Barclays Loweres PT on Aon plc Stock to $401, Maintains Overweight Rating

Aon plc (NYSE:AON) is one of the 12 Best Stocks to Invest in for Good Returns. On July 7, Barclays lowered the price target of Aon plc (NYSE:AON) from $415 to $401, maintaining its Overweight rating on the stock.

Barclays analyst Alex Scott has kept his rating while reducing the price target on AON ahead of the Q2 2025 earnings. The analyst believes that Aon plc remains more cautious on property and casualty carriers, pointing out that the underwriting margins face pressure from unfavourable mix shifts and softening rates.

Scott is more constructive on reinsurers due to “idiosyncratic tailwinds” and capital return potential in the second half of 2025. During Q1, the company saw 4% organic revenue growth in the reinsurance segment. The company expects to achieve its 2025 full-year guidance, expecting mid-single-digit or greater organic revenue growth and double-digit FCF growth.

Aon plc (NYSE:AON) is a global professional services firm that operates through two segments, including Risk Capital and Human Capital.
