美国2012年双边投资协定范本与中美双边投资协定谈判

2012 U.S. Model Bilateral Investment Treaty and Sino-US BIT Negotiation

本文首先介绍了美国2012年双边投资协定范本修订的主要内容,在此基础上对中美双边投资协定谈判中方应采取的立场进行了分析。本文认为美国2012年双边投资协定范本修订中涉及国家主导型经济体的内容对中方的影响有限。面对目前国际投资协定中准入前国民待遇条款日益增多的形式,本文认为中国应该支持多哈部长宣言第22段倡导的基于肯定清单的准入前国民待遇,以此为基础与美国及其他经济体展开投资自由化谈判。本文最后对中美双边投资协定谈判提出了一系列政策建议。

This paper introduces principal changes of U.S. Model Bilateral In- vestment Treaty in 2012, based on which, an analysis on China＇ s positions and strategies in Sino-US BIT negotiation is conducted. It is argued that 2012 revi- sions related to so-called State-led Economies are not main problems in the bilat- eral investment negotiation. As pre-entry national treatment has become more and more used in International Investment Agreements （IIAs） , the author suggests China to agree with pre-entry national treatment based on positive listing in in- vestment negotiations. A series of other policy advice are given.
