India’s First OECD Investment Treaty Signed With Israel

India and Israel have signed a new investment agreement to make it easier and safer for companies from both countries to do business with each other. This is the first such deal India has signed with a country from the OECD group (a group of developed nations), under its updated rules.
The agreement will help protect businesses from sudden changes in rules, give legal support in case of disputes, and build more trust between investors. It is expected to bring more Israeli investment into India, especially in areas like defense, farming technology, water management, cybersecurity, and green energy.
Indian companies will also get better access to Israel’s technology and innovation. This deal shows that both countries are not just economic partners but also strong strategic allies, working together on big global and regional issues.
For India, this agreement is a step toward making the country more business-friendly while also protecting its national interests. It could also serve as a model for future trade and investment deals with other developed countries.
