THE ARBITATION INSTITUTE OF THE CENTRAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE OF FINLAND (Paula Paloranta)

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.
