B-BBEE OWNERSHIP STRUCTURING

OWNERSHIP with Certainty

For many of our clients’, Ownership represents the most challenging element of B-BBEE Scorecard. Parting with equity and the associated loss of control, for family owned, privately held or multinational businesses is emotional and often not a consideration.

A fluid legislative environment and the challenge of identifying suitable Empowerment Partners aligned to your company culture, values and with access to capital compound the challenges associated with Ownership.

The impact of B-BBEE Ownership
(or lack of it) on your scorecard

Without Ownership, 25 points  are lost and your company will be discounted an Empowerment Level.

To achieve Level 4 or better, without Ownership, is extremely expensive or impossible.

Ownership, structured correctly, can turn Empowerment into a competitive advantage.

There is more to Ownership

Ownership features in both the Ownership element as well as in the Preferential Procurement. Companies are directed to do business with  suppliers that have  specific Ownership attributes (e.g Majority Black Owned, >30% Black Woman Owned).

The more Preferential Procurement points you can deliver to your customers the more attractive you are as a supplier. The impact of this is much more important than BEE level.

The numbers prove it

Empowerment level determines spend recognition.  Level 4 has a spend recognition of 100% vs 135% of a Level 1. This 35% pick up is the incentive of doing business with a more Empowered company. 35% is very little given the cost of moving from a Level 4 to 1.

A company that is Majority Black Owned  and at least 30%  Black Woman Owned will deliver almost 12 times the number of Preferential Procurement points than a competitor of the same level.

A pick up of almost 1,200% vs 35% of Level 1 to 4.

Similar to any other corporate transaction

The decision to embark on a B-BBEE Ownership transaction, like any other corporate finance transaction, should be built on an investment case. 

The projected returns must warrant the investment of time and money.

Some considerations ahead of engaging with Ownership

There are many different Ownership options available.

Selecting the most suitable option will depend on several variables:

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Don’t Be Misled

Unfortunately, many Ownership solutions sold to clients are non-compliant.  The seller of the solution is not liable and all risk falls to the client.  Even an unsubstantiated charge of fronting (BEE fraud) may damage a company’s reputation beyond repair.
