Environmental Risk & Due Diligence Solutions for Commercial Lenders

Managing Your Environmental Liability

Lenders involved in commercial real-estate backed lending need to address environmental liability associated with each loan they originate. They have many choices for environmental due diligence, but most options do not account for pre-existing unknown conditions or for environmental conditions that might develop during the term of the loan. This leaves the lender with the risk of retaining potential environmental liability and the compromise of its collateral value.

Lender environmental insurance offers an alternative that can be used as environmental due diligence while addressing the above noted concerns by transferring environmental liability to an insurance carrier.
