Abstract: The international investment regime is changing, both as to substantive protections and ISDS restructuring. Are USMCA's changes a new "gold standard?" This Perspective doubts, since they are the result of various political pressures that have led to abolishing ISDS with Canada, while introducing a double regime with Mexico.
