This article examines emerging guidance on whether arbitrators can ask AI for its opinion on legal questions and explores the boundaries between AI as a research tool and AI as a decision-maker.

Piercing The Corporate Veil In Swiss Enforcement Proceedings

Swiss law generally maintains a strict separation between a company's assets and those of its shareholders, but courts may exceptionally disregard this principle when it constitutes an abuse of rights. This analysis explores the legal framework and practical requirements for both piercing and reverse piercing the corporate veil in Switzerland, with particular emphasis on how these doctrines apply in debt enforcement and attachment proceedings.
