Marsh has formed a Global Claims Practice.

Marsh’s head of claims for the international division and EMEA David Pigot will lead the new practice from London in the new role of Global Head of Claims for the broking giant.

Pigot joined Marsh in 2004 after 24 years as an international claims adjuster at Toplis & Harding and Cunningham Lindsey International.

The practice will draw on Marsh’s 1350-strong claims staff.

Pigot said. “One of the most critical services Marsh provides to its clients is the proper handling of claims. Ultimately, an efficient and accurate claims recovery process can help clients avoid exorbitant costs and additional risks. With the formation of a Global Claims Practice, Marsh will be in a better position to respond with agility to our clients’ claims anywhere in the world.”
