Abstract:
Russian companies doing business outside of the Russian Federation require special protection of their rights and lawful interests. Several methods of protecting foreign investor rights are available under the international law, including national courts and tribunals and commercial arbitrations (both institutionary and ad-hoc). International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes is a special institution established to resolve the controversies related to foreign investments. It was created under an international treaty and its decisions are not subject to sovereign immunity. The article considers ICSID practice regarding the definition of an investment, since disputes are related to an investment activity, which is a topical question when dealing with the determination of the Center competence. While the analyzed cases do not have the power of binding precedents, when the arbiters elaborate on the definition of a foreign investment they use specific criteria that could be relevant for the national law. Since international practice has a more specific definition of foreign investments than the Russian law, the author suggests that the former be taken into consideration when a foreign investment is defined in Russian legal texts. It could ensure better protection of the rights of Russian legal entities abroad.

Abstract:
The war, political and economic upheavals led to low investment activity, the curtailment of investment projects and the outflow of foreign investments from the Ukrainian market. In the conditions of the export of investment capital, without improvement of the investment policy and guarantees of capital security, business development and the inflow of foreign investments into Ukraine are impossible. Studying the specifics of state regulation of foreign investment activities will allow us to use the positive effects of foreign investment to improve the investment climate and develop investment infrastructure. The purpose of this article is to develop a system of measures to improve state regulation of foreign investments in Ukraine. The article examines the peculiarities of foreign investment activity in Ukraine. The scale of capital of non-residents in the economy of Ukraine is estimated. The following factors that reduce the country's investment attractiveness were identified: deployment of military operations in Ukraine; political and economic upheavals; significant withdrawal of foreign capital from the national economy; low activity of domestic investors under the influence of a number of macroeconomic factors; insufficient regulation of the investment process in Ukraine by the state; increasing internal and external debts. The shortcomings of the investment regulation system are identified: the inability of Ukraine to regulate legal relations and interests of investors with domestic legislation; ambiguous interpretation of provisions of legislative documents; a large number of regulatory acts that regulate the investment process; instability of national legislation in the field of investment; lack of guarantees of property rights of foreign investors; corruption in the investment sphere, etc. Measures to improve the regulation of foreign investments in Ukraine are proposed: harmonization of national legislation with the norms of international investment law; simplifying the procedure and shortening the terms of business registration and closing; introduction of control over the prevention of double taxation, currency exchange, admission to bank lending; providing regions with the necessary set of tools to increase investment attractiveness; decentralization of state regulation by attracting foreign investments into the economy of Ukraine. Key words: investment, foreign investment, direct foreign investment, investment infrastructure, investment climate, investment policy, state regulation.

Abstract:
There is no doubt that the investment climate in every country is conditioned to a great extent by non-legal factors. Nevertheless, many developing countries have, to varying degrees, relied on legislation as a means of attracting foreign investment. When Cameroon attained independence in 1960, it enacted an Investment Code that same year with the aim of attracting investment which the young state needed so much for the realisation of its development objectives. When after two decades the said Code no longer responded to the needs of the state, a new one was instituted on 4 July, 1984. The common feature of Investment Codes is that they contain various incentives aimed at channelling investments to areas which the authors regard as top priority. In this article, an attempt will be made to show to what extent the Cameroonian government has succeeded in its effort to direct investments to desired regions of the country through a statute wherein incentives cohabit with regulations on matters such as imports, exports, price fixing, foreign exchange, etc., which foreign investors consider as repellent. The study is subdivided into two parts. The first part is based on the Investment Codes and the second deals with the country's regulatory environment.

Abstract:
An important condition for the transition to a market economy is the intensification of the investment process. Among other factors, attracting foreign investment is crucial. For their effective use, an appropriate regulatory framework for regulating the legal basis for their implementation is required. It is necessary to determine the range and legal status of foreign investors, types and forms of foreign investment, legal means of protection of the rights of foreign investors. At the same time, the mechanism of regulation and protection of foreign investments is influenced by the legal regime of investment, which is established by the national legislation of Ukraine. The article is devoted to the classification of types of foreign investment. Money, goods and corporate rights, intellectual property, rights in them and securities rights, requirements for the exploitation of natural resources as a form of foreign investment are considered. The legal regime of the listed types of foreign investments are analyzed in detail. The evolution of legislation in the field of foreign investment regulation is investigated. Knowledge on foreign investment, is a legal regime as comprehended. The directions of improvement of the mechanism of attraction of foreign investments by established privileges in taxation of profits of foreign investors, legal support of the investment process is highlighted. Prospects of foreign direction and sphere of investment state policy of Ukraine are analyzed.

Abstract The Trade-Related Investment Measures (TRIMs) Agreement aims to balance the interests of developed countries seeking to protect their investments as well as developing countries trying to attract more foreign investments to finance national projects. This article assesses the TRIMs Agreement and the compatibility of Egyptian economic legislation, especially the provisions of the Investment Law No. 72/2017, alongside the impact of this agreement on the Egyptian economy. We conclude that Egyptian legislation as a whole is in line with the TRIMs Agreement, with the exception of some provisions enacted under exceptional circumstances in Egypt since January 2011. As a result of these circumstances, it is impossible accurately to assess the extent to which the Egyptian economy was affected by the implementation of TRIMs during the current period, since the policies adopted by the Government of Egypt have succeeded in increasing the volume of foreign direct investment to Egypt.

Abstract:
The subject. Foreign investments in the economy of states play an important role. As a consequence, priority should be given to the protection of foreign investments and the creation of favorable and stable conditions for the investors activities. This is especially important in cases of an unfavorable political environment, various internal and external conflicts. Crossborder investment activity is risky, and one of the possible risks is the nationalization (expropriation) of the property of foreign investors by the state-recipient of investments. This method of seizing private property is regulated by the state both at the international legal level and at the national level. The institution of (nationalization) expropriation of the property of foreign investors has its own specifics in Russian legislation in terms of terminological features and legal regulation with certain problematic aspects inherent in it.The purpose of the article is to determine the content and correlation of the concepts of "nationalization" and "expropriation" in Russian law; to describe the main international approaches to regulation of these issues as well as Russian model. The authors try to describe the existing problems inherent in this institution in private international law in general and in Russian legislation in particular and suggest possible ways to solve them.The methodology. The research was carried out using formal-logical, systemic, comparative, formal-legal methods, analysis and synthesis.The main results, scope of application. The content and correlation of the concepts "nationalization" and "expropriation" in Russian law is determined, it is proposed to consider them synonymous. International approaches to regulating the nationalization (expropriation) of the property of foreign investor are examined. The regulation of this institution in Russia is considered; certain problems inherent in nationalization (expropriation) are investigated, possible ways to solve them are suggested.Conclusions. It is now necessary not only to create conditions for attracting foreign investments, but also to ensure their safety in view of the development of cross-border investment activities. In particular, this can be achieved by establishing a detailed regulated procedure for the nationalization (expropriation) of the property of foreign investors, providing guarantees of compensation and legality in such seizure of their property. The institution of nationalization (expropriation) of property in private international law should be considered as one of the possible risks in the implementation of investment activities, which means that states should take measures to minimize risks in order to increase investment attractiveness. It can be achieved through detailed legislative regulation at the national level and a conclusion of international treaties (the “force of law” should be upheld, not the “law of force”).

Abstract:
A confluence of events has highlighted the role of sovereign wealth funds (SWFs) in recent times, giving rise to debate as to their role, governance, and how national investment regimes view their investments. Important amendments to US investment-screening legislation in 2007 have given rise to some concerns on the part of SWF investors. Apart from national investment-screening laws such as those of the United States and Canada, recipient countries of such funds’ investments may have also international or bilateral treaty obligations towards SWFs as foreign investors. Recent international efforts have also produced some ‘soft law’ instruments to address the governance structures of SWFs and recipient countries’ approaches to their investments. This article provides a composite picture of the recent US amendments, relevant international and bilateral treaty obligations, and the recent ‘soft law’ instruments that together have an impact on SWF investments.

Abstract:
This article discusses the notion of categories of foreign investments and foreign investor in the law of the EAEU member states through the prism of three levels of legal regulation: national legislation, bilateral and multilateral international treaties. The national legislation of the EAEU member states that regulates foreign investments, although is based on commonly used legal structures and instruments, within the framework of the conceptual apparatus can differ significantly in the recipient state of the foreign investments and in the state of origin of the foreign investor, which requires close attention and detailed study of the regulatory legal acts of each EAEU member state. Along with the rules governing foreign investments and the status of a foreign investor under Eurasian law, the EAEU member states apply the rules of bilateral agreements on the promotion and protection of investments that are in force not only between them, but also with the third states. In addition, there is also a multilateral international treaty for the four EAEU member states, namely the Moscow Convention of the CIS. This circumstance is due to the participation of Russia, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan simultaneously in three integration processes – within the framework of the EAEU, the CIS and the SCO.

Abstract:
Over the last decade, Ghana and South Africa have been among some African countries that have become more entrenched in foreign direct investment (FDI). The past quarter of the century has witnessed a remarkable growth in world foreign direct investment flows, coupled with the evolving investment strategies of national policies globally. This paper examines and compares the legislative frameworks and regulatory policies governing FDIs in South Africa and Ghana and the hurdles that need to be overcome to ensure smooth implementation of these policies. This has become evident in their current enactment of their regulations with the object of promoting investments in these economies. However, these jurisdictions have restrictions placed on their regulations; hence, putting frustrations on foreign direct investments. It appears that although in terms of overall statutory FDI regulations, African countries are on the average not more restrictive than other developing nations, some of these countries have obstacles that are both severe and restrictive such as land ownership, whether discriminatory or general in nature, act as an important deterrent to foreign investment. This discussion would focus on comparing restrictions imposed by legislation or policies affecting Soith Africa anf Ghana with regards to foreign direct investment. And disputes that emerge due to the restrictions among the jurisdictions.Keywords: Foreign Direct Investment, Economic Growth, International Law, Legislative Framework, Regulatory Bodies, Bilateral Investment Treaties.

Aim: This study aims to explain the entity of a trademark, its commercial trademark standards and judicial applications involved, the effect of trademark protection on attraction of foreign investments, aspects of trademark which attracts foreign investments within Jordanian and international legislations and the position of Jordanian law towards the famous and infamous trademark in protection without distinction. Implications: The trademark has become the center of attention to all countries including Jordan, and due to expansion in its use among products and services, countries and governments including Jordan decided to form legislations and laws organizing this purpose which guarantee the rights of all to attract foreign investments, taking into consideration the rapid technological development which influences expansion of the trademark and attraction of foreign investments, as this study shows the legal framework of the trademark and legal protection to it. Method: The researcher adopted the descriptive analytical method in the study to achieve the desired goals through the use of previous studies, laws, legislations, world and Jordanian agreements organizing this topic. Results: The study reached a number of results including: firstly, the trademark legal provisions in the Paris Agreement (1883), the TRIPS Agreement (1994), the Trademark Law No. (33) of the year (1952), and the Unfair Competition and Trade Secrets Law No. (15) of the year (2000) worked to protect trademarks, which helps attract foreign investments to Jordan. Secondly, expansion of the framework of protection of a trademark in Paris Agreement, where it extended to include the service mark side by side to a trademark and industry mark, and its registration and use include similar and different products and thirdly, Jordanian Trademark Law No. (34) of 1999 regarding trademark protection and preventing the registration of a trademark that is similar or identical, or shapes another trademark, or the use of another similar trademark upon registration that imitates international agreements, which upholds attracting foreign investments to Jordan.

FDI plays an important role in economic life. It is arguably an even more significant driving force behind economic growth than trade in goods and services nowadays.
China and Canada are both important FDI absorbers, but their FDI laws display various characteristics due to their different economic bases, political structures and legal systems etc. In order to guide FDI practice in the two countries and to draw on Canada's experience for China's FDI law, this thesis mainly introduces the FDI policies of China and Canada, analyzes the FDI law systems of the two countries, and expounds their general regulations on FDI.

The aim of this examination was to identify those evolving trends that are common to multilateral agreements some of which have been entered into by African developing countries, bearing in mind the debates and position of African developing countries. The study also aimed at examining the effects of these regulations on African countries especially with key provisions and the kinds of rights and obligations they confer on investors as well as the host country. As there is a need to create a balance between the interest of the host nation and the investor, the study also aimed at identifying if those evolving common trends can be used to establish a guideline for a standard bilateral investment treaty or on the other hand whether they can be used as a template for a multilateral agreement on investment.

Abstract:
Attempts by the international community to establish a comprehensive global framework for protection of foreign investment have not yet succeeded. The Russian Federation has remained aloof from these efforts. Its attention instead has been focused on the need to redesign its internal legal framework to accommodate the transition to a market economy.
The first aim of this thesis is to identify the major policy issues that inform the multilateral investment protection debate and to identify the motives that have influenced Russia not to participate. The second aim is to provide an analysis of the progress that the Russian Federation has made in reforming its internal legal framework to better accommodate and protect foreign investment and identify the deficiencies that still have to be addressed.

Full text
Abstract:
While investment incentives are increasingly employed by the developing economies, the vast amount of literature has failed to reach a consensus on the role of incentive regimes. A fundamental problem with the previous econometric studies is that they assume a mature market condition, under which the government should remain outside FDI competition. However, in reality, most developing countries lack a mature market and market-oriented regulatory institutions. This thesis adds to the conventional wisdom by examining whether and how Chinese investment incentive regimes have been successful in harnessing FDI during the last three decades. Like many developing economies, China is still in the process of building a market economy. The striking ability of China to attract FDI with numerous incentives presents a meaningful laboratory for examining the role of investment incentives. In contrast to most previous economic studies, this thesis does not attempt to examine the economic mechanisms of investment incentives. The basic presumption of this thesis is that incentive measures are instrument of state intervention with designed policy goals. A policy-oriented approach has thus been adopted, under which the role of investment incentives is examined against precisely defined policy objectives in a particular policy context. In China’s case, the efficacy of investment incentives is shown by a strategic and dynamic correlation between the investment incentive regime and its achieved development goals. In the given policy context, their functions cannot be replaced by more desirable instruments due to the political and economic constraints. Besides the economic evaluation, the study adds the legal dimension of evaluation on investment incentives. From a legal perspective, the regulatory space for developing countries is increasingly defined by the international legal regime. Investment incentives should be framed in a way to balance national interests and the level of protection required for foreign investment. The evolution of China’s incentive regime presents a good example to integrate global consensus with domestic imperatives. By unifying its income tax system, China adopted an incentive regime generally consistent with its WTO commitments and could be utilized to its advantages. However, serious problems inherent in the incentive system have already emerged in China, which may hamper its economic development in the long run. The thesis shows that the state’s capacity to channel FDI towards development goals is declining, as its intrusiveness has given way to arbitrariness. A top-down approach deprives foreign investors of their channels to communicate their opinions to the policymakers. The local arbitrariness and corruption in incentive implementation will compound the problem and hinder the inflows of high quality foreign investment. The thesis then proposes that the investment incentive regime in China needs to be upgraded into a more legalized system with non-discrimination, transparency, coherence and an effective monitoring mechanism as its central features. The legalization process would help to alleviate the negative effects of investment incentives. In the absence of a political infrastructure compatible with a rules-based system, the Chinese government needs to start with redefining the government-business relationship with a legal framework and reinforcing an independent judicial system.

Full text
Abstract:
To be fair and equitable are aims inherent in most legal systems, whether domestic or international, but are usually tacitly stated. With respect to foreign direct investment (FDI) they constitute a standard of treatment which lacks a clear definition. Nevertheless, the recurrence of this standard in conventional instruments makes it one of the focal points of this branch of international law.
The main goal of this thesis is to explore and understand the standard of fair and equitable treatment. To understand its definition, it is first necessary to undertake a theoretical analysis of the notion. Secondly, having assessed the general meaning to fair and equitable treatment, an attempt is made to assess the difficulties which have arisen from its incorporation in Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Finally, the thesis tries to assess where the concept stands in international law and whether or not it has passed into the corpus of customary international law.

Abstract:
AbstractCorruption is deeply rooted in Philippine culture. Much legislation was passed to strengthen the country’s legal frameworks to prosecute corruption cases. However, the abundant local anti-corruption laws have yet to produce the desired results. For most of the latter half of the twentieth century, the Philippines relied on protectionist policies conducive to corruption to shelter its domestic economy from the burgeoning highly competitive international markets. The succeeding adoption of trade liberalization policies enabled the country to attract foreign investments to bolster its economy. Unfortunately, it also exposed investors to the pitfalls of local corruption. The country’s first major investment dispute involving its main international airport was not a pleasant experience. The Philippines is no longer in a bubble. As an active member of the international community, it must adjust its law enforcement efforts, legal systems, treaty practice and business culture to match global anti-corruption standards.

Abstract:
Abstract Foreign natural and juridical persons who become foreign investors in the Russian Federation enjoy special rights, duties, and guarantees under Russian legislation. These comprise the subject of the present Chapter. Although the principal legislative act regulating relations connected with State guarantees of the rights of foreign investors who make investments on the territory of the Russian Federation is the 1999 Federal Law on Foreign Investments in the Russian Federation, many subjects of the Russian Federation have adopted their own foreign investment laws to augment or elaborate the 1999 Federal Law. Depending upon the territory where the foreign investment is to be made, the investor will need to determine whether there is relevant applicable legislation of the subject of the Russian Federation. Also of relevance is the 1999 Federal Law on Investment Activity in the Russian Federation Effectuated in the Form of Capital Investments.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses the admission and establishment of foreign investors. Admission concerns the right of entry of the investment in principle, whereas establishment pertains to the conditions under which the investor is allowed to carry out its business during the period of the investment. From the perspective of general international law, States are in no way compelled to admit foreign investments. The economic dimension of territorial sovereignty leaves it to each government to decide whether to close the national economy to foreign investors or to open it up, fully or with respect to certain sectors. This includes the right to determine the modalities for the admission and establishment of foreign investors. Views differ on whether it is useful to conclude treaties providing for guarantees towards liberalization or whether the flexibility inherent in domestic legislation subject to continuous review provides more benefits for the host State's national economy. The policy decision of the host State whether to grant a right of admission is fundamental for all parties to investment treaties. The chapter also looks at the provisions on investment promotion and performance requirements.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses investment promotion, facilitation, admission, and establishment. International law recognizes that by virtue of its sovereignty a state has the right to control the entry and exit of persons and things into and from its territory and also to regulate the activities of nationals or foreign persons and companies within that territory. A corollary of that principle is that a state is not required to allow foreign nationals or companies to establish or acquire an enterprise or investment within its territory. With respect to foreign investment, states have complete legislative jurisdiction to determine to what extent foreign nationals and companies may undertake investments, which sectors and industries they may or may not enter, and whether or not they must fulfil additional conditions in order to undertake and operate an investment within state territory. Numerous factors have shaped individual countries' attitudes towards foreign investment and investment treaty negotiations. One of the traditional aims of the investment treaty movement has been to reduce these internal barriers to foreign investment, particularly through treaty provisions on investment promotion, admission, and establishment. The second decade of the twenty-first century witnessed a growing emphasis in both international discussions and a few treaties on a new concept: foreign investment facilitation.

Abstract:
The reciprocal treatment between law and economics has become a fact in the real world. And that the influence and influence between them reached the point of putting the independence of each under question. The central role that the economy plays in the modern era, especially after the emergence of the phenomenon of globalization and the spread of transnational companies and the dominance of the liberal and capitalist intellectual current, caused the emergence of a special type of law and legal rules called economic legal rules that have characteristics that distinguish them from other legal rules. This is due to the special nature of the economy of change. Fast and complex. And it came to the point that some scholars claimed that the economy has become in the center and that the law lacks its independence and has no function but to regulate the affairs of the economy so that the latter performs its original and important function in modern societies. Although the opinion regarding the relativity of this independence differs among the jurists of the Latin school from the Anglo-Saxon school. The jurists of the Latin school in general recognize more independence of the law, while the Anglo-Saxon jurists go to the more influence of the economy on the law than the effect of the law on the economy. Especially in developing countries in need of development and development. That is why the researcher tries to apply the result of the structural role of the economic legal base on one of the economic laws in the afflicted Kurdistan region, which needs the most what it needs is change and development in both areas of law and economy. Especially with regard to investing and working with internal capital and attracting foreign investors, in order to remove some injustice from the oppressed people at a time when the reality was finally fair and gave them the opportunity to have their legitimate authority and enjoy the opportunity to rise and move to reach the level of progress of the world in the modern era and keep pace with what its brothers have reached in humanity from other peoples.

Abstract:
Due to the increasing pollution of the environment in Ukraine as a result of energy and water resource consumption, waste management and emissions, land use, and biodiversity by agricultural businesses, the issue of implementing a sustainable development strategy is becoming increasingly important. Research results show that the ESG direction is typical for a small number of agro holdings in Ukraine, which is associated with their attraction to foreign investments and loans. Most of Ukraine's large agricultural companies either do not report on sustainable development or are completely absent from the public space, indicating a low level of interest in implementing the best sustainable development practices. Our results show that one of the reasons that hinder the implementation of sustainable development principles in agricultural businesses in Ukraine is the lack of informational support in managing its environmental activities. The information provided to management for making decisions on the impact on the environment and climate with the aim of reducing and preventing environmental risks is based on an information base that is systematized and summarized in accounting. Taking this into account, the article explores the legislation of Ukraine and scientists' proposals on organizing the environmental aspects in accounting and the place of environmental accounting in the accounting system. In modern conditions of development, agribusiness has the following peculiarities: the presence of bioenergy resources that reproduce dynamic soil fertility as a result of the biological transformation, and the intensification of production that affects the state of the land, climate, safety, and public health. Therefore, the paper investigates the information support for environmental management of agribusiness enterprises, taking into account the peculiarities of assets that are the true wealth of humanity and multiply energy on Earth, as well as assets that have an intensive impact on the state of land and climate.

Abstract:
The paper deals with foreign direct investments (FDI) with a spe­cial focus on Bosnia and Herzegovina. Most of the world’s economies are in­terested in FDI, especially today in a globalized society. They can generate new jobs, and contribute to the development of new technology, and their special contribution is reflected in the stimulation of economic growth, development and employment. In recent years, Bosnia and Herzegovina made a lot of effort to attract foreign direct investments as one of the important ways to stimulate economic development and solve the problem of unemployment Considerable progress in this field has been achieved by adjusting the legislation and institutional framework. The costs, procedures and time of registration of craft-entrepreneurial activ­ities have been reduced, and various benefits in the field of customs and tax­es have been provided, which will be presented in the paper

Abstract:
Although in the last years the international community has adopted a broad approach, the definition of foreign investors and foreign investments is still very important for the development of international investment law. The nationality of the foreign investor, whether a natural person or legal entity, sometimes is decisive, especially in front of the international jurisdictions. The paper tries to follow the examples from bilateral investment agreements as well as from multilateral instrument such as the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) Convention. An important case concerning Bulgaria in past decades is also briefly discussed. The authors pay attention to some new moments re-developing the area of investment dispute settlement within the context of EU Mixed Agreements, especially after the EU-Canada Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement.
