摘要
公正与公平待遇标准是国际投资协定中普遍采纳的一项投资待遇标准,但是不同的国家和学者对该标准的含义一直存在观点分歧。《北美自由贸易协定》生效后,依据该协定第11章投资规则提起的仲裁案例不少,该标准成为国际投资条约中最具争议的问题之一。上述仲裁案例直接促使公正与公平待遇标准在晚近有了重大的发展。美国与加拿大两国对各自的双边投资条约新范本作出了重大的修改,并根据新范本开展了新一轮的国际投资条约谈判计划。本文重点评介公正与公平待遇标准的新内容,并进而探求公正与公平待遇标准的新发展的特点与深层次原因。本文还剖析了中国所缔结的双边投资条约中的公正与公平待遇条款存在的问题及可能给中国带来的潜在风险,并根据中国自身的特点,明确对公正与公平待遇的定位,进而提出全面的应对策略。
The concept of"fair and equitable treatment"(F&E)has become an important treatment standard to foreign investor and investment in International Investment Agreements(IIAs).However,due to the vague terms of"fair"and"equitable",there are academic differences as to the precise meaning of the treatment.Moreover,since many disputes were raised for arbitration according to NAFTA Chapter 11,F&E standard has become one of the most controversial issues inⅡAs.Learning lessons from relevant cases in the NAFTA arbitral practice,U.S.and Canada has greatly changed the specific provisions as to F&E standard in their new Model BITs.This article introduces and comments on the new provisions and probes into the characteristics as well as the underlying reasons for the developments of F&E standard.This article also analyses the defects and loopholes of F&E standard provisions of Sino-foreign BITs,as well as the risks China would be confronted.Based on that,the article makes some recommendations to improve F&E and its relevant provisions.
