partner, Arbitration) and Lukas Fellmann (Managing Associate, Arbitration).
