Abstract/Description:

Concluding the EU-China CAI will require coordination and agreement among the positions of 28 states of differing legal, cultural, political and economic traditions. In the context of global investment treaty-making practice and the race in which all countries are engaged to attract FDI, the conclusions reached by the parties will have significant influence beyond China and the EU. Against this background, this introductory chapter examines the drivers and issues of China-EU investment relationships, the potential innovation in rule-making in the Comprehensive Agreement on Investment, and the possible reform of ISDS in the context of China-EU investment treaty.
