The 2016 merger of Willis Group and Towers Watson joined insurance broking with human-capital and actuarial consulting, and a later attempt to merge with Aon was abandoned under antitrust objection in 2021. Broking places commercial risk for fees; the consulting half advises on pensions, benefits design, and insurance-company actuarial work. Health and benefits consulting has grown with employer medical cost pressure. The company is incorporated in Ireland after the merger. Headquarters are in London.

If a meaningful share of your net worth sits in WTW, concentration risk is the question. This calculator quantifies drawdown impact at 30 / 50 / 70%, and the trade-off between selling down (tax cost now) versus hedging (option premium drag), auto-filled with WTW's option-implied volatility.

Example: 5,000 WTW shares at $327.9 is a $1,639,500 position. A 30% drawdown costs $491,850; a 50% drawdown costs $819,750; a 70% drawdown costs $1,147,650. The calculator quantifies the trade-off between selling down (immediate capital-gains tax) and hedging (option premium drag) using WTW's option-implied volatility and your cost basis.
