PwC’s latest M&A technology platform reimagines the way clients do deals

PwC and its alliance partner, Harvey, have extended access to their latest co-developed technology, giving clients direct access to customised M&A products and services.

Harvey, powered by PwC is already in use by PwC’s M&A, tax and legal professionals and is now being licensed to clients across its global network.  

PwC’s alliance with Harvey is exclusive among the Big Four and combines its deep domain expertise in M&A, tax and legal with Harvey’s advanced AI capabilities to deliver a platform that streamlines document review and analysis, and optimises workflows by collecting, processing and interpreting large and complex datasets to produce recommendations, predictions and data-backed insights.

One of the workflows developed using PwC’s proprietary knowledge has already been executed over 10,000 times, allowing users to analyse vast document sets to rapidly produce initial due diligence reports that identify ‘red flags’ - generating high value insights for clients and PwC teams.

PwC will continue to augment Harvey, powered by PwC to create tailored products and services for clients across M&A - drawing on expertise and learnings from thousands of deals worldwide.

As an increasing number of clients look to embrace AI solutions to optimise their deals, Harvey, powered by PwC is well placed to address vast market challenges and opportunities, with current users spanning multiple sectors and a broad range of disciplines including private equity teams, lawyers, underwriters and corporate development teams.

Working with PwC on its complex deals, global enterprise software company, IFS, is using Harvey, powered by PwC to improve the quality and depth of its insights by bringing key domains together to collaborate on data-backed investment decisions, accelerating time to value.

Beyond core investment workflows, the platform is also building trust and adding value to broader aspects of M&A. Leading global specialty insurer, Markel, is using the platform to analyse large volumes of data – augmenting its warranty and indemnity business, which serves a critical stage of the M&A process.

Following the roll-out of Harvey, powered by PwC for tax and legal clients, extending access to M&A clients is part of the firm’s broader strategy to lead the professional services market in the adoption of AI, helping its clients and staff to realise the value of next-generation technology.
