Abstract:
The Swiss Federal Tribunal has recently rendered three decisions addressing the issue of res judicata in the context of international arbitration, opening the door to possible developments of the doctrine of res judicata as applied in international arbitrations seated in Switzerland. This article elaborates on the Swiss Federal Tribunal's latest decisions on the topic and endeavors to challenge some of the core principles of the doctrine of res judicata as developed in the Swiss practice. The authors propose that arbitral tribunals apply the provisions of the lex arbitri (instead of Article II

Abstract:
This article examines the civil law principle of iura novit curia and its relationship with the parties' right to be heard in international arbitration, with a particular focus on recent Swiss case law. The principle of iura novit curia empowers arbitral tribunals in an arbitration seated in Switzerland to apply the law ex officio, without being limited to the legal arguments pleaded by the parties. The parties do not have a specifically protected right to be heard on the arbitral tribunal's legal assessment unless the tribunal intends to base its decision on a rule of law or legal concept the

Abstract:
Parties in international arbitrations often raise res judicata challenges before arbitral tribunals and courts. But neither parties nor the tribunals or courts have been clear as to whether these challenges affect the admissibility of a claim or the tribunal's jurisdiction. A close analysis of arbitral awards and court decisions that address res judicata challenges reveals, however, that the question need not be as complicated as parties, tribunals, and courts have made it.

Is the judicial assistance intended for the benefit of ‘foreign or international tribunals’ under 28 USC § 1782 available for private arbitral tribunals?

This strained reading of section 1782 appears to have been reached to achieve policy objectives, not through rigorous analysis of the statutory provision itself.

Keeping in line with traditional conceptions of commercial arbitration, the Hague Rules are grounded in party consent to arbitrate.

In exercising these powers, an investor-State tribunal goes beyond the role traditionally assigned to it—i.e. to award damages for prejudice caused by a treaty breach—and dictates sovereign conduct.

Abstract:
The practice of arbitral tribunals is notably consistent with respect to articulating the fundamental values which need to be balanced in deciding whether to bifurcate preliminary objections with respect to jurisdiction or admissibility. Moreover, there is substantial consensus on the issues or factors which ought to be evaluated by arbitral tribunals exercising their discretion under the relevant rules. What the decisions appear to lack, however, is rigorous evaluation of the likely time and costs effects of the decision to bifurcate or not. Ensuring that the parties produce information relev

This article critiques the arbitral tribunal’s decision in Glamis Gold, Ltd. v. The United States of America on the basis of its interpretation of the fair and equitable treatment standard (FET) owed by state parties to foreign investors under NAFTA article 1105. Part I outlines the post-WWII development of the FET standard in relation to the restrictive, customary international law of minimum standard of treatment (MST). The author traces the expansive treatment of the FET standard by tribunals in both bilateral investment treaty and NAFTA disputes. Despite a binding Free Trade Commission Not

Abstract:
The adoption by the International Law Commission (ILC) in 2001 of its articles on state responsibility is an achievement that presents a paradox. This essay is about the form and authority of the articles, and the paradox that they could have more influence as an ILC text than as a multilateral treaty. The essay addresses the questions of the appropriate authority to be given an ILC text, why undue influence may be attributed to an ILC text (particularly by arbitral tribunals), and how an arbitral tribunal should approach interpreting and applying the articles on state responsibility.

Over the past few years there have been many allegations that states abuse their police powers to escape their international obligations before foreign investors. In particular, it has been alleged that states initiate criminal proceedings in order to escape payment of compensation for expropriation, hamper arbitral hearings or punish foreign investors. This article attempts to find a solution to the problem of the abuse of police powers. Such a study is important, because the abuse of police powers can damage the whole international framework for protecting foreign investments. The findings f

Abstract:
Abstract The problem with regard to the excess of power doctrine, one of the most controversial issues in the procedure of international courts and tribunals, was invoked in certain recent cases, such as the Bosnian Genocide case and the South China Sea case. To solve this problem, it is necessary to examine two relevant legal notions: the principle of competence-competence; and the principle of res judicata. First, the principle of competence-competence has been regarded as a relative power of arbitral tribunals in the sense that it is limited by the application of the rules of treaty interpr

And yet, despite the common perception of its neutrality as a forum for the non-political resolution of disputes, the scope of subject matters that fall within the purview of arbitral control and the utilization of political means by states a

This is important in the light of some illegal practices of some disputants who may utilize such awards to cover such practices.

AbstractRecent years have seen a trend towards increasing transparency in international investment arbitration. This trend has been reflected in arbitral practice and in the amendments to the ICSID Arbitration Rules in 2006, which now expressly allow for participation of non-disputing parties as amicus curiae. Still more problematic, however, is the publication of arbitral documents, which has recently been controversial in Biwater Gauff v. Tanzania.

Abstract:
An appeal to another arbitral body within an arbitration proceeding is unusual and, relative to the number of arbitration disputes, exceptional. This phenomenon is therefore barely regulated by law, rarely considered by arbitration rules and only ever mentioned incidentally at most by scholars. As a result, the most important questions relating to internal appeals, as far as they can be identified, remain largely unanswered. It seems that two legal issues present themselves: (1) which rules govern the arbitral appeal proceedings in the absence of any agreement on this, for example, as regards

The absence of a definition of “investment” in the ICSID Convention has led several arbitral tribunals to develop a narrow reading of this term. The most recent notable example of such conservative interpretation is a decision of the ICSID tribunal in Malaysian Historical Salvors (MHS) v. Malaysia. In that case, the tribunal decided that MHS’s contract with Malaysia to undertake complex salvage operations did not rise to the level of an investment because, among other things, the contract did not significantly contribute to Malaysia’s economic development.
