    • BBBEE structures driven through commercial sustainability

      The starting point for any legal or tax structure should be a commercially viable transaction with long term sustainability and empowerment objectives. We use BBBEE structures to assist Corporates and Private Companies achieve these objectives.

      100% Tax deductible

      All contributions are 100% Tax deductible in accordance with Section 12J of the Income Tax Act, simply meaning, that the business saves an immediate 28%. All SARS and FSB compliance are undertaken by Futureneers™ B4i without the need for the Corporate or Private Company to register, run and manage their own Section 12J Venture Capital Fund.

      All contributions qualifies for BBBEE ESD scorecard points

      Our unique funding structure enables Corporates and Private Companies to utilise Enterprise and Supplier Development ("ESD") contributions for funding its BBBEE initiatives. Over and above the 100% tax deduction, 70% of all contributions will qualify for ESD BBBEE scorecard points on an ongoing basis while the investment is retained.

      Ongoing support and compliance while being part of the B4i network
