Enhancing Corporate Climate Responsibility: The Intersection of Mandatory Sustainability Due Diligence Laws and International Investment Agreements
Original language description
International investments play a significant role in achieving the goals outlined in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and the temperature targets of the 2015 Paris Agreement. Nevertheless, investor responsibilities and sustainability issues are largely absent in most international investment agreements (IIAs). The traditional asymmetry in IIAs, which imposes obligations solely on States, contrasts with the developments in the field of business and human rights where emerging sustainability due diligence laws compel companies to undertake risk-based due diligence to address human rights and environmental harm arising from their operations. The contribution will examine the potential of mandatory due diligence laws, originating from the investor's home State and the host State, to establish investor obligations concerning human rights and the environment in the international investment regime. Specifically, the focus will be on investor responsibilities for climate-related impacts of its activities and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 13.
