Description

Political instability and poor governance in Latin America unfortunately are not new, but nowadays their impact in private investment has reached a peak, and one of the ways they manifest is by the notorious increase of controversies between governmental authorities and private investors relating to PPP projects, government contracts and investment agreements. This panel will discus the rise of investment and international arbitration in Latin America, the current trends and hot topics. Experts and renowned practitioners from the panel will share their experiences in this arena.
