The Arbitration Institute of the Central Chamber
of Commerce of Finland (FCCC) has a tradition of more
than 90 years. The FCCC Institute was established already
in 1911. From the beginning of 1919 it has been functioning
within the Central Chamber of Commerce in Helsinki.
The
FCCC Institute provides settlement by arbitration of
both international and domestic disputes. The decisions
of the FCCC Institute are final and not subject to review
by the Central Chamber of Commerce. The FCCC Institute
is the only arbitration institute in Finland of some
importance.
The
FCCC Institute promotes the settlement by arbitration
of domestic and international business
disputes and provides information concerning arbitration.
Moreover, it also administers arbitrations when the
parties have agreed on arbitration in accordance with
the FCCC Rules. It also appoints an arbitrator or arbitrators
in other cases if the parties have so agreed. The FCCC
Institute acts, however, as an appointing authority
under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules.
