Submission Agreement: The Submission Agreement lists the parties in the arbitration case and confirms that FINRA will administer it. It also establishes that, if the case ends with a hearing, the parties all agree to abide by the arbitrators' decisions.
We noted that arbitration clauses are made before any dispute arises. Submission agreements, however, are agreements to arbitrate made after the dispute has arisen.
A submission agreement is a contract between two parties that establishes the use of arbitration to settle any disputes that may arise between them. This type of contract is used when the contract parties have an agreement that does not already provide arbitration as an option for dispute resolution.
Promissory Obligation: One party must make a clear promise that forms the basis of the collateral agreement. Intent to Bind Legally: The parties must demonstrate intent to create a legally binding relationship. Mutual Consideration: The collateral agreement must involve a mutual exchange of value or benefits.
