Subject: AIG collateral posting in case of a downgrade--based on their Aug 6 10-Q
Date: 09/12/2008 04:20 PM

A significant portion of AIGFP’s guaranteed investment agreements (GIAs) and financial


derivative transactions include provisions that require AIGFP, upon a downgrade of AIG’s
long-term debt ratings, to post collateral or, with the consent of the counterparties, assign or
repay its positions or arrange a substitute guarantee of its obligations by an obligor with
higher debt ratings.

It is estimated that, as of the close of business on July 31, 2008, based on AIGFP’s


outstanding municipal GIAs and financial derivative transactions at that date, a
downgrade of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings to ‘A1’ by Moody’s Investors Service
(Moody’s) and ‘A+’ by Standard & Poor’s, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies,
Inc. (S&P), would permit counterparties to make additional calls for up to
approximately $13.3 billion of collateral, while a downgrade to ‘A2’ by Moody’s and ‘A’
by S&P would permit counterparties to call for approximately $1.2 billion of additional
collateral. If either of Moody’s or S&P downgraded AIG’s ratings to ‘A1’ or ‘A+’,
respectively, the estimated collateral call would be for up to approximately $10.5 billion,
while a downgrade to ‘A2’ or ‘A’, respectively, by either of the two rating agencies
would permit counterparties to call for up to approximately $1.1 billion of additional
collateral.

Furthermore, a downgrade of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings to ‘A1’ by Moody’s


or to the same levels by both rating agencies would permit either AIG or the
counterparties to elect early termination of contracts resulting in payments of up to
approximately $4.6 billion, while a downgrade to ‘A2’ by Moody’s and ‘A’ by S&P
would permit either AIG or the counterparties to elect early termination of additional
contracts resulting in additional payments of up to approximately $800 million. AIGFP
believes that it is unlikely that certain of these counterparties would exercise their rights to
elect termination of their contracts given the substantial economic benefit that such
counterparties would forfeit upon termination.

The actual amount of collateral that AIGFP would be required to post to counterparties in the
event of such downgrades, or the aggregate amount of payments that AIG could be required
to make, depends on market conditions, the fair value of outstanding affected transactions
and other factors prevailing at the time of the downgrade. Additional obligations to post
collateral or the costs of assignment, repayment or alternative credit support would increase
the demands on AIG’s liquidity. Further downgrades could result in requirements for
substantial additional collateral, which could have a material adverse effect on AIG’s
liquidity.

AIG May Announce Its Turnaround Plan Before Sept. 25 (Update2)

By Hugh Son and Shannon D. Harrington

Sept. 12 (Bloomberg) -- American International Group Inc., the largest U.S. insurer, may
accelerate plans to raise capital or sell assets after the shares plunged 42 percent this week,
said a person familiar with the company.

Chief Executive Officer Robert Willumstad may announce the turnaround plan before his
Sept. 25 deadline said the person, who declined to be named because the New York-based
insurer hasn't made an official statement. AIG may be able to raise $20 billion selling assets
including its consumer finance, reinsurance and plane-leasing units, according to analysts at
Citigroup Inc.

AIG shares slumped and the cost of insuring its debt rose to a record today on concern that
the company may be the next big U.S. financial firm after Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. to
run short of capital. AIG spokesman Joe Norton declined to comment on the reorganization
plans.

``It's a carbon-copy story for a lot of these guys that need capital,'' said Robert Bolton,
managing director for trading at Mendon Capital Advisors Corp. in Rochester, New York.
``It's unprecedented that two storied franchises, Bear Stearns and Lehman, have taken on the
type of water they have, and now there are fears about another titan, AIG.''

AIG dropped $4.61, or 26 percent, to $12.94 at 3:29 p.m. in New York Stock Exchange
composite trading. The price of credit- default swaps, used as hedges against losses on bad
debt, approached distressed levels and traded higher than those for Lehman, the securities
firm that's fighting for survival.

Raising Capital

The insurer raised $20.3 billion in May by selling debt and equity, diluting the holdings of
long-time investors. It's ``very hard to predict'' if AIG will need more capital, Willumstad
said Aug. 7.

``As distressed as they are, raising new capital could be extremely hard,'' said Tim Backshall,
chief strategist at Credit Derivatives Research LLC in Walnut Creek, California, today in an
e-mail.

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000016


The insurer disclosed in an Aug. 6 filing that a ratings cut may have ``a material adverse
effect on AIG's liquidity.'' The company was forced to put up $16.5 billion in collateral
through July 31 for investors who bought protection from AIG through credit-default swaps.

The firm reported about $25 billion in writedowns in three previous quarters on the swaps.
The contracts backed $441 billion of assets as of June 30, including $57.8 billion in securities
tied to subprime mortgages.

Credit-Default Swaps

Most of the valuation declines on the swaps will reverse and AIG may have to pay $8.5
billion on the contracts in a worst-case scenario, the company said Aug. 7.

American General Finance, AIG's consumer lender, could fetch more than $6 billion if the
unit sold for twice its book value. AIG Investments could sell for more than $3 billion if it
sold for 2.5 percent of clients' assets under management. The stake in reinsurer Transatlantic
Holdings Inc. is worth about $2.4 billion, based on the Sept. 10 share price.

Bank of America Corp. analyst Alain Karaoglan said Willumstad should reconsider the
decision to keep its aircraft- leasing unit, which could sell for $7 billion to $14 billion.

Just let me know.

FYI, I looked at AIG's Q2 earnings presentation. They have taken cumulative MTM
writedowns of $25 billion on super senior ABS CDOs ($80 billion notional). They
have posted $16.5 billion of collateral. Their CSAs do have rating-based triggers for
collateral. For them as for others, MTM writedowns will become realized losses as
the CDOs liquidate, which (market-wide) is happening gradually.

AIG Meeting Notes
September 12, 2008

AIG – Jacob Frenkel (Vice Chairman), Steve Bensinger (CFO), David Herzog (SVP
& Comptroller), Robert Gender (VP & Treasurer), Alan Pryor (EVP – Financial
Services Division)
FRBNY – Trish Mosser, Jim Mahoney, Bill Dudley

AIG is facing serious liquidity issues that threaten its survival viability.

There are potential credit rating agency downgrades.  Moody’s Committee meets on
Monday September 15 (currently rated AA3, downgraded at least one notch)…  S&P
already has AIG on negative watch (as of today)…  Fitch already has AIG on
negative watch.

Rating triggers:
    GICs are issued out of AIG-Financial Products (AIG-FP), insured by the holding
company.
downgrade by 1 rating agency leads to $10B in collateral calls, plus an additional
$4B-$5B in portfolio obligations that are puttable if downgraded (total of $15B in
liquidity needs)
downgrade by 2 rating agencies – additional $3B in liquidity needs
If downgraded, they must post half of the additional collateral within 2 days, and
the other half in 10 days.   

Markets are also punishing AIG.  Stock prices are off about 40% today, and CDS is
traded at about 1400 bp (up from about 10 bp eighteen months ago).

Some banks are already pulling away; some banks are even turning down AIG in the
secured (repo) borrowing markets

AIG is having problems rolling its commercial paper (CP).  $2.5B in CP matured
today, but they were able to roll only $1.1B, the remaining $1.4B was funded out of
the parent. 
AIG has a total of about $15B in CP, which has backstop (backup lines
of credit) from a consortium of banks; AIG may have to draw on lines
on Monday, which is a material event and so will become publicly
known and have negative implications.
AIG also has ABCP facilities of about $5B, and these have no backup
lines

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000024


AIG’s repo book is all investment grade, mostly structured mortgage products….
Things that have, in the past, been used as repo collateral... but the combination of
being perceived as a weak counterparty and risky, illiquid collateral is resulting in
counterparties stepping away….

Securities lending (mostly out of the insurance companies) – about $69B in liabilities,
and the holding company has only enough cash to fund ½ of that, if the sec lending
counterparties turn away from the AIG name.

Mobility of liquidity – most cash within the organization is ‘trapped’ in regulated


entities and is not freely transferable to AIG holding company or AIG Financial
Products (the derivatives and trading sub) for its liquidity needs.
    Today, the holding company started with $9B in liquidity, used $1.4 for CP, but
was able to upstream about $1.4B in ‘dividends’ from subs up to holding company,
but little ability, in general, to use subs to upstream liquidity to holding co or its non-
regulated subs.

Bottom line:  Treasurer estimates that parent and AIG FS sub have 5-10 days before
they are out of liquidity.

Plans to address liquidity stress?  AIG is aggressively pursuing:


Asset sales – but many viable assets to sell have distressed and illiquid markets
into which to sell
Equity issuance – not viable at this time – 3 months ago, AIG raised $20B in
capital.  It is all gone.
Holding company has about $12B in ‘Fed-eligible’ assets (that is, PDCF
collateral… note, however, this does not include the restriction on assets that have
‘available prices’)
The various insurance subs have very large quantity of high quality assets, but the
restrictions on pledging those are very unclear.

Unwinding in event of bankruptcy is likely to be very messy, because derivatives


book is large and complex $2.7 Trillion, largely of very long-term structure products.
$1 Trillion is concentrated in 12 large counterparties.  Book is very far from balanced,
although they could not give a MTM value.  One of the challenges they are already
facing is very aggressive marks from counterparties and strategic unwinding of “in
the money” positions, and this will likely accelerate in coming days adding to the cash
drain.  Their super senior CDO book is about $80 bn and at present they have
approximately $19 billion in collateral posted against it.

Access to Fed facilities:


They have what they describe as a very small thrift, and so limited ability to borrow
from DW.   Recently they drew up a plan to become a primary dealer over a 6-12
month period, but obviously do not have the time to implement that plan.  They
explicitly asked about how to obtain an IPC 13-3 loan.  They are very willing to open
their books to us, and give us a better sense of their risk profile, the complexity of
their book and detailed liquidity profile as soon as possible (ie this weekend.)

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000027
Restricted FR

Securities lending (mostly out of the insurance companies) – about $69B in liabilities,
and the holding company has only enough cash to fund ½ of that, if the sec
lending counterparties turn away from the AIG name.

Mobility of liquidity – most cash within the organization is ‘trapped’ in regulated entities
and is not freely transferable to AIG holding company or AIG Financial Products
(the derivatives and trading sub) for its liquidity needs.
Today, the holding company started with $9B in liquidity, used $1.4 for CP, but
was able to upstream about $1.4B in ‘dividends’ from subs up to holding
company, but little ability, in general, to use subs to upstream liquidity to holding
co or its non-regulated subs.

Bottom line: Treasurer estimates that parent and AIG FS sub have 5-10 days before they
are out of liquidity.

Plans to address liquidity stress? AIG is aggressively pursuing:


- Asset sales – but many viable assets to sell have distressed and illiquid
markets into which to sell
- Equity issuance – not viable at this time – 3 months ago, AIG raised $20B in
capital. It is all gone.
- Holding company has about $12B in ‘Fed-eligible’ assets (that is, PDCF
collateral… note, however, this does not include the restriction on assets that
have ‘available prices’)
- The various insurance subs have very large quantity of high quality assets, but
the restrictions on pledging those are very unclear.

Unwinding in event of bankruptcy is likely to be very messy, because derivatives book is


large and complex $2.7 Trillion, largely of very long-term structure products. $1
Trillion is concentrated in 12 large counterparties. Book is very far from
balanced, although they could not give a MTM value. One of the challenges they
are already facing is very aggressive marks from counterparties and strategic
unwinding of “in the money” positions, and this will likely accelerate in coming
days adding to the cash drain. Their super senior CDO book is about $80 bn and
at present they have approximately $19 billion in collateral posted against it.

Access to Fed facilities:


They have what they describe as a very small thrift, and so limited ability to borrow from
DW. Recently they drew up a plan to become a primary dealer over a 6-12
month period, but obviously do not have the time to implement that plan. They
explicitly asked about how to obtain an IPC 13-3 loan. They are very willing to
open their books to us, and give us a better sense of their risk profile, the
complexity of their book and detailed liquidity profile as soon as possible (ie this
weekend.)

Jon and Mike,

Given how dire the situation with AIG is, Jim and I thought we should probably
follow up to get more information on their risk profile, etc. sometime tomorrow.  
They will make available to us the appropriate people.   Sorry to wreck your
weekend, but what times would work for you??  (Jim and I have given up --- we

What can I do to help at this point.  I called Brian an hour ago and he was on a

Also, do you think he meant to send this to Richard Perl, or did he just perhaps
mistype "perli"?  I was thinking of sending it to Robero.

Not a lot new from Trish's note.  Some more details on counterparties and
derivatives.  They expect a ratings downgrade early next week, they plan to draw on
their backup lines which will give them enough liquidity to get them to the 26th or
29th.  They expect if counterparties begin to pull away, it will happen quickly and
they could be run out of liquidity in a couple of days.  Counterparties are pulling
away and they can't add borrowing capacity.

Trapped liquidity is a big issue.  They have spoken with NY State insurance
commissioner about ways to get money out of insurance sub.  They are
investigating, but cash is there to protect policy holders.  Probably only feasible if
Fed lends to isnurance sub and they can move it to the HC (can't repo).  They have
some capacity to move cash out, but only about $3 billion or so, but subs don't have
cash and are having trouble selling assets.

$68 billion in Sec Lending business - worry is about rolling it over.  Business is in the
insurance sub referenced above.  They can't sustain a large amount of withdrawals. 

There isn't really a contingency plan.  Pvt equity was discussed (due dil starting
tomorrow), sale of businesses, etc. - would need bridge financing.

They are a large issuer of annuities that can be put back.  Could be as much as over
$100 billion.

They have ops overseas that could be afected - UK and Japan, but they also own
banks in Poland, Hong Kong, and other locations.

Derivatives book is huge, they sponsor some ETFs (commodities) and they have a lot
of counterparties.  Most worried about behavior of counterparties and whether there
could be an acceleration of payments without netting.  Concentration is in 12 major
internationally active banks that are the most active in the derivative market.

They are a member of CLS but a significant amount of their business is not done
through CLS.

FRBNY is getting the detailed reports.

Brian Madigan was on the call as well.

I'm sure Brian meant to send this to you and not Richard Perl.

What should we do?  If AIG doesn't have collateral they can pledge to us, I just
don't think we can lend.  It seems like it would have to be the Treasury.  If we think
the entity is insolvent, can you think of anyway to make the failure more orderly?

Subject: Update on AIG
We met with senior executives at AIG to discuss both their liquidity and
risk exposure situation.   These included the CEO, CFO, General Counsel,
Treasurer and many others.  Below are the important highlights ... Scott
Alvarez, Deborah Bailey, Jim Clouse, Mike Gibson and Brian Madigan from the
BoG also participated.

The key takeaway is that they are potentially facing a severe run on their
liquidity over the course of the next several (approx. 10) days if they are
downgraded by Moodys and S&P early next week.   They anticipate downgrades
could happen as early as Monday.    Their risk exposures are concentrated
among the 12 largest international banks (both U.S. and European) across a
wide array of product types (bank lines, derivatives, securities lending,
etc.)  meaning their could be significant counterparty losses to those
firms in the event of AIG's failure.   They estimate that they might have
to pay out $18.6B across the firm over the course of next week if they were
downgraded.

I.  Liquidity

Breakdown of the $18.6B is:


Failed rolls on ABCP: $4.7B
Collateral posting on Muni GICs: $6B
Collateral posting on Structured Lease GICs: $3B
Collateral posting in derivatives contracts: $5B

As of close of business today, they have $8B in cash at the holding


company.  They are experiencing significant difficulties in rolling their
programs and have used some of their holding company cash to pay down the
rolls.    Their  CP lines are backstopped by banks and if they were to draw
down, this would mean banks have to fund $15B in credit.  They expressed
concern that banks might object to fund and take legal recourse to prevent
from doing so;  or more likely they would restrict credit on other
exposures (e.g., trading lines).  They also have $4.7B in ABCP programs
which are not backstopped.   They have enough liquidity to last until Sept.
26th.

Outside of the holding co., the insurance subs have about $68B in
securities lending liabilities to the 12 largest firms.   Program is
managed by the holding company (AIG Financial Products).  In principle they
could use these assets for repo: in practice they do not believe that repo
of assets is viable b/c the assets are mostly non-agency mortgages and not
very desirable.    They have lending facilities from the insurance
subsidiary to the holding company of $4.9B.  They discussed with NYSID
Superintendent Dinallo whether they could free up liquidity in excess of
the $4.9B to the holding co.  Some of the subs have large muni and
corporate portfolios that would have to be sold to free up liquidity,
meaning not all have excess liquidity.   They suggested that Dinallo was
amenable to freeing up more liquidity.

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000053


They have so far made about $1B in collateral postings on derivatives over
the past week; 1 bank has also cut down their overdraft lines limiting
their ability to move funds across legal entities.

They have no concrete plans to generate near-term liquidity and longer-term


plans in their early stages.    These longer term plans include a private
equity capital raise coupled with asset sales.   Interested parties would
be performing due diligence starting tomorrow and into sunday.

They are also large issuers of annuities and have $11B of contingent
exposure in their domestic retirement services business.  These are retail
but run by large sponsors who could encourage accounts to put back the
annuities in exchange for cash if they lose confidence in AIG.    These
sponsors are U.S. banks who have exposure elsewhere.    This could be on
top of the $18B payout above.    They have similar exposures in Japan but
could not quantify the size.

They also have a sterling-denominated money market account of $10B and an


exchange traded fund in commodities with $3B (run by a sponsor) in
liquidity that could also face a run if there is a loss of confidence

II.  Risk Exposure

$2.7 trillion in notional derivatives exposure across all books across 12


major dealers.

Commodities: index book of $25B; swaps on futures contracts where they are
long futures contracts to hedge; post variation margin of approx. $2B to
NYMEX; also trade options on indices both plain vanilla and structured.
Also have positions in precious and industrial metals.

CDS:  Mostly ABS CDO (not pay as you go, but accelerate at default); $42B
High Grade; $60B Mezz.; $20B in CMBS CDOs.  Underlying consists mostly of
RMBS 2005 vintage across ratings.    Material net notionals of $305B in
mortgage and corporate exposures combined.   Investment Grade Corp.
arbitrage another $55B; $1.5trillion of exposure to European banks through
balance sheet CDOs.

IR derivatives: USD/EUR/Yen denominated.  $3B-$4B in size.  Very little


negative convexity; long long-dated volatility, short short-dated
volatility; Long american exercise, short european exercise.

FX: they have prime brokerage of $30B in volumes and they clear through
CLS.

International Leasing Corp; commercial aircraft leasing to over 140


airlines of $50B; rolling CP has been difficult.

Also have smaller consumer finance companies and banks across the world
......

Jim, Trish, Paul, Cathy: if I've missed something or mischaracterized


something, let us know.

Brian-

Attached is the promised memo.  I found very little on the derivatives activities of
AIG, which is frustrating.  They don't seem to say much in the 10-Ks/10-Qs.  I will
check again in the am.

Thanks,

Staff has been in contact with AIG (Jacob)  this morning.  AIG sees this as a liquidity
event and has investment bankers looking at assets this weekend but will not sell off
core assets and is not seeking a major equity injection or strategic partner.  they
face the possibility of a multi-grade downgrade ffrom Moody's on Monday, which
would probably be the death knell.  They were vague as to what they expected from
us except that it  sounded like an open ended liquidity facility.  (b) (5)
  AIG will get back to us later this morning with a more

AIG is an emerging issue and I will update you as events arise but I get a sense if
things get bad this issue could devolve quickly. Here too you need to get a sense of
exposure/risk to AIG.

update: brief conversation with Jacob.  Tol dhim we were "very reluctant" to open
up another 13-3 facility for an entity not even an investment bank.  And that the
market thought it was not only a liquidity problem but also a capital problem.  He
gave me the bridge to asset sales speech and then said he would get willumsted
and call me back.  I'm waiting.

to A+G with a negative outlook.  I'm going to drop the stuff off on my way out.

Re: AIG's Ins Companies

Downgraded to what and why?  Moody's downgraded a bunch of AIG subs because
they had guarantees from the holding company and the holding company got
downgraded.

Strange conversation.  Willumsted (sp?) and Frenkel didn't seem to be aware of the
captial raise/ asset sale plan Kevin told Ben about, and of course I didn't say
anything.  I told them we were "very reluctant" to open up our discount window to
them when it wasn't clear they had a good plan for getting enough capital into the
company and were depending on asset sales over along period.  I said we also were
aware that we would begiving a whole new class or classes of borrowers under our
discount window umbrella.  They said they had prospects for 10 b of immediate
private equity and maybe about 10 b of new liquidity from convincing dinallo to
allow them to do some sec lending from the insurance companies to the HC. they
needed 20 from us to buy time to sell selected assets, like interests in their
insurance companies.   I told them to make plans as if we wouldn't be there for
them, but also to keep in touch.  they seemed to think they had a week or so--
though the next  few days would be tough.   (b) (5)

Attached is a rough draft of the first part of our memo.  I was not sure where to
stop, so I put in some discussion of the current problems (which may overlap with
Jon's discussion of liquidity in the second section) and of the possible spillovers
(which may overlap with the Nelson/Clouse discussion of the pros and cons of
lending).

operating income (loss). For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the effect was $(199) million and $(603) million, respectively, in both
revenues and operating income (loss). These amounts result primarily from interest rate and foreign currency derivatives that are effective economic hedges
of investments and borrowings.
(d) For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008, both revenues and operating income (loss) include unrealized market valuation losses of
$5.6 billion and $14.7 billion, respectively, on AIGFP’s super senior credit default swap portfolio. BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000150
(e) Includes net realized capital losses of $464 million and $1.9 billion for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008, respectively, including other-
than-temporary impairment charges of $882 million and $1.9 billion, respectively.

This gives some insight into what S&P is thinking.  S&P has a more optimistic view
than AIG on credit losses.  This is about the fact that things aren't turning around
fast enough, leaving bond holders to risk.

2 conversations this afternoon with AIG and NYSID:

AIG:
 Frenkel spoke with Kohn , who urged AIG to continue to pursue
private sector solutions and asset sales.   Noted continued reluctance
to do 13-3 lending.

AIG has put together a term sheet for NYSID , which they will be
discussing this evening.   The term sheet would outline all pieces of
liquidity plan, and plans for debt and equity injections , plans for asset
sales as well as regulatory forebearance to move assets from subs to

FYI - In general, state insurance statutes allow commercial insurance underwriters to pay out
a maximum dividend amount of the greater of (1) the prior year-end net income, or (2) 10%
of the surplus as regards policyholders, without the approval of the state’s insurance
regulatory authority.  State insurance regulatory authorities have the power to approve
extraordinary dividends on a case-by-case basis.

INTRODUCTION

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) and the Federal Reserve
System (FRS) joint Troubled Company Subgroup (Subgroup) was formed in 2000.1 The
Subgroup’s objective was to compare insurance and banking regulatory frameworks for
identifying and supervising companies in weakened financial condition, and was one of
four joint subgroups established by the NAIC and the FRS to address implementation of
the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB Act) enacted in November 1999.2 The GLB Act
facilitated the already growing integration of the insurance, banking and securities sectors
by permitting wider latitude for insurance companies, banks and securities firms to
operate within a single financial holding company (FHC), and mandated the coordinated
supervision of entities within an FHC by the financial sector regulators. The joint efforts
of the insurance and banking supervisors over the past several years have provided a
foundation for effective communication and coordination between the state insurance
departments and the FRS consistent with the GLB Act.

Topics presented and discussed by Subgroup members and guest speakers included: 1)
regulatory financial reporting frameworks; 2) off-site surveillance and monitoring
including “early warning systems” for identifying supervised companies having weak or
deteriorating financial conditions; 3) on-site examinations; 4) corrective action plans; 5)
enforcement powers; 6) risk-based capital (RBC) frameworks; 7) resolution processes for
failing and failed insurance companies and banks; and 8) the FRS’s role as umbrella
supervisor for FHCs. Separately, in connection with this initiative, staff of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) presented a summary of that agency’s resolution
procedures to the NAIC task force members. In comparing the two frameworks of law,
regulation, policy and procedures, the Subgroup members and other discussants stressed
that the specific supervisory approaches taken for any given financially weakened
insurance or banking company are dependent upon the specific facts and circumstances
as well as upon the respective supervisory frameworks.

The Subgroup found that the frameworks for identifying and supervising financially
weakened companies used by state insurance regulators and the FRS have many
similarities. For example, both the state insurance departments and the FRS:

1
The Subgroup’s initiative was conducted by staff from several state insurance departments, the NAIC, the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve Board) and the Federal Reserve Bank
of Boston under the auspices of the NAIC’s Financial Condition (E) Committee. The Subgroup, which was
originally established under the NAIC Coordinating with Federal Regulators Working Group now reports
up through the NAIC Financial Analysis Working Group (FAWG) of the NAIC Financial Condition (E)
Committee.
2
Unless otherwise noted, the banking supervisory framework presented in this paper is the approach used
by the FRS as it pertains to state member banks and bank holding companies (BHCs). The FRS also has
supervisory responsibility for certain U.S. bank branches and certain other U.S. banking offices of foreign
banking organizations (FBOs); however, the scope of this summary does not include FBO supervision.
Additionally, the scope of this summary was generally limited to financial soundness monitoring and the
supervision of financially weakened institutions. Comparisons of frameworks for identifying and
correcting issues pertaining to compliance with consumer protection regulations were also beyond the
scope of this summary.

1
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000208
• generally require supervised institutions to file detailed quarterly financial
condition and income reports, related supplementary information, and
information identifying affiliated entities of an insurer or a bank;
• conduct routine off-site monitoring of supervised companies other than small,
noncomplex BHCs, in part based upon information contained in regulatory
reports, and also using market information, to assist in early identification of
financially weakened companies and in allocating on-site examination
resources;
• have minimum capital standards, including an RBC framework that requires
regulatory intervention when capital of a supervised insurance company or
insured bank falls below a designated level;3
• impose limitations on and reporting requirements related to certain
transactions within holding company systems, including certain acquisitions
of or by a supervised entity;
• may require a financially weakened, supervised company to develop written
corrective action plans and submit progress reports on compliance with plans;
and
• may take various other supervisory actions against a financially weakened
company, including imposing restrictions on activities.

The Subgroup also identified three broad phases of supervisory activities as follows:

1) conducting both off-site monitoring of financial condition using financial


statement and market information analysis, and on-site examinations;

2) implementing corrective action plans for financially weakened companies; and

BACKGROUND ON THE GLB ACT

The GLB Act amendments to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (BHC Act)
authorized a qualifying bank holding company (BHC) to operate as an FHC and to
engage in a diversified range of financial activities, including insurance sales, insurance
underwriting, securities underwriting and dealing, acting as a futures commission
merchant, and engaging in merchant banking. To qualify as an FHC, each of the BHC's
depository institution subsidiaries must be well capitalized and well managed and each of
the BHC’s insured depository subsidiaries must have received at least a “Satisfactory”
Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) rating in its most recent CRA examination.4

Those insurance activities that are permitted to be conducted by an FHC include insuring,
guaranteeing, or indemnifying against loss, harm, damage, illness, disability, or death;
providing and issuing annuities; and acting as principal, agent, or broker for the foregoing
activities. Permissible activities also include those that the Federal Reserve Board and
the Secretary of Treasury jointly determine to be financial in nature or incidental to
financial activities, or that the Federal Reserve Board determines are complementary to a
financial activity and do not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of
depository institutions or the financially system generally.

Under the GLB Act, state regulation of insurance is preserved. A state law applicable to
insurance may be preempted, however, if it prevents or restricts a depository institution
or a depository institution affiliate from engaging in any activity authorized under the
GLB Act. For instance, state laws relating to insurance sales, solicitation and cross-
marketing activities may not prevent or significantly interfere with the ability of a bank or
bank affiliate to engage in insurance sales activities.

With limited exceptions that existed prior to the passage of the GLB Act, insurance
underwriting activities of an FHC may only be conducted by the FHC parent company or
by a nonbank subsidiary of the FHC. A bank and its subsidiaries are generally precluded
from insurance underwriting, other than the underwriting of credit life and credit health
products. As set forth in the GLB Act, general insurance sales may be conducted by an
FHC parent company or a nonbank subsidiary of the FHC, or by a financial subsidiary of
a bank. The GLB Act did not change the authority for national or state-chartered banks
to sell or underwrite insurance directly. Federal banking laws, however, generally
continue to limit insurance underwriting activities of banks to credit-related underwriting
activities. Most state banking laws now permit state-chartered banks to sell general
insurance.

The Federal Reserve Board is the umbrella supervisor of BHCs, including FHCs. In
accordance with the GLB Act, the Federal Reserve Board is to rely to the fullest extent
possible on reports of examination made by the applicable functional securities and

insurance regulators, including for any licensed insurance company and any other
subsidiary that the Federal Reserve Board finds to be comprehensively supervised by a
federal or state authority. If information that is needed to assess the risk of a functionally
regulated subsidiary of a banking organization is not available from the functional
regulator, the Federal Reserve Board may examine a functionally regulated subsidiary of
a BHC only if: the Federal Reserve Board has reasonable cause to believe that such
subsidiary is engaged in activities that pose a material risk to an affiliated depository
institution; the Federal Reserve Board reasonably determines, after reviewing relevant
reports, that examination of the subsidiary is necessary to adequately inform the Board of
the systems for monitoring and controlling operational risks that may pose a threat to the
safety and soundness of a depository institution subsidiary of the BHC; or, based on
reports and other available information, the Federal Reserve Board has reasonable cause
to believe that the subsidiary is not in compliance with the GLB Act or any other federal
law that the Federal Reserve Board has jurisdiction to enforce against such subsidiary,
and the Federal Reserve Board cannot make such a determination through examination of
the affiliated depository institution or the bank holding company.

OVERVIEW OF FRAMEWORKS FOR SUPERVISING INSURANCE AND
BANKING ORGANIZATIONS

Insurance

The primary objective of insurance regulation is to correct market failures that would
otherwise cause insurers to incur an excessive risk of insolvency or engage in market
abuses that hurt consumers. Significant state insurance department regulatory resources
are employed to monitor market behaviors, compliance, and solvency.

Each state, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories5 are responsible for
regulating the insurance business within their own jurisdictions. Each state maintains its
own insurance department, which operates under the supervision of a commissioner,
director, or superintendent who is either appointed or elected. Some states have
combined the regulation of insurance, banking, and securities, activities under one
department or office.

The NAIC, formed in 1871, is a private, non-profit, voluntary association of the chief
insurance regulatory officials of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the four U.S
territories (American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands). The NAIC
provides its members with a forum for discussing common interests and for working
cooperatively on regulatory matters that transcend the boundaries of their own
jurisdictions. The NAIC is not a regulatory body or a trade association, but is instead an
organization whose members consist solely of insurance regulators for the purpose of
facilitating communication and interaction among insurance regulators to enhance
insurance regulation and establish national standards, where appropriate.

The objective of the NAIC is to serve the public interest by assisting state insurance
supervisory officials, individually and collectively, in achieving the following
fundamental insurance regulatory objectives: 1) protect the public interest, promote
competitive markets and facilitate the fair and equitable treatment of insurance
consumers; 2) promote the reliability, solvency and financial solidity of insurance
institutions; and 3) support and improve state regulation of insurance. The primary
means for NAIC members to be actively involved in the association is through the NAIC
committee system. Each commissioner serves, or delegates to state insurance department
staff, the responsibility to serve on various NAIC committees, task forces and working
groups. The NAIC is committed to conducting its business openly, subject to the
discretion of the chairpersons of committees, subcommittees, tasks forces, working
groups and subgroups, who may determine those situations in which public discussions
would not be appropriate.

The NAIC coordinates and assists state solvency efforts in a number of ways, including:
1) maintaining extensive insurance databases and a computer network that are assessable

5
The fifty states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories are collectively referred to as “states” in
this document.

5
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000212
to all state insurance departments; 2) analyzing and informing regulators as to the
financial condition of insurance companies; 3) coordinating examinations and regulatory
actions with respect to financially weakened companies; 4) establishing and certifying
states’ compliance with minimum financial regulation standards through the NAIC’s
Financial Regulations Standards and Accreditation Program (Accreditation Program); 5)
providing financial, reinsurance, actuarial, legal, computer and economic expertise to
state insurance departments; 6) valuing securities held by insurers; 7) analyzing and
listing nonadmitted alien insurers;6 8) developing uniform statutory financial statements
and accounting rules for insurers; 9) conducting education and training programs for
insurance department staff; 10) developing model laws and coordinating regulatory
policy on significant insurance issues; and 11) conducting research and providing
information on insurance and its regulation to regulators, state legislators, Congress, U.S.
government agencies, insurance regulators in other countries, and the general public.

In June 1989, the NAIC adopted the Financial Regulation Standards (the Standards), that
established baseline sound practices for an effective regulatory system in each insurance
department. The Standards are applied through a formal, voluntary certification program
administrated by the NAIC. The objective of the Accreditation Program is to provide a
process whereby solvency regulation of multi-state insurance companies can be enhanced
and adequately monitored by the states. The Standards are grouped into three areas: 1)
laws and regulations; 2) regulatory practices and procedures; and 3) organizational and
personnel practices. Under this Accreditation Program, an independent team of
experienced consultants reviews each insurance department’s compliance with the
Standards at least every five years. All states have enacted legislation designed to
achieve compliance with the Standards, and as a result, insurance department budgets and
staffing have increased significantly. As of March 1, 2005, 49 states and the District of
Columbia were accredited under the Accreditation Program.

Insurance companies are chartered by individual jurisdictions and receive a certificate of


authority (that is, a license) to conduct business from each jurisdiction in which the
company desires to underwrite insurance. This has been the case since 1792, when
chartered insurance companies were first required by the states to limit company
activities and investments, and to file financial statements. The power of a state to
regulate insurance was established in 1869 in Paul v. Virginia, where insurance was

6
A nonadmitted insurer is a company not licensed by a state to sell insurance policies within the state.
Alien insurers are those formed according to the legal requirements of a foreign country. In order for an
alien insurer to conduct operations and sell its products in a particular state, the insurer must conform to the
state’s rules and regulations governing insurance companies. A nonadmitted alien insurer may be allowed
to write on a surplus lines basis if it complies with the state’s eligibility requirements. To assist states in
their review of nonadmitted alien insurers, the NAIC produces a Quarterly Listing of Nonadmitted Alien
Insurers (the Listing). If an insurer appears in the Listing, it has filed specified documents with the NAIC
International Insurers Department (IID) and, based upon these documents and other information, appears to
fulfill the criteria for eligibility set forth by the NAIC. Several states utilize the Listing to some capacity
within their respective state statutes or regulations in relation to their eligibility requirements.

6
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000213
declared a local matter rather than commerce between the states. By 1870, many of the
states had appointed a state official to oversee insurance.

In 1944, the U.S. Supreme Court in United States v. South-Eastern Underwriters


Association ruled that insurance was “commerce” and subject in its interstate activity to
regulation by the Congress and the statutory restriction of the Sherman Act prohibition
against restraint of trade. In 1945, however, Congress enacted the McCarran-Ferguson
Act, which included a limited exception from certain antitrust laws for certain insurance-
related activities. The McCarran-Ferguson Act generally made insurance subject to state
control and withheld the application of federal statutes to the extent that state law
regulated such business, except in instances where the federal law specifically relates to
insurance.

The states issue a number of different insurance company license types, including life and
health, and property and casualty licenses. The states also issue insurance producer
license types, including broker, independent agents, managing general agents, and
general agent licenses.7 Reinsurers may either be authorized or licensed to write
reinsurance business depending on the states laws and regulations. Under state insurance
law, provided the owner meets certain criteria through the regulatory approval process,
there are very few outright restrictions on a licensed insurer’s ownership by, or affiliation
with, other financial or non-financial companies. An exception is the general prohibition
on foreign government ownership of an insurer.

State insurance law does not provide for consolidated supervision of the insurance
holding company or the parent holding company. However, an insurance company is
subject to state restrictions and disclosures regarding inter-affiliate relationships, and
change in ownership is subject to state insurance department approval. Under state law, a
licensed insurance company is generally authorized to own subsidiaries that conduct
insurance or insurance-related business activities, including real estate management and
real estate development. Investments in higher risk activities are limited by state statutes
and indirectly through statutory RBC minimum standards.

State insurance regulators have recognized a growing need to more fully coordinate their
regulatory efforts with other state insurance regulators, including efforts for sharing
confidential supervisory information. Historically, there has been significant
coordination with respect to supervising financially weakened companies; similar efforts
are also underway to focus on holding company systems or insurance groups that are
financially strong. In 2000, the NAIC formed the Insurance Holding Company (E)
Working Group (IHCWG) in an effort to document a framework for information sharing
and coordination of regulatory processes for analyzing insurance holding companies and
their insurance subsidiaries. The NAIC Framework for Insurance Holding Company

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000214
Regulation (Framework) is the result of the IHCWG’s work. The Framework provides
guidance for state insurance regulators to understand the holding company structure of
insurers operating in their state, as well as to coordinate their supervisory approaches for
reviewing holding company transactions that may impact insurance subsidiaries
domiciled in multiple jurisdictions. Currently, this Framework is in the implementation
stage.

Banking

The FRS is the primary federal banking regulator for state member banks. It also has
supervisory authority for all U.S. bank holding companies. In the U.S., commercial
banks are either federally chartered by the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) as
national banks, or are chartered by a state. National banks are supervised by the OCC
and are members of the FRS. State-chartered banks that are members of the FRS are
referred to as state member banks, and are supervised by both the applicable state
banking department(s) and the FRS. A state bank that does not choose to become a
member of the FRS is referred to as a state nonmember bank and is supervised by both
the applicable state banking department(s) and the FDIC. The OCC, FRS and FDIC are
the primary federal bank supervisors for national banks, state member banks and state
nonmember banks, respectively. A “dual banking system” exists in the U.S. whereby
state-chartered banks have both a federal bank and a state bank regulator(s).8 Therefore,
the FRS actively coordinates its supervision of state member banks with the applicable
state banking department(s).

Prior Federal Reserve Board approval is required for a company to initially become a
BHC or for an existing BHC to acquire control of, or more than five percent of a class of
voting securities of, additional BHCs or banks. Relevant federal statutes state that
control of a BHC or bank exists when a company has (i) ownership, control, or power to
vote 25 percent or more of the outstanding shares of any class of voting securities of the
BHC or bank, directly or indirectly or acting through one or more other persons; (ii)
control in any manner over the election of a majority of the directors, trustees, or general
partners (or individuals exercising similar functions) of the BHC or bank; or (iii) the
power to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or
policies of the BHC or bank. A company includes corporations, partnerships,
associations, certain trusts, and similar organizations. Also, non-financial firms generally
are prohibited from controlling banks and thus are prohibited from owning 25 percent or
more of the voting stock of a bank.

The FRS has supervisory authority over BHCs, including those that are FHCs, and
supervises these entities on a consolidated basis. The FRS supervisory approach reflects
the “source of strength” doctrine, which asserts that a BHC should serve as a source of
financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks, within certain constraints. This
doctrine was reconfirmed in the GLB Act, except that the Act indicates that the FRS
cannot require a BHC that is an insurance company, or an insurance company that is an
8

8
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000215
affiliate of a depository institution, to provide funds or other assets to the affiliated
depository institution if the state insurance authority makes a determination, in writing,
that such action would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the
insurance company.

The FRS is comprised of 12 regional Federal Reserve Banks under the general oversight
of the Federal Reserve Board, which is located in Washington, D.C. The Federal Reserve
Board and its staff develop FRS regulations and policies. The Federal Reserve Board is
an independent government agency overseen by 7 board members, including the Federal
Reserve Board Chairman and Vice Chairman, all of whom are appointed by the president
and confirmed by the Senate. Each Federal Reserve Board member is appointed to serve
a 14-year term, or if replacing a board member whose term has not yet expired, to serve
the remainder of the previous board member’s 14-year term. The Federal Reserve Board
Chairman has a 4-year term, and may be reappointed.

In carrying out responsibilities for the comprehensive supervision of BHCs, including


FHCs, the FRS coordinates and cooperates, as appropriate, with the other bank and thrift
regulators, including the OCC, the FDIC, the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), and
state banking departments. The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
(FFIEC), whose members consist of the FRS, OCC, OTS, FDIC and National Credit
Union Administration (NCUA), is an organization that fosters uniform depository
institution regulatory reporting and consistent supervisory policy among those federal
agencies. Moreover, federal and state bank and thrift supervisors share certain databases
and other supervision tools and resources in order to develop coordinated and consistent
regulation of supervised entities.

Additionally, in carrying out its role as the consolidated supervisor for BHCs, including
FHCs, the FRS also relies on and coordinates its supervisory activities with, as
appropriate, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission, and state insurance and securities regulators.

TOOLS FOR IDENTIFYING FINANCIALLY WEAKENED INSTITUTIONS

Insurance

Financial Reporting

The NAIC reporting requirements have evolved considerably since its annual statement
introduction in 1879. All states require an insurer to use the NAIC annual and quarterly
statement reporting forms to satisfy their statutory financial statement filing
requirements, except that states may exempt an insurer from this requirement, as
appropriate. The complete annual statement filing currently includes a balance sheet,
income statement, statement of cash flow, notes to financial statements, general
interrogatories,9 and a significant number of supporting details in various exhibits,
schedules and supplemental filings. Some of the more important exhibits and schedules
provide information about: investment income and realized gains and losses; nonadmitted
assets; Asset Valuation Reserve and Interest Maintenance Reserve; premiums and losses;
expenses; long-term investments in bonds, preferred stock, common stock, real estate,
mortgage loans, and other investments; derivatives; short-term investments; cash and
cash equivalents; reinsurance; and transactions with affiliates. Supplemental filings are
also required of most insurers, such as the actuarial opinion, the management’s discussion
and analysis, the annual audited financial report, and the RBC report. Other
supplemental filings include specialty information such as the Medicare supplement
report, the credit insurance report, and the long-term care report. Since December 31,
2003, insurers are also required to report affiliations with a BHC, bank, thrift or securities
firm; to provide the names of each such affiliate; and to identify the relevant federal
regulators of each insurer’s financial institution affiliate. In addition to the annual
statements, most insurers also are required to file the NAIC quarterly statement reporting
form that contains key information on assets and liabilities; income and surplus; changes
in investments; reinsurance; premiums written; losses and reserves.

Insurance company statutory financial reports are based on statutory accounting


principles (SAP), which are designed to address the concerns of regulators. SAP stresses
measurement of the ability to pay claims of insurers in the future, while generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) stresses measurement of earnings of a business
from period to period, and the matching of revenues and expenses for the measurement
period.10 Conservatism serves as a major principle in SAP. For example, some assets are
not allowed to be included in an insurer’s surplus; these are referred to as nonadmitted
assets. Another example of conservatism is the prohibition against discounting reserves,
and the fact that specific tables approved by regulators are required to establish reserves
for various life insurance products. Under GAAP, the experience expected by each
insurance company, with provision for the risk of adverse deviation, is used to determine
the reserves it will establish for its policies.

Solvency Screening and Financial Analysis Systems

The fundamental objective of insurance company solvency monitoring is to ensure that


companies meet regulatory standards and to alert regulators if actions need to be taken to
protect policyholders. To accomplish this task, the state insurance regulators conduct
financial analysis using regulatory financial reports, financial tools and other sources of
information to detect problems that may jeopardize a company’s long-term viability.
These sources include SEC filings, corporate reports, external, independent certified
public accountant (CPA) attestation reports, financial examination and market conduct
reports, rate and policy form filings, consumer complaints, independent rating agency
reports, correspondence from agents and insurers, and business media.

State insurance departments generally prioritize the review of their domiciliary


companies based on a system of financial ratios and other screening tools, including those
maintained by the NAIC. The NAIC has created a network of financial information
systems and tools, such as the Financial Analysis Solvency Tools (FAST) System that
includes the Insurance Regulatory Information System (IRIS), the Scoring System, and
the Insurer Profiles System that are discussed below. The NAIC makes the information
systems and tools available to state insurance regulators over the NAIC’s Internet-State
Interface Technology Enhancement (I-SITE). I-SITE provides a common user interface
for more than 50 applications that are used to produce a wide variety of standard and
custom reports.

To be accredited, a state is required to conduct quarterly financial analysis on their


domiciliary multi-state insurers. Most states conduct quarterly financial analysis on their
single-state insurers as well. Typically, insurers with anomalous results, or those that
have been previously identified for attention are subject to additional analysis.

The domiciliary state is relied upon as the primary solvency regulator. When there are
concerns about the financial condition of an insurer, communications between the
domiciliary state and the other states in which the company is licensed are increased.
However, any state in which a company is licensed to conduct insurance business may
perform its own monitoring, financial examinations, and may take regulatory action, as
appropriate.

FAST System

The FAST System is a collection of analytical tools designed to provide state insurance
regulators with an integrated approach to screening and analyzing the financial condition
of insurance companies. The following are three key tools within the FAST System:

1) Insurance Regulatory Information System (IRIS)

IRIS has served as a baseline solvency screening system for the NAIC and state
regulators since the mid-1970s. IRIS is designed to help regulators prioritize
insurers for detailed financial analysis. The “statistical phase” of IRIS involves

11
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000218
calculating a series of financial ratios for each insurer based on its annual
statement data. The IRIS ratio results are available to the public. Because the
ratios by themselves are not indicative of adverse financial condition, an
experienced team of state insurance examiners and analysts (Analyst Team)
reviews the IRIS ratio results and various other financial information in the
“analytical phase” of IRIS, called the Analyst Team System (ATS).

For the ATS, the Analyst Team meets annually at the NAIC Executive
Headquarters to identify insurers that appear to require immediate regulatory
attention in order to assist state insurance regulators in prioritizing their annual
financial analysis reviews of insurers. The Analyst Team reviews a computer-
selected priority listing of insurers that may be experiencing weak or declining
financial results. It then validates the listing based on further analysis of those
companies, and provides a brief synopsis of its findings in a document that can be
accessed only by state insurance regulators and authorized NAIC staff.

2) Scoring System

The Scoring System is based on several financial ratios and is similar in concept
to IRIS ratios. The Scoring System, however, includes a broader range of
financial ratios and assigns a score to each ratio based on the level of solvency
concern each result generates. The ratio results and scores are available only to
state insurance regulators and authorized NAIC staff. The Scoring System is
evaluated and updated, as appropriate, by the Financial Analysis Research and
Development Working Group on an annual basis.

3) Insurer Profiles System

The Insurer Profiles System produces quarterly and annual profiles reports on
property and casualty, life and health insurers. These profiles provide either a
quarterly or annual five-year summary of a company’s financial position. The
Insurer Profile reports provide not only a snapshot of the company's financial
statement, but also include analytical tools such as financial ratios and industry
aggregate information that can be used in an analyst's review of the company.
Insurer Profile reports can assist state insurance department analysts in identifying
unusual fluctuations, trends or changes in the mix of an insurer's assets, liabilities,
capital and surplus and operations.

Peer Review Process

As a check and balance on the solvency screening efforts conducted by the states, a peer
review process was created. The objective of the NAIC’s peer review process conducted
by the FAWG is to monitor whether domiciliary regulators are taking appropriate and
effective supervisory action with respect to nationally significant insurers that are in
financial difficulty. The FAWG is made up of commissioner appointed members from
sixteen states.

12
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000219
On a quarterly basis, the NAIC’s Financial Regulatory Services Division staff identifies
nationally significant insurers for review using analytical criteria. Division financial
analysts perform preliminary reviews of identified insurers and then select insurers that
warrant more in-depth reviews. For those insurers, the FAWG will review the analysts’
reports and then query the domiciliary state on various aspects of each insurer’s financial
condition and any regulatory actions being taken. If the FAWG determines that the
domiciliary regulator is taking appropriate actions, then the FAWG may close the file or
continue to monitor the company. If the FAWG determines that further measures are
desirable, it will recommend the appropriate corrective action to the domiciliary state. If
the domiciliary regulators fail to follow the FAWG’s recommendation, the FAWG will
alert other affected states accordingly and coordinate their supervisory response.

State Insurance Department Financial Examination Process

The purpose of a financial condition examination is to: 1) detect insurers with potential
weaknesses; 2) determine compliance with state statutes and regulations; and 3) compile
information needed for timely, appropriate regulatory action. On-site financial condition
examinations of insurers are either full-scope or limited-scope examinations. The full-
scope examination is considered a comprehensive examination with an overall objective
to report on the company’s financial position and affairs. A limited-scope examination,
often referred to as a target examination, is conducted to review specific financial
accounts and or specific areas of the company’s operations.

State laws and regulations, as guided by the Accreditation Program, require the states to
conduct a full-scope examination for each multi-state domestic company at least once
every five years. Individual state statutes may require financial condition examinations
more often, and several states impose a three-year requirement. Limited-scope
examinations do not satisfy the NAIC Accreditation Standards to conduct financial
condition examinations at least once every five years. However, failing to conduct
limited-scope examinations for financial weakened companies may impact the results of
the accreditation review.

Frequently, full-scope examinations will be conducted as so called “zone examinations.”


A zone examination is a process to reduce the number of financial condition
examinations of multi-state licensed insurers. The concept of zone examinations
developed in response to the fact that states are entitled to conduct financial condition
examinations on insurers that are licensed in their state regardless if they are domiciled
elsewhere. As this ability could result in multiple examinations of the same company, the
process of inviting representatives from other zones to participate evolved in order to
reduce regulatory burden and increase efficiency.

On-site financial condition examinations investigate a company’s accounting methods


and procedures, financial statement presentation, and validate what is presented in the
annual financial statement assets, liabilities, capital and surplus line items, to ascertain
whether the company is in good financial standing. The main thrust of the examination is

13
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000220
to verify the company’s solvency and determine whether the company has complied with
state laws and regulations. In general, financial condition examinations shall at least
encompass a review of all of the following matters: 1) company history; 2) management
and control; 3) corporate records; 4) fidelity bonds and other insurance; 5) officers’,
employees’, and agents’ welfare and pension plans; 6) territory and plan of operation; 7)
growth of company; 8) business in force by states; 9) mortality and loss experience; 10)
reinsurance; 11) accounts and records; and 12) financial statements. Examinations are
conducted using a risk-based approach, whereby those areas identified as more likely to
be prone to material financial reporting error are accorded greater attention during both
the examination planning phase and the on-site examination.

The state financial condition examination process also places emphasis on the quality of
the company’s internal control structure. This requires the state examiners to assess the
internal control environment based on interviews with company management and
personnel and other control testing procedures. On occasion, state insurance departments
will engage outside experts to evaluate and test the effectiveness of internal controls (e.g.,
information system controls). The financial condition examination process also considers
the work performed by external, independent CPAs as well as the work of internal
auditors.

Regulatory Capital Framework for Insurance Companies

An insurer’s capital and surplus provides a cushion against unexpected increases in


liabilities and decreases in the value of assets, and are intended to absorb the costs of a
rehabilitation or liquidation with minimal losses to policyholders and claimants. States
require insurers to have a certain amount of capital and surplus to establish and continue
operations. A state insurance department is authorized to take over, or “seize” an
insurance company if the state can show to the applicable state court that the insurer will
be unable to meet its obligations to policyholders.

Fixed minimum capital and surplus standards for licensing and operating an insurance
company typically range in the area of $2 million to $5 million for a multi-line life and
health or property and casualty insurer. Because of the limitations of fixed minimum
capital standards, the NAIC adopted the Risk-based Capital (RBC) for Insurers Model
Act. To be accredited, a state is required to adopt a substantially similar version of the
Model Act, which contains separate formulas for life and health insurers and property and
casualty insurers, and prescribes regulatory action to be taken if an insurer’s Total
Adjusted Capital declines below certain thresholds. The stated objectives of the NAIC
RBC requirements are to provide a standard of capital adequacy that: 1) is related to risk;
2) raises the safety net for insurers; 3) is uniform among states; and 4) provides authority
for regulatory action when actual capital falls below the standard. The model act
specifies four levels of company and regulatory action, with more severe action required
at lower levels.

The NAIC’s life and health RBC formula encompasses six major categories of risk: 1)
asset risk — affiliates; 2) asset risk – common stock; 3) asset risk — other; 4) insurance

14
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000221
or pricing risk; 5) interest-rate risk and health credit risk and 6) business risk. The risks
addressed by the NAIC’s property and casualty formula include: 1) asset risk —
subsidiary insurance companies; 2) asset risk — fixed income; 3) asset risk — equity; 4)
asset risk — credit; 5) underwriting risk — reserves; and 6) underwriting risk — net
written premium.

Databases and Information Systems


The NAIC maintains a number of databases that state insurance regulators and NAIC
staff use for financial analysis and other regulatory functions, including: 1) the Financial
Data Repository (FDR); 2) the State Producer Licensing Database (SPLD); 3) Valuation
of Securities (VOS); 4) Regulatory Information Retrieval System (RIRS); and 5) Special
Activities Database (SAD). The NAIC financial databases serve as the core resource of
the solvency surveillance and other analysis activities of state insurance regulators and
the NAIC.

The FDR database contains the most recent 10 years of annual and quarterly financial
statement information for the approximately 5,200 U.S. insurance companies. This
database provides source data for reports on individual companies and for analytical
tools, such as the FAST System.

The VOS database contains credit quality designations and fair values for insurers'
securities that are not rated and monitored by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating
Organization (NRSRO). This database, combined with NRSRO ratings data, allows
regulators to assess the relative credit risk of the securities owned and reported by
insurers.

The SPLD database contains information on insurance companies, such as consumer


complaints, and on nearly 3.5 million individual producers, including producer licensing
and appointment information.

RIRS database contains formally adjudicated regulatory actions taken by participating


state insurance departments against insurance producers, companies and other entities
engaged in the business of insurance. The SAD is a confidential database that contains
information related to suspicious market activities and legal actions involving entities
engaged in the business of insurance. The RIRS and SAD databases enhance state
insurance regulators’ ability to share information among state insurance departments on
individuals or companies suspected of illegal or questionable activities and are tools to
assist in the prevention of movement of these activities into new areas.

State insurance regulators and NAIC staff also use an electronic mail system on the
NAIC’s computer network to communicate and coordinate supervisory developments
with respect to examinations, regulatory actions, financially weakened companies, and a
variety of other matters.

Banking (State Member Banks and BHCs)

Financial Reporting

All banks, including state member banks, are required to file quarterly regulatory reports
known as FFIEC Call Reports consisting of consolidated balance sheets, income
statements, RBC data and selected supplementary financial information. All BHCs are
also required to file periodic regulatory reports. Those BHCs with consolidated assets
over $150 million, and BHCs below that threshold that are categorized by the FRS as
“complex,” are required to file consolidated balance sheets, income statements and RBC
data, as well as parent company financial statements, on a quarterly basis. BHCs under
$150 million that are non-complex BHCs are required to file parent company only
financial statements semi-annually, but are not required to file fully consolidated
financial reports. Additionally, all BHC are required to file periodic regulatory reports
detailing certain intercompany transactions and balances between a bank and its nonbank
affiliates; balance sheet and income statement data for certain of its domestic, non-
functionally regulated nonbank subsidiaries and certain foreign domiciled bank and non-
bank subsidiaries; and reports of new activities commenced. There are a number of other
regulatory reports that must be filed by state member banks and BHCS.11

Surveillance and Monitoring

The FRS off-site surveillance program is designed to monitor the financial condition and
performance of individual state member banks and BHCs on a quarterly basis to facilitate
identifying deterioration in the condition of companies between on-site examinations and
inspections. Monitoring is accomplished, in part, through the use of automated screening
systems and econometric models. These tools rely significantly on data reported on
standardized regulatory reports and from the findings of on-site examinations. The
surveillance program takes into consideration a number of aspects of banking
performance, including capital adequacy, asset growth, loan quality and loan
concentrations, liquidity, and capital markets activities. These surveillance results,
produced by Federal Reserve Board staff, are distributed to the Federal Reserve Banks
for further review, analysis, and follow-up.

FRS Surveillance screens incorporate the results of two econometric models, together
known as the System for Estimating Examination Ratings (SEER).12 The SEER risk rank
model estimates the probability that a bank will become critically undercapitalized within
the next two years. The SEER rating model estimates a bank’s composite CAMELS

11
A complete listing of bank and BHC report forms and instructions may be found on the Federal Reserve
Board and the FFIEC websites (http://www.federalreserve.gov/ and http://www ffiec.gov/, respectively).
12
The SEER system developed by a FRS Surveillance Task Force was formerly known as the Financial
Institutions Monitoring System (FIMS). The SEER models have been updated since they were first
implemented, but a detailed description of the econometric frameworks used is contained in an article by
Rebel Cole, Barbara Cornyn and Jeff Gunther in the Federal Reserve Bulletin, volume 81, number 1,
January, 1995, pps. 1-15.

16

rating based upon Call Report data and examination rating information. The surveillance
screening results are strictly confidential.

To support off-site monitoring of bank performance and condition and on-site


examinations, the FFIEC produces a quarterly Uniform Bank Performance Report
(UBPR) for each commercial bank and FDIC-insured savings bank. These reports
display current and historic balance sheet and income statement items, along with key
performance ratios and peer group statistics. The FRS produces a similar report, the
Bank Holding Company Performance Report (BHCPR), for BHCs over $150 million in
consolidated assets. These UBPR and BHCPR reports are publicly available.

Bank Examinations and BHC Inspections

The FRS’s safety and soundness examinations of state member banks and inspections of
BHCs are focused on determining the financial condition and performance of an
institution, and on evaluating management, internal controls and the risk management
structure. The Federal Reserve is required to conduct a full-scope, on-site examination of
every insured state member bank at least once during each 12-month period, with the
exception that certain small institutions may be examined once during each 18-month
period. The frequency of BHC inspections is determined by the size, condition, and
complexity of the BHC.

Examiners assign a composite rating to a banking institution reflecting an assessment of


the overall condition of the institution, including an assessment of relevant processes and
risk management techniques. As noted earlier, the rating system used for banks is known
as CAMELS, an acronym for the components it evaluates: capital, asset quality,
management, earnings, liquidity and sensitivity to market risk. Until January 1, 2005,
BHCs were assigned a supervisory rating using a rating system known as BOPEC, which
included evaluations of: bank subsidiaries (“B”); “other” (nonbank subsidiaries) (“O”);
the parent company (“P”); consolidated BHC earnings (“E”); and consolidated BHC
capital adequacy (“C”). A new BHC rating system has been adopted effective January 1,
2005.13 Under this system, a BHC is assigned an RFI/C(D) rating rather than a BOPEC
rating. RFI/C(D) is an acronym for the components of: risk management (“R”); financial
condition (“F”); potential adverse impact (“I”) of nonbank affiliates on the affiliated
depository institution(s); a composite BHC rating (“C”) based on an evaluation and rating
of the BHC’s managerial and financial condition and an assessment of future potential
risk to its subsidiary depository institution(s); and a rating for the depository institution(s)
(“D”) that will generally mirror the primary regulator’s assessment of the subsidiary
depository institution(s). Bank and BHC supervisory ratings and the reports of bank
examinations and BHC inspections are strictly confidential.

FHCs are generally supervised similarly to any other BHC with a focus on understanding
and assessing the quality of centralized risk management and control processes for key

17

business lines, as well as understanding the intra-group exposures and risk concentrations
across all business lines. To supervise a diversified BHC, the FRS relies to the extent
possible on, and coordinates with, the appropriate functional regulators.

Financial safety and soundness examinations and inspections generally include a review
of compliance with a wide range of laws and regulations. In addition, the FRS also
conducts consumer compliance examinations of state member banks to determine
adherence with applicable consumer protection laws and regulations and assigns a
compliance examination rating. Depository institutions, including state member banks
supervised by the FRS, are also evaluated for their compliance with the CRA and
assigned a separate CRA rating. An institution’s CRA rating is publicly available.

Regulatory Capital Frameworks

Basel Capital Accord

The Basel Capital Accord (Basel I), the current international framework for bank capital
adequacy, was adopted in 1988 by the G-10 group of central banks and other national
supervisory authorities, working through the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.14
The FRS and the other federal banking agencies implemented an RBC approach for U.S.
banking organizations in 1989. The fundamental objectives of Basel I are to promote the
soundness and stability of the international banking system and to provide an equitable
basis for international competition among banks. More specifically, Basel I sets forth
RBC standards intended to assist in the assessment of capital adequacy of depository
institutions. Other key objectives of the standards were to: 1) make regulatory capital
requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banks; 2) factor off-
balance sheet exposures into the assessment of capital adequacy; 3) minimize
disincentives to holding liquid, low-risk assets; and 4) achieve greater consistency in the
evaluation of the capital of the major banks throughout the world.15

Under the Basel I framework, capital adequacy is assessed primarily in relation to credit
risk with the other risks addressed implicitly. In 1996, Basel I was amended to take
explicit account of market risk in trading accounts (i.e., the risk of loss due to a change in
market prices, such as equity prices or interest or exchange rates).

Under the Basel I framework, a bank (and, in the U.S., generally a BHC with
consolidated assets greater than $150 million) is required to have regulatory capital, as
measured by combinations of equity, allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL),
qualified subordinated debt, and certain other instruments, at least equal to 8 percent of

14
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision was established in 1974 comprising members from the
central banks or other supervisory authorities of Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan,
Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the U.S.
15
Additional detail and background on the FRS’s and the NAIC’s RBC approaches can be found in the
Report of the NAIC and the Federal Reserve System Joint Subgroup on Risk-Based Capital and Regulatory
Arbitrage, dated May 24, 2002.

18
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000225
the amount of its risk-weighted assets. For the calculation, assets are weighted according
to the level of perceived risk, and each off-balance sheet exposure is converted to an on-
balance sheet equivalent, and then risk-weighted. Assets and off-balance sheet
equivalents are generally risk-weighted at 100, 50, 20, or 0 percent. This measure is
referred to as the total RBC ratio.

Another measure of capital adequacy used in the banking organization RBC framework is
the Tier 1 RBC ratio. The Tier 1 RBC ratio is a more conservative measure that
generally excludes debt instruments and the ALLL from the capital numerator. To be
adequately capitalized, a U.S. banking organization must have a minimum Tier 1 RBC
ratio of 4 percent. In addition, banking organizations are subject to a leverage ratio
measure to evaluate capital adequacy. The leverage ratio, which is calculated as equity
capital as a percentage of average balance sheet assets, is also used to evaluate capital
adequacy.

Currently, a revised RBC framework referred to as the Basel II Capital Accord is in the
process of being implemented by U.S. and many foreign bank regulators. The objectives
for reform include improving risk measurement and management; linking, more
precisely, the amount of minimum regulatory capital to the amount of risk taken; further
focusing the dialogue between supervisors and a banking organization on the
measurement and management of risk and the connection between risk and capital; and
increasing market discipline through enhanced transparency.16

Prompt Corrective Action (PCA)

As a result of the bank failures in the late 1980s and the rapid depletion of the federal
deposit insurance fund, Congress mandated a PCA framework in the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA). This act requires federal
bank regulators to administer timely corrective action to a bank when its capital position
is deemed to have declined below certain threshold levels. The PCA framework specifies
mandatory actions that regulators must take if capital ratios fall below certain thresholds,
as well as discretionary actions that may be taken.17

Under the PCA statute and accompanying regulations, a bank is assigned to one of five
capital categories based primarily on the capital ratios reported in the quarterly FFIEC
Call Reports. Four of the five PCA capital categories – “well capitalized,” “adequately
capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” and “significantly undercapitalized,” are based on three
capital adequacy ratios: the total RBC ratio, the Tier 1 RBC ratio, and the leverage ratio.
The most severe capital category, “critically undercapitalized,” is determined by a bank’s

16
Additional information pertaining to the Basel II Capital Accord may be found on the FRS public
website (http://www federalreserve.gov/) and the Bank for International Settlements public website

17
The PCA regulations applicable to state member banks are found at the Federal Reserve Board’s
Regulation H, Subpart D (12 C.F.R. 208.40 et seq.).

19
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000226
tangible equity ratio, which measures the equity capital to assets ratios excluding
intangible assets from the numerator and the denominator.

If a bank is deemed to be “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” or


“critically undercapitalized” as defined in FDICIA based on its capital ratios, the bank
must submit a capital restoration plan that is acceptable to its primary federal regulator,
may not make any capital distribution, and may not pay a management fee to anyone that
controls the bank. In addition, the bank may not increase its asset size, except under
limited conditions, and may not make acquisitions or establish new branches or new lines
of business, unless it meets certain conditions. Significantly undercapitalized and
critically undercapitalized banks are subject to additional mandatory restrictions. The
bank’s primary federal regulator may also impose one or more of the discretionary
restrictions enumerated in the statute and regulations through the issuance of a Prompt
Corrective Action Directive to any undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, or
critically undercapitalized bank. A bank may contest the issuance of such a directive
through an agency appeal process. Under the PCA statute, a critically undercapitalized
bank generally must be placed in conservatorship or receivership within 90 days of
becoming critically undercapitalized.

In accordance with FDICIA, a BHC must guarantee its subsidiary bank’s capital
restoration plan and provide appropriate assurances of performance. Additionally, the
cross-guarantee provision of FDICIA requires that, generally, any insured depository
institution is liable for losses to the FDIC arising from the default of a commonly
controlled insured depository institution. This provision was implemented, in part, to
avoid the potential adverse effect of a bank shifting bad assets into a failing affiliate bank
and thereby increasing the cost to the FDIC insurance fund.

Databases and Information Systems

The Federal Reserve Board maintains the National Information Center (NIC), a
repository for both bank structure, financial, and confidential supervisory data for all
commercial banks and BHCs. Additionally, the Central Document Text Repository
(CDTR) is the repository for the electronic versions of commercial bank examination and
BHC inspection reports, as well as other confidential supervisory documents. Front-end
systems are available to authorized FRS staff for accessing these databases containing
both publicly available and confidential supervisory information.

APPROACHES FOR SUPERVISING A FINANCIALLY WEAKENED
COMPANY

The state insurance regulators and the FRS each have enforcement powers to support
their ability to carry out their supervisory responsibilities, and both are subject to laws
that require the regulator to take specified corrective action based on RBC thresholds for
supervised insurers and supervised state member banks, respectively.

State Insurance Departments

Regulatory actions of an insurance department include activities that go beyond the


monitoring and surveillance activities described above include:

Hearings/Conferences – These are sessions in which witnesses are requested to


discuss, testify, or otherwise provide information to a state’s insurance department
with respect to a specific insurance company or group of companies. Hearings or
conferences may be conducted either informally, involving only the department and
insurance company personnel, or formally, involving the presence of an appointed
hearing officer to conduct the session.

Implementation of a Corrective Plan – This involves the execution of a plan of action,


reviewed and monitored by a state insurance department, for an insurer to correct a
troubled or potentially troubled situation. This may include corrective plans required
under RBC requirements.

Restrictions on Activities – Such activities may include prohibitions, conditions, or


limitations placed by a state insurance department on certain activities or transactions
of an insurance company. Examples include requiring pre-approval by the department
of specific activities or transactions. The ability to place restrictions on an insurance
company depends, in part, on the laws or regulations of the particular jurisdiction.

Notice of Impairment – This is a formal regulatory communication from a state


insurance department to an insurance company informing the insurance company that
the company does not meet stated minimum statutory capital and/or surplus
requirements and requiring the company to correct the deficiency by a certain date.

Cease and Desist/Suspension Order – This is a formal regulatory communication from


a state insurance department ordering an insurance company to stop certain activities,
such as the issuance of new insurance policies.

Supervision – This is an action taken by a state insurance department under its


administrative or legal provisions, under which a supervisor is appointed by an
insurance department or by a court to “supervise” the operations of an insurance
company. The supervision may be “confidential” (i.e., unannounced or “drawer”),
“announced” by the insurance department, or “voluntary” (i.e., assistance was
requested or acknowledged by the insurance company).

21
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000228
The Federal Reserve System

The FRS employs a range of tools to identify and address a supervised bank or BHC
exhibiting emerging problems or weakened financial condition in order to maintain a
sound banking system, minimize potential losses to the FDIC insurance fund, and
facilitate the institution’s return to financial health, if possible. Routinely, a summary of
examiner findings and expected actions is conveyed to the banking organization
following each targeted review of a particular business line or business activity, as well
as in an examination report that summarizes the key findings of the reviews conducted
during the 12- to 18- month examination cycle. For those institutions whose problems
warrant additional supervisory action, a range of informal and formal supervisory actions
is available, in addition to the PCA measures for banks described above.

Informal corrective actions include resolutions adopted by an institution’s board of


directors and Memoranda of Understanding between the appropriate Federal Reserve
Bank and an institution, whereby the institution’s board agrees to implement the actions
that the institution will take to correct deficiencies. Informal actions are not made
publicly available by the FRS.18

Formal corrective actions, including Written Agreements and Cease and Desist Orders,
are authorized by the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act) to correct violations of
law and unsafe or unsound practices. These agreements and orders may require a
depository institution, a BHC, certain other entities, and any institution-affiliated party,
including any director, officer, employee or controlling shareholder to take affirmative
action to correct deficiencies or to cease engaging in the violations or other unsafe or
unsound practices. Written Agreements and Cease and Desist Orders are made publicly
available. They may include measures designed to improve a bank’s capital and asset
quality by placing restrictions on dividends, requiring the employment of more qualified
management and improved oversight by the bank’s board of directors. Written
Agreements and Cease and Desist Orders against BHCs may also include requirements
for capital infusions to an undercapitalized FDIC-insured subsidiary bank; restrictions on
additional debt, dividends, and inter-corporate transactions; and the termination of certain
nonbank activities that constitute violations of law or unsafe or unsound banking
practices.

In cases where specific violations or practices are likely to cause insolvency, cause
dissipation of assets or earnings, weaken the condition of the institution, or prejudice the
depositors’ interests, the FRS may issue a Temporary Cease and Desist Order to address
these violations or practices. A Temporary Cease and Desist Order requires the banking
organization to take or cease specific actions and remains in effect pending the outcome
of an administrative hearing on the issues. Temporary Cease and Desist Orders are

The SEC requires publicly traded companies to make public disclosure of certain material information
that may affect the securities markets. A publicly traded financial institution, therefore, may be required to

22
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000229
generally not made public by the FRS. In the event that an institution does not consent to
supervisory action, the FRS may issue a Notice of Charges to initiate litigation.

The FRS is authorized by the FDI Act to suspend or remove institution-affiliated parties
who have engaged in a violation of law, an unsafe or unsound practice, or a breach of
fiduciary duty, which has caused a bank to suffer a financial loss or other damages or has
resulted in a gain to the individual, and that involves personal dishonesty or demonstrates
continuing or willful disregard for the safety and soundness of the institution.

Notwithstanding these enforcement powers, the GLB Act prohibits the Federal Reserve
Board from requiring an insurance company that is a BHC or an insurance company that
is a subsidiary of a BHC to provide capital to a depository institution subsidiary of the
BHC if the state insurance authority determines, in writing, that such a funds transfer
would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the insurance company.
Additionally, the GLB Act generally prohibits the Federal Reserve Board from taking
enforcement action against an insurance company, unless the action is necessary to
prevent or redress a practice that poses a material risk to an affiliated depository
institution or to the domestic or international payments system, and it is not reasonably
possible to protect against the material risk through action directed at the depository
institution.19

19
These provisions are codified at 12 U.S.C. 1844(g) and 12 U.S.C. 1848a, respectively.

23
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000230
RECEIVERSHIP AND LIQUIDATION

Both state insurance regulators and banking regulators have statutory requirements for
receiverships and liquidations of supervised entities. State receivership and liquidation
laws vary to some degree. For a state insurance department to be accredited by the
NAIC, a state must have laws that substantially conform to the NAIC Model
Receivership Act.

State Insurance Supervisors

Delinquency proceedings are instituted against an insurance company by a state


insurance department for the purpose of conserving, rehabilitating, reorganizing, or
liquidating the insurance company. Among the various types of delinquency that may be
permissible under state law are the following:

Conservation — This term has different meanings in different jurisdictions. The scope
of conservation efforts can vary from a seizure of certain assets to rehabilitation.

Seizure of Assets — A state’s legal or administrative provisions provide for an


insurance department to take control of an insurer’s assets, books, records, and
business premises if the insurer is domiciled in the state, in order to conserve the
company’s assets for the benefit of its policyholders and creditors.

Rehabilitation — An insurance company may be placed in a rehabilitation status by


an insurance department through a jurisdiction’s legal or administrative proceeding.
The rehabilitation process generally involves, sometimes under a court order, the
transfer of operational authority from insurance company management to a
rehabilitator with the objective of returning the company to a sound financial and
operational condition. The court order could, among other matters, direct the
rehabilitator to take possession of the assets and administer the assets and the
operations of the insurance company under the supervision of the court or under a
formal plan approved by the court with notice to the company’s affected creditors.

Liquidation — In the event that rehabilitation of an insurer is unsuccessful, the


insurance department may, through legal proceedings, place the insurer in liquidation.
The liquidation process ordinarily would include the seizure and marshalling of the
company’s assets, a determination of the company’s liabilities, and the distribution of
the assets of the insurance company under the supervision of the court to address or
redeem those liabilities.

Dissolution — An insurance department may petition a court for an order to dissolve


or terminate the corporate existence of a domestic insurance company following its
complete liquidation.

The nature, timing, and extent of regulatory action in any given troubled company
situation depends, in part, on the applicable jurisdiction’s laws and regulations to which

24
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000231
the insurance company is subject, as well as the circumstances of the particular situation.
State insurance law may use different terms to refer to essentially similar actions, and the
actions that are available to an insurance department differ among the states.

When an insurer is found to be insolvent and is ordered liquidated, the guaranty funds are
the source of last resort to provide protection for the insurer’s policyholders and
claimants. Not all policy obligations, however, are covered. For those that are covered,
statutory limits apply. Additionally, not all policyholders and claimants are covered.

Bank Supervisors

In the event that a commercial bank is formally declared insolvent by its chartering
agency (a state banking department or the OCC), the chartering agency and the applicable
federal regulator — the FRS, OCC, or the FDIC, in its supervision capacity — generally
no longer have any responsibility for supervising the bank. Federal statutes name the
FDIC as receiver and outline the process of a bank receivership and liquidation as well as
the prioritization of claims. The amount of FDIC insurance coverage of $100,000 per
depositor is uniform nationwide in the event of a bank insolvency. Deposits of larger
amounts have priority over all other non-depositor creditors.

In the event that all of a BHC’s insured depository institutions are placed into
receivership, the company is no longer a BHC, and, therefore, is no longer supervised by
the FRS. The FRS generally has no role in the liquidation of a BHC or a company that
was formerly a BHC. Such liquidations are administered in accordance with federal
bankruptcy laws.

25
BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000232
CONCLUSION

This joint initiative has advanced the insurance and banking regulators’ understanding of
each other’s approaches for identifying and supervising financially weakened institutions
and enhances coordination between the state insurance departments and the FRS,
consistent with the GLB Act mandates for supervision of FHCs. In addition, many other
efforts between the FRS and the state insurance supervisors, including the
implementation of Memoranda of Understanding now in place between most state
insurance departments and the Federal Reserve Board for sharing appropriate
confidential, supervisory information and consumer complaints, as envisioned in the
GLB Act,20 have fostered effective coordination of supervisory activities. These
accomplishments represent significant milestones in the achievement of effective
cooperation between banking and insurance regulators.

20
Other initiatives include the completion of a report mapping risks arising from insurance company
activities into the standard FRS bank supervisory risk categories. See the report by the NAIC and the
Federal Reserve System Joint Subgroup on Financial Issues, Identification and Mapping of Insurance Risks
into the Federal Reserve System’s Defined Banking Risks, dated June 10, 2003.

AIG plans $20 billion asset sell-off - paper


14 Sep, 2008, 1729 hrs IST, REUTERS

LONDON: American International Group, the world's biggest insurer, is planning a $20
billion asset sell-off as it fights to correct a slump in its shares and braces for the impact of
Hurricane Ike, a London based newspaper said. The newspaper, without citing sources, said
details of the plan could come as early as Monday.

It said assets under the hammer included Transatlantic Holdings, AIG's New York-listed
reinsurance group, and that Europe's Swiss Re and Munich Re were potential buyers. AIG
and Swiss Re could not immediately be reached for comment.

Munich Re declined to comment. A source familiar with developments said that AIG could
announce details of its turnaround plan much sooner than expected, including possible asset
sales and how it will shore up capital. Media reports on Friday said that AIG could hold an
investor call as early as Monday, and that the insurer had hired JPMorgan to advise it on
raising fresh capital.

AIG has been hit hard by the global credit crunch and its shares plunged as much as 34.5
per cent on Friday, stepping up the pressure for quick action. A portfolio of credit default
swaps AIG wrote to guarantee securities linked to subprime mortgages has triggered
cumulative losses of $18 billion over the past 3 quarters.

where to stop, so I put in some discussion of the current problems
(which may overlap with Jon's discussion of liquidity in the second

Hi Bill,

Here's the list.  It does not include all DTCC participants.  I selected major family
groups, and have added more as appropriate.  AIG is on it as of this morning.  The
settling bank information is not complete (didn't have it all).

You can filter by group (Lehman, Citigroup, etc.).

Let me know if you have an questions.  Or if you need someone else added.

Subject Pros and Cons on AIG lending

Attached are the following documents:

1.  A note describing the pros and cons of lending to AIG

2.  A spreadsheet provided by AIG detailing the firms with the largest exposures to
AIG (i.e. what firms stand to lose in the event of AIG default).  The relevant column
is "Total Exposure to AIG, Ranked".  With the exception of the "lending" column,
these figures are loss estimates.  Derivative loss estimates are derived from current
MTM provided by AIG.

3.  A presentation describing what we know on AIG subsidiaries based on publicly


available information.

 If there are questions, let us know.

Alex

From AIG CFO and Vice Chm:

The capital injection plan that AIG and NYSID outlined earlier for us is now in
serious doubt, due to withdrawal of one of the private equity investors, (b) (4)   
That plan combined private equity investment with asset sales, upstreaming of
assets from P&C insurance subs to the parent, and a "wrap" of their GICs by
(b) (4) to prevent the need to post collateral.  

In the new plan, (b) (4) would provide equity jointly with (b) (4)    We
have very few details, but on the surface, it appears to be closer to a takeover
offer.   Effectively AIG would increase their shares outstanding by more than 100%,
allowing (b) (4) to control the firm.   The offer is also contingent upon
AIG getting access to Fed lending facilities.   AIG believes the offer is not realistic --
both from an equity delusion standpoint and based on their conversations with us. 
They will keep us updated on future developments.

Call from Frankel and Willumsted tonight renewing request for FR credit.  Main
points: Expect downgrade tomorrow which will accelerate demand for collateral. 
Probably enough  liquidity to get to Weds., but not much further.  Need 50 b
liquidity.  Have 8, can get 15 more out of insurance subs, but would only be
approved if part of plan to get back to health.  Board rejected (b) (4) offer, which
he described as, in effect, 10b of equity in exchange for 60 percent of the companya
nd conditioned on access to Fed window.  (Also would fire board and upper
management.)  Board voted to authorize sale of subs if necessary to repay FR credit
(b) (5)   Two asset sales in negotiation for
combined 11-13 b, but neither are sure and both would require regualtory approvals
and hence take months. (b) (4) talking a bout 10b equity, but very vague. 
portrayed access to FR credit as necessary to enable equity raise.  Notjhing to
announce tomorrow morning.
(b) (5)

noncommital--didn't comment at all on request.  Simply said I would relay
conversation to colleagues.   Willing to talk tonight, Tim, if you think it's necessary.
Otherwise we should consult tomorrow morning.  Don

AIG, facing liquidity crunch, seeks loan from Fed

Sept. 14, 2008

NEW YORK—Insurer American International Group Inc., working to stave off rating
downgrades and shore up the capital of its holding company, has made an unprecedented
approach to the Federal Reserve seeking short-term financing, media reports said.

Chief Executive Robert Willumstad reached out to the Fed late on Sunday, according to the
Wall Street Journal and business news channel CNBC. The New York Times reported
Sunday evening that AIG was seeking $40 billion in aid to avoid a downgrade from credit
rating agencies.

The Fed normally oversees monetary policy and supervision of banks, but CNBC said AIG
was seeking the funds as a temporary measure and planned to repay the Fed with the
proceeds from asset sales.

AIG officials did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The company, until recently the world's biggest insurer by market capitalization, has been
attempting to hammer out an emergency strategic plan after its shares fell nearly 50% last
week on fears it faced a liquidity crisis.

AIG has been negotiating with various parties including officials from the New York
Insurance Department and private equity firms as it seeks ways to free up capital, raise new
capital and protect policyholders.

Regulators including New York Insurance Superintendent Eric Dinallo have been holed up
at AIG's New York offices over the past two days trying to hammer out a plan.

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000514


"We are working to craft a solution to protect the company and policyholders," said a
person from the New York Insurance Department, who asked not to be named.

Former AIG CEO Maurice "Hank" Greenberg, who ran the company for nearly four
decades, was not involved in any of the discussions, said his spokesman, Glen Rochkind.

"He repeatedly offered to assist in anyway he could," added Mr. Rochkind.

AIG, hit by $18 billion in losses over the past three quarters from guarantees it wrote on
mortgage derivatives, has had to act quickly after Standard & Poor's said on Friday it may
downgrade AIG's ratings.

Ratings downgrades could force AIG to post up to $14.5 billion more in collateral,
according to a regulatory filing last month.

Downgrades could also be detrimental to AIG's insurance business, since some policies
carry clauses that nullify a contract in the event of downgrades below a certain level.

Over the weekend, the insurer has been working on a three-part plan involving asset sales,
shifting regulated capital from the insurance operations to the holding company, and
working with private equity investors, said a person familiar with the negotiations.

Parties in capital-raising talks with AIG included buyout firms Kohlberg Kravis Roberts &
Co (KKR.UL) and J.C. Flowers & Co, another person familiar with the talks said.

An AIG spokesman earlier confirmed the company was evaluating a wide range of options,
including asset sales.

Media reports have said that one of the companies on the block was AIG's highly profitable
aircraft leasing arm, but the spokesman declined to confirm this was the case.

In late June, AIG said the unit, International Lease Finance Corp, would remain part of
AIG.

AIG was founded in China 89 years ago. In the years since, largely under Mr. Greenberg's
watch, it grew into one of the world's largest insurers, spanning 130 countries and territories
and serving 74 million customers.

Mr. Greenberg stepped down in 2005, in the midst of an accounting scandal. His successor,

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000515


Martin Sullivan, was replaced by Mr. Willumstad in June after investors grew disgruntled
over its three quarters of losses.

Greenberg owns or controls about 12% of AIG's stock, making him the largest shareholder.

Alejandro,

Please find attached some data on unsecured commercial paper outstanding and
yields for AIG Funding Inc.  AIG also sponsors two ABCP programs, and an affiliate
of AIG sponsored an SIV not included in the file.  The two ABCP programs and the
SIV combine for less commercial paper outstanding than AIG itself.  We will try to
get more info about these last three programs over the course of the morning.

As previously, this message and the data attached are internal FR - confidential. 
Please make sure to encrypt if forwarding is necessary.

AIG shares drop in premarket trading

Sept 15, 2008

NEW YORK (Reuters)—Shares of American International Group Inc fell nearly 40% in premarket trading after reports that the insurer had turned to the Federal Reserve for
$40 billion in bridge financing to ward off a liquidity crisis and ratings downgrades

The up-front cost of insuring $10 million of AIG's debt for five years jumped to $3 05 million from $1 3 million on Friday, in addition to annual payments of $500,000,
according to Markit Intraday

The insurer, which has incurred $18 billion in losses over the past three quarters from guarantees it wrote on mortgage derivatives, was hit on Friday by Standard & Poor's
putting the company's credit ratings on negative watch, indicating a possible downgrade

Over the weekend, AIG executives and New York state insurance regulators scrambled to hatch a plan that would boost AIG's liquidity

It was not clear early on Monday when AIG would reach a plan A spokesman did not immediately return a call seeking comment

AIG shares have fallen about 80% since the start of the year

Several analysts, in research reports on Monday, warned that the company is unlikely to resemble itself after a much-anticipated restructuring AIG has been considering "a
wide range of options," the company said, including selling off valuable assets

AIG, until recently the world's largest insurer, does business in 130 countries and territories around the world, selling insurance to 74 million customers worldwide

It has also an aircraft leasing arm, an asset management business and a financial products unit The latter holds a credit default swap portfolio that has triggered the large
mortgage losses

AIG shares were down $4 46, or 36 7%, at $7 68 in premarket trade They reached a 52-week high of $70 13 on Oct 9, 2007

Subject: Early reaction to the weekend's events
Date: 09/15/2008 11:07 AM
Attachments: earlytable.pdf

Attached is a table summarizing the market reaction between close of business


Friday and open on Monday to the weekend's events, including:

- Lehman's bankruptcy, the purchase of Merril Lynch by Bank of America, and


reported difficulties at AIG,
- the announcement on Sunday of enhancements of the Federal Reserve's liquidity
facilities, and
- a joint statement by a consortium of major banks creating a liquidity pool for
participant borrowing.

Rates on interest rate futures declined sharply at all maturities and nominal Treasury
yields were also sharply lower.  The two year yield was down 38 basis points, the
ten-year down 20 basis points.  Equity futures were down about 4 percent. 

Another table will be distributed later in the day.

i really don't think you're going to be able to help me at all.


but for what its worth...
i am writing a piece saying the Fed will likely seek maximum flexibility to
respond to the fast-evolving financial crisis in the first instance, rather
than cut rates immediately.
i know you can't comment on this. i just wanted to let you know anyway.
seperately, kevin sounded sceptical on extending credit to AIG - i wondered
if this was the result of being exhausted after a mad weekend or a fair
reflection of the stance at this juncture.

Subject: You are probably busy, but....
Date: 09/15/2008 12:18 PM

You said the last time we spoke to touch base if I ever have concerns...

The lack of a resolution on AIG keeps markets unsettled.


Money funds (fortunately not us) could see their NAVs at risk due to the
markdown to zero of their Lehman holdings.
Market talk about who is next.

You probably can't say...but are you hearing of any money funds in
distress due to their holdings, or ancillary price pressures?
My opinion is that the Fed should be considering "emergency easing" if
for no other reason to alleviate pricing in the money markets and more
specifically to protect from potential "breaking the buck" on the part
of some money funds out there.
The Fed could cut rates and wrap "emergency" and "temporary" language
around the move to communicate that such a move is designed to give
markets a chance to catch its breath.

Just my thoughts.

    As a follow-up to our discussion this morning, below is a quick outline for moving
forward.  For those of you that were not able to attend the meeting due to
scheduling conflicts, we spoke about three efforts -- the most immediate of which
relate to dimensioning risks posed by AIG.  The other two streams are intended to
(a) identify other non-bank intermediaries of potential concern, and (b) potential
weaknesses at banks (with emphasis on regional and smaller foreigns).  The points
for each stream are identified below.  Additionally, we'll look to have a preliminary
view on all three workstreams toward the end of today with analysis to continue
throughout the week.

AIG gets New York's help in accessing $20 billion

Sept. 15, 2008

NEW YORK (Reuters)—New York Gov. David Paterson said he and other state officials
had reached an agreement with American International Group Inc that allows the insurer
access to $20 billion of its own capital, staving off a liquidity crisis.

Under the plan, AIG will be able to shift the funds from its insurance subsidiaries to the
parent company.

AIG had worked with New York officials through the weekend to shore up capital after
rating agencies threatened downgrades. AIG's shares were down 55.6% at $5.39 after
earlier touching $3.50.

The company has posted $18 billion in cumulative losses over the past three quarters on
guarantees it wrote on mortgage-linked securities.

Gov. Paterson said he had worked with AIG in a bid to help save New York jobs, with the

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000670


insurer employing 6,000 in Manhattan and 8,600 statewide. He added that the plan was
carefully crafted to pose no risk to New York taxpayers.

New York Insurance Superintendent Eric Dinallo is appealing to the federal government on
AIG's behalf to provide it additional access to capital, Gov. Paterson said.

coming to us to deal with re-assignment of trades they had on with
Lehman.  Process is going forward---see below as I find this
amazing--why does the FED need Morgan Stanley to assess options in the
case of AIG--why not have US FED personnel work with Dinallo and co?
What am I missing here?

Why does Paulson have such a large role--what can I say

By broad line of business, AIG’s revenues break down as follows: 


Property casualty operations:  42% 
Life insurance operations:  46%  
Financial products:  8% 
Asset management:  4% 

In general, state insurance statutes allow commercial insurance underwriters to pay out a
maximum dividend amount of the greater of (1) the prior year-end net income, or (2) 10% of
the surplus as regards policyholders, without the approval of the state’s insurance regulatory
authority.  State insurance regulatory authorities have the power to approve extraordinary
dividends on a case-by-case basis.

Morgan Stanley, Goldman Bonds Drop as Bank Default Risk Surges


2008-09-15 17:21:58.140 GMT

By Abigail Moses and Bryan Keogh


Sept. 15 (Bloomberg) -- Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs
Group Inc. led a record surge in the cost of default protection
and a slump in bank bond prices after Lehman Brothers Holdings
Inc. filed for bankruptcy.
Credit-default swaps on Morgan Stanley soared to a record
and the New York-based firm's senior notes fell the most since
they were sold six month ago. Goldman's senior notes plummeted to
a record low and the cost of protecting its bonds against default
rose to an all-time high. Sellers were demanding upfront payments
for protecting American International Group Inc. and Washington
Mutual Inc. on rising concern that they would default.
Investor speculation that Lehman's bankruptcy may trigger
further takeovers or mergers roiled credit markets after the
Treasury and the Federal Reserve declined to rescue Lehman, as
they did in March with Bear Stearns Cos. Merrill Lynch & Co.
agreed to be bought by Bank of America Corp. as the credit crisis
threatened the global financial industry.
Goldman and Morgan Stanley, the two remaining major Wall
Street investment banks, ``made the same mistakes'' as Merrill
and Lehman, and ``anybody in that business is at risk,'' said
Gregory Habeeb, a portfolio manager at Calvert Asset Management
Co. in Bethesda, Maryland.
``The dangers have intensified,'' said Habeeb, who manages
$8.5 billion in fixed-income assets and doesn't own Lehman bonds.
`` There was a lesson of Bear Stearns and apparently Lehman
didn't learn it. The lesson at Bear Stearns and Lehman may have
precipitated Merrill to do something.''

Upfront Payments

Credit-default swaps on Morgan Stanley soared 189 basis


points to 453 and its senior notes now yield more than a typical
bond rated BB, or seven grades lower. Contracts on Goldman jumped
119 basis points to 318 basis points. Credit default swaps on
Merrill, the world's biggest brokerage firm, dropped after it
agreed to the Bank of America purchase.
Increased credit-market turmoil is forcing 17 financial
companies' credit-default swaps to trade upfront, meaning those
seeking protection must make an initial payment as well as
premiums, signaling rising default concern, according to CMA
Datavision.
Sellers demanded 47 percentage points upfront and 5
percentage points a year to protect the bonds of Washington
Mutual from default on concern that the biggest U.S. savings and
loan won't survive the credit crisis, according to CMA Datavision
prices in New York. That compares with an upfront cost of 40
percentage points on Sept. 12 and means it would cost $5 million
initially and $500,000 a year to protect $10 million in bonds for
five years.

AIG Bonds

The upfront cost to protect AIG bonds from default soared


16.5 percentage points to 29 percentage points after earlier
rising to 34 percentage points, CMA data show. The insurer's 5.85

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000683


percent notes due in 2018 fell 11.3 cents to 58.3 cents on the
dollar to yield 14 percent, according to Trace, the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority's bond-pricing service.
The U.S. government's decision not to bail out Lehman
reduces the ``moral hazard'' introduced when Bear Stearns was
rescued and the Bank of England nationalized mortgage lender
Northern Rock Plc, according to Juan Esteban Valencia, a credit
strategist at Societe Generale SA in London.
``The get-out-of-jail-free card turned out not to be worth
what they thought,'' said Matt King, head of quantitative credit
strategy at Citigroup Inc. in London. ``This makes it much, much
harder for financial institutions to get the financing they
need.''
Contracts on Wachovia Corp., the fourth-biggest U.S. bank,
surged 129 basis points to 582 and JPMorgan Chase & Co. rose 42
to 185, CMA data show. Merrill dropped 139 basis points to 319
basis points. Bank of America increased 53 basis points to 212.

Morgan Stanley Notes

Morgan Stanley's 6.625 percent senior unsecured notes due in


2018 fell 9.3 cents to 82.9 cents on the dollar for a yield of
9.4 percent, according to Trace. Debt rated BB on average yields
9.1 percent, according to Merrill's U.S. High-Yield BB Rated
index. Morgan Stanley's notes are rated A1 by Moody's Investors
Service and A+ by Standard & Poor's.
Goldman's 6.15 percent notes due in 2018 dropped 7.3 cents
to 88.3 cents on the dollar to yield 7.9 percent, Trace data
show. The New York-based securities firm's 6.35 percent bonds due
in 2034 fell 10.6 cents to 71.7 cents on the dollar, for a yield
of 9.3 percent.
In Europe, HSBC Holdings Plc, Europe's biggest bank, and
Barclays Plc led a jump in the cost of default protection,
driving the benchmark Markit iTraxx Financial index of 25 banks
and insurers a record 32 basis points higher to 127, according to
JPMorgan.

HSBC, Barclays

The Markit CDX North America Investment Grade Index, linked


to the bonds of 125 companies in the U.S. and Canada, rose 35.5
basis points to 186.5 as of 1:01 p.m., according to broker
Phoenix Partners Group. Earlier they traded as high as 190 basis
points.
Credit-default swaps on London based HSBC soared 22 basis
points to 93, the most ever, according to CMA Datavision prices
in London. Barclays, the U.K.'s third-biggest bank, rose 34 to
166, Zurich-based UBS AG jumped 28 to 164 and Spain's Banco
Santander surged 22 to 122.
Credit-default swaps, contracts conceived to protect
bondholders against default, pay the buyer face value in exchange
for the underlying securities or the cash equivalent should a
company fail to adhere to its debt agreements. A rise indicates
deterioration in the perception of credit quality; a decline
signals the opposite.
A basis point on a credit-default swap contract protecting
$10 million of debt from default for five years is equivalent to
$1,000 a year.

Spoke to Philly. 

AIG FSB is at a zero cap (no collateral) on the real time monitor.  The FSB was
notified and was fine with the zero cap--they have very low levels of DLOD (average
about $5,000).  The FSB does have OC 10 documents on file.  It appears that the
FSB is fairly insulated from the affiliates/parent;  had been more interactions in the
past but less so today. 
Not Responsive

In both cases, Philly indicated to the FSBs that the 23A exemption just announced
would not apply to them.  (thoughts?)

Philly will be circulating a memo shortly with this and other information.  I will
forward when I receive.

Report: Feds asking i-bank support for potential AIG options
September 15, 2008 3:57 PM ET
By Thomas Mason

The U.S. government has requested JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Goldman Sachs Group
Inc. lead a lending facility for American International Group Inc. to the tune of $70 billion
to $75 billion, The Wall Street Journal reported in a posting to its Web site on Sept. 15.

Meanwhile, the New York Times' DealBook blog reported in a posting at 1:56 p.m. Eastern
time that the Federal Reserve has hired Morgan Stanley for advice on potential options to
support the insurance behemoth. The Times said aid could include a $20 billion bridge loan.

Earlier, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson denied that the federal government would
provide a bridge loan.

"What's going on in New York has got nothing to do with any bridge loan from the
government," Paulson said at a Sept. 15 press conference. "What's going on in New York is
a private-sector effort."

(JPMC has been hired by AIG to help it explore possibilities. And Goldman represents
potential principal investors.)

Bank, Broker/Dealer & Insurance Underwriter - Operations and Strategy


Report: Feds asking i-bank support for potential AIG options
September 15, 2008 3:57 PM ET
By Thomas Mason

The U.S. government has requested JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Goldman Sachs Group
Inc. lead a lending facility for American International Group Inc. to the tune of $70 billion
to $75 billion, The Wall Street Journal reported in a posting to its Web site on Sept. 15.

Meanwhile, the New York Times' DealBook blog reported in a posting at 1:56 p.m. Eastern
time that the Federal Reserve has hired Morgan Stanley for advice on potential options to
support the insurance behemoth. The Times said aid could include a $20 billion bridge loan.

Earlier, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson denied that the federal government would
provide a bridge loan.

"What's going on in New York has got nothing to do with any bridge loan from the
government," Paulson said at a Sept. 15 press conference. "What's going on in New York is

Bush To Be Briefed By Financial Markets Working Group Tuesday


By Henry J. Pulizzi
15 September 2008
Dow Jones International News

WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--U.S. President George W. Bush on Tuesday will be


briefed on financial-market conditions by his Working Group on Financial Markets,
White House spokesman Tony Fratto said Monday.

The briefing will occur after Bush returns from a trip to Houston and Galveston,
Texas, where he will inspect areas damaged by Hurricane Ike.

The working group is led by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, and includes the
chairs of the Federal Reserve Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and
the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

Bush and Paulson met earlier Monday, as the collapse of Lehman Brothers (LEH)
and the woes of American International Group (AIG) sent shudders through markets.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed down more than 500 points, a massive
sell-off propelled by investor fears over the health of the financial system.

Though the working group meets regularly, Bush hasn't sat down with it since March
17, a day after the Fed provided a backstop for J.P. Morgan Chase's (JPM) purchase
of Bear Stearns.

Earlier Monday, Bush said the administration is working to ease any pain the market's
current problems may inflict on the economy at large.

"In the short run, adjustments in the financial markets can be painful - both for the
people concerned about their investments, and for the employees of the affected
firms," he said. "In the long run, I'm confident that our capital markets are flexible and
resilient, and can deal with these adjustments."

We detected three unsecured financial CP programs from AIG subsidiaries in our


database (the last two programs were not included in our initial report.):
1. AIG Funding Inc with $5.8 billion outstanding as of Sept. 12 ($1.9 billion coming
due over the next 7 days).
2. International Lease Finance Corporation with $3.6 billion outstanding as of Sept
12 ($1.2 billion coming due over the next 7 days).
3. American General Finance Corporation with $3.3 billion outstanding as of Sept 12
($1.1 billion coming due over the next 7 days).
On Sept. 12, these three programs paid 35 to 50 basis points above the average AA
financial rate to issue 30-day paper.  (The AA financial rate is about 40 basis points
above the average AA nonfinancial rate).

In addition, AIG or affiliates sponsor two ABCP programs and one SIV with combined

Subject: International ramifications of an AIG failure
Date: 09/15/2008 05:29 PM

Broad-brush picture of AIG's businesses:

Insurance is well over 90 percent of the consolidated business.  Roughly, 50 to 60 of


the insurance business is property-casualty (including reinsurance) and the
remainder is life & annuity.
(Breakdowns by type can only be done by revenue-type measures and the variant of
accounting rules used can affect the breakdown.) 

About one-quarter of the property-casualty business is done outside the U.S.  About
80 percent of the life & annuity business is outside the U.S.

Almost all AIG's trouble is not in the insurance subsidiaries, but is caused by it's AIG
Financial Products (AIGFP) derivatives and capital markets operation, which was
always a relatively small part by revenue.  AIG's current problem is to 1) be able to
continue to raise somewhere in its corporate structure whatever soon-rolling-over
debt has previously been raised by the holding company or AIGFP, and 2) be able to
move requisite assets to whatever of its subs need them for posting collateral.

The insurance business is essentially all done through subsidiaries, with foreign
business done through foreign subsidiaries.  All are regulated to one extent or
another.  Much like our Section 23 regulation of banks, which restricts the holding
company's ability to suck capital out of bank subs for use by other subsidiaries,
many insurance regulators limit transfers of wealth from insurance subs to other
parts of the corporate entity.

Thus the importance of the New York insurance commissioner's announcement today
that AIG could temporarily take $20 billion from U.S. insurance subs for use by other
parts of the consolidated entity.

Now turning to international ramifications of a failure, it is hard to be 100% sure of


anything because AIG naturally does not disclose all the details of its operations.  My
speculations:
(b) (5)

Finally, capitalization and liquidity: 

The equity-to-assets ratio is about 9 percent, with $96 billion of book equity. 
Recent press speculation of $19 billion in writeoffs is big enough to get one's
attention, but given that most such writeoffs would occur in AIGFP, maybe the
biggest problem is getting the capital to that entity, as noted previously.

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000790


A large fraction off their liabilities are reserves related to insurance products.  Debt
outstanding is a relatively small $176 billion relative to $1060 billion of total assets,
and only $13 billion of the debt is short-term.  However, as has been noted in the
news, AIG has significant derivative and securities lending positions and market or
rating agency sentiment can affect AIG liquidity by affecting collateral requirements
and other operational aspects of these activities.

Major insurance companies are fiercely complicated entities, in many ways much
more complicated than major investment banks.  Too bad Nini is not around
anymore.  He knew insurance.

WSJA(9/16) US Fed Officials Likely To Hold Rates Steady


Monday, September 15, 2008 5:32:12 PM (GMT-04:00)
Provided by: Dow Jones Capital Markets Report

   (From THE WALL STREET JOURNAL ASIA)


   By Sudeep Reddy and Jon Hilsenrath
  U.S. Federal Reserve officials aren't inclined to veer from plans to hold short-term
interest rates steady at Tuesday's meeting, even though financial markets put rising
odds on a quick rate cut following the weekend's drama on Wall Street.
  But concern about deteriorating markets and financial institutions could quickly
prompt a change of heart among Fed officials or lead them to use their end-of-
meeting statement to open the door to more rate cuts.
  The case for a quick rate cut: The market turmoil could add significantly to the risk
of weaker economic growth ahead. The Fed has taken pre-emptive action repeatedly
over the past year, cutting interest rates as protection against a deeper economic
downturn. The failure of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., the rapid takeover of Merrill
Lynch & Co. by Bank of America Corp. and continuing concerns about insurance
giant American International Group Inc. added to those.

  The decision depends largely on whether the market fallout, which remained
limited in the U.S. early Monday, worsens on Tuesday. Fed officials expect some
stress in markets. They are hoping it will remain manageable and not put too much
pressure on credit conditions and the overall economic outlook. But they also
recognize that markets haven't faced the failure of a major investment bank with the
financial system as interconnected as it is today.
  Futures markets on Monday put better than 50-50 odds on the Fed cutting the
current 2% federal-funds rate, at which banks lend to each other overnight, by a
quarter percentage point on Tuesday. Before the weekend, traders put the likelihood
at just 10%.
  The risk for policy makers: Cutting rates immediately could remove some of their
flexibility in case the financial crisis worsens. The Fed cut rates after the market
crash in 1987 -- a 25% drop in stocks -- and after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist
attacks. But in both cases the potential turmoil was much clearer.
  They are likely to be resistant to taking action after less than two days of trading,
when the longer-term impact on credit costs and credit availability will be unclear.
The Fed previously has inserted language in its post-meeting statement to signal a
willingness to take action between meetings if necessary. Those words could re-
emerge on Tuesday.
  At the very least, Fed officials are likely to suggest "increased uncertainty and
increased downside risks as a result of the turmoil and the likely associated
restriction of credit," UBS economists said in a note to clients.
  Fed officials will likely point to other action they have taken to calm financial
markets. Policy makers over the past year have sought to distinguish between
interest-rate policy, targeted to address economic conditions, and the Fed's lending

programs designed to ease short-term funding problems.
  The Fed expanded its lending facilities substantially on Sunday night, accepting
equities as collateral for its loans.

It may be of some interest to note that one of AIG's subsidiaries is a nontrivial


player in the FX spot market, acting as a broker for about $30 billion in FX trades
each day, and the the sub conducts most of its trades outside of the CLS
(Continuously-Linked Settlement) system, which means that if the sub failed then
there could be a noticeable disruption to the FX markets.

If one more investor asks me to bid back NR or AIG I am going to scream. This
has not been pleasant. Please make tomorrow a better day.

Repo, Fed Fund and CP markets did not have very good days today.Very chaotic,
very wide ranges, investors hunkering down cash and hiding in Tbills, Treasuries right
now. Sec lenders pulling collateral. This is total chaos right now. SOMA program up

Subject: AIG - other factors
Date: 09/15/2008 06:17 PM

After some brief conversations with senior insurance brokers at (b) (4)

P&C
- Neither have made a concrete decision on whether or not AIG is still a viable
market for their clients.  Both did  say that most clients that are in renewal of a 10/1
inception date have asked for alternative quotes and have indicated a strong
preference for the alternative.  12/31s have also asked for alternatives.

- They may consider stalling any additional LOCs or payments on loss sensitive
programs until more market clarity is available.

- Both are highly reliant on rating agencies determination.

Surety Bonds
- AIG is leading provider of surety bond for construction, infrastructure,
homebuilders, etc.   I believe that many contracts require a minimum insurer rating
on surety bond (BBB?).   Should the AIG company that provides these bonds fall
below that, a significant # of projects will be in technical default.   I'm not sure what
the process is for unwinding this.

Across risks
- b4 ndicated that for nonfinancial firms this was a large wake-up call.  Many
companies use AIG on all (many) parts of their program including P&C, 401(k),
surety bonds, life insurance programs, etc.   It is these smaller companies that the
brokers have concern over.  The larger companies may spread business and/or may
loose only one part of their program.  Smaller companies may have a lot of due
diligence to do to replace the various services provided by AIG.

- Both highlighted that their clients have been commenting on the regulatory
structure.  It was a wake-up call here as well.

NOTES ON RISK, September 15, 2008

Regional Investment Brokerage Firms

The Yahoo Finance regional investment brokerage firm index was down 3.69% for the day. However, the regional
brokerage firms fared better than the two remaining large brokers. Goldman and Morgan were each down over
12%.

BlackRock, Inc., the largest firm in the index with a market capitalization of $27 billion, was only down about 1
percent on the day accounting for much of the good performance compared to the larger firms. Investors believe
BlackRock will benefit from Lehman’s dissolution.

In addition, the regional firms may not be as heavily reliant on overnight funding as the larger firms and probably
do not keep complex structured products in inventory to the extent that the larger firms have.

There are no indications at this time that the regional brokerage firms, as a whole, are going to come under
pressure. However, a few have already encountered financial difficulty, such as ETrade and these problems have
been well known for some time.

The table below highlights capitalization and stock price changes for the regional brokerage firms:

Status of Insurance Industry

The current problems of AIG, the financial guarantors, and the private mortgage insurers are well known. This note
provides a quick update on the financial conditions of other insurance companies.

U.S. insurance companies are typically highly invested in the mortgage markets, especially commercial real estate.
Large U.S. insurance companies that have a substantial percentage mortgages in their invested assets include:
Nationwide (22.4%); CIGNA (21.2%); Thrivent (16.6%); Genworth (16.1%); Principal Financial (16.1%); and
MassMutual (16.0%). For comparison, AIG had mortgages that comprised 15.4% of its invested assets.

Residential Subprime and Alt A exposures constituted a high percentage of AIG’s equity (47%). Most insurance
companies are more exposed to commercial mortgages than residential. Some other insurance companies with high
exposures to residential mortgages included CNA (22.7%) and The Hartford (13.4%).

Insurance companies’ exposures to the CDS markets are difficult to pin down. Some evidence suggests that the
most exposed are Metlife (a financial holding company), Principal Financial, Prudential, and The Hartford. This is
in addition to the financial guarantors’ substantial exposures to credit markets.

The largest reinsurance companies seem to be in good financial shape, although they have significant declines in
profitability. The exceptions are Scottish Re, which has substantial exposure to U.S. subprime, and Bluepoint Re,
which reinsured financial guarantors. Other reinsurers are parts of larger groups with financial guarantors or
mortgage insurers and may face downgrades (Assured Guaranty, RAM Re, XL Capital, Radian Group).

Impact of Recent Financial Turmoil on Pension Funds

• No major immediate concerns are anticipated for pension funds; however; however, heightened concerns
arising from recent market events may prompt pension funds (and other fiduciaries) to selectively redeem
investments in those money market funds and “stable value” funds deemed to be more vulnerable to
liquidity or credit issues to protect their investment.
• In the longer term, effects of markdowns of pension assets may cause a plan to be underfunded, requiring a
need to make additional plan contributions. 1
• On the positive side, in aggregate, at 2007, private pension plans were fully funded; however, there have
likely been significant write-downs in fund assets since that time. According to reports, asset values of
pension funds of the top 1500 S&P companies have declined an estimated $50 - $80 billion from $1.7
trillion level at year-end 2007.
• The U.S. pension industry assets totaled approximately $6 trillion at year-end 2007, comprised of
approximately $2.6 trillion of private plan assets and $3.4 trillion of public plan assets.

Impact of Recent Financial Turmoil on Money Market Funds

• Money market funds and “stable value” funds will again be under pressure to avoid “breaking the buck.”
Liquidity and valuation issues are likely to become an issue. Banks sponsored funds are being monitoring
by the LCBO group. (See attached listing of largest money market funds and bank advised funds.)

B. Cornyn

1
Most ERISA plans are required to provide audited financials. FAS 35 requires assets to be reported at fair value.
The weakening of the PBGC’s financial condition following the stock market decline in 2001, was a driver of the
reform implemented with the Pension Protection Act of 2006, which brought about higher funding requirements;
faster closure of funding gaps; and greater use of market-to-market valuations.

Update on the Commercial Paper Market, September 15, 2008

• Market is for overnight paper. Term paper is not trading in any sector, that is, for 30, 60 or 90 day paper.
• Money market funds are worried about redemptions and therefore, they are holding off purchasing until the
end the day as opposed to purchasing in the morning.
• Elimination of Merrill and Lehman as dealers should not impact liquidity in the market as issuers direct
their commercial paper to other dealers.
• Reported draws on bank lines by issuers who did not place their full allotment of commercial paper.
• The ABCP market is beginning to struggle. Overnight paper is difficult to place for independent issuers and
foreign multi-seller ABCP conduits. Term paper did not trade.
• Fed Funds hit 8%. The expectation is that demand will return to the market for longer term paper as credit
fears subside.
• US Bank spreads remained relatively unchanged, however, few trades were completed
o Foreign banks could only fund overnight
• In the corporate market, funding was overnight with no demand for term paper.

NEWS ALERT
from The Wall Street Journal
Sept. 15, 2008

Monday evening, Standard & Poor's cut AIG's credit rating by three notches. The
downgrade means that AIG's counterparties can demand that it post an additional
$11.6 billion in collateral, according to a filing AIG made with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in August. It is not clear how quickly AIG would have to
produce those funds, but if it fails to do so, it risks defaulting on its agreements with
those counterparties.

It seems many in the market were not at all prepared for Lehman to go under. Most
expected some form of takeover or bail out (maybe not the most irrational of beliefs
given Bear Stearns and the potential for serious systemic risk).

A lot of funds facing Lehman have seen significant losses incurred on collateral on
repo’s, swaps, etc. There are also many with uncertain overall positions as a result of
uncertainty over current trades with Lehman.

Given that the UShas now showed a willingness to let a major institution fail, there is
widespread concern about many other names, and an increasing unwillingness to
lend or trade with other counterparties.

I have heard a number of funds raise concerns about whether the Merrill/BoA deal
with conclude (people who’ve just incurred serious losses on Lehman exposures are
inclined to take a negative view of things).

Similarly AIG is causing high concern – the extent of losses which would be
transmitted to the banking system through a failure is seen as a very high risk.

The money markets and FX forward markets are becoming increasingly dislocated –
US$ overnight rates being quoted somewhere between 10+20% at present.

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000867


Credit spreads across the board are continuing to blow out, and liquidity is extremely
poor.

The very very high risk decision to let Lehman fail seems to be triggering a loss of
confidence in policy makers ability to understand or fix the current problems (at least
in the US).  If this runs much further or there are other major defaults this situation
could be difficult to pull back.

I would not rule out the need for the US or even G7 to issue a generalized guarantee
on all senior bank obligations if this situation gets further out of hand to prevent a
major systemic breakdown in the banking and payments system.

Feel free to give me a shout for further.

I really think you have a major problem here.

Lehman failure has set of a huge set of chain reactions across markets causing
leverage to unwind in a disorderly manner. Many funds/corporates/hedge funds can’t
work out their positions and are scrambling to replace naked exposures created by
the failure. There seem to be differences in treatment for the unwind depending on
instruments, etc causing chaos for market exposures.

The ETF market is being shut down by the AIG problems.

The USsenior bank debt market is collapsing due to the collapse in recovery rate
assumptions as more failures are considered.

Most important is the collapse in confidence in the policymaker community among


market participants. It was a choice to let Lehman fail and trigger this situation.

The market is very close to seizing. Many market participants are close to a moving
towards short dated government bonds and avoiding bank exposure (in every way a
major run on the banking system).

There may well be a need to issue a general guarantee on bank obligations in the
manner the Scandanavian’s did in 2002 and the UK did for a short period during

BOG-- FOIA 10-251 --000874


Northern Rock’s collapse to prevent the payments system collapsing in the next few
hours.

serious problem.  I would like to consolidate the info you have put together on AIG's

If I have it right by combining this info with previous data, AIG and subs have six
programs with $17.9 billion.  $6 billion or one-third is due to mature in 7 days (5
business days?).  Mike tells us that NY said that their paper did not roll yesterday.

AIG has sold a lot of protection that is similar to the type of protection the
guarantors sold -- 'super senior' protection against CDOs.  They sold $80 billion of
'multi-sector' CDO protection, which includes the ABS CDO type stuff the guarantors
did and had taken MTM losses of $27 billion against that as of August.  As of
August, they had posted $16 billion of collateral against these MTM losses, leaving
$10 billion open exposure at counterparties.  They also have a large book of
corporate CDO related CDS protection sold and given what spreads aredoing this is
no doubt causing some MTM losses -- and growing exposures at banks -- as well.

Date: 09/16/2008 11:04 AM

AIG had its key credit rating downgraded by all three major rating
agencies after receiving a $20 billion lifeline from New York insurance
regulators. The insurer is also working to secure a lending facility
arranged by JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs of as much as $75
billion, a crucial step in light of the downgrade, which has the potential to
trigger substantial collateral payments on AIG's numerous credit-
derivative trades. Standard & Poor's warned that AIG's credit rating
could be reduced even more if it is not able to "implement further
liquidity options" and "the successful sale of at least a portion of its
business assets."

Mark:

I have the reporting-segment balance sheet information (Note 2) and information


about AIG investments (Note 3) on my desk if you want to have a look. 

There are $145 billion inl eliminations, but it is not clear if they are mainly parent-
sub or sub-sub. 

AIGFP had $115 billion in end-'07 assets and was involved to at least some extent in
offering CDS protection on CDO tranches. 

About 28% of the group's half-trillion dollar bond porttfolio was in the MBS/ABS
category, with Fair Value stated as just a few percent below Cost.

All,

Here is what we could find on AIG affiliates participation in DTCC, OCC, CME, et al
so far.    This information has been confirmed by a check of the membership lists of
these infrastructures, but we are not sure if other AIG affiliates going by a name
that is not know to us are also participants.   If anyone has additional information to
provide please let us know and we'll update this chart.

Any progress? We'll break in about 30 minutes. Anything I should pass on to the Chair at

I'll have a revised outline on legislation before then. We are already at work on a draft of
the bill language.
Thanks!!

Hi Bill,

In case you're tired of Lehman...let's talk AIG.

I am re-attaching the spreadsheet with the participant family group groups and the
systems they use just so it is clear what I am asking about.  There is no new info on
it since I sent it to you the other day.

(b)(4), (b)(5), & (b)(8)

Also, can you pull infomation on the outstanding CP in AIG's various programs?

Thanks.

Bill,

I finally managed to find someone who has access to Standard and


Poor's "Ratings Direct" database.  Here are two reports on AIG. One is
dated September 15, and the other September 16.

Please let me know if these aren't what you were expecting and if
you'd like me to continue searching.

Wall St. jumps on report government mulls AIG cash

Sept. 16, 2008

NEW YORK (Reuters)—U.S. stocks rose on Tuesday after CNBC television


reported that government money had now been put on the table in
discussions over a financial lifeline for embattled insurer American
International Group Inc.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 27.93 points, or 0.26%, to 10,945.44.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index gained 2.58 points, or 0.22%, to 1,195.28.
The NASDAQ Composite Index rose 5.21 points, or 0.24%, to 2,185.12.

Stocks had slid earlier as investors feared that without a financial lifeline,
AIG's survival might come into question as the credit squeeze weighs on the
company.

Shares of AIG, a Dow component, pared losses to trade off 18% at $3.90.
Earlier the stock had plunged by more than 40% amid uncertainty about a
potential rescue deal.

Worries about AIG were accentuated by concerns that the U.S. government
would refuse to provide a financial lifeline as it did in the case of Lehman
Brothers Holdings. The 158-year-old Wall Street icon subsequently filed for
bankruptcy protection on Monday.

thanks Krista.  Both of those are discussions of downgrades that ocurred because of
the AIG downgrade.  What would be most helpful would be a discussion of why the
parent company, AIG, was downgraded.

It's not crucial if it is turning out to be a lot of work.  The information is pretty much
covered by the wire services.

RESOLUTION

Given the unusual and exigent circumstances and pursuant to section 13(3)

of the Federal Reserve Act, the Board authorizes the Federal Reserve Bank

of New York to extend credit to American International Group, Inc. (AIG)

or any of its subsidiaries if the New York Reserve Bank obtains evidence

that the borrower is unable to secure adequate credit accommodations from

other banking institutions.

The credit should be secured to the satisfaction of the Reserve Bank, and

should not exceed a period of 24 months, subject to extension by the

Reserve Bank after consultation with the Board. The New York Reserve

Bank may, as it deems appropriate, impose conditions, such as those

described in its proposed lending facility term sheet, on its extension of

credit to AIG.

The Board approves the recommendation of the Federal Reserve Bank of

New York that the credit to AIG be extended at the credit rates in the

Reserve Bank’s proposed lending facility term sheet.
