GLOBAL accounting “big four” firm PwC is pulling out of Fiji after 60 years of offering support across Audit & Assurance and Tax services to multiple industries.

In a statement issued this week, the Fiji firm revealed they were parting ways amicably and that it will now join the Grant Thornton network from next month.

“My colleagues and I are delighted to be joining the Grant Thornton network. The Grant Thornton network is located in over 140 markets globally, with over 70,000 people and generates revenues in excess of $US7 billion per annum,” PwC Fiji’s senior partner Jerome Kado said.

“We remain fully committed to providing high quality work to our clients and stakeholders.

“There will be no change to the services we offer and our work for clients will continue uninterrupted.

“We believe that joining the Grant Thornton network is the right strategy at this time for our clients and for our people whose hard work and dedication are the bedrock of our success both now and into the future.”

He said the PwC Network will no longer have any ongoing business in Fiji but will still maintain a strong presence in the region and serving a wide range of both local and international clients from other offices across the region.

It has been mutually agreed that PwC Fiji will leave the PwC Network on December 6, 2024 and officially join the Grant Thornton network on December 7, Mr Kado added.
