Our deal analytics practice blends data scientists and deal professionals. Their sector-specific approach, applying proprietary solutions, data sets and subject matter knowledge, brings hypothesis-based diligence at deal speed. Our teams focus on improving insight, lowering risk and a clearer path to value creation.
Beginning with deal threshold questions, our PwC deal analytics specialists build analysis to support deal models and equity stories across the full deal continuum. Our global M&A data analytics community drives data-fueled, human thinking that increases value before, during and after your transaction.
