Özet:

 This study covers the implied choice of law and the role of the law applicable to the main contract in determining the law to be applied to the arbitration agreement. Recently, high courts in various legal systems have shown different tendencies regarding this issue. A decision made by the German Federal Court on March 9, 2023 is remarkable in this sense. In the decision, it was accepted that the law applicable to the arbitration agreement was implicitly chosen, and the English Supreme Court previously gave similar decisions. In some other legal systems, it is observed that the law applicable to the arbitration agreement is determined by making implied choice of law andor the most closely connected law evaluations. The fact that the English Law Commission has recently proposed a law change that eliminates the implied choice of law reveals that legal certainty should be emphasized in this regard.

 Bu çalışmada tahkim anlaşmasına uygulanacak hukukun belirlenmesi bakımından zımnî hukuk seçimi ve esas sözleşmeye uygulanacak hukukun rolü ele almaktadır. Son dönemde çeşitli hukuk düzenlerinde yüksek mahkemeler bu konuya ilişkin olarak birbirinden farklı eğilimler göstermiştir. Alman Federal Mahkemesi tarafından 9 Mart 2023 tarihinde verilen bir karar bu anlamda dikkat çekicidir. Kararda tahkim anlaşmasına uygulanacak hukukun zımnen seçildiği kabul edilmiş olup, benzer kararlar İngiliz Yüksek Mahkemesi tarafından da daha önce verilmiştir. Diğer bazı hukuk düzenlerinde de zımnî hukuk seçimi veveya en sıkı ilişkili hukuk değerlendirmeleri yapılarak tahkim anlaşmasına uygulanacak hukukun belirlendiği görülmektedir. Son dönemde İngiliz Hukuk Komisyonu tarafından zımnî hukuk seçimini bertaraf eden bir yasa değişikliği önerisi getirilmiş olması, bu konuda hukukî kesinliğin öne çıkarılması gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.
