Commercial, Political, and Regulatory Risks: Bringing the Rule of Law to Your Foreign Investments
Commercial, political, and regulatory risks are an integral part of investing in foreign jurisdictions. In emerging regions of the world—like Africa, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the CIS States—these risks can be sufficiently high to deter otherwise attractive investments. A panel of Jones Day's Global Disputes Practice attorneys discusses how such commercial, political, and regulatory issues can be addressed in national courts and international arbitral tribunals. Following this discussion, a distinguished panel of corporate counsel share their practical experience and insights on how national courts and tribunals may and do bring the rule of law to jurisdictions that lack the ability or temerity to protect legitimate foreign investments. The panels are followed by a keynote address from Judge Stephen Schwebel, a leading arbitrator and former judge and President of the International Court of Justice.
