Title: An Advisory Centre on International Investment Law: Key Features
Abstract: The United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) has put the idea of an Advisory Centre on International Investment Law (ACIIL) on its agenda. The Centre is meant to help under-resourced developing countries in international investment disputes. This paper begins with a brief review of the rise of such disputes and their costs, and outlines the principal characteristics of the Advisory Centre on WTO Law, as a precedent for an ACIIL. It then focuses on the possible key features of an ACIIL, namely the potential beneficiaries, the possible range of services it could provide, its governance, and its financing. The paper ends with a proposal for the way forward.
