Summary
American International Group, Inc. (AIG) reported a strong third quarter of 2022, with net income attributable to AIG common shareholders increasing significantly to $2.7 billion, or $3.50 per diluted share, compared to $1.7 billion, or $1.92 per diluted share, in the prior year's third quarter. This robust performance was largely driven by a substantial increase in net realized gains, particularly from derivative and hedge activities and favorable movements related to Fortitude Re funds withheld embedded derivatives, which more than offset a decline in net investment income across the company's segments. The General Insurance segment demonstrated improved underwriting results, with a combined ratio of 97.3%, benefiting from favorable prior year reserve development and disciplined underwriting. The Life and Retirement segment saw a decline in adjusted pre-tax income, primarily due to lower net investment income and the impact of actuarial assumption updates, though the rising interest rate environment presents opportunities for fixed annuity sales. The company also successfully completed the initial public offering (IPO) of Corebridge Financial, Inc., its life and retirement business, raising approximately $1.7 billion and strengthening AIG's capital position.
