KPMG UK has created 56 new partners in its annual promotions round, but none of them are joining the firm’s equity ranks.

The Big Four accountancy firm introduced a salaried, non-equity partner rung in 2021. The rank means that staff get the coveted partner title, but only a small proportion of their pay is based on the firm’s profits.
