ICSID has an Administrative Council, chaired by the World Bank's President, and a Secretariat. It provides facilities for the conciliation and Arbitration of investment disputes between member countries and individual investors. During the past decade, with the proliferation of Bilateral Investment Treaties (BITs), most of which refer present and future investment disputes to the ICSID, the caseload of the ICSID has substantially increased. As of June 30 , 2005 , ICSID had registered 184 cases more than 30 of which were pending against Argentina – Argentina's economic crisis and subsequent Argentine government measures led several foreign investors to file cases against Argentina. ICSID’s headquarters are located in Washington, D.C. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
