  • Towards a More Harmonised Asian Approach to Corruption and Illegality in Investment Arbitration

    Teramura N., Nottage L., Jetin B., Asia in Transition, 2024年

    , 査読有り

    　概要を見る

    In parallel with their strong economic growth99*Growth, Asian jurisdictions have scaled up campaigns against bribery and other illegal misconduct by foreign investors by adopting international anti-corruption frameworks. Nonetheless, corruption remains common in many places and there is also still a lack of consensus on the influence of corruption and illegality over foreign direct investment (FDI), as well as in investor–state arbitration cases. There is also a paucity of literature considering how Asian countries have dealt with such serious misconduct by foreign investors. The foregoing chapters have started to fill the gaps, finding that there are some ‘Asian approaches’ to corruption and bribery in investment arbitrations: some individual jurisdictions have started to address the issues of corruption and illegality through treaty (re)drafting and/or investment disputes. However, a uniform Asian approach towards corruption and illegality in investment arbitration has not yet been established. Thus, this chapter proposes a roadmap for a more harmonised regional approach to corruption and illegality in Asian investment arbitration. It recommends that Asia1*Asia should (1) establish a forum for all jurisdictions to discuss corruption and other serious misconduct involved in FDI, (2) develop more unified rules on corruption and illegality specifically in Asian investment arbitration and (3) consider creating an independent institution99*Institutions or permanent court to better handle Asian investment disputes—not necessarily limited to allegations of corruption and illegality.

  • Foreign Investment, Treaties, Arbitration and Corruption: Comparing Japan

    Nottage L., Teramura N., Asia in Transition, 2024年

    , 査読有り

    　概要を見る

    Japan emerged from the 1980s as a leading net exporter of foreign direct investment, with very little corruption. Since 2001, it has accelerated ratifications of standalone bilateral investment treaties as well as investment chapters in free trade agreements. Almost all allow foreign investors from the home state to directly initiate investor–state dispute settlement (ISDS) arbitration against host states to get relief from violations of substantive treaty commitments. Japan’s investment treaty practice on corruption and illegality is intriguing. First, from around 2007, its treaties have often urged host states to take measures against corruption. This should help Japan’s1*Japan outbound investors. Second, Japan’s treaties have been less consistent in expressly limiting their protections to foreign investments made in accordance with host state laws. This can again benefit Japanese outbound investors as claimants, as the absence of a legality provision renders more difficult defences from host states, which typically have more corruption than in Japan1*Japan. Japan may adopt more and clearer legality provisions if subjected to more inbound ISDS arbitration claims and/or if claims by Japanese outbound investors are mostly against well-governed host states with little scope for corruption. Yet both types of claims remain few. The shift may therefore come more from other counterparty states pushing for such legality provisions and Japan agreeing in its future treaties to demonstrate its overall commitment to combatting corruption, and to preserve the legitimacy of the ISDS arbitration system.

  • Bribery and Other Serious Investor Misconduct in Asian International Arbitration

    Teramura N., Nottage L., Jetin B., Asia in Transition, 2024年

    , 査読有り

    　概要を見る

    Bribery and other serious illegal behaviour by foreign investors face wide condemnation in any society. Yet there remains a lack of consensus on the consequences of corruption and illegality affecting international investment, and especially in investment arbitration—a transnational procedure to resolve disputes between a foreign investor and a host state. A core issue is whether a foreign investor violating a host state's law should be awarded protection of its investment, as per its contract with the host state and/or the applicable investment or trade agreement between the home state and the host state. Some suggest such protection would be unnecessary, as the investor committed a crime in the host state, while others attempt to establish an equilibrium between the investor and the host state. Some others claim to protect investment, invoking the sanctity of promises made. This book explores Asian approaches towards the issue, setting it in the wider political economy and domestic law contexts. It also considers the extent to which significant states in Asia1*Asia are or could become ‘rule makers’ rather than ‘rule takers’ regarding corruption and serious illegality in investor–state arbitration.

  • Enforcing Singapore Judgments in Cambodia: Reciprocity Under the Loupe

    Papp E., Teramura N.

    Asian Journal of International Law 15 （ 2 ） 252 - 280 2025年07月

    研究論文（学術雑誌）, 共著, 査読有り,  ISSN  20442513

    　概要を見る

    This article examines the feasibility of enforcing Singapore money judgments in Cambodia, focusing on the guarantee of reciprocity - an ambiguous yet critical condition. It is ambiguous because Cambodian courts have not yet interpreted it. It is critical because it is perceived as the main obstacle to enforcing foreign judgments. Without a treaty-based mutual enforcement mechanism between Cambodia and Singapore, it is unclear whether a Singapore money judgment could be enforced in Cambodia or if a judgment creditor's application would be dismissed in any event citing lack of reciprocity. Following an analysis of the laws of Cambodia, Singapore, and Japan, the article concludes that there is no legal obstacle before the Cambodian courts to enforce a Singapore money judgment. The flexible interpretation of the guarantee of reciprocity outlined in this article would enhance access to justice, eliminate a trade barrier, and make the investment environment more attractive in Cambodia.

  • Corruption-related provisions in East and South Asian investment agreements: An empirical analysis

    Teramura N., Nottage L.

    Journal of International Economic Law 28 （ 2 ） 157 - 183 2025年06月

    研究論文（学術雑誌）, 共著, 筆頭著者, 責任著者, 査読有り,  ISSN  13693034

    　概要を見る

    This article analyses two types of provisions relevant to corruption in Asian international investment agreements (IIAs): clauses requiring (host) states to enforce anti-corruption laws and clauses that protect foreign investments made in accordance with host state laws. It tests whether IIA drafters act rationally regarding such clauses, or instead show status quo or other biases. This is complex first because rational strategies should depend on whether the state is a net exporter of foreign direct investment (FDI) or a net importer, but we explain how determining this status may be difficult. Secondly, rational strategies should depend on the relative extent of corruption in each state and, somewhat relatedly, the extent of inbound FDI claims. Despite such complexities and some instances of more 'bounded' rationality, overall states seem to be drafting both types of clauses rationally - even, and indeed especially, the net-FDI-importing states that tend to be transitioning economies. Adding to that empirical result from a more normative perspective, the article helps identify factors that could or should be considered by future IIA drafters, international bodies, or others tracking the trajectories of IIAs and corruption in Asia and beyond.

  • Confidentiality and privacy of arbitration in the digital era: pies in the sky?

    Teramura N., Trakman L.

    Arbitration International 40 （ 3 ） 277 - 306 2024年09月

    研究論文（学術雑誌）, 共著, 筆頭著者, 責任著者, 査読有り,  ISSN  09570411

    　概要を見る

    Confidentiality and privacy are essential components of arbitration, preceding the digital data era. This article discusses how arbitration stakeholders—arbitration institutions and associations, arbitrators, attorneys, and commercial users—have increasingly lost control over confidentiality and privacy in international commercial arbitration by adopting digital technologies provided by Internet giants, such as Microsoft, Google, Dropbox, and Zoom. Arbitration institutions and users have, often unconsciously, defined confidentiality and privacy expansively to promote the wider use of email, cloud storage, and video conferencing platforms in conducting arbitration proceedings. However, they have overlooked the extent to which the use of digital technologies exposes private and confidential information to third parties, including but not limited to Big Data. They have also placed undue faith in the capacity of Internet giants that dominate the Internet to protect highly sensitive arbitration proceedings which those giants commercialize to garner public attention including in arbitration disputes. In responding to this troubling reality, the article examines how to better protect confidentiality and privacy in arbitration, by refining existing protections embodied in international rules and guidelines and choosing domestic forums that favour such protections. It also encourages arbitration stakeholders to update the rules and their application to arbitral proceedings to respond to both intended and unintended violations of commercial and personal data. That strategy includes redressing the downstream disclosure of injurious data, including by choosing legal forums that protect against the use of intelligence to violate private and confidential data.
