Is a securities arbitration decision binding on the parties beyond the dispute at issue?

The short answer to this question is generally no. In North Carolina, a securities arbitration decision is not binding on the parties beyond the dispute at issue. This means, essentially, that the decision does not create a legal precedent that can be followed in future disputes. Rather, securities arbitration decisions are only binding on the parties to the dispute at hand. Specifically, the decision is binding on the parties to the agreement to use securities arbitration to resolve their dispute. That means that the decision is binding within the scope of the issue in question, and that the parties must follow the decision as it relates to the dispute. The decision may also be used to influence the outcome of future disputes. By reviewing the decisions made in past disputes, parties may gain insight into how similar disputes may be resolved. This may help them to more effectively advocate for their position, as well as reach a more favorable resolution. However, beyond this, the decision will not be binding on the parties. The decision will not create a legal precedent, nor will it create any sort of obligation on either party to abide by the decision in future disputes. Ultimately, it is up to the parties to decide whether they will use the decision to inform their strategy and resolve their issue or not.
