    • WTW's Corporate Risk and Broking (CRB) segment experienced double-digit growth across almost all global lines of business in Q3 2023, driven by strong new business and high client retention rates.
    • WTW has generated adjusted operating margin expansion of 70 basis points year-to-date and expects continued margin expansion for the full year, indicating effective cost management and operational efficiency.
    • WTW is well-positioned to handle macroeconomic uncertainty and has a track record of growing revenue even during recessions, suggesting resilience and stability in their business model.
    • Pension income headwinds are expected to persist into 2024 due to rising interest rates and declining capital market returns.
    • The transformation program is causing increased cash spend, with an expected incremental increase of approximately $150 million for the full year, which may impact cash flows.
    • Potential re-entry into the reinsurance business may require significant investment and may not contribute to financial results in the near term.
