Background
Our
client, a Japanese trading company, conducted a due diligence process (DD)
prior to take a stake of fine chemical manufacturer in Thailand. We joined the DD team coordinated by a
financial institution as an advisor of Environmental Due Diligence.
Our Approach
Our
team visited the chemical factory to evaluate actual practice of environmental
management as well as to understand their facilities, manufacturing process and
environmental impact caused by their operation. In addition to the site visit and interview to the key personnel, a
huge number of environmental documents, including environmental permits,
laboratory testing results, accidental reports, internal and external audit
reports, were examined. The findings are
summarized in the factual report and briefed to our client.
Our Value
Our
work helped our client to identify potential environmental risks associated
with the chemical factory operation. We also pointed out some non-conformity of
environmental and occupational safety regulatory requirements. Worst-case
scenario based on our expertise was presented for our client’s information.
