Is Marsh McLennan Agency Legit? Licensing, Carriers and Reliability

Marsh McLennan Agency has no Broker Reliability Score because the reviewed evidence is insufficient for a numerical assessment. Reliability Scores assess documented reliability within the reviewed scope; they do not predict claims payment.

Marsh McLennan Agency Broker Reliability Score

Assessment status unavailable

No numerical score is published. The evidence we found doesn't settle which Marsh McLennan Agency entity will place a given policy, and a proposed name change is still open. Ask for the contracting producer and insurer in your proposal.

What Evidence Supports Spot’s Assessment of Marsh McLennan Agency?

Role: Broker. Scope: Marsh McLennan Agency (MMA), the US middle-market brokerage arm of Marsh, and its legal entity Marsh & McLennan Agency LLC. MMA also operates in Canada; this packet covers the US only. Ratings or complaints for Marsh (global, UK Marsh Commercial) are not used. No numerical Reliability Score is included.

Marsh McLennan Agency Identity and authority

Marsh lists Marsh & McLennan Agency LLC as the current US legal entity for Marsh Agency (formerly MMA), with Marsh Agency LLC proposed. The accepted Louisiana record names the current LLC as a Producer Agency for Louisiana. Separately, the provider-published Thompkins Masonic program page names Marsh & McLennan Insurance Agency LLC and prints California license identifier spellings OH18131 and 0H18131 in different page locations. Do not collapse these legal entities, resolve the spelling discrepancy, infer a nationwide license, or assign either disclosure to an unrelated policy placement.[5][6][7][1][13]

Marsh McLennan Agency Financial evidence

No MMA-specific balance sheet, capital/liquidity evidence, parent guarantee, or account-specific insurer was established from the reviewed identity and service pages. Marsh parent consolidated figures and Marsh USA LLC evidence are not substituted for MMA or a policy insurer.[2][5][8]

Marsh McLennan Agency Claims and servicing

Accepted Tampa research lists InsurLink policy/endorsement access, CSR24 certificates, carrier claim contacts and a local consultant route for that office. MMA’s business-interruption page describes advocacy with insurers for complex claim issues. This does not establish claim adjustment, payment, insurer identity, or a general service-level promise.[9][4]

Marsh McLennan Agency Carrier network

MMA says it works with a wide variety of carriers but the reviewed page names no carriers, appointments, placement shares, terms, or account-specific insurer. Carrier strength is not transferred to MMA.[8]

Marsh McLennan Agency Regulatory conduct

Texas has disciplined Marsh & McLennan Agency LLC for the same problem more than once: filing surplus lines policies late with the state stamping office. A consent order dated 2025-12-18 (No. 2025-9693) imposed $59,825 for late filings in 2024. A consent order dated 2024-10-03 (No. 2024-8885) imposed $28,300 for late filings in 2023. The 2025 order lists earlier orders from 2017, 2018, 2020 and 2024. These are paperwork-timing violations, not findings that claims were mishandled.[10][11]

A search also surfaced Alaska Division of Insurance orders (for example D23-03) naming the company. We haven't confirmed their contents, so we report no details. We did not check other states' regulators or the NIPR database, so this is not a complete conduct history.[12][6]

Marsh McLennan Agency Disclosure and compensation

The legal page distinguishes the current MMA entity from a proposed name; reviewed service pages do not provide buyer-specific compensation or name the issuer for a specific policy. Request the contracting producer, insurer, compensation basis and claims contact in the proposal.[5][8]

Marsh McLennan Agency Complaints and accountability evidence

BBB's San Diego-area profile for Marsh & McLennan Agency LLC (grade A, accredited) shows four complaints closed in three years, one in the last 12 months. Examples include a commercial vehicle cancellation dispute and one personal-lines claim; the company answered the vehicle complaint. BBB's Dayton and Schaumburg office profiles show A+ and zero complaints in three years. Complaints are unverified customer accounts with no client-count denominator.[3][14][15]

Evidence Gaps in Spot’s Review of Marsh McLennan Agency

  • The contracting producer and issuer for a specific placement, as stated in that buyer’s proposal.
  • Completion status by state for proposed Marsh Agency LLC name.
  • Issuing insurer/program administrator for each quote.
  • MMA-entity financial statements, liquidity or parent support obligation.
  • Named carrier appointments, placement shares and line-specific network evidence.
  • A complete identity-scoped conduct picture beyond the bounded BBB evidence currently recorded.
  • Buyer-specific compensation, service agreement and fee/commission terms.
  • Full policy forms, limits, retentions, exclusions and claims administrator.
  • Alaska Division of Insurance orders naming the company (such as D23-03) exist, but their amounts and findings haven't been confirmed.
  • Only Louisiana and Texas were checked against regulator records. No NIPR/NPN lookup or other state license search was done, and no license status was verified live for Texas.
  • MMA operates in Canada too; no Canadian provincial regulator was researched.
