BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REGISTER WEBINAR 

Thank you @theCIPC, everyone who wants to know more about the requirements regarding the submission of Beneficial Ownership (BO) information and securities registers to the CIPC should find this presentation and the extensive questions and answer section of the video helpful.

What is the position with external companies? An external company is a mirror image of its parent and is distinguished from a company by virtue of the definitions in section 1. Sections 50 and 33(1) not applicable and only 33(2) and reg 7A applicable to external co.

Please can the CIPC provide definitions for terms like "Original Mandate" and "Disclosure Form". I've spoken to dozens of people and googled it profusely and cannot get a straight answer out of anyone. Even the CIPC call center cannot properly define these terms and what these documents need to contain.

The beneficial ownership only applies to shares that have voting rights, correct? Shareholders without voting rights are not considered a beneficial owner, irrespective of the amount of shares they have in the Company?

How do you submit a BO for an NPC without Members?

Is there an example of the disclosure form that is required?

Our company is a wholly foreign owned company with international shareholders and listed on a securities exchange (SIX Swiss Exchange). Do we still need to submit the information. And if so, will the company director based in RSA, but not a shareholder, details suffice?

When will you have another session?

what documents must be uploaded please for every company...

Please can you advise where I can get the notes / guidelines for BO.
