Intraeuropäisches Investitionsrecht

This book deals with the validity of intra-EU investment arbitration on the basis of investment treaties between EU Member States (intra-EU BITs) as well as the Energy Charter Treaty (ECT). Since this matter is principally debated upon during intra-EU investment arbitration proceedings, it shall be analysed from the perspective of a tribunal. In doing so, various procedural questions such as the applicability of EU-law during investment arbitration as well as the interpretation methods of public international law are addressed. The legal status of intra-EU BITS is examined from a EU-law as well as public international law perspective. Additionally, the author suggests, how tribunals could solve substantive law conflicts between EU-law and intra-EU investment treaties optimally from a public international law perspective. It is only by respecting the principles of public international law, that substantive law conflicts can be solved by maintaining the validity of both legal orders.
