摘要
履行要求是东道国行使国家规制权对外国投资者及其投资施加的一种规制措施,对保障外国投资促进东道国可持续发展发挥重要作用。但履行要求对外国投资的规制,与以保护投资为根本目标的国际投资规则之间存在一定的冲突,引发了对国际投资规则应否禁止履行要求以及多大限度内禁止履行要求的分歧。鉴于禁止履行要求不是习惯国际法规则,包括投资协定和贸易协定在内的国际经贸投资规则对履行要求的规制、对东道国规制权的限制,取决于缔约方的发展战略、外资政策和具体权利义务配置。承诺与例外结合、权利与义务平衡,应是正确选择。中国"入世"作出的履行要求承诺,可能使中国面临挑战。
Performance Requirements(PRs) are in essence measures host country governments take exercising right to regulate on foreign investors and their investments,promoting the benefits of foreign investments to sustainable development in host country.There is controversy on whether or not and to what extent PRs should be prohibited owing to the dual feature of PRs and non-conclusive result of the empirical effectiveness assessment of PRs.Regulation of PRs by International investment treaties should take into account right of the host country to regulate,and general prohibition with various exceptions balancing rights and obligations between the host country and home country may be the best approach to tackle the issue.The WTO commitments concerning PRs China made may it difficult for China to develop its PRs policy.
