EQT will support WTS in its next phase of growth, with the ambition to build a European, AI-native tax advisory champion. Key priorities include further accelerating the AI and tech transformation, expanding into new geographies across Europe organically and through pan-European M&A and team lift-outs from leading competitors, as well as continuing to strengthen WTS’ highly attractive employer brand, including the opportunity to join a true equity partnership.
