Ep 112 Alastair Swift WTW: We can grow exponentially in Specialty

Tuesday Feb 22, 2022

Today’s guest is a broking veteran known across the London Market and beyond.

Alastair Swift is Head of Corporate Risk and Broking for Global Lines of Business at WTW as well as CEO of Willis Limited.

Recently new WTW CEO Carl Hess has spoken about his desire for the group to get some of its swagger back and I think this interview could mark the beginning of that process for the firm.

Following the damaging twists and turns of the Aon merger saga of the past two years and the eventual sale of Willis Re to Gallagher, it was refreshing to hear someone senior at the newly rebranded WTW come out fighting and start focusing on the future at the global broker and advisor.

Alastair didn’t duck any of my questions, in fact quite the opposite.
