Mauritius International Arbitration Centre (MIAC)

The Mauritius International Arbitration Centre (or MIAC) is an independent arbitration centre, bringing the highest level of dispute resolution services to the international community. MIAC is supported by a Secretariat, a Board of Directors and an Advisory Board. MIAC draws on the established legal framework for international arbitration in Mauritius including the Mauritian International Arbitration Act, and the Permanent Court of Arbitration's role thereunder. The Government of Mauritius has expressed its full support for MIAC as part of its overall policy of establishing Mauritius as a dispute settlement hub and a state-of-the art international arbitral seat for Africa and beyond. MIAC benefits from financial support from the Government of Mauritius, but under a strict principle of non-interference in MIAC's administration.
