This Programme will cover “International Commercial Arbitration” (ICA) and “Investment Treaty Arbitration” (ITA). ICA is essentially a private resolution forum between private parties (or States acting in a private capacity, jure gestionis), where the subject-matter of the dispute often stems from a “commercial” contract or undertaking of some sort. When studying ICA, we will largely focus on the process of arbitration and not on the subject matter. ITA, on the other hand, is a form of arbitration between foreign investors and host States regarding foreign direct investment (FDI). The subject-matter is arbitrated under public international law, more specifically international investment law. International investment law is a sub-specie of international economic law. The investor requests arbitration against the host State pursuant to alleged violations of international investment law as found in various international investment agreements (IIAs) or foreign direct investment laws. The field of investment treaty arbitration has grown exponentially the last century. This Programme will end with practical hints and tips on the actual practice of ICA and ITA.
