Commercial Arbitration, Investor State Disputes
Register for this event

Africa’s mining sector is being reshaped by a combustible mix of unabated demand for critical minerals, resource nationalism, regulatory volatility, and security challenges across the region. At the same time, the incursions of artisanal miners, ever-changing tax regimes, coups and countercoups are becoming the new normal.

 

Against this backdrop, our speakers will share their insights on the following topics:

 

• The rapidly changing commercial and investment-treaty arbitration landscape in the sector, triggered by the impact on long-term projects and supply chains, of challenging security conditions, commodity cycles, tax regime changes, changes in government and resource nationalism.

• Remedies for the termination of mining concessions, illegal mining and discriminatory tax measures.

• Sector-specific quantum models in treaty and commercial disputes.

• Enforcement strategies in disputes involving African states and state-related entities.
