Qatar is likely to see a spike in legal disputes as contractors pitch for a slice of its $100bn infrastructure plan ahead of the 2022 World Cup, the CEO of the newly-opened Qatar Civil and Commercial Court said.
The surge in construction deals will go hand-in-hand with an increase in commercial disputes due to the volume of work on offer, said CEO Robert Musgrove.
“Do not underestimate the importance of the success of the 2022 bid for the World Cup,” he said. “When there’s such incredible growth and commercial activity, there’s going to be disputes, and I very much see the court offering a service, if the companies write us into the contract.”
