Art. 5
IV. Choice of forum
1 In matters involving an economic interest, the parties may agree on the court that will have to decide any existing or future dispute arising from a specific legal relationship. The agreement may be done in writing, by telegram, telex, telefax or any other means of communication allowing it to be evidenced by text. Unless otherwise agreed, the choice of forum is exclusive.
2 The choice of forum has no effect if it results in abusively depriving a party from the protection granted to it by a forum provided by Swiss law.
3 The chosen court may not decline jurisdiction:
a.
if a party is domiciled or has its habitual residence or an establishment in the canton of the chosen court; or
b.
if, pursuant to this Act, Swiss law is applicable to the dispute.
