According to court documents, it appears that Aon, its acquisition target Willis Towers Watson (WTW) and the US Department of Justice (US DoJ) are hoping to reach a settlement quickly on counts related to three of the market segments where the mega-merger was deemed potentially anti-competitive.
It’s news that could signal a chance of settling some of the counts prior to the trial beginning, which would be hoped to make the courts process a bit faster for the merger parties.
