Deals

We help you get the best possible outcome from your deal: a deal that creates value for your business, the economy, the environment and society.


The best possible outcome with PwC

Our deals expertise in everything from succession planning to corporate sales and acquisitions is dedicated to delivering the best possible outcome. We can evaluate your business and clarify the opportunities and risks associated with any proposed transaction. Throughout the process we’ll provide trusted, differentiated insights to help you make the right decisions about deploying your capital responsibly to create sustained value.

Done properly, deals are a great way of creating growth, innovation, jobs and wealth. We work with you throughout your ownership to help you add value in multiple dimensions.

Organisations are increasingly held to account. Besides their financial performance, they’re judged by their impact on the broader economy, the environment and the community. So we help you do deals that generate stakeholder value and build trust. This includes assessing the legal and tax implications and reviewing your management style and corporate culture. With a carefully nuanced strategy, you’ll find it easier to get all the relevant stakeholders on board, including employees, pension holders, communities, regulators and the tax authorities.
