Investment Arbitration and the Controverted Right of the Arbitrator to Issue a Separate or Dissenting Opinion
2018
Abstract Although dissents are not generally encouraged in international arbitration, they are a reality of investment treaty disputes. About one in five cases includes at least one separate or dissenting opinion. The ICSID Convention is rare among investment arbitration rules to expressly recognise the right of the arbitrator to attach his or her personal opinion to the award. Other investment arbitration rules are silent on the topic. And yet dissenting opinions are an established feature of several international courts and tribunals and their role is often viewed more benevolently than in investment arbitration. The article explores the perceived advantages and disadvantages of dissents …

2017
The regulatory framework of the EU Structural and Investment Funds (ESI Funds) has a strong territorial dimension and support to designated territories, particularly municipalities, is common.

Diskriminācijas aizlieguma saturs starptautiskajos investīciju strīdos
2019
Diskriminācijas aizliegums ir viens no pamatprincipiem starptautisko investīciju tiesībās un starptautisko investīciju aizsardzības režīmos. Lai gan šis princips ir sastopams gandrīz ikkatrā investīciju aizsardzības režīmu nodibinošajā dokumentā, tā definīcija un saturs joprojām ir neskaidri, izraisot diskusijas starptautiskajā sabiedrībā. Principa interpretācija ir atstāta tiesu un šķīrējtiesu ziņā, kas nav spējušas nonākt pie vienota un skaidra diskriminācijas aizlieguma satura.
