Willis also noted that it had “established a presence in Argentina in 1999 through a joint venture with Herzfeld & Levy, a leading national insurance broker, to become Herzfeld Willis, and also set up a reinsurance brokerage, Willis S.A, with two private investors. In September 2009, Willis acquired 100 percent of the share capital of Herzfeld Willis and Willis S.A to form Willis Argentina S.A.”
