摘 要 投資人因證券交易而發生糾紛時,通常採取以下五種方式來解決:(1)向主管機關「證券交易管理委員會」或「證券交易所」提出檢舉,藉以達到損害賠償之目的;(2)由當事人間自行解決;(3)利用證券商公會之證券調解制度;(4)利用商務仲裁制度,解決爭議;(5)依民事訴訟程序,或刑事附帶民事之訴訟程序,以解決糾紛。惟上述五種方式各有利弊,又證券交易相關糾紛之解決攸關證券市場之健全發展,而證券市場之管理又經常自成體系,有其特殊性,故以仲裁解決證券交易相關糾紛已發展為健全證券市場或交易制度所不可或缺之一環。 由於有關證券爭議之仲裁,係規定於現行證券交易第六章,惟證券交易法對仲裁事項未規範者適用商務仲裁條例,因此,本文將首先探討我國仲裁制度及仲裁法相關規定,並且釐清仲裁所可能涉及之基本問題。 其次,本文將介紹證券爭議之基本概念,以及證券仲裁之概念,釐清證券爭議之範疇,並探討證券仲裁的法源及相關法規,並檢討目前實務上證券爭議仲裁之相關問題。 此外,美國是證券仲裁制度的發源地,有近200年的歷史,證券仲裁已經成爲其解決證券爭議的主要方式。經歷多年的發展,美國發展出一套比較完善而行之有效的證券爭議仲裁制度,其中許多規則具有鮮明的特色和優點,可以給我們不少啓發,值得我國在健全證券仲裁制度時加以借鑒和參照,因此本文將介紹美國證券仲裁發展過程中重要的案例及其影響,並分析美國法院對證券爭議仲裁之傾向的轉變,「他山之石可以攻錯」,希望藉由外國立法例之認識,比較出我國證券仲裁制度之優缺點,並進而提出一些利於我國證券仲裁之相關制度、規定之修正建議。 最後檢討我國仲裁機構之設置與現行法之缺失,期望能建構出證券仲裁之合理化制度,進而提供立法者做為未來立法之參考。 關鍵字:證券、仲裁、仲裁人、證券仲裁、證券交易法、美國、聯邦仲裁法
