Arbitration is a long-standing alternative to court-based litigation. For example, the first institute for arbitration in Denmark was set up in Copenhagen in 1894. The process has a number of variant forms but, in essence, nominated third-parties (arbitrators) can make decisions which are binding on the parties to a dispute. Arbitration procedures can range between the informal and more rule-based systems that are similar to court procedures. Generally, arbitration is seen as providing such benefits as confidentiality, flexibility, speed and relative cheapness.
