The Beijing
Arbitration Commission ( "BAC" ) is a permanent
organization that provides a forum for the efficient and
impartial arbitration of disputes associated with contractual
and other property rights among citizens, legal persons
and other organizations.
The BAC was established on September 28, 1995, upon approval
by the Beijing People's Government in accordance with
the Arbitration Law of the People's Republic of China.

of the BAC.
In accordance with the Arbitration Law, the BAC has assembled
more than 200 arbitrators from the legal, economic trade
and high-tech sectors, all of whom are highly regarded
in their respective fields and maintain high ethical standards.The
BAC's list of arbitrators has been compiled and is organized
