American International Group (AIG)

Introduction to AIG Group: American International Group, Inc. (AIG) (NYSE: AIG) (New York Stock Exchange: AIG), a is an American insurance corporation. Its corporate headquarters are located in the American International Building in New York City, but will relocate to San Antonio. The British headquarters office is on Fenchurch Street in London; continental Europe operations are based in La Dfense, Paris, and its Asian headquarters office is in Hong Kong. According to the 2008 Forbes Global 2000 list, AIG was once the 18th-largest public company in the world. It was listed on the Dow Jones Industrial Average from April 8, 2004 to September 22, 2008. AIG suffered from a liquidity crisis when its credit ratings were downgraded below "AA" levels in September 2008. The United States Federal Reserve Bank on September 16, 2008, created an $85 billion credit facility to enable the company to meet increased collateral obligations consequent to the credit rating downgrade, in exchange for the issuance of a stock warrant to the Federal Reserve Bank for 79.9% of the equity of AIG. The U.S. government revised the credit facility, and eventually increased the total amount available to as much as $182.5 billion. AIG subsequently sold a number of its subsidiaries and other asset to pay down loans received, and continues to seek buyers of its assets. In March 2009, AIG faced public outrage and media and political backlash for its retention payments of $165 million. AIG employees faced hate mail and death threats, and multiple websites had sprung up attacking AIG.

History of AIG Group: AIG history dates back to 1919, when Cornelius Vander Starr established an insurance agency in Shanghai, China. Starr was the first Westerner in Shanghai to sell insurance to the Chinese, which he continued to do until AIG left China in early 1949 as Mao Zedong led the advance of the Communist People's Liberation Army on Shanghai. Starr then moved the company headquarters to its current home in New York City. In 1962, Starr gave management of the company's lagging U.S. holdings to Maurice R. "Hank" Greenberg, who shifted its focus from personal insurance to high-margin corporate coverage. Greenberg focused on selling insurance through independent brokers rather than agents to eliminate agent salaries. In 1968, Starr named Greenberg his successor. The company went public in 1969. Beginning in 2005, AIG became embroiled in a series of fraud investigations conducted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. Justice Department, and New York State Attorney General's Office. Greenberg was ousted amid an accounting scandal in February 2005; he is still fighting civil charges being pursued by New York state. The New York Attorney General's investigation led to a $1.6 billion fine for AIG and criminal charges for some of its executives. Greenberg was succeeded as CEO by Martin J. Sullivan, who had begun his career at AIG as a clerk in its London office in 1970. On June 15, 2008, after disclosure of financial losses and subsequent to a falling stock price, Sullivan resigned and was replaced by Robert B. Willumstad, Chairman of the AIG Board of Directors since 2006. Willumstad was forced by the US government to step down and was replaced by Edward M. Liddy on September 17, 2008. AIG Reports Second Quarter 2009 Results: American International Group, Inc. (AIG) today reported its first quarterly profit since the third quarter of 2007, as certain of its businesses stabilized and the companys results reflected positive valuation changes. AIG also achieved several important milestones in its restructuring program. AIG Board of Directors Elects Harvey Golub Non-Executive Chairman of the Board: American International Group, Inc.

Indian life insurance industry overview


All life insurance companies in India have to comply with the strict regulations laid out by Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDA). Therefore there is no risk in going in for private insurance players. In terms of being rated for financial strength like international players, only ICICI Prudential is rated by Fitch India at National Insurer Financial Strength Rating of AAA(Ind) with stable outlook indicating the highest claims paying ability rating. Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), the state owned behemoth, remains by far the largest player in the market. Among the private sector players, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance(JV between ICICI Bank and Prudential PLC) is the largest followed by Bajaj Allianz Life Insurance Company Limited (JV between Bajaj Group and Allianz). The private companies are coming out with better products which are more beneficial to the customer. Among such products are the ULIPs or the Unit Linked Investment Plans which offer both life cover as well as scope for savings or investment options as the customer desires.Further, these type of plans are subject to a minimum lock-in period of three years to prevent misuse of the significant tax benefits offered to such plans under the Income Tax Act. Hence, comparison of such products with mutual funds would be erroneous.

Role of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Policy in Insurance Sector.


As per the current (Mar 06) FDI norms, foreign participation in an Indian insurance company is restricted to 26.0% of its equity / ordinary share capital. The Union Budget for fiscal 2005 had recommended that the ceiling on foreign holding be increased to 49.0%.
17

The government approved the much-awaited comprehensive Insurance Bill that seeks to raise foreign direct investment (FDI) cap in private sector to 49 per cent from 26 per cent.

HOME
Home sweet Home" - a destination, any individual or a family feels very close to the heart. It is an investment of one's lifetime savings, emotional dreams and aspirations to realize their ideal home. Home signifies a set of emotions for any individual, be it pride, ownership, stability or be it a sense of belonging. It echoes the owners' sentiments "It's my house". After all, one's Home including its contents is the single most important and expensive asset that we have created for ourselves. We have learnt to value life and health sufficiently to understand the importance of insuring it. But when it comes to applying the same logic to our home (around which our lives revolve) most of us suffer a blind spot. It is only when a calamity or catastrophe strikes that we feel helpless. Home Insurance provides exactly the care one needs at such times - to safeguard against unforeseen eventualities and to preserve one's lifestyle and that too at an affordable price. You can protect your priceless investment for very little money. Assuming you have possessions worth Rs. 300,000 in your house, you can insure those possessions for as little as Rs. 3 a day - for Fire, Natural Hazards (Flood, Earthquake etc) and Burglary & Theft. TATA AIG's Home Secure takes the bother out of insuring your home. No unnecessary paperwork or awkward questions. Just smooth sailing all the way. In Home Insurance they provide various other services such as:

Fire Cover ; Pre-Packaged Coverages;


24

Business Aspects In Banking And Insurance

TATA AIG INSURANCE

Supreme Cover ; Privilege .

Fire Cover
This policy covers against fire and some special perils listed below. Its attraction is the fact that it gives you this cover for surprisingly little money. Features: What is this for? This policy covers buildings (RCC construction) and your household contents. Building value should be equal to present day cost of reconstruction, while contents should be insured for their market value.

Pre-packaged Coverages:
Perils Covered: Fire Lightning Explosion / Implosion Riot, Strike and malicious damage (RSMD) Flood, Storm, inundation Aircraft Damage Impact Damage by any rail/road vehicle or animal (other than damage by own vehicle) Landslide, rockslide Bursting and overflowing of water tanks, apparatus pipes. Missile testing operations Bush Fire Earthquake & Terrorism can be taken as add-on covers by paying extra premium

It is important that you take care to adequately insure your property. In case the actual value of insured property at the time of loss under Fire Benefit is found to be greater than the sum insured opted by you, then the claim would stand to be reduced in the same proportion.

Conclusion

Life Insurance is the fastest growing sector in India since 2000 as Government allowed Private players and FDI up to 26%. Life Insurance in India was nationalised by incorporating Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) in 1956. All private life insurance companies at that time were taken over by LIC.

Tata AIG Insurance Solutions is one of the most prestigious organizations in the business world. It employs thousands of employees and offers various opportunities to people to build a prospective career. As a leading name in the financial world, it identifies the potential and experience of the individual.

In 1993 the Government of Republic of India appointed RN Malhotra Committee to lay down a road map for privatisation of the life insurance sector.

While the committee submitted its report in 1994, it took another six years before the enabling legislation was passed in the year 2000, legislation amending the Insurance Act of 1938 and legislating the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority Act of 2000. The same year that the newly appointed insurance regulator - Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority IRDA -started issuing licenses to private life insurers.
