Apr 8, 2021 06:00 PM Hong Kong SAR / 11:00 AM London

The webinar will consider when and in which ways terms may be implied into shipping contracts and “The principles of implied terms under English law”.

The panellists will address the legal aspects of cases implying terms in shipping contracts context which among others, will include a discussion on the Union Power and Res Cogitans. The implications of such decisions in a broader sense for various maritime contracts and resulting changes, if any, made to the existing standard forms.

The webinar will also seek to answer “do commercial practitioners need to know and appreciate the obligations flowing from the implied terms” and thus the parties may consider contracting in or out of such implied terms to the extent that such exclusion can legally be made.
