Segment Information 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

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those utilized for the consolidated financial statements described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Company’s 2021 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.
