PLMJ partner Tiago Duarte elected president of the Council for Investment Arbitration by the Direction of the APA – Portuguese Arbitration Association
19/11/2012Tiago Duarte, a partner working in the public law and arbitration practices has been elected by the directors of the APA – Portuguese Arbitration Association as president of the Council for Investment Arbitration. This Council for Investment Arbitration is intended to bring together all those with an interest in international arbitration for protection of investments.
Arbitration for protection of international investments has seen exponential expansion as a means of resolving disputes arising between investors from one State and another State in which the investment in question is made. Most of these disputes relate to contracts for construction and operation of infrastructures or contract to operate public services. However, there are also cases of disputes over financial investments and other matters. In the very near future, the Council for Investment Arbitration will have a website which will serve, among other things, as an online repository for the most relevant conventions in this area, for Portuguese and international doctrine on the topic and for leading case law.
Tiago Duarte has gained professional experience as a lawyer and partner at PLMJ working on this specific type of arbitrations and he also has extensive academic qualifications and is the author of a number of papers on the topic. He was accepted as a visiting fellow at Cambridge University for the academic year 2011/2012 which he spent writing a post-doctoral paper on this same topic. Tiago Duarte is also a lecturer on the module of international arbitration for protection of investments at Universidade Nova de Lisboa and on the recent LLM at the University of the Minho.
