In the company’s announcement, chief executive Carl Hess commented: “The fourth quarter was a solid finish to a strong year for WTW. For the fourth quarter, revenue and operating margins increased over prior year. In addition, for the full year, we delivered results that were in line with our expectations, including healthy organic revenue growth and adjusted operating margin expansion.
“These reflected the benefits of our hiring efforts, investments in technology, initiatives to simplify our company, and the successful execution of our transformation efforts. In a complex operating environment, our focus, agility, and resilience allowed us to deliver on our commitments, including a substantial return of capital to our shareholders.”
The CEO added that WTW enters the new year with momentum and remains focussed on executing on its ‘Grow, Simplify, and Transform’ strategic priorities.
