When a state's court is asked to recognize and enforce an international investment arbitration award, the existence and scope of authority of judicial review of the court depend on that state's identity. Firstly, the host state has the obligation to execute an award and doesn't have the authority to review an award as to its substance, according to the Washington Convention, relevant arbitral cases and UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules. Secondly, if it is a Contracting State to the Washington Convention, whose court is asked to recognize and enforce an award by foreign investors, then this Contracting state is empowered with 'limited and indirect authorization of review', based on the analysis of Article 54 of the Washington Convention, its drafting history, arbitral cases and commentators' views. Thirdly, if foreign investors, relying on the New York Convention or the Reciprocity Principle, turn to a third state's court for the recognition and enforcement of an award in other situations, that court has explicit authority of judicial review. |
