October 7, 2019 - Sagicor Financial Corporation Limited ("Sagicor") is pleased to announce that, on September 30, 2019, Sagicor Life Inc. ("SLI"), its wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into agreements to acquire the traditional insurance portfolios (including the assumption of liabilities under the insurance policies and the acquisition of reinsurance contracts and investment assets (generally Trinidad sovereign debt) to support those liabilities) of both Colonial Life Insurance Company (Trinidad) Limited ("CLICO") and British American Insurance Company (Trinidad) Limited ("BAT"). In addition, contracts with respect to CLICO's pension fund administration, management and investment services operations (as well as supporting investment assets) will be acquired and assumed by SLI.

The insurance policies assumed will consist of a combination of ordinary long-term life insurance policies, including universal life, whole life and term life policies and annuities, plus group life, health and creditor insurance policies in effect as at closing. Certain pension-related liabilities of CLICO will also be assumed at closing.
