The restoring of domestic courts’ governance in international investment disputes has received considerable attention

whose participation requires overall planning in the protection of investors’ interests and the maintenance of the host country’s regulatory power

supervision and support of international investment arbitration

and the development of dispute prevention functions. At the same time

the participation of domestic courts also needs to face challenges such as increased politicization risks

a benign interaction between justice and arbitration yet to be formed

and insufficient governance capabilities. Based on the relatively more urgent need in the protection of Chinese overseas investment interests

a restrictive stance should be adopted for the participation of domestic courts in dispute settlement. Meanwhile

the judicial review and procedural intervention system of international investment arbitration by Chinese courts should be improved. The construction of dispute prevention functions should be actively explored in the application and interpretation of investment laws

and in the construction of dispute risk information collection and early warning mechanisms.
