General information

Founded:
1917
Authorized representative:
Annette Magnusson
Secretary General
The SCC is part of, but independent from, the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce and was established in 1917. The SCC has a Board and a Secretariat. The SCC provides efficient dispute resolution services.

The SCC was recognized in the 1970's by the United States and the Soviet Union as a neutral centre for the resolution of East West trade disputes, and the SCC has since expanded its services in international commercial arbitration. In recent years the number of cases filed with the SCC has increased considerably and the SCC has emerged as one of the most important and frequently used arbitration institutions worldwide.

Today the SCC caseload includes both domestic and international arbitration cases. About 50 per cent of the cases are international in the sense that they involve at least one non-Swedish party.
