Aon will expand its Aon Client Treaty (ACT) facility from January 1, 2027, giving eligible insurance and facultative reinsurance placements access to a larger pre-arranged co-insurance share. The company announced the renewal on November 4, while Aon said the facility will cover eligible business placed through its Global Broking Centre and facultative reinsurance arranged by Reinsurance Solutions.

Aon stock traded at 302.55 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 17:30 CET on Thursday, November 12, 2026.

More capacity for complex risks

ACT will cover 35 percent of eligible placements, up from 28.5 percent for 2026. QBE leads the facility, which is backed by Lloyd's syndicates, and clients can access the capacity on the same terms and pricing as the lead placement, subject to agreement and eligibility requirements.

The ACT Client Dividend of 1.5 percent can apply to the larger share where local law, regulation and the relevant conditions permit. The expansion is particularly relevant to facultative reinsurance for large or complex individual risks.

Execution matters as pricing softens

Insurance Business links the larger follow facility to a softer insurance market. Its analysis says faster placement and predictable capacity may support client retention when rate increases contribute less to broker growth, while the 35 percent pre-agreed share heightens the importance of Aon's conflicts framework and the terms available to clients.

For investors, the facility is an operating expansion rather than a change to earnings guidance. Its eventual contribution will depend on eligible business, client participation and the execution of placements.
