One year ago, Open Secrets and @ShadowWorldInv1 submitted to @StateCaptureCom our investigative report, The Enablers: the Bankers, Accountants and Lawyers that Cashed in on State Capture.

The Enablers focuses on the role of banks, accounting firms, consultants and lawyers in facilitating criminal conduct that formed part of the #StateCapture enterprise.
A failure to interrogate, fully and energetically, the private enablers of this enterprise would leave the work of the State Capture Inquiry (Zondo Commission) incomplete.
This investigative report shows that the systems that enable grand corruption and #StateCapture are global in nature, and that private sector elites are central to the problem. Directors of complicit corporations in South Africa and abroad must be held to account too.
The launch of the Enablers was hosted at the Sandton Library as Sandton is an important location as many of the bankers, accountants and lawyers that facilitated #statecapture are all located there. We call it the Sandton State Capture Mile.
We produced a few fact-sheets based on the report.

The #StateCaptureEnablers fact-sheet for Transnet shows the alleged role played by @HSBC , @StandardBankZA, @Nedbank, @McKinsey and Regiments Capital in the looting at Transnet.

If Transnet was a golden goose for the Gupta family & their associates, then global banking giant HSBC played the role of tending their illicit nest eggs.

In the case of Estina, @StandardBankZA & @FNBSA have questions to answer.

Big consulting firms "take no credit and they accept no blame". This is true of @McKinsey- the only private sector firm to respond to our report. Read about the conduct at Eskom and Transnet and their response to us here: https://t.co/hLc9N5AvzE
