It is indeed a very difficult task to distil from the work of Working Group III the main issues and this has been perfectly achieved. Before commenting on some specific points highlighted by Ms. Montineri allow me a general comment on one of the underlying difficulties that seem to be encountered by Working Group III when it concluded the second step, its identification of problems, and is now moving towards possible solutions. The closer this third step, the more evident a certain tension becomes: a tension between the flexibility of solutions for all members, as advocated by Working Group III, and the idea of creating a multilateral investment court (MIC) which will effectively function only if it is not flexible like the current arbitration system. Let me now make some specific comments on the identified concerns regarding ISDS, in regard to 1. inconsistent and ‘incorrect’ outcomes, 2. the independence and impartiality of arbitrators, challenge mechanisms and diversity, as well as 3. costs and allocation of costs in ISDS as well as concerns in regard to third-party funding:","PeriodicalId":404804,"journal":{"name":"Evolution, Evaluation and Future Developments in International Investment Law","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126301717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The international economic law has the economical character. Meanwhile, the international investment law also adapts to the basic principle of the international law, especially the principle of the state sovereignty. The development of the economical mutual dependency requires the convergence of the rule of the international economic law, while the principle of sovereignty emphasises the individual interest of the states. The international investment law must take account of both. So in the condition that the state economical systems are different, the rule of the international investment law cannot be formed. It is comprehensive to discuss the international investment law under foe development of the international law and the state economical system.","PeriodicalId":404804,"journal":{"name":"Evolution, Evaluation and Future Developments in International Investment Law","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122395655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
