Fitch gives Gallagher notes at BBB

Fitch Ratings said it gave BBB issue-level ratings to new senior unsecured notes issued by Arthur J. Gallagher & Co.

The agency reviewed AJG’s BBB ratings on Nov. 4 and took no action. “The new debt issuance is not expected to effect Fitch's view on gross leverage projected in the next few years,” Fitch said in a press release.

The proceeds are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions. In December, AJG reported its planned acquisition of BCHR Holdings LP (Buck) for about $585 million. The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2023.

The outlook is positive.
