Charlie [for Mike Zaremski]'s questions to WILLIS TOWERS WATSON (WTW) leadership • Q3 2024
Question
Asked about the competitive environment in the London market and its potential impact on the CRB business. Also inquired about the accounting for the TRANZACT business and whether its results would be included in the fourth quarter.
Answer
Carl Hess described the global insurance market as stabilizing and softening, but emphasized that WTW's growth is driven by its specialization strategy, not rate trends. Andrew Krasner confirmed that TRANZACT's results are expected to be included for essentially the full year 2024, so the sale won't impact the annual guidance. Its removal will be accretive to growth and margins going forward.
