Market moves: Big brokers lead the way

The big-name brokers contributed many column inches to this month’s Market moves section, with Marsh announcing the departure of its parent company’s CEO and Miller going to Willis to expand its corporate risks team. And Giles was very busy indeed, with a departure, an appointment at one of its Scottish branches, and a big boost for its subsidiary FSJ. The market is clearly still feeling the effects of last month’s dramatic network moves. Another firm with a string of changes was Keelan Westall, which went on a recruitment drive, with six new additions to the business.

A large portion of the moves last month came from the larger brokers. Marsh poached Richard Higgins from Lloyd & Partner and unveiled him as global upstream and midstream leader within its energy practice.

The broker’s parent company Marsh & McLennan Companies is saying goodbye to its chairman and CEO Brian Duperreault at the end of the year. He will be replaced by Daniel Glaser, who is currently group president and chief operating officer at the broker.

And Miller has appointed Jeremy Dutton
