1. Protections Against Direct and Indirect Expropriation - How the United States and the European Union use Sanctions and Bilateral Investment Treaties to Protect Intellectual Property
Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för handelsrättSammanfattning : This paper presents an overview of how the United States and the European Union use their sanctions and Bilateral Investment Treaty policies to protect intellectual property rights overseas from expropriation. Both territories’ policies vary, with American rightsholders more capable of protecting their overseas intellectual property through the United States’ sanctions policy; European Union investors, conversely, are more likely to benefit from Bilateral Investment Treaties signed by the Member States and third countries.

2. Charting fossil fuel investment protection in the EU beyond the Energy Charter Treaty
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Juridiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Juridiska fakultetenSammanfattning : Under international law, foreign direct investments are protected by a patchwork of bilateral or multilateral investment treaties. International investment agreements have been criticised for protecting foreign direct fossil fuel investments and limiting the regulatory space of host states, thus creating obstacles for a green transition.

3. Skiljeförfaranden vid EU-interna investeringstvister - En analys av rättslägets utveckling efter domen C-284/16 Achmea
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Juridiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Juridiska fakultetenSammanfattning : I C-284/16 Achmea slog EU-domstolen fast att en skiljeklausul i ett bilateralt investeringsavtal mellan två medlemsstater i den Europeiska unionen var ogiltigt och att den skiljedom som följde av avtalet därav skulle ogiltigförklaras. Domstolen ansåg att skiljeklausuler i investeringsavtal mellan två medlemsstater utgör en metod för att undandra en tvist som rör tolkning och tillämpning av unionsrätt från det domstolssystem som unionen byggt upp genom fördragen.

4. BITing Back - A Study of the Conditions for Respondent State Counterclaims in Investor-State Investment Arbitration under Bilateral Investment Treaties
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Juridiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Juridiska fakultetenSammanfattning : In this thesis, I present a study of the conditions for a respondent state to introduce counterclaims in the same arbitration as an investor’s initial claim in a dispute arising from a Bilateral Investment Agreement (BIT). The study shows that although the most widely used procedural frameworks for arbitration explicitly allow for counterclaims, tribunals have adopted a restrictive approach to counterclaims, generally rejecting them, even when the arbitration clause in the relevant BIT has been drafted in a way that leaves open the possibility for the tribunal to rule on other disputes than solely the ones arising from an alleged breach of the host state’s treaty obligations towards the foreign investor.

5. Exchanging Bilateral Investment Treaties and Investor-State Dispute Settlement for the Acquis Communautaire : A three-stage analysis of the effects for investors, the level of investment protection and for the flow of Foreign Direct Investment on the internal market
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Stockholms universitet/Juridiska institutionenSammanfattning : Through the judgements of Achmea and PL Holdings, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has prohibited the use of Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) as well as the enforcement of any awards stemming from such procedures within the European Union (EU). This means that investors on the internal market can no longer enjoy the protection which was awarded to them by the protection standards inherent in the Bilateral Investment Treaties (BITs) which were previously relied upon by investors in the Member States (MS), and which provided for the possibility of ISDS.
