Overview   

B-BBEE codes have remained largely unchanged since 2013. However, on 31 May 2019, the Department of Trade and Industry released gazetted changes to the Amended Generic B-BBEE Codes of 2013.  

These changes are quite significant and must be implemented by 1 December 2019! Every B-BBEE practitioner, accountant and stakeholder must have thorough understanding of the amendments by this date.
