PwC Troubles in China Deepen With Exit of Hong Kong Partners

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP troubles are now deepening in Hong Kong as the firm is wrestling with the consequences of its audits of China Evergrande Group.

Over the coming month, at least 10 partners in the city are poised to leave, adding to the 20 that have already exited the firm in the past six months, according to people familiar with the matter. On the Chinese mainland, some 77 partners have left their roles since December, according to filings with the unified supervision platform of the Chinese CPA profession.
