Economic downturn

As the global economy continues to falter, many organisations face financial challenges the likes of which they have not seen in decades. Corporate bankruptcies have risen 50 percent since 2007 and even companies that are not insolvent are restructuring by cutting costs, laying off workers, closing plants, and delaying capital investments.

Marsh provides a wide range of services to help clients more effectively identify risks, mitigate exposures, and manage their businesses in this challenging economic period. We are able to marshal a breadth and depth of expertise to help organisations manage several of the challenges associated with the economic downturn, from managing layoffs and corporate restructurings to mitigating the risks associated with acquiring troubled assets to managing environmental risks with bankruptcy.

In addition, Marsh has a growing library of Webcasts and white papers to assist organisations in understanding how innovative risk management can be used to meet the challenges of the economic downturn.
