Policy coherence. There has been a dramatic proliferation of various international agreements in the past. Many of these agreements have been signed bilaterally, others are regional (such as NAFTA and Mercosur) or plurilateral. By June 1996, the total number of bilateral investment treaties was nearly 1160, of which two thirds were signed during the 1990s (WTO, 1996 and UNCTAD, 1996). Different agreements often have different coverage of issues and may even apply different rules. Separate negotiating initiatives increase the risk of inconsistent rules established in different agreements. The presence of different agreements also increases the costs of doing business, something that is often overlooked by the proponents of bilateral and regional approaches. This too is an impediment to FDI. In sum, the need for rule and policy coherence rough the MAI is now well recognised.
