DISPOSAL OF INVESTMENT IN BOX INNOVATION GROUP LIMITED COMPLETED

 

HAMILTON, Bermuda - Catlin Group Limited ('CGL'; London Stock Exchange), the international specialty property/casualty insurer and reinsurer, announces that its subsidiary, Catlin Insurance Company Ltd. ('CICL'), has completed the sale of its investment in Box Innovation Group Limited ('BIGL', trading as 'insurethebox') to Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance Company of Europe Limited ('Aioi').

 

Under the sale agreement announced on 22 December 2014, Aioi has acquired shares from CICL as well as other shareholders, and as a result of the transaction Aioi now owns 75.01% of BIGL.

 

CICL has received cash proceeds of approximately £85 million from the sale. Following the completion of the sale, the Catlin Board of Directors has declared a special dividend of 11.7pence per share, payable on 24 April 2015 to shareholders of record at close of business on 10 April 2015.

Catlin was advised on the transaction by J.P. Morgan Cazenove.
