the impact of geopolitical or macroeconomic conditions on us, our clients and the countries and industries in which we operate, including from conflicts such as the war in Ukraine, slower GDP growth or recession, capital markets volatility, instability in the banking sector and inflation;
the increasing prevalence of ransomware, supply chain and other forms of cyber attacks, and their potential to disrupt our operations, or the operations of our third party vendors, and result in the disclosure of confidential client or company information;
the impact from lawsuits or investigations arising from errors and omissions, breaches of fiduciary duty or other claims against us in our capacity as a broker or investment advisor, including claims related to our investment business’ ability to execute timely trades;
the financial and operational impact of complying with laws and regulations, including domestic and international sanctions regimes, anti-corruption laws such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, U.K. Anti Bribery Act and cybersecurity and data privacy regulations;
our ability to attract, retain and develop industry leading talent;
our ability to compete effectively and adapt to competitive pressures in each of our businesses, including from disintermediation as well as technological change, digital disruption and other types of innovation;

the impact of changes in tax laws, guidance and interpretations, such as the implementation of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development international tax framework, or disagreements with tax authorities; and
the regulatory, contractual and reputational risks that arise based on insurance placement activities and insurer revenue streams.
The factors identified above are not exhaustive.

MARSH & McLENNAN COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.     Nature of Operations
Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company"), a global professional services firm, is organized based on the different services that it offers. Under this structure, the Company’s two business segments are Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting.
The Risk and Insurance Services segment ("RIS") includes risk management activities (risk advice, risk transfer, and risk control and mitigation solutions) as well as insurance and reinsurance broking and services for businesses, public entities, insurance companies, associations, professional services organizations, and private clients. The Company conducts business in this segment through Marsh and Guy Carpenter. Marsh provides data-driven risk advisory services and insurance solutions to commercial and consumer clients. Guy Carpenter develops advanced risk, reinsurance and capital strategies that help clients grow profitably and identify and capitalize on emerging opportunities.
The Consulting segment includes health, wealth and career solutions and products, and specialized management, strategic, economic and brand consulting services. The Company conducts business in this segment through Mercer and Oliver Wyman Group. Mercer delivers advice and technology-driven solutions that help organizations redefine the future of work, shape retirement and investment outcomes, and advance health and well-being for a changing workforce. Oliver Wyman Group serves as critical strategic, economic and brand advisor to private sector and governmental clients.
2.     Principles of Consolidation and Other Matters
The Company prepared the consolidated financial statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. For interim filings, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S.) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the information and disclosures presented are adequate to make such information and disclosures not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the "2022 Form 10-K").
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all wholly-owned and majority owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The financial information contained herein reflects all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Estimates: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, judgments and methodologies. The estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable.
Such matters include:
estimates of revenue;
impairment assessments and charges;
recoverability of long-lived assets;
liabilities for errors and omissions;
deferred tax assets, uncertain tax positions and income tax expense;
share-based and incentive compensation expense;
the allowance for current expected credit losses on receivables;
10


useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, and depreciation and amortization; and
fair value estimates of contingent consideration receivable or payable related to acquisitions or dispositions.
The Company believes these estimates are reasonable based on information currently available at the time they are made. The Company also considered the potential impact of macroeconomic factors including inflation, volatility in interest rates, and the war in Ukraine to its customer base in various industries and geographies. Insurance exposures subject to variable factors are subject to mid-term and end-of-term adjustments, as well as policy audits, which may reduce premiums and corresponding commissions. Estimates were updated based on internal and industry specific economic data. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of certificates of deposit and time deposits, with original maturities of three months or less, and money market funds. The estimated fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents approximates their carrying value. The Company is required to maintain operating funds primarily related to regulatory requirements outside of the U.S. or as collateral under captive insurance arrangements. At June 30, 2023, the Company maintained $464 million compared to $348 million at December 31, 2022 related to these regulatory requirements.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Accounts Receivable
The Company’s policy for providing an allowance for credit losses on its accounts receivable is based on a combination of factors, including historical write-offs, aging of balances, and other qualitative and quantitative analyses. The charge related to expected credit losses was not material to the consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Investments
The caption "Investment income" in the consolidated statements of income comprises realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments recognized in earnings. It includes, when applicable, other than temporary declines in the value of securities, mark-to-market increases or decreases in equity investments with readily determinable fair values and equity method gains or losses on the Company's investments in private equity funds.
The Company holds investments in certain private equity funds. Investments in private equity funds are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting using a consistently applied three-month lag period adjusted for any known significant changes from the lag period to the reporting date of the Company. The underlying private equity funds follow investment company accounting, where investments within the fund are carried at fair value. Investment gains or losses for its proportionate share of the change in fair value of the funds are recorded in earnings. Investments accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company recorded net investment income of $3 million and $5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to net investment income of $2 million and $28 million, respectively, for the corresponding periods in the prior year.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 24.4%, compared with 25.5% for the corresponding quarter of 2022. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was 24.6% for both periods.
The tax rate in each period reflects the impact of discrete tax items such as excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation, enacted tax legislation, changes in uncertain tax positions, deferred tax adjustments, nontaxable adjustments related to contingent consideration for acquisitions, and valuation allowances for certain tax credits and, or losses. The tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 reflects the previously enacted change in the United Kingdom (U.K.) corporate income tax rate from 19% to 25%, effective April 1, 2023. The blended U.K. statutory tax rate for 2023 is 23.5%.
The excess tax benefit related to share-based payments is the most significant discrete item in both periods, reducing the effective tax rate by 1.2% and 0.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and by 1.3% for the six months periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
11


The Company's tax rate reflects its income, statutory tax rates, and tax planning in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant judgment is required in determining the annual effective tax rate and in evaluating uncertain tax positions.
Losses in one jurisdiction, generally, cannot offset earnings in another, and within certain jurisdictions profits and losses may not offset between entities. Consequently, losses in certain jurisdictions may require valuation allowances affecting the effective tax rate, depending on estimates of the realizability of associated deferred tax assets. The tax rate is also sensitive to changes in unrecognized tax benefits, including the impact of settled tax audits and expired statutes of limitations.
The Company reports a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns. The Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits were $107 million at June 30, 2023, and $97 million at December 31, 2022. It is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease up to approximately $52 million within the next twelve months due to settlement of audits and expirations of statutes of limitations.
Changes in tax laws, rulings, policies, or related legal and regulatory interpretations occur frequently and may have significant favorable or adverse impacts on our effective tax rate. In July 2023, the U.K. enacted legislation to implement the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's ("OECD") framework, effective from January 1, 2024. This minimum tax will be treated as a period cost in future years and will not impact operating results for 2023. The Company is continuing to monitor legislative developments, especially in the European Union (E.U.) countries, and is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of the U.K. and other legislation on its results of future operations. On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("IRA") was enacted into law. The Company evaluated the provisions of the new legislation, the most significant of which are the corporate alternative minimum tax and the share repurchase tax. The IRA was effective as of January 1, 2023 and does not have a significant impact on the Company's financial results of operations for the current year.
Restructuring Costs
Charges associated with restructuring activities are recognized in accordance with applicable accounting guidance which includes accounting for disposal or exit activities, guidance related to impairment of Right-of-use ("ROU") assets related to real estate leases, as well as other costs resulting from accelerated depreciation or amortization of leasehold improvements and other property and equipment.
Severance and related costs are recognized based on amounts due under established severance plans or estimates of one-time benefits that will be provided. Typically, severance benefits are recognized when the impacted colleagues are notified of their expected termination and such termination is expected to occur within the legally required notification period. These costs are included in compensation and benefits in the consolidated statements of income.
Costs for real estate consolidation are recognized based on the type of cost, and the expected future use of the facility. For locations where the Company does not expect to sub-lease the property, the amortization of any ROU asset is accelerated from the decision date to the cease use date. For locations where the Company expects to sub-lease the properties subsequent to its vacating the property, the ROU asset is reviewed for potential impairment at the earlier of the cease use date or the date a sub-lease is signed. To determine the amount of impairment, the fair value of the ROU asset is determined based on the present value of the estimated net cash flows related to the property. Contractual costs outside of the ROU asset are recognized based on the net present value of expected future cash outflows for which the Company will not receive any benefit. Such amounts are reliant on estimates of future sub-lease income to be received and future contractual costs to be incurred. These costs are included in other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income.
Other costs related to restructuring, such as moving, legal or consulting costs are recognized as incurred. These costs are included in other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income.
Foreign Currency
The financial statements of our international subsidiaries are translated from functional currency to U.S. dollars using month-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, and average monthly exchange rates during the period for revenues and expenses. Translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") within the consolidated statements of equity. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses resulting from the conversion of the transaction currency to functional currency are included in operating income in the consolidated statements of income.

3.     Revenue
The core principle of the revenue recognition guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
To achieve this principle, the entity applies the following steps: identify the contract(s) with the customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract(s), determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In accordance with the accounting guidance, a performance obligation is satisfied either at a "point in time" or "over time", depending on the nature of the product or service provided, and the specific terms of the contract with customers.
Other revenue included in the consolidated statements of income that is not from contracts with customers is less than 2% of total revenue and is not presented as a separate line item.
The Company's revenue policies are provided in more detail in Note 2, Revenue, in the Form 2022 10-K.

The following table provides contract assets and contract liabilities information from contracts with customers:
(In millions)June 30, 2023December 31, 2022
Contract assets$378 $335 
Contract liabilities$906 $837 
The Company records accounts receivable when the right to consideration is unconditional, subject only to the passage of time. Contract assets primarily relate to quota share reinsurance brokerage and contingent insurer revenue. The Company does not have the right to bill and collect revenue for quota share brokerage until the underlying policies written by the ceding insurer attach to the treaty. Estimated revenue related to the achievement of volume or loss ratio metrics cannot be billed or collected until all related policy placements are completed and the contingency is resolved.
Contract assets are included in other current assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities primarily relate to the advance consideration received from customers. Contract liabilities are included in current liabilities in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each of those periods was $218 million and $511 million, respectively, compared to revenue recognized of $174 million and $454 million, respectively, for the corresponding periods in the prior year.
The amount of revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods, mainly due to variable consideration from contracts with insurers, quota share business and consulting contracts previously considered constrained was $27 million and $44 million, respectively, and $37 million and $61 million, respectively, for the corresponding periods in the prior year.
The Company applies the practical expedient and does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (1) contracts with original contract terms of one year or less and (2) contracts where the Company has the right to invoice for services performed. The revenue expected to be recognized in future periods during the non-cancellable term of existing contracts greater than one year that is related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied at the end of the reporting period is approximately $240 million, primarily related to Mercer. The Company expects revenue in 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2027 and beyond of $92 million, $67 million, $43 million, $24 million and $14 million, respectively, related to these performance obligations.
4.     Fiduciary Assets and Liabilities
The Company, in its capacity as an insurance broker or agent, generally collects premiums from insureds and after deducting its commissions, remits the premiums to the respective insurance underwriters. The Company also collects claims or refunds from underwriters on behalf of insureds. Unremitted insurance premiums and claims proceeds are held by the Company in a fiduciary capacity. The Company's fiduciary assets primarily include bank or short-term time deposits and liquid money market funds, classified as cash and cash equivalents. Since fiduciary assets are not available for corporate use, they are shown separately in the consolidated balance sheets as cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity, with a corresponding amount in current liabilities.
Risk and Insurance Services revenue includes interest on fiduciary funds of $108 million and $199 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $13 million and $17 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
Net uncollected premiums and claims and the related payables were $16.7 billion at June 30, 2023, and $13.0 billion at December 31, 2022. The Company is not a principal to the contracts under which the right to receive premiums or the right to receive reimbursement of insured losses arises. Accordingly, net uncollected premiums and claims and the related payables are not assets and liabilities of the Company and are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
In certain instances, the Company advances premiums, refunds or claims to insurance underwriters or insureds prior to collection. These advances are made from corporate funds and are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as receivables.
The Company, through its Mercer subsidiary, manages assets in trusts or funds for which Mercer’s management or trustee fee is not considered a variable interest, since the fees are commensurate with the level of effort
14


required to provide those services. Mercer is not the primary beneficiary of these trusts or funds. Mercer’s maximum exposure to loss of its interests is, therefore, limited to collection of its fees.
Reclassification of Fiduciary Assets and Liabilities
In the second quarter of 2023, the Company changed the presentation of fiduciary assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity was reclassified from an offset to fiduciary liabilities to current assets, with the corresponding fiduciary liabilities reclassified to current liabilities. The reclassification had no impact on the Company’s total equity at December 31, 2022. The presentation in the December 31, 2022 consolidated balance sheet was conformed to the current presentation as follows:
(In millions)As ReportedAs Reclassified
Total current assets$8,299 $18,959 
Total assets$33,454 $44,114 
Total current liabilities$7,172 $17,832 
As a result of reclassifying cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity, total RIS assets and total Consulting assets at December 31, 2022 increased to $33,022 million and $10,446 million, respectively.
5.    Per Share Data

8.     Acquisitions and Dispositions
The Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations. Net assets and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements commencing at the respective purchase closing dates. In connection with acquisitions, the Company records the estimated values of the net tangible assets and the identifiable intangible assets purchased, which typically consist of customer relationships, developed technology, trademarks and non-compete agreements. The valuation of purchased intangible assets involves significant estimates and assumptions. The Company estimates the fair value of purchased intangible assets, primarily using the income approach, by determining the present value of future cash flows over the remaining economic life of the respective assets. The significant estimates and assumptions used in this approach include the determination of the discount rate, economic life, future revenue growth rates, expected account attrition rates and earnings margins. Refinement and completion of final valuation of net assets acquired could affect the carrying value of tangible assets, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets.
The Risk and Insurance Services segment completed three acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2023:
May – Marsh acquired Austral Insurance Brokers Pty Ltd, an Australia-based insurance broker that provides risk advice services and business insurance solutions in the labor hire, mining services, transport, manufacturing, agribusiness, retail and professional services sectors.
June – Guy Carpenter acquired Re Solutions, an Israel-based reinsurance broker with actuarial and analytics capabilities and solutions, including an extensive facultative reinsurance offering, and Marsh & McLennan Agency ("MMA") acquired SOLV Risk Solutions, LLC, a Texas-based risk management advisory services firm.
The Consulting segment completed three acquisitions for the six months ended June 30, 2023:
March – Mercer acquired Leapgen LLC, a Minnesota-based human resources consulting technology advisory firm focused on digital strategy and transformation, workforce solutions, and improving employee experience.
April – Mercer acquired Westpac Banking Corporation’s ("Westpac") financial advisory business, Advance Asset Management, and completed the transfer from Westpac of BT Financial Group's personal and corporate pension funds to the Mercer Super Trust managed by Mercer Australia (referred to collectively, as the "Westpac Transaction"). Oliver Wyman Group acquired the business of Gorman Actuarial, Inc., a U.S.-based life and health actuarial consultant business.
Total purchase consideration for acquisitions made during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $340 million, which consisted of cash paid of $332 million and deferred purchase and estimated contingent consideration of $8 million. Contingent consideration arrangements are generally based on earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") or revenue targets over a period of 2 to 4 years. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company also paid $51 million of deferred purchase consideration and $175 million of contingent consideration related to acquisitions made in prior years. Estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to adjustment until purchase accounting is finalized.
The following table presents the preliminary allocation of purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in 2023, based on the estimated fair values for the acquisitions as of their respective acquisition dates. Amounts in the table primarily reflect the impact of the Westpac Transaction.

The purchase price allocation for assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based on estimates that are preliminary in nature and subject to adjustments, which could be material. Any necessary adjustments must be finalized during the measurement period, which for a particular asset, liability, or non-controlling interest ends once the acquirer determines that either (1) the necessary information has been obtained or (2) the information is not available. However, the measurement period for all items is limited to one year from the acquisition date.
Items subject to change include:
amounts of intangible assets, fixed assets, capitalized software assets and right-of-use assets, subject to finalization of valuation efforts;
amounts for contingencies, pending the finalization of the Company’s assessment of the portfolio of contingencies;
amounts for deferred tax assets and liabilities, pending the finalization of valuations of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and associated goodwill discussed below; and
amounts for income tax assets, receivables and liabilities, pending the filing of the acquired companies' pre-acquisition income tax returns and receipt of information from taxing authorities which may change certain estimates and assumptions used.
The estimation of fair value requires numerous judgments, assumptions and estimates about future events and uncertainties, which could materially impact these values, and the related amortization, where applicable, in the Company’s results of operations.

The consolidated statements of income include the results of operations of acquired companies since their respective acquisition dates. The consolidated statements of income for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, include revenue of approximately $41 million and operating income of $9 million for acquisitions made in 2023. The consolidated statements of income for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 include revenue of approximately $6 million and operating loss of $1 million for acquisitions made in 2022.
In relation to the Westpac Transaction, the Company incurred approximately $10 million and $27 million of integration expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, primarily for technology,
20


consulting, legal and people related costs. These costs are included in other operating expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of income.
Dispositions
In January 2023, the Company entered into an agreement for the sale of an individual financial advisory business in Canada which was completed in May 2023. As a result, the Company recorded a loss of $17 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily related to the write-down of the customer relationship intangible assets. The loss is included in revenue in the consolidated statements of income.
In connection with the disposition of the Mercer U.S. affinity business in 2022, the Company transferred to the buyer an additional $20 million of cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity in the first quarter of 2023.

Total purchase consideration for acquisitions made for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $158 million, which consisted of cash paid of $147 million and deferred purchase and estimated contingent consideration of $11 million. Contingent consideration arrangements are based primarily on EBITDA or revenue targets over a period of two to four years. For the first six months of 2022, the Company also paid $76 million of deferred purchase consideration and $34 million of contingent consideration related to acquisitions made in prior years. Estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to adjustment when purchase accounting is finalized.
Prior year dispositions
In April 2022, Mercer sold its U.S. affinity business that provided insurance marketing, brokerage and administration to association and affinity groups for cash proceeds of approximately $140 million and recorded a gain of $112 million which is included in revenue in the consolidated statements of income.
In addition, during the first six months of 2022, the Company made certain other dispositions, the most significant of which was Mercer's sale of its retirement plan administration and call center operations in Brazil for cash proceeds of approximately $3 million.
Deconsolidation of Russia
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company concluded that it did not meet the accounting criteria for control over its wholly-owned Russian subsidiaries due to the evolving trade and economic sanctions against Russia and the related Russian counter sanctions. These sanctions included restrictions on payments to and from Russian companies and reduced currency access through official exchange markets that have significantly impacted the Company's ability to effectively manage and operate its Russian businesses.
As a result, the Company deconsolidated its Russian businesses effective as of the end of the first quarter of 2022, and recorded a loss of $39 million included in revenue in the consolidated statements of income. The loss consisted of the reclassification of cumulative translation losses from AOCI and a charge for the write-off of the Russian businesses' net assets.
In June 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to exit its businesses in Russia and transfer ownership to local management pending regulatory approvals.
Purchase of remaining non-controlling interest
In the second quarter of 2023, the Company purchased the remaining interest in a subsidiary for $139 million.

The Company is required to assess goodwill and any indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. The Company performs the annual impairment assessment for each of its reporting units during the third quarter of each year. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, a company can assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test. Alternatively, the Company may elect to proceed directly to the quantitative goodwill impairment test. In the third quarter of 2022, the Company completed a qualitative impairment assessment and concluded that goodwill was not impaired. As part of its assessment, the Company considered numerous factors, including:
that the fair value of each reporting unit exceeds its carrying value by a substantial margin based on its most recent quantitative assessment in 2019;
whether significant acquisitions or dispositions occurred which might alter the fair value of its reporting units;
macroeconomic conditions and their potential impact on reporting unit fair values;
actual performance compared with budget and prior projections used in its estimation of reporting unit fair values;
industry and market conditions; and
the year-over-year change in the Company’s share price.
Other intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life are amortized over their estimated lives and assessed for impairment upon the occurrence of certain triggering events in accordance with applicable accounting literature. Based on its assessment, the Company concluded that other intangible assets were not impaired. The Company had no indefinite lived intangible assets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

Balance at June 30,
$16,621 $15,963 
(a) Primarily reflects the impact of foreign exchange.
The goodwill arising from acquisitions in 2023 and 2022 consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and the acquired entities and the trained and assembled workforce acquired.
The goodwill acquired in 2023 included approximately $2.6 million and $11.3 million in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments, respectively, which is deductible for tax purposes.
Goodwill allocable to the Company’s reportable segments at June 30, 2023, is $12.6 billion for Risk and Insurance Services and $4.0 billion for Consulting.
The gross cost and accumulated amortization of other identified intangible assets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

10.     Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company has categorized its assets and liabilities that are valued at fair value on a recurring basis into a three-level fair value hierarchy as defined by the FASB. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy, for disclosure purposes, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on the inputs in the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1.Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market (examples include active exchange-traded equity securities and exchange-traded money market mutual funds).
Assets and liabilities measured using Level 1 inputs include exchange-traded equity securities, exchange-traded mutual funds and money market funds.
Level 2.Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:
a)quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
b)quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets (examples include corporate and municipal bonds, which trade infrequently);
c)pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (examples include most over-the-counter derivatives, including interest rate and currency swaps); and
d)pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means for substantially the full asset or liability (for example, certain mortgage loans).
Assets and liabilities using Level 2 inputs are related to an equity security.
Level 3.Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices, or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Assets and liabilities measured using Level 3 inputs relate to assets and liabilities for contingent purchase consideration.


24


Valuation Techniques
Equity Securities, Money Market Funds and Mutual Funds – Level 1
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the sale price on their principal exchange or, for certain markets, official closing bid price. Money market funds are valued at a readily determinable price.
Contingent Purchase Consideration Assets and Liabilities – Level 3
Purchase consideration for some acquisitions and dispositions made by the Company include contingent consideration arrangements. Contingent consideration arrangements are based primarily on EBITDA or revenue targets over a period of two to four years. The fair value of the contingent purchase consideration asset and liability is estimated as the present value of future cash flows to be paid, based on projections of revenue and earnings and related targets of the acquired and disposed entities.
The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

The Level 3 assets in the table reflect contingent purchase consideration from the sale of businesses. The change in the contingent purchase consideration assets from December 31, 2022 is driven primarily by cash receipts of approximately $3 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no assets or liabilities that were transferred between levels.

Long-Term Investments
The Company holds investments in public and private companies as well as certain private equity investments that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The carrying value of these investments was $249 million and $215 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Investments in Public and Private Companies
The Company has investments in private insurance and consulting companies with a carrying value of $59 million and $56 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These investments are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, the results of which are included in revenue in the consolidated statements of income and the carrying value of which is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company records its share of income or loss on its equity method investments, some of which are on a one quarter lag basis.
Private Equity Investments
The Company's investments in private equity funds were $190 million and $159 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The carrying values of these private equity investments approximate fair value. The underlying private equity funds follow investment company accounting, where investments within the fund are carried at fair value. The Company records in earnings its proportionate share of the change in fair value of the funds on the investment income line in the consolidated statements of income. These investments are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company recorded net investment income from these investments of $3 million and $6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and net investment gains of $2 million and $19 million, respectively, from these investments for the corresponding periods in 2022.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company has commitments of potential future investments of approximately $132 million in private equity funds that invest primarily in financial services companies.
Other Investments
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held equity investments with readily determinable market values of $16 million and $17 million, respectively. The Company recorded mark-to-market investment losses on these investments of $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. During the first six months of 2022, the Company recorded mark-to-market investment gains of $9 million relating to its investment in Alexander Forbes, which was sold later in 2022.
The Company also held investments without readily determinable market values of $34 million and $42 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

11.    Derivatives
Net Investment Hedge
The Company has investments in various subsidiaries with Euro functional currencies. As a result, the Company is exposed to the risk of fluctuations between the Euro and U.S. dollar exchange rates. The Company designated its €1.1 billion senior note debt instruments ("Euro notes") as a net investment hedge (the "hedge") of its Euro denominated subsidiaries. The hedge effectiveness is re-assessed each quarter to confirm that the designated equity balance at the beginning of each period continues to equal or exceed 80% of the outstanding balance of the Euro debt instrument and that all the critical terms of the hedging instrument and the hedged net investment continue to match. If the hedge is highly effective, the change in the debt balance related to foreign exchange fluctuations is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets.
The U.S. dollar value of the Euro notes increased by $33 million through June 30, 2023, related to the change in foreign exchange rates. The Company concluded that the hedge was highly effective and recorded an increase to accumulated other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
12.    Leases
The Company leases office facilities under non-cancelable operating leases with terms generally ranging between 10 and 25 years. The Company utilizes these leased office facilities for use by its employees in countries in which the Company conducts its business. The Company’s leases have no restrictions on the payment of dividends, the acquisition of debt or additional lease obligations, or entering into additional lease obligations. The leases also do not contain significant purchase options.
Operating leases are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as ROU assets and operating lease liabilities based on the present value of the remaining future minimum payments over the lease term at commencement date of the lease.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company determined that $5 million and $13 million of its ROU assets, respectively, were impaired and recorded a charge to the consolidated statements of income with an offsetting reduction to ROU assets.

13.    Retirement Benefits
The Company maintains qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans for its U.S. and non-U.S. eligible employees. The Company’s policy for funding its tax-qualified defined benefit retirement plans is to contribute amounts at least sufficient to meet the funding requirements set forth by U.S. law and the laws of the non-U.S. jurisdictions in which the Company offers defined benefit plans.
The weighted average actuarial assumptions utilized to calculate the net periodic benefit costs for the U.S. and significant non-U.S. defined benefit plans are as follows:

Weighted average assumptions:
Expected return on plan assets5.31 %4.56 %
Discount rate5.16 %2.28 %
Rate of compensation increase3.16 %2.16 %
The target asset allocation for the U.S. plans is 50% equities and equity alternatives and 50% fixed income. At June 30, 2023, the actual allocation for the U.S. plans was 50% equities and equity alternatives and 50% fixed income. The target allocation for the U.K. plans at June 30, 2023 is 14% equities and equity alternatives and 86% fixed income. At June 30, 2023, the actual allocation for the U.K. plans was 13% equities and equity alternatives and 87% fixed income. The Company's U.K. plans comprised approximately 79% of non-U.S. plan assets at December 31, 2022. The assets of the Company's defined benefit plans are diversified and are managed in accordance with applicable laws and with the goal of maximizing the plans' real return within acceptable risk parameters. The Company generally uses threshold-based portfolio re-balancing to ensure the actual portfolio remains consistent with target asset allocation ranges.
The net benefit cost or credit of the Company's defined benefit plans is measured on an actuarial basis using various methods and assumptions. The components of the net benefit credit for defined benefit plans are as follows:

The senior notes in the table are registered by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are not guaranteed.
The Company has a short-term commercial paper financing program of $2.8 billion. The program was increased from $2.0 billion in October 2022. The Company had $308 million of commercial paper outstanding at June 30, 2023, at an average effective interest rate of 5.33%.
Credit Facilities
The Company has a multi-currency unsecured $2.8 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") entered into on April 1, 2021. The interest rate on the Credit Facility was initially based on LIBOR plus a fixed margin which varied with the Company's credit rating. In the second quarter of 2023, the Credit Facility was amended so that borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal, at the borrower's option, either at (a) SOFR benchmark rate for U.S. dollar borrowings, or (b) a currency specific benchmark rate, plus an applicable margin which varies with the Company's credit ratings. The Credit Facility expires in April 2026 and requires the Company to maintain certain coverage and leverage ratios which are tested quarterly.
31


The Credit Facility includes provisions for determining a benchmark replacement rate in the event existing benchmark rates are no longer available or in certain other circumstances in which an alternative rate may be required. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no borrowings under this facility.
In connection with the Credit Facility, the Company terminated its previous multi-currency unsecured $1.8 billion five-year and its unsecured $1 billion 364-day revolving credit facilities.
In May 2022, the Company secured a one-year $250 million uncommitted revolving credit facility with similar coverage and leverage ratios as the Credit Facility. In May 2023, the Company extended the facility until May 2024, at a reduced capacity of $200 million. At June 30, 2023, the Company had $200 million borrowings outstanding under this facility with a weighted average interest rate of 5.50%. There were no borrowings outstanding under this facility at December 31, 2022.
The Company also maintains other credit and overdraft facilities with various financial institutions aggregating $112 million at June 30, 2023. There were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company also has outstanding guarantees and letters of credit with various banks aggregating $118 million at June 30, 2023.
Senior Notes
In March 2023, the Company issued $600 million of 5.45% senior notes due 2053. The Company used the net proceeds from this issuance for general corporate purposes.
In October 2022, the Company issued $500 million of 5.75% senior notes due 2032 and $500 million of 6.25% senior notes due 2052. The Company used the net proceeds from these issuances for general corporate purposes and repaid $350 million of 3.30% senior notes in November 2022, with an original maturity date of March 2023.
Fair Value of Short-term and Long-term Debt
The estimated fair value of the Company's short-term and long-term debt is provided below. Certain estimates and judgments were required to develop the fair value amounts. The fair value amounts shown below are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company would realize upon disposition, nor do they indicate the Company’s intent or need to dispose of the financial instrument.

Long-term debt$10,247 $9,673 $11,227 $10,544 
The fair value of the Company's short-term debt consists of commercial paper, borrowings under the uncommitted credit facility, and term debt maturing within the next year and its fair value approximates its carrying value. The estimated fair value of a primary portion of the Company's long-term debt is based on discounted future cash flows using current interest rates available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Short-term and long-term debt would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
15.    Restructuring Costs
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company initiated activities focused on workforce actions, rationalization of technology and functional services, and reductions in real estate. Based on current estimates, the Company continues to anticipate total charges related to these activities to be between $375 million and $400 million. The Company has incurred approximately $300 million of restructuring costs through June 30, 2023, primarily severance and lease exit charges, of which $48 million and $72 million were for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The majority of the remaining costs are expected to be incurred in the remainder of 2023. The Company's plans are still being finalized, which may change the expected timing and estimates of expected costs, as the Company continues to refine its detailed plans for each business and location.
Restructuring activities also include charges related to improving the Company's global information technology function and improving efficiencies and client services related to the Marsh operational excellence program. In 2022, costs primarily related to remaining JLT integration.

16.    Common Stock
During the first six months of 2023, the Company repurchased 3.5 million shares of its common stock for $600 million. As of June 30, 2023, the Company remained authorized to repurchase up to approximately $3.7 billion in shares of its common stock. There is no time limit on the authorization. During the first six months of 2022, the Company repurchased 7.0 million shares of its common stock for $1.1 billion.
The Company issued approximately 2.8 million and 2.7 million shares related to stock compensation and employee stock purchase plans during the first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
In January and March of 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company declared quarterly dividends of $0.59 per share on outstanding common stock, which were paid in February and May 2023, respectively. In July 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.71 per share on outstanding common stock, payable in August, 2023.
17.    Claims, Lawsuits and Other Contingencies
Nature of Contingencies
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to a significant number of claims, lawsuits and proceedings in the course of our business. Such claims and lawsuits consist principally of alleged errors and omissions in connection with the performance of professional services, including the placement of insurance, the provision of actuarial services for corporate and public sector clients, the provision of investment advice and investment management services to pension plans, the provision of advice relating to pension buy-out transactions and the provision of consulting services relating to the drafting and interpretation of trust deeds and other documentation governing pension plans. These claims often seek damages, including punitive and treble damages, in amounts that could be significant. In establishing liabilities for errors and omissions claims in accordance with FASB guidance on Contingencies - Loss Contingencies, the Company uses case level reviews by inside and outside counsel, and
33


internal actuarial analysis by Oliver Wyman, a subsidiary of the Company, and other methods to estimate potential losses. A liability is established when a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. The liability is reviewed quarterly and adjusted as developments warrant. In many cases, the Company has not recorded a liability, other than for legal fees to defend the claim, because we are unable, at the present time, to make a determination that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. To the extent that expected losses exceed our deductible in any policy year, the Company also records an asset for the amount that we expect to recover under any available third-party insurance programs. The Company has varying levels of third-party insurance coverage, with policy limits and coverage terms varying significantly by policy year.
Our activities are regulated under the laws of the U.S. and its various states, the U.K., the E.U. and its member states, and the many other jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company also receives subpoenas in the ordinary course of business, and, from time to time, requests for information in connection with government investigations.
Current Matters
Risk and Insurance Services Segment
In January 2019, the Company received a notice that the Administrative Council for Economic Defense anti-trust agency in Brazil had commenced an administrative proceeding against a number of insurance brokers, including both Marsh and JLT, and insurers "to investigate an alleged sharing of sensitive commercial and competitive confidential information" in the aviation insurance and reinsurance sector.
From 2014, Marsh Ltd. was engaged by Greensill Capital (UK) Limited as its insurance broker. Marsh Ltd. placed a number of trade credit insurance policies for Greensill. On March 1, 2021, Greensill filed an action against certain of its trade credit insurers in Australia seeking a mandatory injunction compelling these insurers to renew coverage under expiring policies. Later that day, the Australian court denied Greensill’s application. Since then, a number of Greensill entities have filed for, or been subject to, insolvency proceedings, and several litigations and investigations have been commenced in the U.K., Australia, Germany, Switzerland and the U.S., including claims brought by Greensill's administrators and loss payees under Greensill's trade credit insurance policies. In June 2023, White Oak, one such loss payee, filed a claim in the High Court of Justice in London against Marsh Ltd., related to White Oak’s purchase of accounts receivable from Greensill. The claim alleges that Marsh Ltd., which was not the insurance broker for White Oak, failed to take required steps to ensure accurate representations to White Oak in its capacity as a loss payee.
At this time, we are unable to predict the likely timing, outcome or ultimate impact of the foregoing matters. Adverse determinations in one or more of these matters could have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial condition or cash flows in a future period.
Other Contingencies-Guarantees
In connection with its acquisition of U.K.-based Sedgwick Group in 1998, the Company acquired several insurance underwriting businesses that were already in run-off, including River Thames Insurance Company Limited ("River Thames"), which the Company sold in 2001. Sedgwick guaranteed payment of claims on certain policies underwritten through the Institute of London Underwriters (the "ILU") by River Thames. The policies covered by this guarantee are partly reinsured by a related party of River Thames. Payment of claims under the reinsurance agreement is collateralized by funds withheld by River Thames from the reinsurer. To the extent River Thames or the reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations under those policies, a claimant may seek to recover from the Company under the guarantee.
From 1980 to 1983, the Company owned indirectly the English & American Insurance Company ("E&A"), which was a member of the ILU. The ILU required the Company to guarantee a portion of E&A's obligations. After E&A became insolvent in 1993, the ILU agreed to discharge the guarantee in exchange for the Company's agreement to post an evergreen letter of credit that is available to pay claims by policyholders on certain E&A policies issued through the ILU and incepting between July 3, 1980 and October 6, 1983. Certain claims have been paid under the letter of credit and the Company anticipates that additional claimants may seek to recover against the letter of credit.

The pending proceedings described above and other matters not explicitly described in this Note 17 on Claims, Lawsuits and Other Contingencies may expose the Company or its subsidiaries to liability for significant monetary damages, fines, penalties or other forms of relief. Where a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, the Company establishes liabilities in accordance with FASB guidance on Contingencies - Loss Contingencies.
The Company is not able at this time to provide a reasonable estimate of the range of possible loss attributable to these matters or the impact they may have on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. This is primarily because these matters are still developing and involve complex issues subject to inherent uncertainty. Adverse determinations in one or more of these matters could have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial condition or cash flows in a future period.
18.    Segment Information
The Company is organized based on the types of services provided. Under this structure, the Company’s segments are:
Risk and Insurance Services, comprising insurance services (Marsh) and reinsurance services (Guy Carpenter); and

19.    New Accounting Guidance
New Accounting Pronouncement Adopted Effective January 1, 2022:
In October 2021, the FASB issued new guidance for measuring contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination. In accordance with the new guidance, contract assets and contract liabilities should be measured in accordance with the guidance for revenue from contracts with customers as opposed to the guidance for business combinations. The guidance must be applied on a prospective basis, and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to adopt this new standard effective January 1, 2022. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
General
Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company") is a global professional services firm offering clients advice in the areas of risk, strategy and people. The Company’s more than 85,000 colleagues advise clients in over 130 countries. With annual revenue of over $20 billion, the Company helps clients navigate an increasingly dynamic and complex environment through four market-leading businesses.
Marsh provides data-driven risk advisory services and insurance solutions to commercial and consumer clients. Guy Carpenter develops advanced risk, reinsurance and capital strategies that help clients grow profitably and identify and capitalize on emerging opportunities. Mercer delivers advice and technology-driven solutions that help organizations redefine the future of work, shape retirement and investment outcomes, and advance health and well-being for a changing workforce. Oliver Wyman Group serves as a critical strategic, economic and brand advisor to private sector and governmental clients.
The Company conducts business through two segments:
Risk and Insurance Services includes risk management activities (risk advice, risk transfer and risk control and mitigation solutions) as well as insurance and reinsurance broking and services. The Company conducts business in this segment through Marsh and Guy Carpenter.
Consulting includes health, wealth and career solutions and products, and specialized management, strategic, economic and brand consulting services. The Company conducts business in this segment through Mercer and Oliver Wyman Group.
The results of operations in the Management Discussion & Analysis ("MD&A") include an overview of the Company's consolidated results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the corresponding periods in 2022, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes. This section also includes a discussion of the key drivers impacting the Company's financial results of operations both on a consolidated basis and by reportable segments.
We describe the primary sources of revenue and categories of expense for each segment in the discussion of segment financial results. A reconciliation of segment operating income to total operating income is included in Note 18, Segment Information, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this report.
For information and comparability of the Company's results of operations and liquidity and capital resources for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, refer to "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.
This MD&A contains forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Refer to "Information Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" at the outset of this report.
Non-GAAP measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S.), referred to as in accordance with "GAAP" or "reported" results. The Company also refers to and presents a non-GAAP financial measure in non-GAAP revenue, within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company has included a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP as part of the consolidated revenue and expense discussion. Percentage changes, referred to as non-GAAP underlying revenue, are calculated by dividing the period over period change in non-GAAP revenue by the prior period non-GAAP revenue.
The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful supplemental information that enables investors to better compare the Company’s performance across periods. Management also uses this measure internally to assess the operating performance of its businesses and to decide how to allocate resources. However, investors should not consider this non-GAAP measure in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information that the Company reports in accordance with GAAP. The Company's non-GAAP measure includes adjustments that reflect how management views its businesses and may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures presented by other companies.

Consolidated operating income increased $93 million, or 7% to $1.5 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.4 billion in the corresponding quarter in the prior year, reflecting a 9% increase in revenue and a 10% increase in expenses. Revenue growth was driven by increases in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments of 12% and 4%, respectively.
Consolidated operating income increased $374 million, or 13% to $3.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $2.8 billion in the corresponding period in the prior year, reflecting an 8% increase in revenue and a 6% increase in expenses. Revenue growth was driven by increases in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments of 11% and 3%, respectively.
Revenue growth for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by continued demand for our advice and services, new business and renewal growth, and solid client retention, as well as higher insurance and reinsurance rates. Results also benefited from investments in talent and increased fiduciary income due to higher interest rates. Revenue growth was partially offset by a gain from the sale of the Mercer U.S. affinity business in 2022 of $112 million.
The increase in expenses for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily due to increased headcount and higher incentive compensation. Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 also reflect higher travel and entertainment costs, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, operating income was also impacted by foreign exchange movements across both segments due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar.
Diluted earnings per share increased to $2.07 from $1.91, or 8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and to $4.55 from $4.01, or 13% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to corresponding periods in the prior year. The increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily the result of higher operating income compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year.
Results for the six months ended June 30, 2022 also include a charge of approximately $52 million for the deconsolidation of the Company's Russian businesses and other related charges in Marsh and Oliver Wyman Group recorded in the first quarter of 2022.

Consolidated Revenue and Expense
Revenue – Non-GAAP Revenue and Components of Change
The Company conducts business in 130 countries. As a result, foreign exchange rate movements may impact period-to-period comparisons of revenue. Similarly, certain other items such as acquisitions and dispositions, including transfers among businesses, may impact period over period comparisons of revenue. Non-GAAP revenue measures the change in revenue from one period to the next by isolating these impacts on an underlying revenue basis. Percentage changes, referred to as non-GAAP underlying revenue, are calculated by dividing the period over period change in non-GAAP revenue by the prior period non-GAAP revenue.
The non-GAAP revenue measure is presented on a constant currency basis excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. The Company isolates the impact of foreign exchange rate movements period over period, by translating the current period foreign currency GAAP revenue into U.S. Dollars based on the difference in the current and corresponding prior period exchange rates.
The percentage change for acquisitions, dispositions, and other includes the impact of current and prior year items excluded from the calculation of non-GAAP underlying revenue for comparability purposes. Details on these items are provided in the reconciliation of non-GAAP revenue to GAAP revenue tables.
The following tables present the Company's non-GAAP revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and the related non-GAAP underlying revenue change:

Consolidated Revenue
Consolidated revenue increased $497 million, or 9% to $5.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $5.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Consolidated revenue increased 11% on an underlying basis, partially offset by decreases of 1% each from dispositions and the impact of foreign currency translation. On an underlying basis, revenue increased 13% and 8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments, respectively.
Consolidated revenue increased $872 million, or 8% to $11.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $10.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Consolidated revenue increased 10% on an underlying basis, partially offset by a decrease of 2% from the impact of foreign currency translation. On an underlying basis, revenue increased 12% and 6% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments, respectively.
Underlying revenue growth in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was driven by the continued demand for our advice and services, as well as growth in renewal and new business. Renewal growth was driven by client retention, exposure growth and higher insurance and reinsurance rates. Revenue growth also benefited from investments in talent and increased fiduciary income due to higher interest rates. Revenue in Consulting reflected underlying growth at both Mercer and Oliver Wyman Group. Mercer's results included growth in Health from new business, higher retention, increased enrolled lives from a strong labor market, and medical inflation across all segments. Career growth was driven by continued demand for rewards, talent strategy, and workforce transformation advice and solutions. Wealth also grew due to continued demand in defined benefit consulting and modest growth in investment management. Growth at Oliver Wyman Group was broad-based across practice groups.
Consolidated Operating Expenses
Consolidated operating expenses increased $404 million, or 10% to $4.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $4.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Expenses reflect a 2% increase from acquisitions and a decrease of 1% from the impact of foreign currency translation. Expenses, excluding the impact from acquisitions and foreign currency translation, increased 9% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, with increases of 9% and 8% in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments, respectively.
Consolidated operating expenses increased $498 million, or 6% to $8.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $8.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Expenses reflect a 1% increase from acquisitions and a decrease of 2% from the impact of foreign currency translation. Expenses, excluding the impact from acquisitions and foreign currency translation, increased 7% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, with increases of 8% and 5% in the Risk and Insurance Services and Consulting segments, respectively.
The increase in expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily due to increased headcount and higher incentive compensation. Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 also reflect higher travel and entertainment costs, primarily in the Risk and Insurance Services segment, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company initiated activities focused on workforce actions, rationalization of technology and functional services, and reductions in real estate. Based on current estimates, the Company continues to anticipate total charges related to these activities to be between $375 million and $400 million. The Company has incurred approximately $300 million of restructuring costs through June 30, 2023, primarily severance and lease exit charges, of which $48 million and $72 million were incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The majority of the remaining costs are expected to be incurred in the remainder of 2023. Related estimated savings are expected to be approximately $300 million by 2024, with $200 million expected to be realized in 2023.

The Company recorded net investment income of $3 million and $5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to net investment income of $2 million and $28 million, respectively, for the corresponding periods in the prior year. The decrease in the six months ended results in 2023 is primarily driven by lower mark-to-market gains from the Company's private equity investments compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.
Income and Other Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 24.4%, compared with 25.5% for the corresponding quarter of 2022. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was 24.6% for both periods.
The tax rate in each period reflects the impact of discrete tax items such as excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation, enacted tax legislation, changes in uncertain tax positions, deferred tax adjustments and non-taxable adjustments related to contingent consideration for acquisitions, and valuation allowances for certain tax credits and, or losses. The rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 reflects the previously enacted change in the U.K. corporate income tax rate from 19% to 25%, effective April 1, 2023. The blended U.K. statutory tax rate for 2023 is 23.5%.
The excess tax benefit related to share-based payments is the most significant discrete item in both periods, reducing the effective tax rate by 1.2% and 0.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and by 1.3% for the six months periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
The effective tax rate may vary significantly from period to period. The effective tax rate is sensitive to the geographic mix and repatriation of the Company's earnings, which may result in higher or lower effective tax rates. Therefore, a shift in the mix of profits among jurisdictions, or changes in the Company's repatriation strategy to access offshore cash, can affect the effective tax rate.
In addition, losses in certain jurisdictions cannot be offset by earnings from other operations and may require valuation allowances that affect the rate in a particular period, depending on estimates of the value of associated deferred tax assets which can be realized. A valuation allowance was recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that the Company believes is more likely than not to be realized. The effective tax rate is also
49


sensitive to changes in unrecognized tax benefits, including the impact of settled tax audits and expired statutes of limitations.
The Company has established liabilities for uncertain tax positions in relation to potential assessments in the jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company believes the resolution of tax matters will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company, although a resolution of tax matters could have a material impact on the Company's net income or cash flows and on its effective tax rate in a particular future period. It is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease up to approximately $52 million within the next 12 months due to settlement of audits and expiration of statutes of limitations.
Changes in tax laws, rulings, policies, or related legal and regulatory interpretations occur frequently and may have significant favorable or adverse impacts on our effective tax rate.
As a U.S. domiciled parent holding company, the Company is the issuer of essentially all the Company's external indebtedness, and incurs the related interest expense in the U.S. The Company’s interest expense deductions are not currently limited. Further, most senior executive and oversight functions are conducted in the U.S. and the associated costs are incurred primarily in the U.S. Some of these expenses may not be deductible in the U.S., which may impact the effective tax rate.
Changes to the U.S. tax law in recent years have allowed the Company to repatriate foreign earnings without incurring additional U.S. federal income tax costs as foreign income is generally already taxed in the U.S. However, permanent reinvestment continues to be a component of the Company's global capital strategy. The Company continues to evaluate its global investment and repatriation strategy in light of our capital requirements and potential costs of repatriation, which are generally limited to local country withholding taxes.
In addition to U.S. tax law changes, the Company's global operations make the tax rate sensitive to significant foreign tax law changes. A number of countries have begun to enact legislation to implement the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's ("OECD") international tax framework, including the Pillar II minimum tax regime with effect from January 1, 2024.
In July 2023, the U.K. enacted legislation to implement the OECD framework, effective from January 1, 2024. The implementation of the OECD framework in the U.K. will impose additional reporting and compliance obligations. This minimum tax will be treated as a period cost in future years and will not impact operating results for 2023. The Company is continuing to monitor legislative developments, especially in the European Union (E.U.) countries, and is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of the U.K. and other legislation on its results of future operations.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("IRA") was enacted into law. The Company evaluated the provisions of the new legislation, the most significant of which are the corporate alternative minimum tax and the share repurchase tax. The IRA was effective as of January 1, 2023, and does not have a significant impact on the Company's financial results of operations for the current year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is organized as a legal entity separate and distinct from its operating subsidiaries. As the Company does not have significant operations of its own, the Company is dependent upon dividends and other payments from its operating subsidiaries to pay principal and interest on its outstanding debt obligations, pay dividends to stockholders, repurchase its shares and pay corporate expenses. The Company can also provide financial support to its operating subsidiaries for acquisitions, investments and certain parts of their business that require liquidity, such as the capital markets business of Guy Carpenter. Other sources of liquidity include borrowing facilities discussed in financing cash flows.
The Company derives a significant portion of its revenue and operating profit from operating subsidiaries located outside of the U.S. Funds from those operating subsidiaries are regularly repatriated to the U.S. out of annual earnings. At June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $1.1 billion of cash and cash equivalents in its foreign operations, which includes $441 million of operating funds required to be maintained for regulatory requirements or as collateral under certain captive insurance arrangements. The Company expects to continue its practice of repatriating available funds from its non-U.S. operating subsidiaries out of current annual earnings. Where appropriate, a portion of the current year earnings will continue to be permanently reinvested.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded foreign currency translation adjustments which increased net equity by $258 million. Continued weakening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies would further increase the translated U.S. dollar value of the Company’s net investments in its non-U.S. subsidiaries, as well as the translated U.S. dollar value of cash repatriations from those subsidiaries.
Cash and cash equivalents on our consolidated balance sheets includes funds available for general corporate purposes. Fiduciary assets are shown separately in the consolidated balance sheets as cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity, with a corresponding amount in current liabilities. Fiduciary assets cannot be used for general corporate purposes, and should not be considered as a source of liquidity for the Company.
Operating Cash Flows
The Company provided $665 million of cash from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $580 million provided by operations in the first six months of 2022. These amounts reflect the net income of the Company during those periods, excluding gains or losses from investments, adjusted for non-cash charges and changes in working capital which relate primarily to the timing of payments of accrued liabilities, including incentive compensation, or receipts of receivables and pension plan contributions. The Company used cash of $151 million and $80 million related to its restructuring activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Pension Related Items
Contributions
The Company's policy for funding its tax-qualified defined benefit plans is to contribute amounts at least sufficient to meet the funding requirements set forth in accordance with applicable law. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company contributed $7 million and $15 million, respectively, to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans and $19 million and $32 million to its non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company contributed $7 million and $15 million to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans, respectively, $38 million and $98 million to its non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans, respectively.
In the U.S., contributions to the tax-qualified defined benefit plans are based on Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA") guidelines and the Company generally expects to maintain a funded status of 80% or more of the liability determined in accordance with the ERISA guidelines. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company made $7 million and $15 million, respectively, of contributions to its non-qualified plans and expects to fund approximately an additional $15 million over the remainder of 2023. The Company is not required to make any contributions to its U.S. qualified plans in 2023.
Outside the U.S., the Company has a large number of non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans, the largest of which are in the U.K., which comprise approximately 79% of non-U.S. plan assets at December 31, 2022. Contribution rates for non-U.S. plans are generally based on local funding practices and statutory requirements, which may differ significantly from measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
51


In the U.K., the assumptions used to determine pension contributions are the result of legally-prescribed negotiations between the Company and the plans' trustee that typically occur every 3 years in conjunction with the actuarial valuation of the plans. Currently, this results in a lower funded status compared to U.S. GAAP and may result in contributions irrespective of the U.S. GAAP funded status.
In 2021, the JLT Pension Scheme was merged into the MMC U.K. Pension Fund with a new segregated JLT section created. During the first six months of 2023, the Company made deficit contributions of $20 million to its U.K. plans, all in respect of the JLT section, and is expected to make $20 million of contributions in the remainder of 2023.
For the Marsh McLennan U.K. Pension Fund, excluding the JLT section, an agreement was reached with the trustee in the fourth quarter of 2022 based on the surplus funding position at December 31, 2021. In accordance with the agreement, no deficit funding is required until 2026. The funding level will be re-assessed during 2025 as part of the December 31, 2024 actuarial valuation to determine if contributions are required in 2026. As part of a long term strategy which depends on having greater influence over asset allocation and overall investment decisions, in December 2022, the Company renewed its agreement to support annual deficit contributions by the U.K. operating companies under certain circumstances, up to £450 million (or $569 million) over a seven-year period.
The Company expects to fund an additional $44 million to its non-U.S. defined benefit plans over the remainder of 2023, comprising approximately $20 million to the U.K. plans and $24 million to plans outside of the U.K.
Financing Cash Flows
Net cash provided by financing activities was $227 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared with $498 million provided by financing activities for the corresponding period in 2022.
Credit Facilities
The Company has a multi-currency unsecured $2.8 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), entered into on April 1, 2021. The interest rate on the Credit Facility was initially based on LIBOR plus a fixed margin which varies with the Company’s credit ratings. In the second quarter of 2023, the Credit Facility was amended so that borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal, at the borrower's option, either at (a) SOFR benchmark rate for U.S. dollar borrowings, or (b) a currency specific benchmark rate, plus an applicable margin which varies with the Company's credit ratings. The Credit Facility expires in April 2026, and requires the Company to maintain certain coverage and leverage ratios which are tested quarterly. The Credit Facility includes provisions for determining a benchmark replacement rate in the event existing benchmark rates are no longer available or in certain other circumstances in which an alternative rate may be required. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company had no borrowings under this facility.
In connection with the Credit Facility, the Company terminated its previous multi-currency unsecured $1.8 billion five-year and its unsecured $1 billion 364-day revolving credit facilities.
In May 2022, the Company secured a one-year $250 million uncommitted revolving credit facility with similar coverage and leverage ratios as the Credit Facility. In May 2023, the Company extended the facility until May 2024, at a reduced capacity of $200 million effective June 2023. At June 30, 2023, the Company had $200 million borrowings outstanding under this facility with a weighted average interest rate of 5.50%. There were no borrowings outstanding under this facility at December 31, 2022.
The Company also maintains other credit and overdraft facilities with various financial institutions aggregating $112 million at June 30, 2023. There were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company also has outstanding guarantees and letters of credit with various banks aggregating $118 million at June 30, 2023.
Debt
The Company has a short-term commercial paper financing program of $2.8 billion. The program was increased from $2.0 billion in October 2022. The Company had $308 million of commercial paper outstanding at June 30, 2023, at an average effective interest rate of 5.33%.
In March 2023, the Company issued $600 million of 5.45% senior notes due 2053. The Company used the net proceeds from this issuance for general corporate purposes.
52


In October 2022, the Company issued $500 million of 5.75% senior notes due 2032 and $500 million of 6.25% senior notes due 2052. The Company used the net proceeds from these issuances for general corporate purposes, and repaid $350 million of 3.30% senior notes in November 2022, with an original maturity date of March 2023.
The Company's senior debt is currently rated A- by Standard & Poor's ("S&P"), Baa1 by Moody's and A- by Fitch. The Company's short-term debt is currently rated A-2 by S&P, P-2 by Moody's and F-2 by Fitch. The Company carries a Positive outlook with Moody's and a Stable outlook with both S&P and Fitch.
Share Repurchases
During the first six months of 2023, the Company repurchased 3.5 million shares of its common stock for $600 million. As of June 30, 2023, the Company remained authorized to repurchase up to approximately $3.7 billion in shares of its common stock. There is no time limit on the authorization.
During the first six months of 2022, the Company repurchased 7.0 million shares of its common stock for $1.1 billion.
Dividends
The Company paid dividends on its common stock shares of $591 million ($1.18 per share) during the first six months of 2023, as compared with $547 million ($1.07 per share) during the first six months of 2022. In July 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.71 per share on outstanding common stock, payable in August 2023.
Contingent and Deferred Payments Related to Acquisitions
The classification of contingent consideration in the consolidated statements of cash flows is dependent upon whether the receipt, payment, or adjustment was part of the initial liability established on the acquisition date (financing) or an adjustment to the acquisition date liability (operating).
The following amounts are included in the consolidated statements of cash flows as operating and financing activities:
For the Six Months Ended June 30,
(In millions)20232022
Operating:
Contingent consideration payments for prior year acquisitions$(41)$(18)

Contingent consideration for prior year acquisitions$(134)$(16)
Deferred consideration related to prior year acquisitions (51)(76)
Payments of deferred and contingent consideration for acquisitions$(185)$(92)
Receipt of contingent consideration for dispositions$2 $
For acquisitions completed during the first six months of 2023 and in prior years, remaining estimated future contingent payments of $223 million and deferred consideration payments of $92 million, are recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities or other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2023.
Derivatives - Net Investment Hedge
The Company has investments in various subsidiaries with Euro functional currencies. As a result, the Company is exposed to the risk of fluctuations between the Euro and U.S. dollar exchange rates. As part of its risk management program, the Company issued €1.1 billion Senior Notes, and designated the debt instruments as a net investment hedge of its Euro denominated subsidiaries. The hedge is re-assessed each quarter to confirm that the designated equity balance at the beginning of each period continues to equal or exceed 80% of the outstanding balance of the Euro debt instrument and that all the critical terms of the hedging instrument and the hedged net investment continue to match. If the hedge is highly effective, the change in the debt balance related
53


to foreign exchange fluctuations is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets.
The U.S. dollar value of the Euro notes increased by $33 million through June 30, 2023, related to the change in foreign exchange rates. The Company concluded that the hedge was highly effective and recorded as an increase to accumulated other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Purchase of remaining non-controlling interest
In the second quarter of 2023, the Company purchased the remaining interest in a subsidiary for $139 million.
Fiduciary Liabilities
Since fiduciary assets are not available for corporate use, they are shown separately in the consolidated balance sheets as cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity, with a corresponding amount in current liabilities. Financing cash flows reflect an increase of $682 million and $1.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to fiduciary liabilities.
Investing Cash Flows
Net cash used for investing activities amounted to $501 million for the first six months of 2023, compared with $258 million used for investing activities for the corresponding period in 2022.
The Company paid $292 million and $151 million, net of cash, cash equivalents and cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity acquired, for acquisitions it made during the first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The outflow of funds in 2023 primarily relates to the completion of the Westpac Transaction for $233 million.
In connection with the disposition of Mercer's U.S. affinity business in 2022, the Company transferred to the buyer an additional $20 million of cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity during the first quarter of 2023.
During the first six months of 2022, the Company sold certain businesses, primarily Mercer's U.S. affinity business, for cash proceeds of approximately $143 million.
The Company's additions to fixed assets and capitalized software, which amounted to $185 million during the first six months of 2023, and $239 million during the first six months of 2022, related primarily to computer equipment purchases, the refurbishing and modernizing of office facilities, and software development costs.
Cash used for long term investments in the first six months of 2023 is due to investments in private equity funds. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has commitments for potential future investments of approximately $132 million in private equity funds that invest primarily in financial services companies, including a $80 million commitment to invest in a private equity fund entered into on April 1, 2022.

The table does not include the liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $107 million as the Company is unable to reasonably predict the timing of settlement of these liabilities, other than approximately $44 million that may become payable within one year. The table also does not include the remaining transitional tax payments related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("the TCJA") of $58 million, which will be paid in installments from 2024 through 2026.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk and Credit Risk
Certain of the Company’s revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and equity markets.
Interest Rate Risk and Credit Risk
Interest income generated from the Company's cash, cash equivalents, and cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity will vary with the general level of interest rates.
The Company had the following investments subject to variable interest rates:
(In millions)June 30, 2023December 31, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents$1,171 $1,442 
Cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity$11,564 $10,660 
Based on the above balances at June 30, 2023, if short-term interest rates increased or decreased by 10%, or 38 basis points, over the course of the remainder of the year, annual interest income, including interest earned on cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity, would increase or decrease by approximately $24 million. At December 31, 2022, a change in short-term interest rates of 10% or 25 basis points would have increased or decreased interest income by approximately $30 million. The change in interest rate risk at June 30, 2023 is due to higher short-term interest rates compared to the prior year.
Changes in interest rates can also affect the discount rate and assumed rate of return on plan assets, two of the assumptions among several others used to measure net periodic pension expense. The assumptions used to measure plan assets and liabilities are typically assessed at the end of each year, and determine the expense for the subsequent year. Assumptions used to determine net periodic cost for 2023 are discussed in Note 8, Retirement Benefits, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. For a discussion on pension expense sensitivity to changes in these rates, see the "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Management’s Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates - Retirement Benefits" section of our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In addition to interest rate risk, our cash investments and fiduciary cash investments are subject to potential loss of value due to counter-party credit risk. To minimize this risk, the Company and its subsidiaries invest pursuant to a Board-approved investment policy. The policy mandates the preservation of principal and liquidity and requires broad diversification with counter-party limits assigned based primarily on credit rating and type of investment. The Company carefully monitors its cash, cash equivalents, and cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity, and will further restrict the portfolio as appropriate to market conditions. The majority of cash, cash equivalents, and cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity are invested in bank or short-term time deposits and liquid money market funds.
Foreign Currency Risk
The translated values of revenue and expense from the Company’s international operations are subject to fluctuations due to changes in currency exchange rates. The non-U.S. based revenue that is exposed to foreign exchange fluctuations is approximately 52% of total revenue. We periodically use forward contracts and options to limit foreign currency exchange rate exposure on net income and cash flows for specific, clearly defined transactions arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company has significant revenue generated in foreign locations which is subject to foreign exchange rate fluctuations, in most cases both the foreign currency revenue and expense are in the functional currency of the foreign location. As such, under normal circumstances, the U.S. dollar translation of both the revenue and expense, as well as the potentially offsetting movements of various currencies against the U.S. dollar, generally tend to mitigate the impact on net operating income of foreign currency risk.
However, there have been periods where the impact was not mitigated due to external market factors, and external macroeconomic events may result in greater foreign exchange rate fluctuations in the future. If foreign exchange rates of major currencies (Euro, British Pound, Australian dollar and Canadian dollar) moved 10% in the same direction against the U.S. dollar that held constant over the course of the year, the Company estimates that full year net operating income would increase or decrease by approximately $82 million. The Company has
56


exposure to over 80 foreign currencies. If exchange rates at June 30, 2023, hold constant for the rest of 2023, the Company estimates the year-over-year impact from the conversion of foreign currency earnings will decrease full year net operating income by approximately $40 million.
In Continental Europe, the largest amount of revenue from renewals for the Risk and Insurance Services segment occurs in the first quarter.
Equity Price Risk
The Company holds investments at June 30, 2023 in both public and private companies as well as private equity funds, including investments of approximately $16 million that are valued using readily determinable fair values and approximately $34 million of investments without readily determinable fair values. The Company also has investments of approximately $249 million that are accounted for using the equity method. The investments are subject to risk of decline in market value, which, if determined to be other than temporary for assets without readily determinable fair values, could result in realized impairment losses. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of such investments to determine if any valuation adjustments are appropriate under the applicable accounting pronouncements.
Other
A number of lawsuits and regulatory proceedings are pending. See Note 17, Claims, Lawsuits and Other Contingencies, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Item 4. Controls & Procedures.
a. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
