DUE DILIGENCE, NEGOTIATION & M&A

Know whether the asset is executable before you sign

Your technical team already knows what is in the ground. What decides the transaction is whether the project can be permitted, who has to be negotiated with, and how long it will actually take.

The problem

An investment committee receives three technical reports and no document answering the question that actually decides the deal: can this asset be operated here, under this regulation, within the timeline in the financial model?

Neither the engineering firm nor the Big Four nor the law firm delivers that answer as a package. The first treats it as a technical component, the second as generic risk, the third produces an eighty-page memorandum nobody on the committee reads in full.

The Regulatory Admissibility Opinion exists to fill that gap, and it is designed to be read end to end in twenty minutes.

What it includes

Regulatory risk matrix

Between 12 and 18 risks graded by severity and likelihood, each with its mitigation and its owner.

Realistic permitting schedule

Benchmarked against actual environmental assessment times rather than statutory reference periods, with the critical path marked.

Counterparty map

Who the seller really is, what informal commitments exist with authorities and communities, what litigation is latent.

Inherited exposure

What liability under Chile's corporate criminal liability and economic crimes statutes transfers with the asset.

Three scenarios

Base, delay and blockage, with impact quantified in months and in capex.

Signed recommendation

One page: proceed, proceed subject to conditions, or do not proceed.

Fixed, closed price with no hourly billing. Guaranteed turnaround from receipt of complete background material. The full value of the package is credited against the following mandate if you engage us within six months. Delivered as a signed document plus a 60-minute presentation session.

Who it is for

Foreign buyers writing cheques of US$50 to US$300 million, infrastructure funds, and business development teams that need an answer inside the exclusivity window.

What comes next

If you engage us as advisers on the transaction, the full value of the opinion is credited against the mandate fee.
