What regulatory risks are mentioned in the case study?

• A. Administrative and tax risks
• B. Environmental and safety risks related to hazardous e-waste but no specific laws or compliance costs outlined
• C. Market competition risks
• D. Regulatory penalties clearly defined

Answer: (B)

The question tests how regulatory risk is described in a case study. The case highlights environmental and safety concerns arising from hazardous e-waste as the regulatory risk, but it does not spell out the specific laws, compliance requirements, or costs involved. That combination—environmental and safety risks tied to hazardous e-waste with no explicit legal provisions or penalties outlined—is why this option fits best.

Administrative and tax risks would require details about taxes or administrative regulatory processes that aren’t mentioned. Market competition risks focus on competitors and market dynamics rather than regulatory requirements. The idea that penalties are clearly defined contradicts the case’s note that no specific laws or compliance costs are outlined.
