Secure Ownership Points Through BEE Sale of Assets
BEE Ownership points can be secured under Statement 102 (Sale of Assets, Equity Instruments and Other Businesses)
Why a Sale of Assets?
A Sale of Assets allows you to improve your BEE Ownership by selling a commercial property (sale and leaseback), a business division or a subsidiary to a qualified Black investor. This may also be facilitated through the dti’s Black Industrialists Program (BIP) – a major creator of Black-owned and operated businesses that are at least 51% Black-owned.
Make a lasting impact on transformation
Transcend Capital’s approach to a Sale of Assets is a currency for change in South Africa – allowing you to improve your business and make a lasting, genuine impact on transformation.
We structure Sale of Asset transactions to ensure ongoing BEE compliance through mutually beneficial partnerships.
We go beyond the deal and focus on the people involved to build lasting meaningful relationships between you and the qualified Black investors. Together, we can all play a positive part in South Africa’s future.
Our Sale of Assets Experience
We have helped a number of multinational and large South African companies attain BEE ownership credit through sale and leaseback transactions with well-established and qualified Black and Black Women property investors from our comprehensive database.
We understand how to structure a deal that works for both parties. This results in you getting the optimal BEE credit in a sustainable manner. Robust legal documents ensure that you have certainty of tenure as a long-term lessee while securing BEE points.
We have worked with the major banks and have experience in financing transactions so you can get the best price, rental yield and escalation while maximising your BEE ownership.
This means that your business can thrive in South Africa while having a positive transformation impact.
