We are excited to introduce Marcus Lam, our new Executive Chairman. Marcus brings a strong sense of purpose, strategic leadership and business insight. He will lead the firm to reinvent the future and bring to life our new strategy, The New Equation, to uncover solutions for our clients and wider society that deliver sustained outcomes and build trust for today and tomorrow.

With fundamental changes happening in the world, including technological disruption, climate change, fractured geopolitics, and the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, building trust has neither been more important nor more difficult. The most significant challenges faced by clients and stakeholders can only be met through multi-disciplinary, diverse teams. In the coming years, Marcus will focus on bringing the best of our people, capabilities and technology together to find new, unconventional and innovative ways to solve the toughest problems faced by our clients and the wider society in today’s operating environment.

Grounded by purpose and values, Marcus is a 26-year veteran at PwC Singapore and served as our Assurance Leader for the past four years. During his tenure, the firm focused on building trust and transparency in the audit profession through focusing on audit quality and technological enablement. He has also been on PwC Singapore’s leadership team since 2016.

"Countless Partners - past and present - have given me opportunities and guidance that have strengthened my perseverance and tenacity as a leader and professional. The cumulation of these experiences have taught me that to lead is to serve with humility."
