PwC

PwC is one of the world’s largest professional services networks, often grouped in the “Big Four” with Deloitte, EY and KPMG. The firm provides auditing, tax and advisory services to corporations, governments and other organisations globally. Its purpose is “to build trust in society and solve important problems,” reflecting its role in enhancing reliability of financial and business systems. PwC operates through a network of separate legal entities across nations (each member firm delivers services locally but is part of the global brand/network). It serves clients across many industry-sectors, leveraging technology, data analytics, risk advisory, consulting and transformation services (for example, addressing digital, ESG and regulatory challenges). With over ~370,000 professionals worldwide and a presence in 149 countries, PwC has a vast global scale and influence. Because of its global operations, multi-country network, service-delivery across regions and major global client base, PwC functions as a multinational network (MNC) in practical terms.
