The simplified name “Mercer” will now be the new brand identification for Mercer Human Resource Consulting.

Mercer is recognized as a HR consulting firm, with expertise in human capital management, retirement, compensation and health and benefits, says chair and CEO M. Michele Burns.

“The fact is, however, that Mercer provides a much broader array of solutions than those for which we have traditionally been known, and our business growth is fueled by a number of new initiatives.”

Mercer will also drop its sub-brands, such as Mercer Investment Consulting and Mercer Global Investments.
