Analysis of the upcoming Modernisation of the Trade Pillar of the European Union-Mexico Global Agreement
No full textStudy for the EU Parliament co-authored by Rodrigo Polanco:
The 1997 Global Agreement between the EC and its Member States and Mexico, together with the set of decisions taken in its framework, has been effective, and thus modifications of the agreement are mainly motivated by changes in the global landscape since it was first enacted. Therefore, broad considerations on how the European Union (EU) trade policy is shaped are extremely relevant for the upcoming negotiations with Mexico. In this context, the needs and expectations, both from the EU and Mexico, regarding any further agreements are examined, focusing in particular on areas beyond trade in goods and services such as procurement, investment, and regulatory cooperation. It is argued that the 'old' Association Agreements should be taken as models for any modifications, given their emphasis on EU-specific issues and their ability to accommodate the needs of Mexico in any deepened agreement

G20 International Investment Agreements and Guiding Principles for Global Investment Policymaking
No full textThis paper maps the international investment agreements (IIAs) concluded by Group of Twenty (G20) countries, examining whether there is a common thread between those countries with respect to investment protection and especially the G20 Guiding Principles for Global Investment Policymaking.
For that purpose, the author examines the most important provisions on investment protection in all available IIAs across all G20 countries. These include the scope and definition of investment and investors; the existence of establishment or pre-establishment commitments; standards of treatment and their limitations; and the main standards of protection, like expropriation, transfers, and umbrella clauses.
Finally, the author examines the presence of investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) provisions and their limitations and maps the presence of the Guiding Principles for Global Investment Policymaking in existing IIAs concluded by G20 countries
