Until this time, there was plenty of speculation about the role of investment treaty arbitration on corruption, burden and standard of proof, legality requirement and so on. Metal-Tech Tribunal clarified many unexplored legal questions that have tremendous impact to the following investment arbitrations and also investors doing a business with corrupt governments in the world.
