South Africa’s ESG bar has moved. Is your business ready?

ESG is no longer simply a sustainability conversation, it is becoming an increasingly important governance, risk and business-performance issue.

With evolving governance expectations, JSE sustainability guidance and regulatory developments, organisations are facing greater scrutiny from boards, investors, customers and supply chains.

The question is no longer “Are we doing ESG?”

It’s:

“Can we demonstrate that we are managing ESG risk, monitoring our exposure and making informed decisions?”

At RMG, we help organisations move beyond ESG compliance and towards practical, measurable and continuously monitored ESG risk management.

Our approach includes:

🔹 ESG Risk Assessments
🔹 Supplier & Third-Party Due Diligence
🔹 Continuous ESG Monitoring
🔹 Board-Ready ESG Insights

Most organisations know who their suppliers are. Far fewer have a complete view of the risks those suppliers carry.

Supplier information sits with Procurement, compliance records with Legal, risk ratings live in spreadsheets that may only be updated periodically, and insider risk is often not connected to the broader third-party risk picture.

That fragmented view creates oversight where disruptions, non-compliance and fraud can go undetected.

RMG’s Third-Party Risk Management platform brings it all together in one integrated view:

Complete visibility: See your entire supplier ecosystem in one place.

Stronger compliance: Stay ahead of regulatory and contractual requirements.

Smarter decisions: Connect risk, performance and procurement spend.

Greater resilience: Identify, anticipate and mitigate third-party disruptions.

One platform. A holistic view. Risk turned into insight.

Would you let someone into your home without knowing who they really are?

Domestic workers, estate staff and household employees often have significant access to your family, property and personal safety information, yet background verification is frequently overlooked.

Proactive due diligence can help you:

1. Confirm identity and legal work status
2. Identify relevant criminal history
3. Conduct appropriate financial or credit due diligence
4. Support compliance with South African labour legislation

The best time to identify risk is before someone is before you hire, not after an incident.

Protect your household. Protect your business. Verify before you hire.

RMG FORENSIC SERVICES GOVERNANCE NEWSLETTER

EDITION 28 – DECEMBER 2025

Introduction
As commercial crime grows more sophisticated and digitally enabled, King V provides a timely framework to strengthen organisational defences. This edition of the RMG Governance Newsletter examines how King V advances governance through integrated assurance, continuous monitoring, ethical leadership, and greater board accountability in combating fraud, corruption, and procurement manipulation.
We also share key industry trends observed across clients – from rising UBO transparency demands to the shift toward real-time monitoring – and highlight practical ways we support organisations in meeting these evolving standards.

Purpose of the Topic and Our Goals
We chose King V because it directly addresses the modern risks we have seen firsthand in client work: technology-driven threats, complex supply chains, and heightened regulatory expectations. Our aim is to equip leaders and boards with clear, actionable insights to prevent and detect commercial crime, foster ethical cultures, and build stakeholder trust in an increasingly scrutinised environment.

Babita Deokaran was a dedicated public servant known for her integrity and courage to speak out against corruption. When she uncovered evidence of public funds being misused, she refused to stay silent. In August 2021, shortly after dropping her daughter at school, she was tragically gunned down outside her home in Johannesburg.

Babita Deokaran was a dedicated public servant known for her integrity and courage to speak out against corruption. When she uncovered evidence of public funds being misused, she refused to stay silent. In August 2021, shortly after dropping her daughter off at school, she was tragically gunned down outside her home in Johannesburg.

News24’s powerful documentary tells her story through exclusive interviews with her family, unseen home footage, and an in-depth look at the network of corruption she exposed. It stands as a moving tribute to her bravery and her unwavering commitment to justice.

At RMG, we want to pay tribute to everyone involved in the investigation and committed to bringing the truth to the surface — to those who continue to stand for integrity, accountability, and justice in honour of Babita Deokaran’s legacy.
