This is the third revised edition of what has become and was described by the English Court of Appeal in C v D as the "standard work" on Bermuda Form excess insurance policies. It is unusual in that it includes a clause requiring disputes to be arbitrated under English procedural rules in London but subject to New York substantive law. The Form, first used in the 1980s, covers liabilities for catastrophes such as serious explosions or mass tort litigation and is now widely used by insurance companies.
In addition, since the awards of arbitrators are confidential and are not subject to the scrutiny of the courts, there is no body of precedent to which professionals can turn in order to understand This calls for a rare mix of knowledge and experience on the part of the lawyers involved, each of whom is required to confront the many differences between English and US law and legal culture.
