The ever-recurring issue of investment treaty law and arbitration reform takes again center stage in this issue, courtesy of Noah Barr’s excellent piece focusing on the EU Commission’s ‘model’ of international investment protection as such model arises from the so-called new-generation International Investment Agreements (‘IIAs’) which the EU signed in recent years.
‘What makes a good arbitrator?’ asks Christopher Vajda KC in his Chartered Institute of Arbitrators Keynote address which we are delighted to publish at this issue. It is not a straight-forward question to answer. Practicing as an arbitrator does not necessarily make someone a good arbitrator, even if their practice is busy.
The opening piece of this Issue ‘Challenging Homogeneity in International Arbitration: Towards Greater Diversity and Inclusion in Counsel Teams’ by Eliane Fischer and Roopa Mathews offers an interesting and informative perspective on a widely discussed, yet still not universally well-managed issue of diversity and inclusion in arbitration. ‘Diversity’ and ‘inclusion’, have been in our minds in dispute resolution for many years.
