Manish Aggarwal and Ridhi Kabra have co-authored the “Regulating for Climate Change Without Breaching Investment Treaties” chapter in Investment Arbitration and Climate Change, recently published by Kluwer Law International.
The publication addresses the critical need to align investment protection with climate action, featuring timely insights from experts analysing climate-related investment disputes and their unique procedural challenges, as well as evaluating the delicate balance between state regulations and foreign investors’ rights.
In this chapter, Manish and Ridhi examine the fragmented state of arbitral jurisprudence on the interaction between investment protection and a host State’s right to regulate, focusing on the points of uncertainty that investors and host States should bear in mind in considering climate change policy and regulation and their impact on foreign investments.
