At today's Annual General Meeting, EFG International's shareholders approved all proposals made by the Board of Directors, including the management report, the financial statements and the consolidated financial statements for the financial year 2017.

EFG International's shareholders also approved the payment of a dividend by way of a distribution out of reserves from capital contributions of CHF 0.25 per share (free of Swiss withholding tax). As previously announced, this is unchanged from the dividend distributed in the prior year. The ex-dividend date is 02 May 2018, the dividend record date is 03 May 2018, and the payment of the cash distribution is scheduled for 04 May 2018.

Furthermore, shareholders approved the renewal and increase of authorised share capital to a maximum of CHF 25,000,000 through the issuance of no more than 50,000,000 registered shares with a nominal value of CHF 0.50 each.
