Abstract: | This Module deals with the question of who may be a party to proceedings under the Convention on the Settlement of Investment Disputes between States and Nationals of other States. These are called the requirements ratione personae. Most prominent among these are issues of nationality. The Convention is designed for the settlement of investment disputes between host States and foreign investors. The Convention allows nationals of Contracting States (i.e. States Parties to the ICSID Convention) to bring claims against other Contracting States. It also allows Contracting States to bring claims against nationals of other Contracting States. |
