ICSID Model Arbitration Clauses

The ICSID Model Arbitration Clauses offer ready-to-use drafting language for parties who wish to resolve disputes through ICSID-administered arbitration. They are designed for use in contracts between foreign investors and States, including constituent subdivisions or agencies of States, and in certain circumstances, Regional Economic Integration Organizations (REIOs) or their agencies. These clauses are grounded in ICSID’s established framework for contract-based investment dispute resolution and are not intended to substitute independent legal advice.
