1. Situation Analysis – what were the critical issues for the company and what was the appropriate priority for each of these issues?

2. Perception of Interest – what were the interests of each of the three major participants (the company and the two investment banks)?

3. Capital Markets Approaches – review the financial issues with respect to the Bhopal crisis/ GAF takeover action; financial stress of the debt burden; financial restructuring.

4. Effectiveness – evaluate the actions taken in each of the three phases. What were the positives and negatives of the actions? Review the substantive positions taken by the three participants on the key issues and analyze their strengths and weaknesses.

5. Capital Market Options – consider the possible financial approaches available to meet the company’s needs in each phase, including the options considered and alternatives to these options. Provide an evaluation of the effectiveness and difficulties of the alternatives.

Following the sequential review of the three phases consider the following questions:

6. Evaluation – discuss the contributions of each of the major participants and provide a grade for their efforts backed by arguments, logic and information.

7. Conclusion – review the results of this case in terms of meeting the interests of the company and of the investment banks. Provide recommendations for alternative resolutions of the issues/ or support for the course which was chosen.

8. Ultimately Union Carbide lost its independence and was acquired by Dow Chemical.
Was this attributable to errors in the period of the case? Was an acquisition inevitable due to the company’s weaknesses in the crisis period? Could it have been avoided if alternative approaches were taken?
