It was announced in August that Gallagher had reached an agreement to acquire all of the treaty operations of Willis Re for an initial gross consideration of $3.25 billion.

In November, the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) ended an investigation and cleared the planned acquisition, which has since completed.

Gallagher has since then also purchased Utah-based Real Estate Insurance Solutions for an undisclosed sum.
