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.

A protective put caps your downside on the WTW position at a chosen floor; a zero-cost collar pays for that floor by capping the upside. This calculator prices both structures off the current WTW option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.
Example: a 5,000-share WTW position at $327.9 is worth $1,639,500. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $32,790 to $65,580) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off WTW's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.
