IMPROVING THE MECHANISMS FOR ENSURING THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF INVESTORS IN PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL LAW

International investment law plays a crucial role in facilitating cross-border investment flows and promoting economic development. However, the current mechanisms for ensuring the rights and obligations of investors in public international law face a number of challenges, including fragmentation of the legal landscape, limitations of investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) mechanisms, and the tension between protecting investor rights and safeguarding states' regulatory space.This article proposes a series of reforms to improve the mechanisms for ensuring the rights and obligations of investors in public international law. These reforms include harmonization and consolidation of investment treaties, modernization of ISDS mechanisms, clarification of investor obligations, and promotion of sustainable investment practices.
