Let’s not pretend that any attempt to buy out of BEE is going to contribute to transformation in South AfricaYou have to hand it to the government. The government is considering allowing companies to improve their BEE status by paying 3% of their revenue to the Transformation Fund. I give it nine hours before somebody coins the term “white tax” and pits it against “white monopoly capital” in the South African rhetoric. We’re so bad at spending money that they can’t even hide it anymore. I’m sure many companies would love to increase their BEE scorecard, and if paying some money could do that, I don’t think they’d bat an eye.
