Frequently Asked Questions
Why is AIG filing an Amendment to its 2016 10-K?
AIG is filing this amendment because it will not be filing its definitive proxy statement within 120 days of the end of its fiscal year. This amendment provides the information required for Part III of Form 10-K, which includes details on directors, executive officers, corporate governance, executive compensation, and security ownership.
What is the proposed change in the Board of Directors?
AIG's Board has sixteen directors. For the 2017 Annual Meeting, thirteen directors are nominated for election. Two directors (George L. Miles, Jr. and Robert S. Miller) are retiring due to age guidelines, and John A. Paulson will not be renominated due to other time commitments.
How is executive compensation structured at AIG?
AIG's executive compensation structure is designed to be performance-driven and aligned with shareholder interests. It includes a balanced mix of base salary (25-35% of target total direct compensation), short-term incentives (STI), and long-term incentives (LTI). LTI represents at least 40% of target total direct compensation and is primarily in the form of Performance Share Units (PSUs) tied to performance metrics like Total Shareholder Return (TSR) over a three-year period.
What are the key features of AIG's executive compensation plans related to risk management?
AIG emphasizes risk management in its compensation practices. Key features include LTI awards based on TSR balanced by Option Adjusted Spreads (OAS) as a gating metric, a robust clawback policy covering at least 75% of target total direct compensation, and share ownership guidelines requiring executives to retain 50% of after-tax shares until ownership targets are met. Annual risk assessments of compensation plans are conducted to ensure they do not encourage excessive risk-taking.
