Uma década de política europeia de investimento estrangeiro – balanço e perspetivas futuras

Since the Lisbon Treaty, which came into force in 2009, the European Union has been implementing the new competence in the area of foreign direct investment. All European institutions were actively involved in this process. I briefly analyze the role of the Court of Justice of the European Union in this process, establishing the links between Opinion 2/15 (EU/Singapore); Achmea Case and Opinion 1/17 (CETA), explaining why they are relevant in the overall framework of EU Foreign Investment policy, as it stands today, and what measures are needed to have an EU policy that is more coherent and uniformly applicable to all investors in the EU market.
