Risk Analyses
When you analyse the risks, you create opportunities.
We assist our clients with risk analyses in a number of legal areas, including environmental law.
With increasing demand for transparency and reporting in relation to ESG matters, companies are becoming more aware of their environmental impact. Delphi have extensive experience of working with all matters of regulatory questions regarding environment, climate and circularity and are happy to assist with expertise in these areas. We offer advice on regulatory matters, contact with authorities, permit- and application processes and matters regarding remediation.
In relation to new and future reporting and due diligence regulations, we offer advice on management of risk assessment, policies and compliance with a range of environment-related risks and opportunities, including handling of waste, hazardous substances and chemicals, as well as pollution, emissions, packaging, use of materials and circularity. We also offer advice on activities that companies want to undertake to contribute to the green transition, such as renewable energy production or environmental risk management in contracts or transactions.
