Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (AMG) announced on December 11, 2025, the successful completion of a $425 milliona issuance of 5.500% Senior Notes due 2036.

These notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the company, maturing on February 15, 2036, with semi-annual interest payments. The offering was conducted under a shelf registration statement and was supported by an underwriting agreement with BofA Securities, Citigroup Global Markets, and Wells Fargo Securities.
