Trading Update

GBGI Limited (AIM: GBGI), a leading integrated provider of international benefits insurance, today issues the following trading update in advance of its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2018 ("H1 2018").

The Group saw continued growth in the business across its diversified product and regional footprint during H1 2018, recording year over year growth (adjusted for the Group's exit from the Angolan market in 2017) in gross written premium ("GWP") as compared to the same period in CY 2017.

The Group anticipates that GWP and underlying net income (adjusted for certain one-off non-recurring expenses) for the full 12 months to 31 December 2018 ("CY 2018") will be broadly in line with initial expectations.

The non-recurring, one-off expenses incurred in 2018 are estimated to be approximately USD $2.8 million including a USD $2.0 million investment in the Group's distribution channels.

Reporting dates

GBGI will be announcing its interim results for H1 2018 in September 2018.
