Zurich is engaged in the project to create a special chamber at the Commercial Court of the Canton of Zurich for international commercial disputes to be heard and decided in the English language. Given that Switzerland, including Zurich, is historically and still today a successful seat for international commercial arbitrations, the project to create a Zurich International Commercial Court raises the question, discussed in this article, whether or not such a court would compete with Zurich as a seat for international commercial arbitrations.
