Educational institutions are exposed to a myriad of risks that emanate from a diverse range of operations and activities. In 2008, educational institutions face a range of challenges, including breaches of data security, a rise in student mental health issues, an increased focus on disaster planning and campus security, the need to balance deferred maintenance with the desire to build state-of-the-art facilities, and a crisis in the student loan industry.  By 2015, these challenges will be compounded by the strategic plans embraced by most institutions to become ever more global in their missions, operations, and research programs.  

Marsh collects and maintains extensive benchmark data for a wide variety of industries and risks. Our information is collected, aggregated, and analyzed by our industry and risk practice experts across the country.

Marsh's Education Practice has produced a new annual benchmark study, which compares the risk management and insurance programs of more than 150 buyers of insurance products in the educational sector in the United States. This report combines our most current benchmarking data into one single and uniform document focused on education. Benchmarking is an extremely valuable tool that helps us validate insurance-program design, renewal strategies, and pricing targets to achieve positive results for our clients.

Marsh's Education Risk Benchmark Report is intended to be a supplemental resource to help our clients make more informed decisions about their insurance programs. The report also outlines some of the recent trends in the insurance market for educational institutions and provides information on all major lines of coverage.
