Masterclass - Update: protecting foreign investment against political risk
In today's geopolitical climate, the landscape for cross-border investment is rapidly evolving. Governments are becoming more interventionist, protectionism and economic nationalism are on the rise, and investment treaties – the cornerstone of investment protection – are increasingly being terminated, reinterpreted, or replaced. Within the EU, shifting legal frameworks and the push for greater policy autonomy are redrawing the investment landscape and posing new intra-EU challenges. Add to this the surge in trade wars, shifting global alliances, sanctions regimes, and climate-driven regulation, and it's clear that 'business as usual' no longer applies – political risk has become an unavoidable feature of foreign investment.
Join our Masterclass, "Protecting Foreign Investment Against Political Risk", to explore how investors can anticipate, manage, and protect against political risk. Gain practical insights into strategic tools for mitigating exposure, including investment structuring, political risk insurance, contractual safeguards, and effective engagement with policymakers. The session will also focus on dispute resolution strategies, providing participants with a forward-looking toolkit to navigate today's volatile political landscape.
