Cyprus Annual Review 2023

September 2023

CEO Message 2023

FY23 proved to be a defining year for PwC Cyprus. It was a year in which we were called upon to address a significant contraction in our revenue base arising from complying fully with the Global PwC sanctions policy, as well as from implementing locally, additional, non-sanctions related risk and reputation client retention reviews.

The overall contraction of our revenue base to date, from clients we stopped servicing due to the implementation of the aforementioned policies, was more than 20% of our revenues compared to the levels of FY22. In the face of such a severe commercial impact, PwC Cyprus took the decision to implement an ambitious growth strategy coupled with a business transformation plan with the aim of bouncing back by tapping into new sources of revenue and utilising operational efficiencies.
