本會吳永乾理事長本(112)年4月19日下午在經濟部國際貿易局舉辦的「國際貿易糾紛判例解析」研討會致詞表示，國際貿易糾紛經常為跨國糾紛，如依訴訟程序將面臨訴訟費用高昂、曠時費日及「愛國裁判」的問題，故世界各國大都提倡利用仲裁解決糾紛，除避免上述問題，仲裁程序及適用法律、規則等，當事人有相當程度的參與，較值得信賴。
On April, 2023, CAA Chairman Dr. Joe Y. C. Wu delivered the opening remarks at the Seminar "Legal Precedents in International Trade Dispute" hosted by the Bureau of Foreign Trade, Ministry of Economic Affairs. He pointed out that in the event of international trade disputes, involving cross-border elements, relying on domestic courts of foreign countries can be both costly and time-consuming, leading to possible unfair results. In contrast, choosing to settle disputes through arbitration is more advantageous due to greater reliability, resulting from reasonable participation by both parties in the choice of law and procedures.
  
吳理事長也表示，本會辦理國際貿易、外人投資、臺灣基礎公共建設等仲裁案件經驗豐富，一向為當事人首選仲裁機構。臺灣為出口導向的國家，國際貿易局本於貿易法第26條的規定及國際趨勢，連續三年舉辦此研討會，積極推動以仲裁解決國際貿易糾紛，相當盡責。
Chairman Wu also highlighted that CAA has extensive experience in managing arbitration cases related to international trade, foreign investment and public construction, and is the most preferred arbitral institution in Taiwan. Given Taiwan's export-oriented economy and to comply with Article 26 of the Foreign Trade Act, the Bureau of International Trade is commendable for hosting this seminar for three consecutive years to promote arbitration for resolving international trade disputes.
 
該研討會除了針對國際貿易糾紛常見案例、如何申請呆帳調查及如何規避國際貿易風險(信用調查、融資等)由專家作經驗分享外，本會仲裁人郭厚志律師也以「國際貿易紛爭解決機制—以仲裁為中心」為題，說明跨國訴訟應注意事項及案例分享，並介紹國際間主要仲裁機構。
In addition to discussing common cases of international trade disputes, the seminar covered topics such as bad debt investigation, avoidance of international trade risks (credit investigation, financing, etc.), and the dos and don'ts in cross-border litigation with actual cases. CAA arbitrator, Mr. Hou-Chih Kuo, also addressed the audience on "International Trade Dispute Resolution" and introduced some of the main international arbitral institutions. CAA remains to promote the use of arbitration as a preferred means of resolving international trade disputes and will continue to work with relevant organizations and stakeholders to support this goal.
