Applications for Risk and Insurance
Marsh, a global leader in insurance broking and innovative risk
management solutions, today announced that it has joined the
Enterprise Ethereum Alliance (EEA), the world's largest open source
blockchain initiative with more than 400 member companies. The EEA
seeks to create open industry standards and frameworks for
blockchain applications based on the core Ethereum platform.
Marsh is the first insurance broker to be part of the EEA, which
includes some of the world’s leading organizations in technology,

play an active role in the Insurance Working Group and the Digital
Identity Working Group, collaborating with the alliance members in
leading and driving the adoption of blockchain applications.
“We see the potential of blockchain technology as having a
game-changing impact on the risk management and insurance industry
— one that enables the creation of new business models, products,
and platforms that better serve our clients in the new economy,”
said Sastry Durvasula, Chief Digital Officer and Chief Data &
Analytics Officer, Marsh. “By joining the EEA, we will be able to
collaborate with other members to explore new solutions and
disruptive use cases, while participating in the evolution of
Ethereum into enterprise-grade blockchain technology.”

consortium that seeks to leverage the blockchain to lower industry
transaction costs while increasing the speed and security of data

About The Enterprise Ethereum Alliance
The EEA is an industry-supported, not-for-profit established to
build, promote, and broadly support Ethereum-based technology best
practices, open standards, and open-source reference architectures.
The EEA is helping to evolve Ethereum into an enterprise-grade
technology, providing research and development in a range of areas,
including privacy, confidentiality, scalability, and security. The
EEA is also investigating hybrid architectures that span both
permissioned and public Ethereum networks as well as
industry-specific application layer working groups.
EEA will collectively develop open industry standards and
