Segment Information
Segment Information
The Company is organized based on the types of services provided. Under this organizational structure, the Company’s business segments are:
Risk and Insurance Services, comprising insurance services (Marsh) and reinsurance services (Guy Carpenter); and
Consulting, comprising Mercer and Oliver Wyman Group
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those used for the consolidated financial statements described in Note 1 to the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K. Segment performance is evaluated based on segment operating income, which includes directly related expenses, and charges or credits related to integration and restructuring but not the Company’s corporate-level expenses. Revenues are attributed to geographic areas on the basis of where the services are performed.
Selected information about the Company’s operating segments for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:
