A Brazilian court awarded a judgment against PPG, related to a past business divestiture, which could total over $700M. Westlake Corporation, which assumed the liability, is refusing to pay, forcing PPG into a costly legal battle and creating significant financial uncertainty and a major management distraction. This creates a need for legal tech, financial risk management, and insurance solutions.
Filing excerpt
On May 30, 2024, Westlake informed PPG that the Brazilian court entered an award against PPG (which remains the nominal defendant) that with prejudgment interest, fees, and costs would total over $700 million.
