The International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (CPR), Freshfields and Tozzini Freire invite you to “Charting the path to efficient resolution of investment disputes in LatAm: Who is in Charge?,” a panel discussion hosted by Freshfields online and in-person during New York International Arbitration Week (NYIAW). NYIAW is co-organized by the New York International Arbitration Center (NYIAC) and the New York Branch of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArbNY) from November 14-18, 2022.
Latin American states have largely embraced arbitration to settle disputes arising out of private investments in the public sector. In many LatAm states, sovereign consent to arbitrate disputes brought by foreign investors under investment treaties has been a key driver of investments in the region. While Brazil has not followed the same path, the Brazilian domestic legal framework has been substantially enhanced to allow the state to arbitrate disputes arising out of contracts executed with foreign investors. In our panel, we will discuss how foreign investors may navigate the differences and similarities between investor-state arbitrations in LatAm and contractual arbitrations involving the Brazilian state in order to better control the arbitral proceeding and the outcome of their disputes.
