Aon plc (NYSE:AON) is included among the 14 High Growth Dividend Paying Stocks to Invest in Now.
On February 27, Mizuho analyst Yaron Kinar upgraded Aon plc (NYSE:AON) to Outperform from Neutral. The firm set a price target of $397 on the stock, down slightly from $398. The update came as the firm adjusted ratings across the insurance property and casualty group following the recent sector selloff. The analyst said there is “low disruption threat” from AI for insurance brokers that focus on middle-market and larger clients. In a research note, he added that disintermediation risk is “geared to mass market personal lines and the smaller end of SME.”
On March 9, the company said it had completed the first known stablecoin insurance premium payment among major global brokers. The test was carried out through a proof of concept using US dollar-backed stablecoins. The move highlights Aon’s effort to modernize how funds move across the insurance value chain. It also reflects growing client demand, improving regulatory clarity, and the shift toward digital-first financial models. At the same time, the company pointed to the need for careful risk management as adoption expands across global markets.
The initiative gives Aon a way to assess how regulated stablecoin settlement could be used in insurance services over time, while keeping governance standards in place.
