as The Fair and Equitable Treatment Standard: A Guide to NAFTA Case Law on Article 1105 By www.cch.ca Published On :: Wed, 30 Oct 2013 13:09:23 GMT Published: October 2013 Since the entry into force of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in 1994, several arbitral tribunals have rendered awards dealing with claims of breach of Article 1105. Some of these awards have been very controversial and have had a tremendous impact on the development of the concept of fair and equitable treatment (FET) and the evolution of international investment law. Yet, in spite of the fundamental importance of these awards, no comprehensive study had been undertaken to determine the meaning and the content of the FET standard under NAFTA Article 1105. This book’s systematic analysis of the provision and its case law fills this analytical gap. Because Article 1105 is in many ways different from typical FET clauses contained within most investment treaties, the author examines the particular parameters under which it must be interpreted. He also analyzes how these specific features have influenced NAFTA tribunals’ interpretation of the provision, and how their assessments differ from awards rendered by other tribunals outside NAFTA. Among the issues treated in the course of the analysis are the following: The origin, development, nature and content of the concept of the ‘minimum standard of treatment’ and its interaction with the FET standard The specific parameters under which Article 1105 must be interpreted, including contextual elements such as subsequent agreement and practice between the NAFTA Parties on matters of interpretation The context in which the Free Trade Commission issued its Note of Interpretation in 2001 and how NAFTA tribunals have applied it Whether or not the concepts of legitimate expectations, transparency, arbitrary conduct, discriminatory conduct, good faith, denial of justice, and due process have been considered by NAFTA tribunals as specific elements of protection to be accorded to investors under Article 1105 The many facets of these elements and the threshold of severity that NAFTA tribunals have required for finding a breach of Article 1105 The interaction between Article 1105 and other NAFTA provisions on national treatment, Most-Favored-Nation treatment, and expropriation How NAFTA tribunals have assessed damages for breach of Article 1105 This comprehensive guide to NAFTA case law on Article 1105 is an important contribution to the on-going controversial debate about the scope and content of the FET standard under international law. It will be of great interest to counsel for investors and States as well as to arbitrators, academics and anyone interested in investor-State arbitration.

as GAAS Guide, 2015 (with CD-ROM) (U.S.) By www.cch.ca Published On :: Fri, 19 Sep 2014 14:48:50 GMT Authors: Mark S. Beasley, Ph.D., CPA, and Joseph V. Carcello, Ph.D., CPA, CIA, CMA CCH's GAAS Guide describes the engagement standards, practices, and procedures in use today, including Statements on Auditing Standards (SASs) and their Interpretations, Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAEs) and their Interpretations, and Statements on Standards on Accounting and Review Services (SSARS) and their Interpretations. The 2015 Edition of the GAAS Guide reflects the latest available professional standards. Most importantly, changes in auditing standards and the related Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards resulting from the Auditing Standards Board’s (ASB) Clarity and Convergence Project. This edition includes coverage of SAS-122 (essentially all of the AU-C sections) (Clarification and Recodification), issued in October 2011, SAS-123 (AU-C 200, AU-C 230, AU-C 260, AU-C 705, AU-C 720, AU 915, and AU-C 935) (Omnibus Statement on Auditing Standards — 2011), issued in October 2011, SAS-124 (AU-C 910) (Financial Statements Prepared in Accordance with a Financial Reporting Framework Generally Accepted in Another Country), issued in October 2011, SAS-125 (AU-C 905) (Alert that Restricts the Use of the Auditor’s Written Communication), issued in December 2011, SAS-126 (AU-C 570) (The Auditor’s Consideration of the Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern), issued in July 2012, and SAS-127 (AU-C 600 and AU-C 800) (Omnibus Statement on Auditing Standards—2013), issued in January 2013. SAS-122 is particularly noteworthy as it represents the culmination of the ASB’s efforts to clarify the auditing standards and to largely converge its standards with the standards of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB). Designated by the new “AU-C” section numbering, the recodified, clarified standards numbers are the same as the equivalent ISA numbers for clarified SASs that are based on equivalent ISAs (AU-C section numbers for clarified SASs with no equivalent ISAs have been assigned new numbers). The GAAS Guide incorporates these new requirements throughout the affected auditing standards and includes coverage of AICPA pronouncements for the following standards: SAS-127 (AU-C 600 and AU-C 900) (Omnibus Statement on Auditing Standards—2013) SSAE-17 (AT 301) (Reporting on Compiled Prospective Financial Statements When the Practitioner’s Independence Is Impaired) SSARS-20 (Revised Applicability of Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services) All the exhibit materials in the book appear on the accompanying CD-ROM.

SAS-122 is particularly noteworthy as it represents the culmination of the ASB’s efforts to clarify the auditing standards and to largely converge its standards with the standards of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. As such, SAS-122 supersedes most of the existing auditing standards and recodifies the clarified and converged standards in one place (essentially similar to the design of SAS-1 many years ago). In addition, as part of its efforts, the ASB has issued these new standards using a new codification numbering sequence. We adopt this new numbering sequence in this year’s Guide. The 2013 Edition includes coverage of the following: SAS-125 (AU 905) (Alert that Restricts the Use of the Auditor’s Written Communication) SSAE-17 (AT 301) (Reporting on Compiled Prospective Financial Statements When the Practitioner’s Independence is Impaired) SSARS-20 (Revised Applicability of Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services) The book is organized to follow the arrangement of the AICPA's Professional Standards.
