1. What is a Beneficial Owner?
A Beneficial Owner (BO) is the real person who ultimately owns or controls your company.
It’s the person who:
- Owns 25% or more of the shares, OR
- Controls 25% or more of the voting rights, OR
- Can appoint/remove most directors, OR
- Exercises significant control.

Example: If Gertrude owns 60% of Deep Silver Motive Investments Pty Ltd, Gertrude is the Beneficial Owner.
2. Why does C**A require it?
Under the Companies Act [Cap 42:01], every company must declare BOs on the Beneficial Ownership Register.
Purpose:
1. Transparency – Banks, LEA, PPADB know who really benefits.
2. Compliance – Avoid fines and suspension.
3. Credibility – Builds trust with funders and clients.
4. Due Diligence – Faster approvals for accounts, funding, tenders.
3. How to appoint a Beneficial Owner
Use BO Form – Declaration of Beneficial Ownership on OBRS:
1. Identify who owns 25%+ or controls the company.
2. Collect: Full name, Omang/Passport No, address, DOB, contact, date they became BO and Place of Birth.
3. Pass a Board Resolution approving the declaration.
4. Submit BO Form
5. Update within 14 days if ownership changes.

Note: Even sole directors/shareholders must declare themselves as BO.

4. Common Mistakes
- Putting your lawyer/secretary as BO
- Leaving it blank
- Not updating after share changes
- Confusing BO with Director

5. Quick Checklist
☐ Do I know who owns 25%+?
☐ Do I have certified ID copies?
☐ Have I filed Form 23B?
☐ Will I update C**A within 14 days if it changes?

Bottom line: Declaring your Beneficial Owner keeps your company compliant and bank-ready. Skip it, and you’ll hit a wall with banks, funding, and tenders.

No Financials = No Loan. No Tender. No Growth 📊

Banks, BURS, PPADB, and serious investors all ask for ONE thing first:
“Can we see your Financial Statements?”

If you’re still running your business from a notebook or bank app screenshots… you’re losing money.

As BICA Registered Non-Audit Accounting Technicians, we prepare:

✅ BICA-Compliant Financial Statements – accepted by Banks & BURS
✅ Management Accounts– know your profit monthly, not yearly
✅ Cash Flow Statements – stop “profitable but broke” syndrome
✅ Loan & Tender Packs – we package everything banks ask for

Financials aren’t just for “big companies”. They’re for companies that want to become big.

C**A just fined a company P5,000 for this one mistake…

By law, EVERY company in Botswana MUST have a Company Secretary.
No secretary = Annual Returns rejected = Penalties + Deregistration risk.

“But I’m a small business, do I still need one?”
Yes. Even 1-director companies need a secretary. C**A doesn’t care how small you are.
