Extract

Investment treaties, as we know, grant foreign investors certain substantive rights as well as direct remedies for enforcement, in particular access to international arbitration. Yet these rights and remedies are not granted to an investor in a vacuum. They often exist alongside rights under domestic law and contractual regimes. Moreover, when a foreign investment is made through a multilevel corporate structure—as is common—various entities in the chain may have rights under different investment treaties.
