A Multilateral Investment Court
from Part III - The External Investment System of the EU
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 July 2023
The future of ISDS is at a historic crossroads. In this final chapter we provide an overview of the ISDS reform process in the UNCITRAL and discuss the EU proposal for a Multilateral Investment Court in the context of this reform. First, we contextualise the current ISDS reform against earlier attempts to negotiate multilateral international investment agreements to explain how the current reform is different. Second, we discuss the scope of the reform and its process in the framework of UNCITRAL, particularly focusing on the identified ISDS concerns. Third, we outline the reform options that have emerged in the discussion and explain their correlation to the EU’s MIC proposal. In the final part of this chapter, we consider the potential contributions that an MIC could make to the rule of law and the legitimacy of international investment law. While the negotiations are set to conclude in 2025, the aim of this chapter is to place the EU’s proposal in the broader ISDS reform context and reflect on its external challenges in this reform process.
