Cash, infrastructure and emerging markets gain ground as large asset owners seek to manage volatility spikes, according to Marsh

Marsh's 2026 Global Asset Owner Barometer, a survey of 430 asset owners overseeing a combined US$5.76 trillion across 25 countries, found large asset owners rotating toward infrastructure, cash and emerging markets to manage volatility spikes. Just over half (51%) of respondents plan to increase infrastructure allocations over the next 12 months, 47% plan to add emerging market equities, and 38% plan to raise cash allocations — up from 9% in 2025 — while private debt intentions fell to 34% from 48% a year ago despite 96% holding private market exposure. AI is a fast-rising spending priority, with 58% of asset owners calling AI tools a capital expenditure priority over the next 12 months, yet only 13% report having enterprise-wide AI governance policies. For Marsh itself the release is thought leadership rather than a financial event, reinforcing client demand themes — diversification, inflation protection and risk management — that feed its consulting and investment advisory franchise.

Employers Expect Health Benefit Costs to Jump 8.2% in 2027, and the Impact Will Likely Be Felt by Workers, According to Marsh

Marsh's preliminary 2026 National Survey of Employer-Sponsored Health Plans projects employer health benefit costs will rise 8.2% on average in 2027, the steepest increase since 2003. Employers said their current plans would climb 11% on average if they took no action, and rising GLP-1 weight-loss drug utilization alone accounts for a full percentage point of next year's growth. The cost squeeze lands on workers: 59% of employers plan cost-cutting changes to health benefits in 2027, and about two-thirds of large employers expect to increase employees' share of premium costs. For Marsh, the findings reinforce demand for its health and benefits advisory franchise, though the release discloses no direct financial impact or guidance for the firm.
