Go Digit General Insurance Limited (Digit Insurance) is an Indian digital general insurance subsidiary of Fairfax’s 49%-owned Go Digit Infoworks Services Private Limited focused on selling general insurance products digitally. The company agreed to raise approximately $200 million through new equity issuances, valuing Digit Insurance at about $3.5 billion. The transactions are subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approval and were expected to close in the third quarter of 2021. The fundraise and regulatory changes around foreign ownership are material to Fairfax’s accounting treatment of its investment in Digit. Fairfax disclosed that, since Digit’s 2017 founding, it has invested about $154 million and currently carries the investment at $532 million on its balance sheet. Upon closing of the new equity issuances and receipt of required approvals, Fairfax projects the Digit investment’s aggregate market value to be approximately $2.3 billion, producing substantial unrealized gains on its holdings.
