Marsh Colleagues Honored with Power Broker® Awards

Risk & Insurance magazine named 34 Marsh colleagues as 2018 Power Broker® winners and finalists in its annual award program recognizing the most effective and influential commercial insurance brokers.

“Deep industry knowledge, creativity, and expertise are among Marsh's greatest assets and play a key role in our ability to deliver differentiated value to our clients. Please join me in congratulating these deserving colleagues who embody our strategic client vision,” said Martin South, President, US and Canada Division.   

Representing 18 industries, 29 Marsh professionals were recognized as 2018 Power Broker winners and five Marsh colleagues were named finalists.
 
The Power Broker designation is based on nominations provided by brokers and risk managers, and is judged based on the quality of the application and on references by risk managers in each industry sector. Hundreds of risk managers and risk executives are interviewed in the process of identifying and soliciting, evaluating, and judging the nominees. Brokers are judged primarily on their creativity in solving risk-related problems during the previous year, their demonstrated industry knowledge, and their high level of client service.
