About Us

Building trust in society and solving important problems.

With offices in 151 countries and more than 364,000 people, we are among the leading professional services networks in the world. We help organisations and individuals create the value they are looking for, by delivering quality in Assurance, Tax and Advisory services.

Some facts about PwC:

• In FY23, PwC firms provided services to 87% of the Global Fortune 500 companies
• 129,829 people joined PwC firms around the world in FY23
• For the year ending 30 June 2023, PwC’s gross revenues were US$53.1 billion.

In an increasingly complex world, we help intricate systems function, adapt and evolve so they can deliver sustained outcomes for communities and society – whether they are capital markets, tax systems or the economic systems within which business and society exist.

Creating a common purpose will help to steer business through the next stage of evolution, as the systems upon which economies and societies depend are disrupted and evolve.

While we come from different backgrounds and cultures, our values are what we have in common. They describe the expectations our clients should have of us, describe how we work with each other, and hold us accountable to do our best. They guide our actions and enable our success.

Our five values set the context in which we strive to fulfil our purpose.

What do these values mean in practice?

When working with our clients and colleagues to build trust in society and solve important problems, we…

• Act with integrity
• Make a difference
• Care
• Work together
• Reimagine the possible

We’re a global network and this gives us the opportunity and responsibility to be part of the solution to global challenges. We’re committed to making positive and sustainable change, across our business and where we live and work.

We’re a global community of solvers. We think differently and work with others to make the world more resilient, more inclusive and more able to solve important problems.

What are our sustainable initiatives?

We’ve made a worldwide commitment to achieve net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and set near-term science-based targets. We’re decarbonising the way we operate and decoupling our business growth from our emissions. Our global strategy, The New Equation, commits us to also increase transparency, and help to develop robust ESG reporting frameworks and standards.

Our near-term science-based targets are aligned with a 1.5 degree climate scenario and have been validated by the SBTi. Our targets are to:

• Reduce scope 1 and 2 absolute emissions by 50% from a FY19 base by FY30
• Transition to 100% renewable electricity in all territories by FY30
• Reduce absolute business travel emissions by 50% from a FY19 base by FY30
• Commit that 50% of our purchased goods and services suppliers (by emissions) have set science-based targets to reduce their own climate impact by FY25
