Marsh launches Marsh Nexus Captive Solution

NEW YORK, June 16, 2026 ─ Marsh (NYSE: MRSH), a global leader in risk, reinsurance and capital, people and investments, and management consulting, today announced the launch of Marsh Nexus Captive Solution (Marsh Nexus), an innovative captive insurance offering which supports multinational organizations in managing the risks and costs associated with their international employee benefits programs.

According to Marsh's Health Trends 2026 report, employer-provided health plans face intense pressure amid projected double-digit increases on health benefits costs across most markets. While some multinational organizations can manage international health plan risk as part of their overall risk management strategy, others lack the scale or resources required to create sustainable benefits programs through risk retention solutions such as captives.

Marsh Nexus, which operates through Marsh's Mangrove Protected Cell Company domiciled in Washington, D.C., is a cell captive structure designed for clients with an employee benefits spend outside the US of more than $3 million annually. By combining Marsh's global scale with an innovative portfolio management approach, Marsh Nexus affords more organizations access to a captive insurance facility, while reducing administrative complexity and accelerating the path to greater cost efficiencies.

Commenting on the launch, Paul Lewis, Mercer Marsh Benefits' Multinational Advisory Growth Leader, said: "With the continued trend of rising global healthcare costs, organizations are focused on how to balance cost management while still providing valued, personalized employee benefit programs across the world. By reducing the administrative effort and costs associated with utilizing a single parent captive, Marsh Nexus is a cost-efficient vehicle that complements broader benefits strategies and supports multinational organizations in optimizing next-generation employee benefit programs."

Donna Weber, Marsh Captive Solutions' Global Pooling and Cell Facilities Leader, added: "The use of captives for international employee benefits has more than doubled in the last five years, and more than 140 companies now have in excess of $3 billion in premium. Through the power of Marsh - the world's largest captive insurance manager - Marsh Nexus enables clients to take an off-the-shelf, low-cost approach to risk retention and break new ground in managing mounting international employee benefits costs."
