Impact of China Evergrande Allegations on PwC
Recent reports have revealed a growing exodus of clients from PwC in Hong Kong and mainland China following allegations of negligence in overseeing China Evergrande's operations.
Reasons for Defections
- Whistle-blower Allegations: Claims of PwC ignoring misconduct at China Evergrande have raised doubts among clients.
