Independent since 1950 · Cape Town

Your business deserves an advisor, not a call centre.

BGC pairs more than 75 years of audit, tax and advisory expertise with the one thing most firms have lost: a partner who actually knows your business.

BGC, Braude Gordon & Co · Independent since 1950

Our story

Big enough to deliver. Small enough to actually care.

Since opening our doors in January 1950, BGC has grown into a respected, established firm with 3 partners, 45 staff and a deep specialisation in non-listed family businesses.

We’re medium-sized by design: large enough to bring every discipline to bear on your business, yet deliberately small enough to keep the relationships our clients actually value.

Truly independent

We’ve resisted every approach to merge or amalgamate. Independence is our promise to you.

A South African firm

Employing and promoting on merit since day one. Our clients reflect the full spectrum of South African society.

Partner-led relationships

You deal directly with a qualified CA(SA) partner, not a rotating team of juniors.

Our partners

Every client relationship at BGC is led by a partner: three CAs(SA) with deep, complementary expertise across all our service lines.
