ITEM 9.  REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.

 

On February 25, 2004, Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it had sold an additional $50 million of mandatory convertible securities (the “PRIDES”), which, combined with the previously announced sale of $250 million of PRIDES, resulted in an aggregate PRIDES placement of $300 million.  As previously announced, the PRIDES were priced at $1,000 per unit, with an effective coupon of 6.65 percent and a conversion premium of 53%.

 

The PRIDES have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. Any offer of the PRIDES was made only by means of the private offering memorandum.

 

A copy of the press release announcing the additional PRIDES closing is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein. By this filing, the Company is not establishing the practice of filing all press releases in the future and may discontinue such filings at any time.
