The SCC emerged as one of the world's leading forums for resolving disputes between investors and states, and is the second largest forum for investment disputes under its own rules after the World Bank. In 2014, the SCC saw a record number of 11 new investment treaty cases filed under its rules. Overall, the SCC has administered 73 investment disputes since 1993, with 51 of those cases administered under SCC Rules. Most disputes have been based on bilateral investment treaties or the Energy Charter Treaty.
