The Gleiss Lutz on International Arbitration podcast explores current trends in international arbitration. In this fourth episode, our experts Lukas Schultze-Moderow and Björn P. Ebert delve into the intersection of international arbitration and public international law. Human rights and international environmental standards from public international law have been enshrined in domestic statutes that, among other things, impose monitoring and due diligence obligations on corporate actors (see, for example, the German Supply Chain Act). As such, environmental social governance (ESG) is no longer just a moral obligation for corporations, but a legal one. Our experts discuss these developments and explore other areas of public international law frequently relevant in arbitral proceedings, sharing key insights and lessons learned from practice.
