Description of Business


Primary SIC Code: 6411
(As filed with the SEC)  

Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "Gallagher" unless the context otherwise requires) are engaged in providing insurance brokerage and third-party claims settlement and administration services to entities in the U.S. and abroad. Gallagher believes that its major strength is its ability to deliver comprehensively structured insurance and risk management services to its clients. Gallagher's brokers, agents and administrators act as intermediaries between insurers and their customers and Gallagher does not assume underwriting risks. Since its founding in 1927, Gallagher has grown from a one-man agency to the world's fourth largest insurance broker based on revenues (according to Business Insurance magazine's July 17, 2007 edition) and the world's largest third-party property/casualty (P/C) claims administrator (according to Business Insurance magazine's February 12, 2007 edition).  ...
