TRX South Korea drops further challenge to Elliott arbitration award
Hedgeweek reports, citing Global Arbitration Review, that South Korea will not pursue a further legal challenge against an arbitration award in favour of Elliott Associates over the 2015 Samsung C&T merger. The dispute centred on Elliott's opposition to the merger between Samsung C&T and Cheil Industries, which the fund argued was influenced by government interference that damaged its investment, and resulted in an international arbitration award against South Korea.
