ICSID体制下仲裁费用分担的实证分析

A Positive Analysis of the Allocation of Arbitration Costs under the ICSID System

《华盛顿公约》和《仲裁(附加便利)规则》都规定,如当事方没有相反约定,仲裁庭有分配仲裁开支和其他相关费用的自由裁量权。在实践中,仲裁庭往往会根据对当事方申请或辩护的成功比例、有关法律问题是否具有新颖性、当事双方在仲裁程序中是否有效率地合作、偏向于申请方的'正义和公平'等多个因素的考虑来分配与仲裁程序有关的费用。以此为基础,我国在相关的国内立法、双边投资保护条约中以及日后参加'中心'程序时应该采取相应的应对策略。

The Washington Convention and Arbitration(Additional Facility)Rules both provide that,absent contrary agreement between the parties,the award of costs and legal expenses is left to the discretion of the Tribunal.In most ICSID cases,tribunals often render arbitration costs award based on several factors,such as the relative success proportion of the parties,the novelty of legal issues,each party’s conduct during the proceeding,justice and equity,etc.Thus,we should adopt relevant tactic in national legislation,BITs and in ICSID arbitration proceeding in future.
