Brown & Brown Q2: Softening Insurance Rates Continue

I reiterate a Strong Buy rating on Brown & Brown, Inc., setting a fair value of $118 per share due to resilient growth prospects. The Accession Risk Management Group acquisition, though pricey, is strategically sound and expected to deliver revenue and cost synergies. Despite near-term headwinds from softening insurance pricing, ongoing cost-saving initiatives and tech investments support long-term BRO margin expansion.
