Summary

Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (AMG) filed an 8-K on November 5, 2013, primarily to report its financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. The core of this filing is an earnings press release (Exhibit 99.1) that provides detailed financial performance data for the period.
