Barclay's has started coverage of Marsh & McLennan Companies (MMC) with an equal-weight recommendation. Goldman Sachs predicts the company's long-term rally through artificial intelligence (AI). Investment management firms such as AQR Capital and British Columbia Investment Management Corporation have increased their shares in MMC. The company's third-quarter earnings investor call is scheduled for October 17.
MMC's arm has purchased The Horton Group Inc. and continued its acquisition spree with other firms, including Perkins Insurance and Amertistar Agency. Meanwhile, a new report by WeBank and Oliver Wyman discusses global digital banks' development and innovation trends. The firm also increased its quarterly cash dividend and reported solid financial performance for 2023 and Q2 2024.
Despite high costs potentially affecting MMC's Q2 earnings, the company's recent acquisitions and the declaration of their quarterly cash dividend could minimize investor risk. Lastly, MMC's move to launch an AI-powered solution, potentially transforming supply chain risk management, seems to reflect its continued strategic innovation.
