PwC in the EU

Who we are

PwC is a tech-forward, people-empowered network. Across audit and assurance, tax and legal, deals and consulting we help clients build, accelerate and sustain momentum.

We have a locally owned firm in each of the 27 member states of the European Union, operating from over 200 locations across the EU, in capital cities, regional centres, and smaller towns. In 2024, our total employee headcount in the EU member states was 85,972. We support 34,000 organisations, including SMEs, NGOs and governments, as well as 93% of the Europe S&P 350.

Each PwC firm is owned and run by partners in the region so decisions are made locally, rather than by a head office. This enables local client needs to be met and communities to prosper, all while the firms adhere to common standards of quality and behaviour.

Our purpose and impact

The work our people in the EU undertake is varied and far-reaching. From helping to drive the green transition, to upskilling European youth, to supporting economic development via the use of AI, we are contributing towards a stronger, more successful Europe.

Contributing to EU policy dialogues

At PwC, we find it important to play a constructive role in the debates shaping auditing, corporate reporting, tax legislation, public procurement and corporate governance around the world. We see our role as one to help inform the debate, bring our expertise and perspectives to the table, and ask questions to help advance discussions.

PwC actively engages in communication activities to bring relevant PwC studies and surveys to the attention of EU policymakers. We regularly host events in Brussels, featuring distinguished guests to facilitate dialogue on key policy issues such as on skills, labour market, EU competitiveness and taxation for growth.
