The London Stock Exchange has today welcomed GB Group (“GBG”), a leading global identity technology business enabling safe and rewarding digital lives, on the occasion of its move from AIM to the Main Market.
Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Chester, UK, GBG has been listed on AIM since 2010. As a leader in global identity and location technology, GBG has more than 30 years’ experience delivering identity verification, location intelligence and fraud prevention capabilities to make sure that genuine people everywhere can digitally prove who they are and where they live.
During this time, GBG has transformed into an international business of more than 1,100 team members with operations spanning the UK, Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific that deliver for over 20,000 customers every minute of the day, generating over £280 million in annual revenue.
“Today marks an exciting milestone in GBG’s journey in the public markets as we transition to the Main Market and push forward to drive accelerated growth. It’s a recognition of how far we’ve come - from our roots as a UK data business to a global technology leader in digital identity and fraud prevention - and a reflection of the growth opportunities that lie ahead.
I would like to thank our employees, customers, investors and our wider stakeholders for their continued belief in GBG’s purpose and potential. At GBG we are fuelled by a united purpose to enable safe and rewarding digital lives for genuine people, everywhere. As we scale, we’ll keep driving innovation and trust ensuring that the digital world works for everyone, no matter who they are, where they live or what their background.”
