Traditional environmental due diligence

Transaction support on EHS issues

Consideration of EHS (environmental, health, and safety) opportunities and risks has become customary during the due diligence and transaction process. Whether a company is completing an acquisition, turning around a business, restructuring or divesting itself of assets, PwC can shed light on key environmental and social matters that are critical to creating a sustainable business and protecting shareholder value.

  • I represent an investment fund that will acquire a company whose activities probably involve environmental risks and risks to our reputation. How do we measure such risks and reflect them in out business plan and ROI calculations?
  • My company is considering disposing of a business to an investment fund. How do we make sure that the environmental risks and future compliance costs are properly addressed and will not negatively affect our ability to sell this business?

Our service offerings meet the needs of both asset buyers and asset sellers, as well as management involved in asset structuring/integration following completion of a deal:
