PwC Ireland: Leading the way in Asset and Wealth Management

As one of Ireland’s largest professional services firms and the only Big Four firm with a dedicated Asset and Wealth Management (AWM) practice, PwC offers a comprehensive range of assurance, tax, and advisory services to meet the diverse needs of our clients. Leveraging the AWM sector expertise with data-led insight and technology tools, they provide end-to-end managed services, from strategy to delivery.

Their mission is to build trust in society and solve important problems. They focus on the primary challenges facing clients and organisations today: the need to transform in response to significant shifts, including technological disruption, climate change, geopolitical instability, and social unrest, and the need to establish trust, which has become increasingly fragile and difficult to earn.

Their formula is simple: they deliver bold ideas, human-led and tech-powered solutions, and meaningful experiences so you can focus on what matters to you.

Within their AWM group in Ireland, they have 26 partners supported by over 400 staff, all specialising in the AWM industry. Globally, they have an additional 22,000 asset management experts. As the leading professional services provider in AWM in Ireland, they offer deep expertise and experience to assist with your audit, tax, risk assurance, regulatory, consulting and advisory needs.

The AWM industry is constantly evolving through regulatory changes such as the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) II, Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR). Furthermore, operational developments through the adoption of emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Digital Ledger Technology (DLT) will reshape how firms operate in the AWM industry. Leveraging their intelligent technologies, extensive knowledge and global network, PwC help their clients meet regulatory requirements, consumer expectations and investor demands, and implement new technologies.
