Mercer has appointed Ravi Rastogi as a partner and insurance group leader to head the expansion of its insurance group with immediate effect.

He will be based in the London office, with responsibility for providing overall leadership of the insurance group. He will also strengthen existing partnerships with Marsh & McLennan’s other operating companies, Marsh, Guy Carpenter and Oliver Wyman.
The group is also tasked with developing tailored services for the sector, including sophisticated risk management solutions and a delegated investment solution for captives.
Andrew Kirton, senior partner at Mercer and investments leader of the Europe and Pacific region, commented: “Our intention is that Rastogi and his Mercer colleagues help Marsh & McLennan deliver a range of risk management and investment services to the insurance market.”
He added: “We have ambitious expansion plans for our insurance group. Rastogi will bring knowledge, energy and innovative thinking to this important initiative. He will strengthen Mercer’s insurance expertise for complex investment strategy advice and solutions, and help us add greater value to our clients.”
