That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.37% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Marsh-and-McLennan Companies shareholders could enjoy a 1.37% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Marsh-and-McLennan Companies's case, that would currently equate to about $2.305 per share.
While Marsh-and-McLennan Companies's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Marsh-and-McLennan Companies may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Marsh-and-McLennan Companies shares which in turn could have impacted Marsh-and-McLennan Companies's share price.
