Dear                             ,

 

Today Aon announced an important step in the evolution of our firm and I would like to explain how this move will help Aon better serve our clients.

 

As you may have read in our press release, Aon announced that we are moving our corporate headquarters from Chicago to London and Aon’s incorporation from Delaware to the England.

 

Most importantly, the move will not change the way I or our team serve you as a client. A small number of senior executives, none from Aon Benfield, are relocating to London. Aon will continue to operate as a global firm that serves clients wherever they are. This move will provide us with the financial flexibility to reinvest in and strengthen our client service capabilities. At Aon, we understand that we only succeed when our clients succeed and we believe this move will enhance our ability to realize that goal.

 

Chicago will continue as our headquarters for the Americas and we will maintain a strong professional and philanthropic presence in the city, where we have recently signed a letter of intent for a new 15-year lease at the Aon Center.

 

We are excited about the next steps in the Aon journey and we remain committed to building upon and strengthening our strategic relationship.

 

Thank you for your support and please feel free to call us directly should you wish to discuss.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Greg Case
