BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Reprints

NEW YORK—Marsh Inc. has added four executives from rival brokerage Aon Corp. to its private equity and mergers and acquisitions practice within its financial and professional—or FINPRO—operations, Marsh said Wednesday.

James O'Brien, who headed Aon's private equity and transactions group, joins Marsh as a managing director.

Jason Hawkins, who had been a senior adviser in Aon's private equity group, also was named a managing director, as was Craig Warnke, most recently a transactional adviser in the Aon unit.

In addition, Marsh named Jim Beatty, who previously was a client advisor at Aon, as senior vp.

Marsh also named Machua Millett as a senior vp. Previously, he was with Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge L.L.P., where he was coverage and defense counsel for directors and officers, general partners, financial institutions, insurers and corporations in a wide variety of industries.

The four former Aon executives will be based in New York, while Mr. Millett will be based in Boston.
