Summary
This book is dedicated to special and recent issues related to
international investment in the Energy and Infrastructure sectors. More
than 200 investment awards are analysed, scrutinizing jurisdictional
issues, standards of protection of investments (expropriation, Fair and
Equitable Treatment, National Treatment, Full Protection and Security,
Umbrella claim and Most Favored Nation Treatment), quantum of damages
and allocation of costs of arbitration. Another added value of this book
is the selection of numerous tests applied by the Arbitration Tribunals
and the complex exercise of “entering the minds” of Arbitrators to
ascertain the reasoning behind Arbitral awards.
The underlining
question addressed is how far the States’ rights to regulate go and to
which extent the acquired rights of foreign investors are protected?
