South Africa’s mergers and acquisitions process needs a big change to truly help people who were left out for a long time. The current system often hides deals behind closed doors, letting only big, old players keep control while many talented newcomers are pushed aside. The committee wants to make buyer choices clear and open, make sure disadvantaged people stay involved for real, and give them better financial support. By creating public lists and stronger laws, these reforms aim to make business ownership fair and lasting. This new path could turn tricky deals into powerful tools for shared success and true economic transformation.
