In any mass claim proceedings it is a daunting task for the judicial body to correctly balance "the tension between individualized justice (...) and efficiency and speed". And for a number of reasons this struggle is even more self-evident in investment arbitration. The heat has been turned up recently in the debate concerning mass claims arbitration, particularly after thousands of Italian bondholders brought a case against Argentina at the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes ("ICSID"). This was followed shortly afterwards by two other mass claims proceedings, and it is very likely that the international arbitration environment will witness further attempts to initiate mass proceedings. This is why the topic merits closer analysis. (fragment of text)
