Time and Compromise in UNCITRAL’s Working Group III
During the week of 22 September 2025, States once again met in Vienna under Working Group III (WGIII)...
In July 2014, UNCITRAL took an important step toward ensuring transparency of investor-state arbitrations when it adopted the Mauritius Convention on Transparency. This treaty enables its parties to effectively implement the Transparency Rules for treaties that pre-date the Rules on Transparency. In order to promote greater awareness and understanding of this important new instrument, CCSI published a Policy Paper providing background on the treaty and explaining its provisions. The commentary is based on attendance at UNCITRAL’s sessions, as well as written public records of the negotiations.
