(to Prospectus dated January 22, 2018)


Assurant, Inc.
$350,000,000 3.700% Senior Notes due 2030


We will pay interest on the 3.700% senior notes due 2030 (the "Notes") on February 22 and August 22 of each year, beginning on February 22, 2020.
The Notes will mature on February 22, 2030.
Prior to November 22, 2029 (the date that is three months prior to maturity (the "Par Call Date")), we may redeem the Notes, at any time in whole or
from time to time in part, at a "make-whole" premium plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. Commencing on or after the
Par Call Date, we may redeem the Notes, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of
the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. See "Description of the Notes--Optional Redemption."
The Notes will be our senior unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our other senior unsecured indebtedness from time to time
outstanding, except for certain immaterial indebtedness at one of our non-wholly owned subsidiaries, and senior in right of payment to all existing and
future subordinated indebtedness.
We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering (and available cash on hand, to the extent necessary) to fund the purchase of up to $100 million
aggregate principal amount of the $375.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of our 6.750% notes due 2034 (the "2034 Notes") pursuant to the
tender offer that we launched on the date hereof (the "Tender Offer"), to redeem all or a portion of the $300.0 million outstanding aggregate principal
amount of our Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2021 (the "2021 Notes") and to pay related premiums, fees and expenses. Any remaining net proceeds will
be used for general corporate purposes. See "Summary--Recent Developments" and "Use of Proceeds."

The Company
Assurant, Inc. ("Assurant") is a global provider of risk management solutions in the housing and lifestyle markets, protecting where people live
and the goods they buy. Assurant operates in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia Pacific through three operating segments: Global
Housing, Global Lifestyle and Global Preneed. Assurant partners with clients who are leaders in their industries to provide consumers a diverse range
of protection products and services. Through its Global Housing segment, Assurant provides lender-placed homeowners insurance; renters insurance
and related products (referred to as "Multifamily Housing"); manufactured housing and flood insurance and other specialty products (referred to as
"Specialty and Other"). Through its Global Lifestyle segment, Assurant provides mobile device protection products and related services and extended
service products and related services for consumer electronics and appliances (referred to as "Connected Living"); vehicle protection and related
services (referred to as "Global Automotive"); and credit and other insurance (referred to as "Global Financial Services and Other"). Through its
Global Preneed segment, Assurant provides pre-funded funeral insurance and annuity products.
Our Competitive Strengths
Our financial strength and core capabilities across our businesses create competitive advantages that we believe allow us to support our clients
and our profitable growth over the long term.
Our financial strength. We believe we have a strong balance sheet. As of June 30, 2019, we had $43.14 billion in total assets and our debt to
total capital was 25.9%. In addition, our Global Housing, Global Lifestyle and Global Preneed segments generate significant operating cash flows,
which provides us with the flexibility to make appropriate investments in strategic capabilities and enter into partnerships with our clients.
Client and consumer insights support product innovation. During our long business tenure, we have developed a comprehensive understanding
of our clients and the consumer markets we serve. We seek to leverage consumer insights, together with deep market knowledge and capabilities, to
anticipate and identify the specific needs of our clients and the consumers they serve. We intend to continue capitalizing on our client and consumer
insights to introduce new and innovative products and services and adapt those products and services to address emerging issues.
Value chain integration. We own or manage multiple pieces of the value chain, which enables us to create products and service offerings based
on specific client needs and provide a seamless experience for consumers. Offering end-to-end solutions allows us to adapt more quickly and
efficiently to client and consumer needs. Visibility across the value chain helps us collect and share insights to improve the consumer experience and
our offerings.

Our Strategy for Profitable Growth
Our vision is to be the premier provider of risk management solutions within the housing and lifestyle markets globally. To achieve this vision,
we recently underwent a multi-year transformation to position ourselves for long-term profitable growth by:
Growing our portfolio of market leading businesses. We leverage our competitive strengths to focus on niche businesses where we can
maintain or reach market-leading positions and achieve attractive returns. We periodically assess our business portfolio to ensure we align resources
with the best opportunities within the housing and lifestyle markets and, currently, we have identified Connected Living, Multifamily Housing and
Global Automotive as key businesses targeted for growth. We are focused on growing our businesses by continuing to invest in niche capabilities,
further expanding our offerings and diversifying our distribution channels.
Providing integrated risk management offerings. We provide an array of services that are complementary to our risk-based products. As we
adapt our business portfolio to respond to client and consumer needs, we expect that our mix of business will continue to evolve. We expect future
business mix shifts to further diversify our revenue and earnings.
Deploying our capital strategically. We deploy capital to invest in and grow our businesses, repurchase shares and pay dividends. Our approach
to mergers, acquisitions and other growth opportunities reflects our prudent and disciplined approach to capital management. We target new
businesses and capabilities that complement or support our business model, which is focused on expanding capabilities and distribution in targeted
growth businesses globally.
Recent Developments
Tender Offer
In connection with this offering, we commenced the Tender Offer to repurchase for cash up to a total of $100 million aggregate principal
amount (the "Tender Cap") of our outstanding 2034 Notes. The Tender Offer is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions including, but not
limited to, our having issued and sold, on terms satisfactory to us in our sole discretion, debt securities providing net proceeds at least equal to the
aggregate consideration necessary to purchase the principal amount of 2034 Notes, up to the Tender Cap, validly tendered and not validly withdrawn
prior to the early tender deadline. However, the closing of the offering of the notes described herein is not conditioned on the consummation of the
tender offer. The Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on September 12, 2019, unless extended or earlier
terminated (the "Tender Offer Deadline"). We have reserved the right, but are under no obligation, to increase or decrease the total principal amount
of the 2034 Notes to be purchased in the Tender Offer. We are permitted, subject to applicable law, to amend, extend, terminate or withdraw the
Tender Offer, and there can be no assurance that we will consummate the Tender Offer. We are also permitted to settle all or a portion of the Tender
Offer before the Tender Offer Deadline. There can be no assurance as to the principal amount of 2034 Notes that will be tendered or accepted for
purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer and, as a result, the aggregate principal amount of 2034 Notes tendered and accepted for purchase, and the cash
consideration paid pursuant to the Tender Offer, may differ from the assumed amounts described above. As of June 30, 2019, the aggregate principal
amount outstanding of our 2034 Notes was $375.0 million.
Nothing in this prospectus should be construed as an offer to purchase any of our outstanding 2034 Notes. The Tender Offer is being made only
upon the terms and conditions set forth in the related offer to purchase.
We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering (and available cash on hand, to the extent necessary) to fund the purchase of up to
$100 million aggregate principal amount of the 2034 Notes in the Tender Offer, to

redeem all or a portion of the $300.0 million outstanding principal amount of our 2021 Notes and to pay related premiums, fees and expenses. Any
remaining net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in the Notes involves risks. In considering whether you should invest in the Notes, you should consider all of the information we have
included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. In particular, you should carefully consider the risk
factors described below, as well as in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 under "Item 1A. Risk Factors." You should
also read all other information contained in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus before deciding
to invest in the Notes. If any of the risks actually occur, they may materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flow.
Additional risks and uncertainties that are not yet identified or that we think are immaterial may also materially harm our business, financial condition,
operating results or cash flow and could result in a complete or partial loss of your investment.
This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the incorporated documents also contain forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors,
including the risks faced by us as described in this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and
the accompanying prospectus. For more information see "Forward-Looking Information" in the accompanying prospectus and "Forward-Looking
Statements" in this prospectus supplement.
The Notes are effectively subordinated to any debt of Assurant that is secured.
The Notes are our unsecured obligations, and will be effectively subordinated to any of our future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of
the assets that secure that indebtedness. In addition, we may incur additional secured debt obligations in the future and the Notes will be effectively
subordinated to that debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing that debt. The effect of this subordination is that if Assurant is involved in a
bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding, or upon a default in payment on, or the acceleration of, any secured debt of
Assurant, the assets that secure such debt will be available to pay obligations on the Notes only after all such debt has been paid in full from the assets
securing such debt. Holders of the Notes will participate in any remaining assets ratably with all of the other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors of
Assurant. We may not have sufficient assets remaining to pay amounts due on any or all of the Notes then outstanding. See "Description of Notes."
We could incur significant additional indebtedness in the future, which could impair our ability to make payments under the Notes.
As of June 30, 2019, we had total outstanding indebtedness of approximately $2.01 billion and an additional $441 million of available borrowing
under our revolving credit facility, all of which would be unsecured indebtedness. See "Capitalization" for more information. In addition, the Notes and the
senior notes indenture governing the Notes generally do not contain restrictive covenants, such as a limitation on the payments of dividends, the incurrence
of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us. Thus, we may incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, which could affect
our ability to make payments under the Notes.
Holders of the Notes have only limited rights of acceleration.
Holders of the Notes may accelerate payment of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes only upon the occurrence and
continuation of an event of default. An event of default under the Notes is generally limited to payment defaults, breaches of specific covenants and
specific events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization relating to us.

There is no established trading market for the Notes. We cannot assure you that an active market for the Notes will develop or be sustained or that
holders of the Notes will be able to sell their Notes at favorable prices or at all. Although the underwriters have indicated to us that they intend to make a
market for the Notes, as permitted by applicable laws and regulations, they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any such market-making at any
time without notice. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or trading markets for, the Notes. We do not intend to list the Notes on
any securities exchange or include them on any automated quotation system. The liquidity of any market for the Notes will depend upon various factors,
including:


·
the number of holders of the Notes;


·
the interest of securities dealers in making a market for the Notes;


·
the overall market for investment grade securities;


·
our financial performance and prospects; and


·
the prospects for companies in our industry generally.
In addition, the liquidity of the trading market for the Notes, and the market price quoted for the Notes, may be adversely affected by changes in the
overall market for fixed income securities generally. As a result, an active trading market may not develop for the Notes. If no active trading market
develops, you may not be able to resell your Notes at a price that reflects accrued and unpaid interest, if at all.
