The performance requirement is restrictive measures by the host country in order to guide and regulate foreign investors. With the liberalization of investment, more and more regulation measures are governed under the clause of performance requirement of international investment regimes. The clause consists of two parts: one is performance measures and the other is a series of embedded exception rules. From the perspective of the right to development, the existing regulation method is far beyond the ability of using FDI by the developing countries to promote their development. The clause not only violates the principle of the right to development, but also lacks of fairness and justice. The article explores the internal legal connection between the performance requirements and the realization of the right to development, then the performance requirement measures are studied by trichotomy with the result of clarifying the different legal status of measures of attracting FDI and safeguarding the right to development. The article suggests putting the 'development exception' into the existing legislative regime of the clause, and adopting a fair and equitable investment clause that promotes the sustainable development of developing countries. |
