Marsh’s predecessor companies were established in Singapore in 1972. The growth and history of the company are linked to the rapid economic development of Singapore.

In the 1970’s, Marsh was among the first to introduce professional broking services to Singapore and the first to act for multinational companies with interests here. The value of these services was quickly recognised by large national companies doing business not only in Singapore, but also throughout the Asian region.

During the 1980’s, Marsh pioneered innovative insurance solutions for many large infrastructure projects, including the world class mass transit system.

1997 saw the consolidation of Marsh & McLennan and Johnson & Higgins into J&H Marsh & McLennan. This was followed by the integration of the Sedgwick Group at the end of 1998 into the new Marsh Singapore. The respected traditions of Johnson & Higgins, Sedgwick and Marsh & McLennan were well known in the Asia-Pacific region. As a result of the merging of these global risk advisers and insurance brokers, clients around the world can now benefit from the firm’s expanded capabilities, resources and geographic reach as well as the expertise of professionals in specialist practices designed to handle clients’ individual risk management needs.
