PwC China faces 6-mth business ban, large fine over Evergrande audit, sources say


HONG KONG: Chinese regulators will likely order business suspension for a big part of PricewaterhouseCoopers' auditing unit in mainland China for six months, as part of punishment for its work on troubled property developer Evergrande, five sources said.

The business ban is expected to be imposed on PwC Zhong Tian LLP, the registered accounting entity and the main onshore arm of PwC in China, said the sources, who have knowledge of the matter but declined to be named as the information was private.
