Weakness

This section is available only in the 'Complete Report' on purchase.

Opportunity

This section is available only in the 'Complete Report' on purchase.

Threat

1. The need to comply to various country specific laws and regulations, can hamper the growth opportunities: Kuraray, as a chemical company, is subject to a variety of regulations, including federal laws such as the Industrial Safety and Health Law (ISHL), the Japanese Chemical Substances Control Law (CSCL), the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM), and the Poisonous and Deleterious Substance Control Law (PDSCL). It is also subject to environmental regulations in Europe, such as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, and Authorization of Chemicals). The company must comply with the Toxic Substances Control Act in the United States, and RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) is in place in China, which limits the use of certain chemicals. Though it is necessary for a company like Kuraray to follow environmental and personnel safety regulations, if these regulations become more stringent, it may jeopardize the company's growth prospects.
