DUE DILIGENCE INVESTIGATIONS

During leasing, acquisition and/or merger of companies, an organisation may find itself in a position where it has unknowingly inherited the inherent environmental liabilities of a specific industry and/or organisation. Environmental risks and liabilities are therefore important considerations when purchasing, acquiring or owning an organisation.
It is essential for the purchaser or owner to be appraised of the actual and/or potential financial implications, environmental liabilities and future environmental obligations. An environmental due diligence investigation will form part of the financial and legal due diligence exercise in respect of the company being acquired.

In order to ensure that an organisation is protected from acquiring significant liabilities, TRES Consult (T) Limited can provide the organisation with a proactive due diligence investigation. Through proactive due diligence investigations, TRES Consult (T) Limited may assist organisations to make informed decisions based on the following aspects:

  • Identification of environmental issues
  • Assessment of issues in terms of level of risk
  • Quantification of financial implications
  • Status of environmental authorizations (including Water Use Licenses, Listed Activity Authorisations and Mining Licenses)
  • Assessment of commitments made in Environmental Management Plans or Programs (EMP)
  • Obligations and future commitments
  • Calculation of financial provisions
