Is a securities arbitration decision binding in other jurisdictions?

No, a securities arbitration decision is not binding in other jurisdictions. Securities arbitration is a form of dispute resolution in which securities disputes are settled through an adversarial process managed by a private organization rather than the courts. In most cases, the outcome of the securities arbitration is binding, meaning that the parties involved in the dispute must abide by the decision rendered. However, a securities arbitration decision is only binding for the parties who agreed to the arbitration process and it only applies to the jurisdiction in which it was decided, which in this case is Washington. It is not binding in other jurisdictions. This means that even if the same parties were to bring the same dispute to a different jurisdiction, the decision from the first jurisdiction would not be binding on the parties in the second jurisdiction. Therefore, the parties would have to resolve the dispute in the new jurisdiction according to the laws of that jurisdiction.
