The article examines the future of investment arbitration in the EU legal order following the European Court of Justice’s (ECJ) Opinion 1/17, which endorsed the EU’s new Investment Court System (ICS) as compatible with EU law. It reflects on the shift from traditional Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) to the ICS, exploring the implications of this change for EU law and international investment law at large. The article discusses the potential legal consequences of Opinion 1/17, suggesting that ISDS may still be permissible under EU law, but subject to certain conditions aligned with judicial independence.

Abstract

The article examines the future of investment arbitration in the EU legal order following the European Court of Justice’s (ECJ) Opinion 1/17, which endorsed the EU’s new Investment Court System (ICS) as compatible with EU law. It reflects on the shift from traditional Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) to the ICS, exploring the implications of this change for EU law and international investment law at large. The article discusses the potential legal consequences of Opinion 1/17, suggesting that ISDS may still be permissible under EU law, but subject to certain conditions aligned with judicial independence.
