Global consultancy firm Bain & Co has been prohibited from doing business with the state for 10 years, the National Treasury said on Thursday.

“The effective date of restriction is September 5 2022 until September 4 2032 for engaging in corrupt and fraudulent practices related to a SA Revenue Service contract,” said the Treasury.

The ban comes after the Zondo commission of inquiry into state capture and the Nugent commission found Bain & Co had played a part in dismantling Sars. The Treasury said the restriction had been published on its website and database for restricted suppliers. The UK has also banned Bain & Co from government contracts for three years because of its actions in SA.

In August, Bain SA's managing partner Stephen York issued a public apology, saying: “Bain made serious mistakes in the procurement and execution of our work at Sars, and we kept working even as it became clear that the Sars leadership had a different agenda. Our work was used by others to further their agenda of state capture at Sars ... We regret playing any role in the damage to this critical institution.
