Aon research: The 2025 Global Benefits Trends Study
This Aon research aimed to understand the global benefits trends associated with multinationals around the world and to gather insights about the roles, responsibilities and evolving priorities of global benefits professionals in multinational companies.
Key findings
- Ensuring efficient cost management is the top strategic priority across all segments, regions and most industries, rising from number three globally last year.
- Ensuring that employee benefits are highly valued, which did not appear in the top four in 2024, came in at number three this year. For “leading companies”, this is the number one strategic priority.
- Rolling out global minimum standards ranked number four (not ranked in 2024), demonstrating that the commitment that multinationals indicated in the 2024 survey (i.e. to almost double the prevalence of minimum standards by 2026) is real.
