The Court confirmed a nondomestic award rendered in the United States, finding – in the absence of the defendant – that none of the seven exclusive defenses to confirmation of the award under the New York Convention or the four reasons to vacate an award under the Federal Arbitration Act applied. Moreover, there was no arguable basis for finding that the decision of the arbitrators was in manifest disregard of the law.
