Aon Global Risk Consulting has acquired the assets of Dempsey Partners, a consulting firm that provides forensic accounting, claims management, and risk consulting services. Dempsey staff will form a consulting unit at Aon that focuses on claims preparation, business interruption valuations, and related forensic accounting services to the risk management sector.

“Major loss events of the past years have consistently demonstrated the need for high-quality claims services, specifically in the property, business interruption, and contingent business interruption arenas,” says Neil Harrison, group managing director, risk control, claims, and engineering at Aon. “By bringing Dempsey Partners to Aon, we can supplement our claims expertise as well as provide critical support to clients seeking to ensure the adequacy of their business interruption coverage in advance of any loss.”
