Lender Liability is a new and potentially devastating aspect of environmental liability that all those advising corporates and Financial Institutions must be aware of. Co-published by UKELA, the text covers the potentially ruinous litigation that can ensue from ignorance of environmental liability that can be attached to most asset classes, the US experience, civil liability, criminal liability, seizure of profits, the issues for lenders, the relationship with the activity and with land, and self-protection in the form of safe lending and safe debt-collection. As environmental criteria gain increasing importance when deciding upon company acquisitions, insolvencies, and asset-security, this book is essential reading for any corporate, banking, insolvency or environmental lawyer, as well as accountants, bankers and receivers.
The work also includes as well tables of state and federal cases and statutes, rules and regulations. This brand new edition has been completely revised, reorganized and updated.
