Environmental Due Diligence for Mergers and Acquisitions

Environmental liabilities such as contaminated land, non compliance and rehabilitation obligations can destroy value in a transaction if missed. This programme equips delegates to conduct environmental due diligence during mergers, acquisitions and asset purchases. The focus is on identifying, quantifying and managing environmental risk before a deal closes.

What you will be able to do

Scope environmental due diligence appropriate to a transaction and sector.
Identify contaminated land, compliance and rehabilitation liabilities in a target.
Review permits, authorisations and enforcement history for red flags.
Estimate the financial exposure of identified environmental liabilities.
Recommend warranties, indemnities and conditions to allocate environmental risk.
Plan post acquisition integration of environmental obligations and controls.
