The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has announced the launch of a new initiative to improve access to justice in Ukraine. The initiative will provide world-class dispute resolution services for the country’s reconstruction projects. The ICC International Court of Arbitration has also announced a reduction in its case management fees to support Ukraine’s recovery process and attract foreign investment. This move will help create a stable and predictable environment for investors.
A key element of the initiative is the collaboration between the ICC and UkraineInvest to conduct a series of webinars and other events to raise awareness of investment opportunities in Ukraine. These events will also highlight the importance of effective dispute resolution mechanisms, which are critical to the smooth development of investment projects.
“In order to attract significant foreign investment for Ukraine’s recovery, the government has adopted new investment legislation that ensures support and protection for investors with substantial investments. The ICC initiative is important for investors because it creates a transparent legal framework that minimises legal risks and provides stability for doing business in Ukraine. This will help build confidence in the Ukrainian economy,” said Oleksandr Melnychchenko, Acting Executive Director of UkraineInvest.
As Ukraine’s recovery involves large-scale reconstruction efforts, the implementation of effective dispute resolution mechanisms is critical to reducing risks, particularly in areas such as infrastructure, energy and transport. In this context, the ICC’s dispute resolution services will not only ensure a high level of legal protection, but also strengthen the confidence of international investors, which is key to Ukraine’s sustainable economic recovery.
