“Unsuccessful shareholder respondents to an LCIA arbitration commenced Court proceedings under s68 of the Arbitration Act alleging "serious irregularity" on the basis of bias, non-disclosure and other defects.

Given the weakness of the allegations, and the fact that security would have been awarded had the application continued, the Court ordered that the shareholders bear the claimants' costs of both the challenge and the security application on an indemnity basis.”
