Environmental issues continue to rise up political, business, and social agendas around the world, spawning opportunities for business development. This book explores the emerging discipline of environmental risk management from a lending perspective, providing a clear analysis of the inherent risk across major legal jurisdictions worldwide.

The author guides you through developing an effective strategy, addressing legalities, and assessing direct risk. He then explores the indirect (credit) risks, the risks of financing an environmentally unstable project and environmental risk on the project. The book also contains detailed appendices covering code listings, international environmental risks, environmental clauses on loans, and more.

Envrionmental Risk Management and Corporate Lending is a practical guide, using case studies to illustrate the issues, and providing a wealth of information and 'tools' for risk appraisal and mitigation.
