Need- less to say, he has taken on a challenge that many of his predecessors, with their focus on diplomatic relations, were unable to achieve. Time will show whether this 45th presi- dent will be able to fulfi ll this challenge, but many American businesses are relying on him to not only improve their freedom to trade internationally but to protect their assets from loopholes that continue to hurt their business. Omissions and over- sights in international agreements can cost mil- lions of dollars and Ameri- can jobs. One particular example of what many consider an unfair trade agreement is the Australia-United States Free Trade Agreement (AUSFTA), which lets Aus- tralia claim it does not have to resolve any investment disputes with U.S. compa- nies in a neutral forum. This is counter to the majority of the 30 trade agreements between Australia and other nations that do con- tain investor-state dispute settlement provisions. The only countries that don’t have a specifi c procedure for investor-state arbitra- tion are Japan and the United States. One Firm’s Story Closing this loophole would offer a heavy fi nan- cial respite for business ex- ecutives such as John Cam- pion, CEO of APR Energy, a privately owned company that provides emergency electricity to industries and countries around the world. In late 2013, APR leased $70 million worth of gen- erators and other facilities to the Forge Group Power Pty Ltd, an Australian com- pany that had contracted with Horizon Power, a state-owned public util- ity in Western Australia. The project was designed to ad- dress a severe power short- age in that state. In February 2014, the Forge Group was placed under voluntary admin- istration liquidation and all assets were seized by receivers appointed by their largest creditor, the Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd. These assets included the leased property belonging to APR. The receivers claimed title to APR’s property based on Australia’s Personal Prop- erty Securities Act of 2009, under which all leased per- sonal property becomes “owned” by the bankrupt company’s estate to the exclusion of the lessor if the lessor does not fi le a registration statement. The legal claim prevented APR from using its own facility to produce electricity and caused signifi cant fi nancial injury to APR. This injury in- cludes signifi cant amounts of money simply to buy back the facility to use it, tens of millions of dollars of revenue, a substantial loss of value to the company, and layoffs. Moreover, the total economic loss from this specifi c action exceeds $260 million for APR. The recourse APR cur- rently has for this fi nancial loss is uncertain because Australia has rejected APR’s demands to submit the dis- pute to arbitration. As this suggests, the lack of a defi ned procedure under the AUSFTA appears to be prejudicial to U.S. companies and banks. What Can Be Done It is hoped by many American businesses and fi nancial institutions that the recent meeting be- tween President Trump and the Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull will mean the start of a re- negotiation of what may look like a minor detail in a large trade agreement but that has the potential to cost company’s revenue and American workers their jobs. Many people are ask- ing their legislators what they think of this issue.
