What happened in FY26?

  1. In FY26, we continued to make progress together. Working side by side with you, our communities, and our teams, we delivered joint projects and strengthened our focus on corporate social responsibility, inclusion and diversity, and team engagement.

    At PwC, we've continued our rebranding journey, consistently embedding our new brand positioning and identity to better reflect how we work today. It shows how we support you to unlock and protect value, and it gives our identity the right platform for the future.

    Explore the timeline to see the key moments where we focused our efforts and the impact those actions achieved.
