PL Holdings, a Luxembourg company, has prevailed in its SCC arbitration against the Republic of Poland. The claim concerned the uncompensated expropriation of PL Holding’s equity investment in a Polish bank, in violation of the Luxembourg-Poland BIT. In its recent Final Award, the tribunal ordered Poland to pay c. €176 million in damages and €3.5 million in costs.
Sean Aughey was part of the counsel team which successfully acted for PL Holdings, together with Fietta LLP, Linklaters (London and Warsaw), and Matthieu Gregoire.
