In their Massachusetts Reinsurance Bar Association newsletter article, "First Circuit Highlights The Importance of Carefully Crafted Arbitration Clauses," they note that, "If the reinsurance contract's broad grant of authority is unaccompanied by additional language addressing the breadth of the proceeding, parties could find themselves litigating a procedural sideshow rather than the merits of their case."
