PwC was formed in 1998 when two accounting firms, Coopers & Lybrand and Price Waterhouse, joined together. Both of these firms started in the 1800s. In 2010, the company changed its name to PwC.
There is a main office for PwC in London, England. This office helps all the PwC firms around the world work together. It makes sure they follow the same rules and plans, but it doesn't work with clients directly.
