Empowerment that matters

The South African BBB-EE policy aims to transform the economy to allow for meaningful participation by black people and to substantially change the racial profile of companies’ owners, managers and skilled professionals.

Not only is BBB-EE transformation important for your business as a corporate social responsibility but there are also tangible economic benefits that come with being BBB-EE compliant. The short-term benefits include access to government tenders, purchase a state-owned entity or entering into a public-private partnership. Long term benefits are more tied to the higher and more sustainable economic growth tied to the inclusion of the majority into the economic mainstream.

At GNP Capital, we can assist with empowerment solutions that best suit your business.
