Are you sure about that? Actually...quite to the contrary:
To prevent bias, the ICSID Convention provides that the majority of arbitrators should not be the nationals of the parties having dispute. According to a recent article, while mostly lawyers act as arbitrators in ICSID arbitration, non-lawyers, including architects, maritime experts and an economist have been appointed in some instances. ICSID’s appointed arbitrators come from more than seventy different nationalities.
