Corporate Responsibility at PricewaterhouseCoopers: Market Place

PwC’s Corporate Responsibility in contributing to the economic development of the country consists in actively participating in various private and governmental initiatives to promote Luxembourg.

Promoting the Economy of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg

All together we work to promote the economic development of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg. It is for this reason for example that we have published “Why Luxembourg?” and “Luxembourg, a prime location for doing business”. The fact that both brochures have been translated into 6 different languages – including Japanese and Chinese – is a clear indication that their contents are of interest to the marketplace. A third publication issued with the Luxembourg Stock Exchange entitled “Why Luxembourg: VAT advantages for commercial companies” completes the series.

Furthermore, PwC Luxembourg has more than 20 full time staff involved in promoting the market place by attracting entrepreneurs, investors and people to the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg. But our actions are also addressed to assist local actors to develop their activities. Our studies on family business and cross-border companies are part of this concern.

Taking part to different initiatives to develop the Economy

We also actively participate in initiatives undertaken by the Luxembourg government and the private sector. PwC Luxembourg participates in private initiatives – notably within the ABBL, ALFI, CSSF, “Codeplafi”, 123 GO, and FEDIL – as well as conferences (“Journée d’actualités comptables et fiscales”, “Banking Day”, …) and training initiatives (“Chamber of Commerce”, “University of Luxembourg”, …).

We also are a founding member of the “Institut pour le mouvement sociétal” in Luxembourg (IMS Luxembourg), promoting corporate responsibility good practices.

Whether it be in Luxembourg, the Greater Region or elsewhere, PwC staff and partners can be found contributing to the growth of local markets as well as the diversification and promotion of Luxembourg’s economy.
