Marsh, the world's leading insurance broker and risk advisor, will hold a one-hour Webcast on multinational insurance program structure and portfolio diversification on Wednesday, May 27 at 11 a.m. EDT.

"Amid growing concerns about insurer consistency and performance, businesses with global operations and exposures are reviewing their multinational insurance program structures and program placements with a greater focus on diversifying their insurance portfolios," said H.B. Whitmore, a managing director of Marsh and leader of the firm's Multinational Practice. "At the same time, the increased emphasis on insurance regulatory and tax issues underscores the need for companies to make sure their insurers are equipped to comply with regulations in all areas where they do business."

Marsh's Webcast, "Multinational Insurance Programs – the Optimization Imperative," features a panel of experts from the firm's Multinational Practice and Bowring Marsh, the international specialist placement broker, who will discuss global insurance programs, tax and regulatory concerns, and risk management and transfer issues around the world.

The Webcast and its replay are free of charge.
