The Botswana Development Corporation (BDC) has stressed that it is not disposing of its 40% shareholding in Peermont Global Botswana, the group that operates several hotels and casinos in Gaborone and Francistown.

The Competition and Consumer Authority (CCA) recently granted Sun International approval to take over Peermont Holdings, which indirectly owns 60% of Peermont Global Botswana. However, the BDC, which owns the balance of the shares, will retain its 40% shareholding in the hotel and leisure resort group.

“After the transaction, BDC will continue to own 40% of Peermont Global Botswana Limited, ensuring its continued significant stake in the operations of these key properties,” BDC Head of Corporate Affairs, Boitshwarelo Lebang-Kgetse said in a statement.
