Institutions and mechanisms for settlement of international investment disputes are manifold. For sure, rules, principles and core standards for decisions at international level laid down in various documents of public international law are widely agreed upon in general but are rather vague in determining applicable law in specific cases. So, complementing the discussion of the general framework for international investment law in the first part of this study (RiA 2020, 3), the focus will now change to the “architecture” of settlement because effective functioning of judicial, arbitral and (other non-judicial) alternative dispute resolution procedures is most important for an attractive climate for sustainable investment. Although there are many similarities between both concepts, it is necessary to separate mechanisms for private (commercial) arbitration from intergovernmental institutions which deal with ISDS issues.
