Patrick Gallagher Jr., chairman and CEO of Arthur J. Gallagher & Co., addressed investors during a quarterly meeting on September 23, 2026, discussing the company’s business strategies, market conditions, and financial outlook. He noted that property insurance market conditions are easing as capacity returns, while casualty lines remain firmer due to continued pressure on loss costs and underwriting margins. He cited renewal premium changes across the company’s property and casualty brokerage businesses in July and August, including property lines down 6%, casualty lines up 5% overall, professional lines up 2%, personal lines up 3%, and workers compensation up 2%. Gallagher also highlighted the company’s growth trajectory, stating that since 2020 it has grown organically by over $3 billion and acquired more than $6 billion of annualized revenue, while still touching less than 5% of the global insurance market. He said this provides a long runway for winning new business organically and adding merger partners. He added that the company’s EVA act margins have improved by nearly 800 basis points since January 2020, with continued opportunities for improvement. He expressed confidence in the company’s position, citing its people, proven strategy, and opportunities ahead, and said he looked forward to discussing third quarter results on the next earnings call.
