The company is the largest insurance broker in the world and also owns Mercer, Oliver Wyman, and the reinsurance broker Guy Carpenter, so about a third of revenue comes from consulting rather than broking. Brokers are paid to place risk without carrying it, which produces stable fee income across underwriting cycles. Consulting on retirement, health benefits, and strategy is sold to the same corporate buyers. Scale matters in reinsurance placement because it concentrates market information. Headquarters are in New York.

A protective put caps your downside on the MRSH position at a chosen floor; a zero-cost collar pays for that floor by capping the upside. This calculator prices both structures off the current MRSH option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.
Example: a 5,000-share MRSH position at $186.37 is worth $931,850. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $18,637 to $37,274) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off MRSH's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.
