Abstract

The article describes the issue of voluntary enforcement of arbitral awards. The question is whether voluntary enforcement is a legal structure or an attitude of the parties. It seems that voluntary fulfilment of the obligations created / sentenced in the award doesn’t need any specific rules and legal background. The party which is willing to pay or perform other obligations is always free to do it. Contrariwise, the party may use various tools to delay or even extinct the enforcement of the award. The other question is whether enforcement could be voluntary. Shouldn’t a term “fulfilment” be used instead? This leads to the conclusion that voluntary enforcement is a term that refers more to the will of the party to fulfil the obligations.
