Abstract
This chapter examines two of the most common, and arguably the most controversial, foreign investment protection principles included in CETA, namely fair and equitable treatment and (indirect) expropriation. The chapter takes into account states’ treaty-making experiences, arbitral practice relating to the interpretation of these principles and the legal-political interplay between the two. Through this analysis, the chapter attempts to demonstrate whether or not the CETA provisions, as one of the first ‘new-wave’ free trade agreement drafts, bear the potential of providing further clarity and advancement as to how these principles of foreign investment protection are defined, understood and applied in case law.

The exclusivity of this competence is, it seems, far from granted. On 16 May 2017, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) issued the Opinion 2/15 on the EU—Singapore FTA, holding that the EU would share its competence with Member States on (i) non-direct foreign investment, (ii) ISA, and (iii) state-to-state dispute settlement relating to provisions regarding portfolio investment and ISA. The full text of the Opinion can be accessed at http://www.mlex.com/Attachments/2017-05-16_2CW21X23B07N046Z/C0002_2015%20EN.pdf (Accessed 13 June 2017).

While Al Tamimi v.
