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.
