Why does the PWC scandal matter?

The last few weeks have been dominated with headlines around the PricewaterhouseCoopers tax scandal. The consulting firm have found themselves under fire over revelations some senior partners misused confidential information provided to them. They used this information to assist and seek other clients - telling them they could avoid paying more tax. The company’s Australian CEO has quit, nine senior partners have been stood down, and as more is revealed, more questions seem to surface. So, it seemed like the perfect thing to cover on The Dive.  Today Sascha is joined by Tom Crowley from The Daily Aus to dig into this topic further - she asks - What exactly is the PwC tax scandal - and why does it matter?
