Bertram Boie, Julien Chaisse, Philippe Gugler

Research output: Chapters, Conference Papers, Creative and Literary WorksRGC 12 - Chapter in an edited book (Author)peer-review

Abstract

International investment regulation is fragmented since this field is multilayered and multifaceted, made in substance of obligations differing in geographical scope and coverage and constituting an intricate web of commitments that partly overlap and partly supplement one another. The increasing importance of foreign direct investment (FDI) makes the current legal situation unsatisfactory.
