"Arbitration and other alternative dispute resolution methods for disputes arising out of savings finance contract (In the context of consumer law)" questions the adequacy of existing legal remedies for resolving consumer disputes that have increased with the spread of savings finance contracts in Turkey and comprehensively analyses alternative dispute resolution methods.

Noting that consumption habits are changing rapidly in line with the rapidly changing and developing world order, the study emphasises that the spread of savings finance contracts in Turkey has also increased consumer disputes. The inability to effectively resolve these disputes within the existing legal system has increased the importance of alternative dispute resolution methods such as arbitration and mediation.

The study examines the practices in Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and European Union countries from a comparative law perspective and presents concrete, original solutions for Turkey. Bringing together the disciplines of law, economics, and consumer protection, this study includes theoretical evaluations as well as recommendations for practical applications.

The research stands out as an important resource, particularly in balancing the protection of consumer rights with the needs of the financial sector. The work serves as a valuable reference for legal professionals, academics, practitioners, and policymakers, and also acts as a guide for law students.
