Bar Associations Building, 1-1-3 Kasumigaseki, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan

Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS), a dispute resolution mechanism for countries and foreign investors, is increasing globally, with Japanese companies being involved in more cases. The UNCITRAL: United Nations Commission on International Trade Law  is leading discussions on ISDS reform, where international mediation is gaining attention as a new tool. The International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) and UNCITRAL have developed mediation rules for ISDS. This seminar will feature experts discussing recent developments and the effectiveness of arbitration and mediation in ISDS. Given the growing possibility of Japan and its companies being involved in ISDS, this is a valuable opportunity for those working in ISDS to learn about arbitration and mediation as tools.

16th edition of the FIAMC-CIETAC Chinese (Mainland) National Rounds

Organiser

China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (“CIETAC”)

Date

8-12 April 2024

Venue

Beijing

Details

The 16th edition of the Frankfurt Investment Arbitration Moot Court - CIETAC Chinese (Mainland) National Rounds (Moot Court) is scheduled to be held in person between 8-12 April 2024 in Beijing.

The Frankfurt Investment Arbitration Moot Court (“FIAMC”) is the oldest and most prestigious moot court competition in the field of investment law. In response to the Belt and Road Initiative and with the great support from the Ministry of Commerce of China, CIETAC firstly introduced the FIAMC into China in 2019, which was reported by the Legal Daily (法治日报), the most influential and authoritative media in the Chinese legal sector. In the past years, CIETAC has further expanded the scale of the competition and held four Chinese mainland national rounds, which accumulatively attracted registrations of more than 800 participants from China’s top-notch law schools.

Throughout the years, CIETAC Hong Kong Arbitration Center has been the hosting body under CIETAC for the Chinese mainland national rounds. CIETAC Hong Kong Arbitration Center is the first branch of CIETAC established outside the Chinese mainland in 2012 and has been serving as a major outreach connecting point of CIETAC to the Asia-Pacific region and a super-connector within the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
