Implementation Partner Selection
Building Sustainable ESD Fund Strategies
Partnering with you, we draw on best practices to build an impactful ESD strategy tailored to your business and supply chain needs. We enhance the fund’s activities through partnerships by leveraging our network of major mines, industrial companies, and banks. We aim to ensure the fund is self-sustaining, catalytic and meets your company’s BEE and social impact requirements.
Fund Implementation and Compliance
We design and implement ESD legal fund frameworks, including all necessary agreements, to fully comply with B-BBEE, IFRS 10, tax guidelines, and National Credit Regulations. By working closely with your internal departments and third-party advisors to integrate various regulatory requirements, we ensure your ESD fund activities are compliant and approved, giving you peace of mind.
Implementation Partner Selection
To successfully establish an ESD fund, seeking independent advice to select the right long-term implementation partners is crucial. These partners must possess both sector experience and capacity. Our approach includes jointly drafting an RFQ with clear evaluation criteria and sourcing ESD implementers, fund managers and funding partners. We manage the RFQ process, assist with evaluation, and handle final contracting to ensure the best possible outcomes for the fund.
