This book provides a comprehensive and systematic overview of the provisional measures regime in investor-State arbitration, from the legal basis of provisional measures in investor-State arbitration to the purpose of provisional measures, from the categories of provisional measures to provisional measures suspending parallel proceedings, and from the authority of investor-State arbitral tribunals to grant provisional measures to the requirements for granting provisional measures and to the compliance with provisional measures.
