Abstract
In March 2018 the Council of the European Union gave the Commission a mandate to negotiate a Multilateral Investment Court. Furthermore, since 2017 the UNCITRAL Working Group III is discussing different options of a reform of Investor State Dispute Settlement. This report assesses both the option of a two-tiered Multilateral Investment Court (MIC) and of a Multilateral Investment Appellate Mechanism (MIAM). Both models provide for a permanent, pre-appointed judiciary according to rule of law standards.
