INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains "forward-looking statements," as

"assume," "believe," "continue," "estimate," "expect," "intend,"
"plan," "project" and similar terms, and future or conditional
tense verbs like "could," "may," "might," "should, " "will" and

Forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements.
Factors that could materially affect our future results include,
among other things:
-- the impact of geopolitical or macroeconomic conditions on us, our
clients and the countries and industries in which we operate, including
from conflicts such as the war in Ukraine and the evolving events in
Israel and Gaza, slower GDP growth or recession, capital markets
volatility, and inflation;
-- the increasing prevalence of ransomware, supply chain and other forms
of cyber attacks, and their potential to disrupt our operations, or the
operations of our third party vendors, and result in the disclosure of
confidential client or company information;
-- the impact from lawsuits or investigations arising from errors and
omissions, breaches of fiduciary duty or other claims against us in our
capacity as a broker or investment advisor, including claims related to
our investment business' ability to execute timely trades;
-- the financial and operational impact of complying with laws and
regulations, including domestic and international sanctions regimes,
anti-corruption laws such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, U.K.
Anti Bribery Act and cybersecurity, data privacy and artificial
intelligence regulations;
-- our ability to attract, retain and develop industry leading talent;
-- our ability to compete effectively and adapt to competitive pressures
in each of our businesses, including from disintermediation as well as
technological change, digital disruption and other types of innovation
such as artificial intelligence;
-- our ability to manage potential conflicts of interest, including where
our services to a client conflict, or are perceived to conflict, with the
interests of another client or our own interests;
-- the impact of changes in tax laws, guidance and interpretations, such
as the implementation of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and
Development international tax framework, or the increasing number of
disagreements with and challenges by tax authorities in the current
global tax environment; and
-- the regulatory, contractual and reputational risks that arise based on
insurance placement activities and insurer revenue streams.
The factors identified above are not exhaustive. Marsh McLennan
and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") operate in a
dynamic business environment in which new risks emerge frequently.
Accordingly, we caution readers not to place undue reliance on any

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Three Months Ended September 30
(Millions) (Unaudited)
Overview
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(referred to in this release as in accordance with "GAAP" or
"reported" results). The Company also refers to and presents
certain additional non-GAAP financial measures, within the meaning
of Regulation G and item 10(e) Regulation S-K in accordance with
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These measures are: non-GAAP
revenue, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted operating
margin, adjusted income, net of tax and adjusted earnings per share
(EPS). The Company has included reconciliations of these non-GAAP
financial measures to the most directly comparable financial
measure calculated in accordance with GAAP in the following
tables.
The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide
useful supplemental information that enables investors to better
compare the Company's performance across periods. Management also
uses these measures internally to assess the operating performance
of its businesses and to decide how to allocate resources. However,
investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation
from, or as a substitute for, the financial information that the
Company reports in accordance with GAAP. The Company's non-GAAP
measures include adjustments that reflect how management views its
businesses, and may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures
presented by other companies.
Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) and Adjusted Operating
Margin
Adjusted operating income (loss) is calculated by excluding the
impact of certain noteworthy items from the Company's GAAP
operating income (loss). The following tables identify these
noteworthy items and reconcile adjusted operating income (loss) to
GAAP operating income (loss), on a consolidated and reportable
segment basis, for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2023 and 2022. The following tables also present adjusted operating
margin. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and
2022, adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing the sum
of adjusted operating income and identified intangible asset
amortization by consolidated or segment adjusted revenue. The
Company's adjusted revenue used in the determination of adjusted
operating margin is calculated by excluding the impact of certain
noteworthy items from the Company's GAAP revenue.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Three Months Ended September 30
(Millions) (Unaudited)
Non-GAAP revenue isolates the impact of foreign exchange rate
movements and certain transaction-related items from the current
period GAAP revenue. The non-GAAP revenue measure is presented on a
constant currency basis, excluding the impact of foreign currency
fluctuations. The Company isolates the impact of foreign exchange
rate movements period over period, by translating the current
period foreign currency GAAP revenue into U.S. Dollars based on the
difference in the current and corresponding prior period exchange
rates. Similarly, certain other items such as acquisitions and
dispositions, including transfers among businesses, may impact
period over period comparisons of revenue and are consistently
excluded from current and prior period GAAP revenues for
comparability purposes. Percentage changes, referred to as non-GAAP
underlying revenue, are calculated by dividing the period over
period change in non-GAAP revenue by the prior period non-GAAP
revenue.
The following table provides the reconciliation of GAAP revenue
to non-GAAP revenue:
