Bilateral Investment Treaties Arbitration

Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) Arbitration is a legal process where two countries agree to resolve disputes over investments made by investors from one country in the other, outside regular courts. If an investor believes their rights are violated—like unfair treatment or expropriation—they can request arbitration, a private legal procedure, to seek compensation. This process helps protect foreign investors and encourages foreign investment by providing a neutral, predictable way to resolve disputes without lengthy court battles in the host country.
