Canaccord Genuity Group Inc. announces completion of delisting from the London 
                                Stock Exchange                                 

TORONTO, April 1, 2016 - Canaccord Genuity Group Inc. (the "Company") announces
today that pursuant to its announcement on March 1, 2016, the Company applied
to each of the UK Listing Authority and the London Stock Exchange for the
cancellation of its common shares listed on the standard listing segment of the
Official List of the UK Listing Authority and admitted to trading on London
Stock Exchange plc's main market for listed securities. The Company hereby
announces that such delisting took effect from 8:00 a.m. (London time) on April
1, 2016.

The Company will maintain its listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and,
on and after April 1, 2016, shareholders of the Company resident in the United
Kingdom will continue to be able to trade the Company's common shares through
the TSX.

CREST members holding the Company's CREST Depositary Interests ("CDIs") can
continue to do so and can settle trades that took place on the TSX by either
delivering the CDIs to another CREST participant or instructing Euroclear to
deliver the underlying shares, representing the CDIs, to a member participant
of the Canadian Depository for Securities ("CDS"). Investors requiring further
information regarding this process are encouraged to seek assistance from
Euroclear UK and Ireland (see website at https://my.euroclear.com).

Clients of CREST members wishing to hold shares in their own name on the
principal Canadian register and not to continue to hold them as CDIs through
the CREST member will need to advise the CREST member to instruct Euroclear to
deliver the shares to the CREST member's Canadian counterpart (CDS Participant)
and then arrange for that counterpart to re-materialise the securities onto the
principal register in Canada in Direct Registration System ("DRS") form.
