Construction

The construction industry is characterized by multiple risk variables that impact on safety, timing, completion, and profitability. Marsh’s globally-aligned team of construction industry specialists can work with you to create tailored risk and insurance solutions.

Construction is an essential industry for the global economy and activity in the sector is constant. There will always be a need for the renewal of existing and the creation of new infrastructure. But as the build cycle is often driven by socio-economic factors, it can be quite volatile. Construction companies need to have an acute awareness of current and emerging risk issues and be able to respond quickly to changing circumstances.

Digitalization, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors including climate risks, rising construction costs, and supply chain chokepoints are some of the current challenges shaping construction companies’ risk profiles. Understanding their impact allows for the design of a considered risk management framework that balances an organization’s retention, management, and transfer needs.
