                  This case deals with the problems facing MMC in three of its key business areas, which surfaced in quick succession in 2003 and 2004. Its focus is primarily on the reputation risks facing the firm, and how shareholder value can be destroyed when such risks materialize.

                      There are few industries in which the effects of technological innovation be seen as clearly as they can in the healthcare industry. Developments in devices, services and networks are in turn creating even more opportunities and innovation. This case looks specifically at developments in Artificial Intelligence technologies, and the impact these might have on the treatment of certain diseases.

                              The global insurance industry is in the process of dramatic transformation. Whereas reinsurance has historically been highly globalized, life and nonlife insurance have traditionally been confined to national markets by legal, tax and regulatory regimes.
