Debt can assist Willis Towers until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Willis Towers' shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Willis Towers Watson sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Willis to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Willis Towers' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
