Company history:
The firm which became the Sedgwick Group was founded in 1879 by HBL Sedgwick. He started the business as an insurance broker, having been elected an underwriting member of Lloyd's in 1877.
Sedgwick was acquired by Marsh & McLennan Companies in 1998 and there is now a global strategy to bring together these two highly respected businesses in the risk management and insurance markets.
