BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Aon P.L.C. on Friday said revenue for the fourth quarter of 2015 was flat as the brokerage showed stability in its risk management and human resources management divisions.

Aon reported $3.29 billion in fourth-quarter revenue, which was relatively flat compared with revenue of $3.30 billion in the prior-year quarter. Commissions and fees for the quarter were $3.29 billion, also relatively flat compared with $3.31 billion in commissions and fees for the fourth quarter of 2014.

Aon said it experienced relatively stable fourth-quarter revenues in its Aon Risk Solutions and Aon HR Solutions segments.

Aon Risk Solutions reported revenue of $2.01 billion for the recent quarter, down 2.3% from the fourth quarter of 2014. Aon HR Solutions reported revenue of $1.29 billion for the fourth quarter of 2015, up 2.4% from a year ago.

In a statement Friday, Aon said it saw profit growth in its Risk Solutions segment “driven primarily by strong organic revenue growth of 5%, (a) return on investments in data and analytics across the portfolio, and a 30 basis point favorable impact from foreign currency translation.”

Profit growth in the HR Solutions segment was attributed to “solid organic revenue growth of 4%” and a return on investments from health care exchanges and investment consulting, according to Aon's investor relations presentation posted online.

For the full year 2015, Aon reported $11.68 billion in revenue, down 3.0% from a year ago.

While Aon Risk Solutions saw a 5% decrease in revenue to $7.43 billion last year, Aon HR Solutions saw a 1% increase in revenue to $4.30 billion in 2015.

Aon reported $11.71 billion in commissions and fees for 2015, down 3.0% from the prior year.
