January 13, 2026

This proprietary study, backed by more than a decade of data collection, delivers unparalleled insights into compensation trends, structures, and strategies shaping the future of the industry.

Why This Matters Now

In today’s competitive environment, compensation is more than a paycheck—it’s a strategic lever for attracting, retaining, and motivating top talent. Yet, many firms operate with outdated models that fail to align with evolving market dynamics. MarshBerry’s latest study addresses this gap by providing actionable intelligence to help firms stay ahead.

  • Benchmarking: Access current benchmarks for producer and service roles to evaluate competitiveness.
  • Strategic Alignment: Learn how to design compensation packages that drive growth and support equitable practices.

“Compensation strategies that worked five years ago may not work today,” said MarshBerry Chief Executive Officer, John Wepler. “Regularly reviewing and adjusting your approach ensures alignment with market trends, fosters engagement and ultimately drives organizational performance. At MarshBerry, we believe informed decisions around compensation are critical to building a thriving workforce.”
