“Suppliers who are CIPC registered will no longer be able to capture and maintain ownership information on the Central Supplier Database (CSD).  The CSD will reflect beneficial ownership from CIPC effective 24 May 2024. We encourage all CSD-registered suppliers to update their beneficial ownership at CIPC as soon as possible.”

Overview of the CSD Changes

Effective from 24 May 2024, all CSD-registered suppliers must ensure their Beneficial Ownership information is up to date with the CIPC. This change is part of the effort to comply with the General Laws (Anti-Money Laundering and Combating Terrorism Financing) Amendment Act of 2022.

What does this mean for CSD-Registered Suppliers?

Suppliers who have not updated their Beneficial Ownership information may face significant challenges, including:

Non-Compliance: Failure to update ownership details may lead to non-compliance with government regulations, which could result in penalties for your business.

Verification Issues: Inaccurate or outdated information can cause verification problems on the CSD, potentially hindering business operations.

Missed Opportunities: Suppliers may miss out on tender opportunities and contracts due to non-compliance or verification issues on the CSD.

Importance of Beneficial Ownership

Understanding and maintaining Beneficial Ownership information is crucial for transparency and compliance. Beneficial Ownership refers to the individuals who ultimately own or control a company. Accurate records are crucial for regulatory compliance and for establishing trust with business partners and stakeholders. Neglecting to file doesn’t just risk non-compliance; it can significantly prevent your company’s growth and reputation in both local and international markets.
