Filed August 2, 2023For Securities:AIG

Summary

American International Group, Inc. (AIG) reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2023. The company demonstrated a mixed performance, with a notable increase in net investment income, driven by higher interest rates and strategic deployment of assets. However, the General Insurance segment experienced a decrease in underwriting income due to higher catastrophe losses and lower favorable prior year reserve development, partially offset by premium growth and improved accident year loss ratios. Life and Retirement segment showed improved adjusted pre-tax income, driven by higher net investment spread income and a robust fixed annuity market, although variable annuity net outflows increased due to market volatility and higher surrender rates. The company also continued its strategic divestitures, completing the sale of Crop Risk Services and announcing the sale of Validus Re. AIG's financial position remains solid, with a significant increase in total assets and shareholders' equity, supported by ongoing capital management actions including share repurchases and dividends.
