Aon has a strong commitment to the financial institutions industry, which has lead to the development of a Global Practice Group that brings together all our specialist resources and relevant expertise into one co-ordinated team dedicated to serving clients in this specific sector. Our financial institutions group delivers the global strength of the entire Aon organisation with local knowledge through our offices worldwide.

Collaborating with our clients, we evaluate a financial institution's complexity, industry profile, geographic scope, and other characteristics. From there, we identify their complete risk management needs and then create comprehensive, customised solutions that draw from Aon's full range of products and services - based upon a variety of risk categories.

Once the company has been evaluated, a number of factors effect the purchase and arrangement of insurance programs, such as:

• Regulatory pressures
• Diversity of business activities
• Geographical spread
• "Appetite" for risk
• Loss history
• Strength of balance sheet
• Size of institution
• Peer group limits
