The IMF has a history with the country of Pakistan which may be viewed as very problematic for the people of the country – depending on who you ask. In my research for one specific problem to write about pertaining this issue, I decided to encompass the entire project of Pakistan, which to many would be considered a massive failure on the part of the IMF and the ruling elite class of Pakistan.

Introduction: Many nations are opting for treaties that will facilitate trade for their investing partners. Consequently, it is not unusual to see agreements enacted to protect foreign investors through an independent international law system and arbitration to free these investors from local judicial pressure. But the recent Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) to facilitate trade between the EU and the U.S. along with its ISDS inclusion is the kind of trade everyone is questioning and has raised concerns. Despite that, negotiations are still undergoing to include ISDS provisions in TTIP. Is this, the type of agreement that will lead to a prosperous trade agreement? Establishing a parallel alternative method of dispute resolution system or ISDS, allowing private investors that are much representative of large corporations to bypass our local laws through private tribunals is a threat to our society, our public system, our democracy, therefore a threat to the establishment of our public policies. It is time to stop this manipulative agreement. In the next paragraphs, I will give my views as to why ISDS negotiations should be suspended by all means and why it is an impediment to the foundation of our constitutional rights as well as the mandated judicial system in place to promote the well-being of our society.

Inward foreign investment is believed to boost the economic growth of host countries directly through employment creation and capital formation, and indirectly through knowledge, technology, and information spillovers. It is argued that multinationals have superior technologies, technical know-how, and managerial and marketing experiences than domestic firms. Similarly, exporting firms, whether domestic or foreign, have advantages over non-exporting firms regarding access to advanced technologies that are more productive and efficient. However, multinationals and exporters may not fully internalize the benefits of these assets. The benefits may spillover to domestic and non-exporting firms through market interactions, competition, and public nature of the assets.

As we discuss in the second chapter, inward foreign investment is believed to boost the economic growth of host countries directly through employment creation and capital formation, and indirectly through knowledge, technology, and information spillovers. Multinationals have superior technologies, technical know-how, and managerial and marketing experiences than domestic firms. Similarly, exporting firms, domestic or foreign, have advantages over non-exporting firms regarding access to advanced technologies that are more productive and efficient.

The purpose of this essay is to critically discuss the court’s decision in Owusu v Jackson (C-281/02) and determine the impact of the decision on the systems of international trade. The aim is to establish how trading partners from different jurisdictions can settle a commercial dispute that may arise in the course of trade and which county’s laws are applicable in international trade disputes. The issues involving international trade are becoming commonplace due to the effects of globalisation and the ensuing economic crisis. The handling of these cross-border commercial disputes takes different shapes depending on the forum in which litigation of the disputes is conducted. The country of jurisdiction affects the guiding principles and procedures of the applicable laws and ensuing remedies. Additionally, it influences the schedule and the cost of litigations hence it has economic and legal consequences. Furthermore, the State in which parties are domiciled, the location of witnesses, language barriers and international relations undermine effective handling of cases. As international trade gains its significance due to increasing business competitiveness the disputes among the trading partners continues to increase due to a breach of business contracts. The establishment of international trade laws focuses on harmonising international trade and setting a common mechanism for settlement of the dispute between the trading countries. The parties may, however, disagree on

The next drawbacks related to the enforcement mechanism. Even though the GATT had operated dispute settlement system, there were significant delays of enforcement process due to the practice of consensus decision-making that could prevent the adoption of the GATT report. In international investment, the disagreement between industrialised countries and newly independent countries was not properly resolved because there was no appropriate enforcement mechanism. In particular, foreign investors were difficult to pursue claims

The responsibilities of these organizations can vary due to the needs of its members, such as monetary or trade issues. Moreover, the support these institutions provide may come in the form of various agreements to include the negotiation or enforcement of sanctions and treaties which will either stop or promote trade between nations.

Majority of the projects in Pakistan are heavily funded by foreign investors, whereas many projects are still under discussion among many countries who are interested in funding several projects in Pakistan.

But for a long time, there lacked evidence confirming that bilateral investment treaties increased inward flow of foreign investment to developing countries. In their influential and informative study on the impact of BITs on the amount of investment in developing countries, Eric Neumayer and Laura Spess used a large-n neo-positivist methodology of the absolute amount of FDI going to a developing country and the cumulative number of BITs a developing country had signed with OECD countries. They found that BITs are positively correlated with the amount of foreign investment because BITs reassure investors by guaranteeing treatment that is equal to and sometimes better than treatment afforded to domestic firms in developing countries.

Different countries have different concerns that need to be preserved through exception provisions. In drafting the Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI), France and Germany tended to introduce cultural exception to protect the domestic cultural industry, while the US proposed including national security, governmental subsidy, governmental procurement, and support for ethic minority into exceptions. The discrepancy on the content of exceptions constituted determinant accelerating the failure of MAI negotiation.
