PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated March 1, 2022)
AFFILIATED MANAGERS GROUP, INC.
$400,000,000
6.750% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2064
We are offering $400 million aggregate principal amount of 6.750% junior subordinated notes due 2064, which we refer to in this prospectus supplement as the notes.
The notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.750% per year. Interest will be payable quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of each year, beginning on June 30, 2024, subject to our right to defer interest payments as described below. The notes will be issued in registered form and in denominations of $25.00 and integral multiples of $25.00 in excess thereof. The notes will mature on March 30, 2064.
We may defer interest payments on the notes on one or more occasions for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods per deferral period as described in this prospectus supplement. Deferred interest payments will accrue additional interest at a rate equal to the interest rate then applicable to the notes, compounded quarterly, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
We may redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time at the redemption prices described under “Description of Notes—Optional Redemption,” “Description of Notes—Right to Redeem Upon a Tax Event” and “Description of Notes—Right to Redeem Upon a Rating Agency Event.”
The notes will be our unsecured, junior subordinated obligations and will rank junior and subordinate in right of payment to all our current and future senior indebtedness on the terms set forth in the Junior Subordinated Indenture (as defined herein) pursuant to which the notes will be issued. The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We intend to apply to list the notes on the New York Stock Exchange. If the application is approved, we expect trading in the notes to begin within 30 days after the date that the notes are first issued.
See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-6 of this prospectus supplement and the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an investment in the notes.
