In addition to more than 40 laws and regulations, each local government (not only prefectures but also municipalities) has separate regulations based on ordinances, guidance guidelines, etc., and these are frequently revised. It is extremely difficult to grasp in a timely and appropriate manner. However, the risks of failing to do so are extremely high, including administrative penalties and punishments, liability, and criminal liability.In real estate transactions and M&A, the discovery of environmental pollution or waste in the property to be transferred can lead to disputes, which can result in large losses amounting to billions of yen, as well as administrative penalties and other guidance from local governments.In this three-part video series, I will explain recent actual cases and provide practical tips on due diligence and local government responses during M&A and real estate transactions, responses in the event of misconduct, and preventative measures in normal times. The second theme is the practice of dealing with environmental pollution and waste scandals.
