The 2008 Moot Competition Case will be made available here in accordance with the Schedule and the Official Rules in early 2008.
Each year's case will include at least one procedural issue (e.g. jurisdiction, composition, powers of the tribunal) and at least one substantive issue (e.g. admission of investment, standards of treatment, regulatory compliance, performance, expropriation, compensation).
The investor's home State, the State of the tribunal's seat, and the host State have adopted legislation implementing the 1985 UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration (UNCITRAL Model Law) and have ratified the 1958 Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (New York Convention).
The investor's home State and/or the host State have ratified the 1965 Convention on the Settlement of Investment Disputes between States and Nationals of Other States (ICSID or Washington Convention).
From year to year, relevant arbitration rules, such as those of ICSID, UNCITRAL, the ICC, the LCIA, etc. will apply.
The case will be elaborated under the guidance of the Advisory Board and reviewed by the College of Arbitrators and Memorandum Judges before publication.
