Abstract: There have been more than 30 cases under Chapter 11 since NAFTA came into effect in 1994. During the arbitration practices£¬the tribunals provided new interpretation on some traditional concepts. Meanwhile, different tribunals interpreted some substantial standards in different ways, which reveals the problems of the "investor-to-state" dispute settlement procedure. It can make improvement in the aspect such as procedure rules, organization, and articles interpretation.
