Özet

The concept of the investment treaty regime has been a controversial issue in global economic governance due to its asymmetric nature, which imposes various obligations on the States but “no inherent limitation” upon substantive rights of investors.[35] A significant concern associated with the growing reliance on investment treaties is whether the many States signing them, have understood and paid enough attention to the treaties’ provisions at the drafting and negotiation stage. In the last few decades, investors have become more aware of the treaties’ provisions and the rights they enjoy under the treaties, leading to an increase in the number of investment claims against States.
