Full course description

This 16-week program focuses on the theoretical and practical knowledge needed to handle international investment arbitral cases either as counsel or arbitrator, both from the substantive and procedural law standpoint.

The syllabus is designed to explore the salient issues arising in the conduct of investment arbitrations, from the notice of arbitration to the enforcement of investment arbitral awards. The program will guide participants through the complex interactions between arbitral awards, national court decisions, national legislation, international arbitration treaties, and the arbitral rules of leading international arbitration institutions relevant in this field, such as the ICSID Arbitration Rules.

The course also has a strong substantive component that explores advancements in current arbitral practices including expropriation, fair and equitable treatment, full protection and security, national treatment, and most favored nation treatment.

 

The Program is directed by Claudia Frutos-Peterson, Managing Partner, Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt & Mosle LLP.
