At its fifty-seventh session, in 2024, the Commission noted the emergence of new types of assets that could be used as collateral in international finance (including digital assets, data, verified carbon credits and crop receipts) as well as the development of new international financing practices. The Commission also noted legislative efforts by international and regional organizations to address transactions involving such assets as well as the evolving legislative approaches of States to legally characterize those new types of assets. It thus requested the UNCITRAL secretariat to organize a colloquium to clarify and refine various aspects of possible future work in the area. Read more here.
En su 57º período de sesiones, celebrado en 2024, la CNUDMI solicitó a la secretaría que organizara un coloquio sobre la pertinencia de los instrumentos de la CNUDMI para la acción climática, en particular la Convención de las Naciones Unidas sobre los Contratos de Compraventa Internacional de Mercaderías (CIM), la Ley Modelo de la CNUDMI sobre la Contratación Pública, las Disposiciones Legales Modelo de la CNUDMI sobre las Alianzas Público-Privadas y los instrumentos sobre solución de controversias. El coloquio debería ayudar a la CNUDMI a evaluar la conveniencia de que la secretaría preparara documentos de orientación sobre la aplicación práctica y la interpretación de los instrumentos existentes y posibles textos complementarios para abordar las cuestiones relativas a la acción climática. En respuesta a esa solicitud, la secretaría de la CNUDMI está organizando el Coloquio de la CNUDMI sobre el Derecho Mercantil Internacional para un Futuro Más Verde que tendrá lugar los días 23 y 24 de octubre de 2024 en el Centro Internacional de Viena (Viena, Austria).
À sa cinquante-septième session, en 2024, la CNUDCI a prié le secrétariat d’organiser un colloque sur la pertinence des instruments de la CNUDCI pour l’action climatique, notamment la Convention des Nations Unies sur les contrats de vente internationale de marchandises (CVIM), la Loi type sur la passation des marchés publics, les Dispositions législatives types sur les partenariats public-privé et les instruments sur le règlement des différends. Le colloque devrait aider la CNUDCI à déterminer s’il est souhaitable que secrétariat établisse des documents d’orientation sur l’application et l’interprétation dans la pratique des instruments existants et d’éventuels textes complémentaires pour traiter les questions relatives à l’action climatique. Pour donner suite à cette demande, le secrétariat de la CNUDCI organise le Colloque de la CNUDCI sur le droit du commerce international à l’appui d’un avenir plus vert les 23 et 24 octobre 2024 au Centre international de Vienne (Vienne, Autriche).
