<![CDATA[This paper examines the application of the confidentiality principle in arbitration and its implications for legal transparency. Arbitration, as an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, emphasizes efficiency, procedural flexibility, and the protection of parties’ interests, with confidentiality serving to safeguard sensitive information, trade secrets, and corporate strategies. Using a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach, data were collected through literature studies, including legislation, arbitration rules, awards, and academic sources. The research was conducted systematically in several stages: identification of issues, collection of secondary data, qualitative analysis through thematic coding, and formulation of conclusions and recommendations. The findings indicate that while confidentiality ensures secure dispute resolution and protects business interests, it can hinder transparency, limit public access to legal information, and create uncertainty for third parties. Legal mechanisms, such as judicial oversight and anonymized award publications, alongside digital security measures, are essential to balance confidentiality and transparency. These approaches contribute to the development of consistent, accountable, and modern arbitration practices.]]>
