International  protection for Investors
 Many businessmen and investors in the world are ignorant of the fact that they have international protection for their investments in any other countries under bilateral and collective investment protection agreements between countries, according to which the investor, when exposed to any loss in his investment or any injustice from the country hosting the investment, is entitled to receive compensation for the investment in addition to the values ​​of the investment assets through an application submitted to the Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes of the World Bank (ICSID) or the settlement of investment disputes in accordance with the rules of the United Nations Uncitral.
 The International law firm of Dr. Ezzat Youssef is one of the few and leading offices specialized in resolving investment disputes through international arbitration and has great experience in dealing with investment agreements and procedures for the investor to obtain compensation for any loss incurred by his investment in any country.
 Therefore, the investor must resort to a specialist before entering into an investment in any country to find out whether there are investment agreements that protect him or not.
In the event that any disputes arise regarding his investment, he should resort to an office specialized in international arbitration to obtain compensation for any damages happened to his investment.
He is free to resort to the internal judiciary in the state or to one of the aforementioned arbitration centers in accordance with what is specified in the investor protection agreement.
 It is worth noting that it is not required to stipulate resorting to international arbitration in investor contracts with the country hosting the investment because it is a supposed protection for all investors in other countries in accordance with investment agreements between countries.
