To Help the New Administration Help Your Industry, You Need an Agency Strategy (Real Estate Finance Journal)

<p>On Wednesday, April 27, BakerHostetler’s International Arbitration and Litigation Team hosted an in-depth presentation on key issues companies, funders, investors and governments face when planning or executing a long-term project outside the United States. This session covered the following practical and strategic issues: </p>  <ul> 	<li>How to protect against Host Government misconduct, unfair or discriminatory investigations or arbitrary decisions, including demands for bribes. This discussion will include strategic considerations of investor-state arbitration protections under BITS and ICSID; front-end contractual protections and back-end enforcement; and the little-known, but powerful benefits of political risk insurance.</li> 	<li>Recent developments in foreign sovereign immunities protections that could affect implementation of the overseas project and enforcement in U.S. courts.</li> 	<li>Consideration of local content requirements and repatriation of profits from abroad.</li> 	<li>Review of sources of law that apply to contracts that may not be spelled out in the contract (e.g., UNIDROIT rules).</li> </ul>  <h5>Presenters:</h5>  <ul> 	<li>Mark A.
