Dispute resolution is no longer just a legal matter, it has become a strategic business issue.   In an interview with Dagens Juridik, SCC Specialist Counsel Jake Lowther shares his perspective on the shifting landscape of commercial dispute resolution.   Among the key themes he covers:    • Dispute resolution is moving closer to the boardroom.
