PwC Germany - Japanese Business Network (JBN)

Doing Business and Investing in Germany

Germany and Japan have two of the strongest economies in the world, and relations between the two countries have never been so important. Both Japan and Germany face similar challenges related to their ageing economies, but they also share similar strengths in the automobile and pharmaceutical industries.

As Germany’s largest professional services firm, PwC Germany employs more than 12,000 professional staff, including several Japanese speakers. These professionals represent the interests of more than 400 Japanese firms in Germany with a wide range of services, from international taxation to mergers and acquisitions. PwC’s combination of technical knowledge and industry-specific experience offers Japanese clients the strategic support necessary to bolster their business in Germany.
