arbitral = arbitrate (semi-transparent) = arbitr + al
The adjective is clearly related to the arbitrat- family, but the stem is Latinate and the exact form is not fully predictable for a B1 learner.
Etymology
Arbitral comes from the Latin root arbiter, meaning 'judge' or 'decider', and you can see the same root in arbitrator. So arbitral describes decisions or the authority of a neutral person who settles a dispute 'outside the courts'.
