Investor-State Dispute Settlement: Are Arbitrators or Judges the Path Forward?
Join us for a seminar about the investor-state dispute settlement system (ISDS), the instrument investors can use to sue countries for alleged discriminatory practices. ISDS is currently at a crossroads – major reforms like permanent investment courts with appellate proceedings – once fanciful – now appear respectable. Proponents see these changes as enhancing the rule of law, predictability, and consistency across cases.
