Arthur J. Gallagher completes acquisition of AssuredPartners

Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. (NYSE: AJG) announced the completion of its previously disclosed acquisition of AssuredPartners on August 18, 2025.

AssuredPartners operates as an insurance broker with capabilities across commercial property/casualty, specialty, employee benefits and personal lines. The company serves commercial, public entity and individual customers through offices in the U.S., U.K. and Ireland.

"I am extremely excited to welcome our new colleagues to Gallagher," said J. Patrick Gallagher Jr., Chairman and CEO. "Together, we will further build upon our client-centric, entrepreneurial cultures and utilize our product and industry expertise, extensive data, innovative analytical tools, outstanding service, and broad product offerings to provide our clients with the very best insurance and risk management solutions."

Gallagher funded the transaction using proceeds from previously disclosed equity and debt financing. The company expects the acquisition to provide double-digit adjusted earnings per share accretion, including synergies.

The acquisition aims to expand Gallagher's retail middle-market property/casualty and employee benefits operations across the U.S. and strengthen capabilities in transportation, energy, healthcare, government contractors and public entity sectors. The transaction also adds operations in the U.K. and Ireland to Gallagher's portfolio.

In connection with the closing, Gallagher's compensation committee approved $316.15 million in equity awards for 572 former AssuredPartners employees who joined Gallagher. The awards will be issued in Gallagher common stock, with portions vesting immediately and remaining amounts vesting over five years on anniversary dates.
