Good morning. Aon, the $80 billion global professional services firm and insurance broker, is accelerating its growth strategy and redefining its role in the industry. At the center is a focus on technology-enabled, client-centric solutions, according to CFO Edmund Reese.
For the first time in two decades, Aon hosted an investor day on Monday. “We have something unique and differentiated, and in fact, it is very important for the insurance industry—risk capital management and human capital solutions,” Reese told me. “We think that’s what more senior executive clients are looking for.”
Aon CEO Greg Case, Reese and Aon’s executive committee have been spearheading a three-year, client-centric “3×3 Plan,” supported by the company’s $1 billion investment in talent and technology, to be completed by 2026. Over the past 10 years, Aon has outpaced the S&P 500, returning about 15% annually, Reese said.
