The B-BBEE Commission's Values

Our operational environment presents various challenges for us, and this include lack of proper corporate governance, fronting tendencies, falsification of empowering credentials, misrepresentation of facts to secure contracts and quick fix solutions to empowerment, all of which present a fertile ground for unethical conduct in and outside the public sector. Having considered this environment and our goal of operating a credible and effective regulatory entity, we have agreed and committed ourselves to live by the following equally important values:
