Restricted Share Unit financial
"373.7073 restricted share units on Ordinary Shares"
A restricted share unit (RSU) is a promise by a company to give an employee a set number of company shares at a future date, typically after meeting time or performance conditions. For investors, RSUs matter because when they convert into actual shares they increase the number of shares outstanding (like unlocking more tickets in a game), which can dilute existing holders, and they align employee incentives with company performance, influencing behavior and long-term value.
Non-Qualified Deferred Savings Plan financial
"acquired pursuant to the Willis Towers Watson Non-Qualified Deferred Savings Plan for U.S. Employees"
matching contribution financial
"the Company's matching contribution on the participant's deferral election credited to the participant's account"
An employer’s matching contribution is when a company adds money to an employee’s retirement or savings account based on the employee’s own contributions, like a store offering to top up a customer’s purchase to reach a discount threshold. It matters to investors because matching increases a firm’s compensation costs and can improve staff retention and morale, which affect productivity, cash flow and long-term liabilities that influence a company’s financial outlook.
