PART I
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ITEM 1. Business
American International Group, Inc. ("AIG"), a Delaware corporation, is a holding
company which through its subsidiaries is engaged in a broad range of insurance
and insurance-related activities in the United States and abroad. AIG's primary
activities include both general and life insurance operations. Other significant
activities include financial services, and retirement savings and asset
management. The principal general insurance company subsidiaries are American
Home Assurance Company ("American Home"), National Union Fire Insurance Company
of Pittsburgh, Pa. ("National Union"), New Hampshire Insurance Company ("New
Hampshire"), Lexington Insurance Company ("Lexington"), The Hartford Steam
Boiler Inspection and Insurance Company ("HSB"), Transatlantic Reinsurance
Company, American International Underwriters Overseas, Ltd. ("AIUO") and United
Guaranty Residential Insurance Company. Significant life insurance operations
include those conducted through American Life Insurance Company ("ALICO"),
American International Assurance Company, Limited together with American
International Assurance Company (Bermuda) Limited ("AIA"), Nan Shan Life
Insurance Company, Ltd. ("Nan Shan"), American International Reinsurance
Company, Ltd., AIG Star Life Insurance Co., Ltd., AIG Annuity Insurance Company
("AIG Annuity"), the American General Life Companies ("American General Life")
and SunAmerica Life Insurance Company ("SunAmerica Life"). AIG's financial
services operations are conducted primarily through International Lease Finance
Corporation ("ILFC"), AIG Financial Products Corp. and its subsidiaries
("AIGFP"), and American General Finance, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("AGF"),
while retirement savings and asset management operations include The Variable
Annuity Life Insurance Company ("VALIC"), SunAmerica Asset Management Corp.
("SAAMCo"), AIG SunAmerica Life Insurance Company (dba Anchor National Life
Insurance Company) and AIG Global Investment Group, Inc.
On August 29, 2001, AIG acquired American General Corporation (AGC). In
connection with the acquisition, AIG issued approximately 290 million shares of
common stock, $2.50 par value per share ("common stock") in an exchange for all
the outstanding common stock of AGC based on an exchange ratio of 0.5790 of a
share of AIG common stock for each share of AGC common stock. The acquisition
was accounted for as a pooling of interests and all prior historical financial
information presented herein has been restated to include AGC. The merger of
SunAmerica Inc., a leading company in the retirement savings and asset
accumulation business, with and into AIG became effective January 1, 1999. The
transaction was treated as a pooling of interests for accounting purposes. AIG
issued 0.855 shares of common stock in exchange for each share of SunAmerica
Inc. stock outstanding at the effective time of the merger for an aggregate
issuance of approximately 187.5 million shares. For information on AIG's
business segments, see Note 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.
All per share information herein gives retroactive effect to all stock
dividends and stock splits. As of January 31, 2002, beneficial ownership of
approximately 12.0 percent, 2.3 percent and 1.8 percent of AIG common stock, was
held by Starr International Company, Inc. ("SICO"), The Starr Foundation and
C.V. Starr & Co., Inc. ("Starr"), respectively.
At December 31, 2001, AIG and its subsidiaries had approximately 81,000
employees.

GENERAL INSURANCE OPERATIONS
AIG's general insurance subsidiaries are multiple line companies writing
substantially all lines of property and casualty insurance. One or more of these
companies is licensed to write substantially all of these lines in all states of
the United States and in approximately 70 foreign countries.
Domestic general insurance operations are comprised of the Domestic
Brokerage Group (DBG), which includes the operations of HSB; Transatlantic
Holdings, Inc. ("Transatlantic"); Personal Lines, including 21st Century
Insurance Group ("21st Century"), and Mortgage Guaranty.
AIG's primary domestic division is DBG. DBG's business is derived from
brokers in the United States and Canada and is conducted through its general
insurance subsidiaries including American Home, National Union, Lexington and
certain other insurance company subsidiaries of AIG. The risk management
division of DBG provides insurance and risk management programs for large
corporate customers. The AIG Risk Finance division designs and implements risk
financing alternatives using the insurance and financial services capabilities
of AIG. Also included are the operations of AIG Environmental which focuses
specifically on providing specialty products to clients with environmental
exposures.
DBG writes substantially all classes of business insurance accepting such
business mainly from insurance brokers. This provides DBG the opportunity to
select specialized markets and retain underwriting control. Any licensed broker
is able to submit business to DBG without the traditional agent-company
contractual relationship, but such broker usually has no authority to commit DBG
to accept a risk.
In addition to writing substantially all classes of business insurance,
including large commercial or industrial property insurance, excess liability,
inland marine, environmental, workers' compensation and excess and umbrella
coverages, DBG offers many specialized forms of insurance such as equipment
breakdown, directors and officers liability, difference-in-conditions,
kidnap-ransom, export credit and political risk, and various types of
professional errors and omissions coverages. Lexington writes surplus lines,
those risks for which conventional insurance companies do not readily provide
insurance coverage, either because of complexity or because the coverage does
not lend itself to conventional contracts.
3
Transatlantic offers reinsurance capacity on both treaty and
facultative bases. Transatlantic structures traditional and non-traditional
programs for a full range of property and casualty products with an emphasis on
specialty risk.
AIG engages in mass marketing of personal lines coverages, primarily
private passenger auto and homeowners and personal umbrella coverages,
principally through American International Insurance Company and 21st Century.
The business of United Guaranty Corporation ("UGC") and its
subsidiaries is also included in the domestic operations of AIG. The principal
business of the UGC subsidiaries is the writing of residential mortgage loan
insurance, which is guaranty insurance on conventional first mortgage loans on
single-family dwellings and condominiums. Such insurance protects lenders
against loss if borrowers default. UGC subsidiaries also write home equity and
property improvement loan insurance on loans to finance residential property
improvements, alterations and repairs and for other purposes not necessarily
related to real estate. UGC had approximately $22 billion of mortgage guarantee
risk in-force at December 31, 2001.
AIG's Foreign General insurance group accepts risks primarily
underwritten through American International Underwriters ("AIU"), a marketing
unit consisting of wholly owned agencies and insurance companies. The Foreign
General insurance group also includes business written by AIG's foreign-based
insurance subsidiaries for their own accounts. The Foreign General group uses
various marketing methods to write both business and personal lines insurance
with certain refinements for local laws, customs and needs. AIU operates in over
70 countries in Asia, the Pacific Rim, Europe, Africa, Middle East and Latin
America.
During 2001, DBG and the Foreign General insurance group accounted for
50.7 percent and 25.1 percent, respectively, of AIG's net premiums written.
AIG's general insurance company subsidiaries worldwide operate
primarily by underwriting and accepting risks for their direct account and
securing reinsurance on that portion of the risk in excess of the limit which
they wish to retain. This operating policy differs from that of many insurance
companies which will underwrite only up to their net retention limit, thereby
requiring the broker or agent to secure commitments from other underwriters for
the remainder of the gross risk amount.
The following table summarizes general insurance premiums written and
earned:

The utilization of reinsurance is closely monitored by an internal
reinsurance security committee, consisting of members of AIG's senior
management. No single reinsurer is a material reinsurer to AIG nor is AIG's
business substantially dependent upon any reinsurance contract. (See also
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations and Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
AIG is diversified both in terms of lines of business and geographic
locations. Of the general insurance lines of business, workers' compensation was
approximately 9 percent of AIG's net premiums written. This line is also
diversified geographically.
The majority of AIG's general insurance business is in the casualty
classes, which tend to involve longer periods of time for the reporting and
settling of claims. This may increase the risk and uncertainty with respect to
AIG's loss reserve development. (See also the Discussion and Analysis of
Consolidated Net Losses and Loss Expense Reserve Development and Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.)

Fox-Pitt, Kelton Inc. and reflects estimated results.
During 2001, of the direct general insurance premiums written (gross
premiums less return premiums and cancellations, excluding reinsurance assumed
and before deducting reinsurance ceded), 10.3 percent and 6.3 percent were
written in California and New York respectively. No other state accounted for
more than 5 percent of such premiums.
There was no significant adverse effect on AIG's general insurance
results of operations from the economic environments in any one state, country
or geographic region for the year ended December 31, 2001. (See also
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.)
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED NET LOSSES AND LOSS EXPENSE RESERVE
DEVELOPMENT
The reserve for net losses and loss expenses represents the accumulation of
estimates for reported losses ("case basis reserves") and provisions for losses
incurred but not reported ("IBNR"), both reduced by applicable reinsurance
recoverable. Losses and loss expenses are charged to income as incurred. AIG
discounts certain of its loss reserves principally related to workers'
compensation lines of business.
Loss reserves established with respect to foreign business are set and
monitored in terms of the respective local or functional currency. Therefore, no
assumption is included for changes in currency rates. (See also Note 1(u) of
Notes to Financial Statements.)
Management continually reviews the adequacy of established loss
reserves through the utilization of a number of analytical reserve development
techniques. Through the use of these techniques, management is able to monitor
the adequacy of its established reserves and determine appropriate assumptions
for inflation. Also, analysis of emerging specific development patterns, such as
case reserve redundancies or deficiencies and IBNR emergence, allows management
to currently determine any required adjustments. (See also Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)
The "Analysis of Consolidated Net Losses and Loss Expense Reserve
Development", which follows, presents the development of net losses and loss
expense reserves for calendar years 1991 through 2001. The upper half of the
table shows the cumulative amounts paid during successive years related to the
opening loss reserves. For example, with respect to the net losses and loss
expense reserve of $18.42 billion as of December 31, 1994, by the end of 2001
(seven years later) $15.21 billion had actually been paid in settlement of these
net loss reserves. In addition, as reflected in the lower section of the table,
the original reserve of $18.42 billion was reestimated to be $18.28 billion at
December 31, 2001. This decrease from the original estimate would generally be
a combination of a number of factors, including reserves being settled for
smaller amounts than originally estimated. The original estimates will also be
increased or decreased as more information becomes known about the individual
claims and overall claim frequency and severity patterns. The redundancy
(deficiency) depicted in the table, for any particular calendar year, shows the
aggregate change in estimates over the period of years subsequent to the
calendar year reflected at the top of the respective column heading. For
example, the deficiency of $447 million at December 31, 2001 related to
December 31, 2000 net losses and loss expense reserves of $24.95 billion
represents the cumulative amount by which reserves for 2000 and prior years
have developed deficiently during 2001. This modest deficiency that has emerged
in the last year can be attributed principally to a series of excessive jury
awards in certain liability or casualty lines of business. Market rates in
certain classes of business and expanded policy form coverages, which were
prevalent in the marketplace in the last several years of the decade,
contributed to this issue. Corrective pricing and revision of policy forms are
taking place. Tort reform is still critically needed in the U.S. although a
great deal of effort has been undertaken in individual states to correct the
abuse that has prevailed. The reserve for net losses and loss expenses with
respect to Transatlantic and 21st Century are included only in the consolidated
net losses and loss expenses commencing with the year ended December 31, 1998.
Reserve development for these operations is included only for 1998 and
subsequent periods.

(b) Does not include the effects of foreign exchange adjustments which are

table.
(c) See also Note 6(a) of Notes to Financial Statements.
Approximately 50 percent of the net losses and loss expense reserves
are paid out within two years of the date incurred. The remaining net losses and
loss expense reserves, particularly those associated with the casualty lines of
business, may extend to 20 years or more.
For further discussion regarding net reserves for losses and loss
expenses, see Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
The reserve for losses and loss expenses as reported in AIG's
Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2001, differs from the total reserve
reported in the Annual Statements filed with state insurance departments and,
where appropriate, with foreign regulatory authorities. The differences at
December 31, 2001 relate primarily to reserves for certain foreign operations.
(See also Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.)
The reserve for gross losses and loss expenses is prior to reinsurance
and represents the accumulation for reported losses and IBNR. Management reviews
the adequacy of established gross loss reserves in the manner previously
described for net loss reserves.
The "Analysis of Consolidated Gross Losses and Loss Expense Reserve
Development" table, which follows, presents the development of gross losses and
loss expense reserves for calendar years 1992 through 2001.

LIFE INSURANCE OPERATIONS
AIG's life insurance subsidiaries offer a wide range of traditional insurance
and financial and investment products. One or more of these subsidiaries is
licensed to write life insurance in all states in the United States and in over
70 foreign countries. Traditional products consist of individual and group life,
annuity, endowment and accident and health policies. Financial and investment
products consist of single premium annuity, variable annuities, guaranteed
investment contracts, universal life and pensions. (See also Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)
Life insurance operations in foreign countries comprised 74.3 percent
of life premium income and 52.1 percent of operating income in 2001. AIG
operates overseas principally through ALICO, AIA and Nan Shan. ALICO is
incorporated in Delaware and all of its business is written outside of the
United States. ALICO has operations either directly or through subsidiaries in
approximately 50 countries located in Europe, Africa, Latin America, the
Caribbean, the Middle East, and the Far East, with Japan being the largest
territory. AIG added significantly to its presence in Japan with the acquisition
of AIG Star Life Insurance Co., Ltd. in 2001, as a result of the reorganization
of Chiyoda Mutual Life Insurance Company. AIA operates primarily in Hong Kong,
Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Nan Shan operates in Taiwan. (See also Note 19
of Notes to Financial Statements.)
AIG's principal domestic life insurance subsidiaries include American
General Life, AIG Annuity and SunAmerica Life. These companies utilize multiple
distribution channels including brokerage and career and general agents to offer
traditional life products as well as financial and investment products. The
domestic life operations comprised 25.7 percent of total life premium income in
2001.
There was no significant adverse effect on AIG's life insurance results
of operations from economic environments in any one state, country or geographic
region for the year ended December 31, 2001. (See also Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)
Traditional life insurance products such as whole life and endowment
continue to be significant in the overseas
compa-
9
nies, especially in Southeast Asia, while a mixture of traditional, accident and
health and financial products are sold in Japan.
In addition to the above, AIG also has subsidiary operations in the
Philippines, Canada, Mexico, Poland, Switzerland, Puerto Rico, and conducts life
insurance business through AIUO subsidiary companies in Russia, Israel and in
certain countries in Central and South America.
The foreign life companies have over 175,000 career agents and sell their
products largely to indigenous persons in local currencies. In addition to the
agency outlets, these companies also distribute their products through direct
marketing channels, such as mass marketing, and through brokers and other
distribution outlets such as financial institutions.
The following tables summarize the life insurance operating results
presented on a major product basis for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000
and 1999. (See also Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.)

AIG's worldwide insurance investment policy places primary emphasis on
investments in high quality, fixed income securities in all of its portfolios
and, to a lesser extent, investments in marketable common stocks in order to
preserve policyholders' surplus and generate net investment income. The ability
to implement this policy is somewhat limited in certain territories as there may
be a lack of qualified long term investments or investment restrictions may be
imposed by the local regulatory authorities. (See also Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)
FINANCIAL SERVICES OPERATIONS
AIG's financial services subsidiaries engage in diversified financial products
and services including aircraft leasing, consumer and premium financing, and
banking services.
ILFC engages primarily in the acquisition of commercial jet aircraft
and the leasing and remarketing of such aircraft to airlines around the world.
Also, ILFC provides, for a fee, fleet management services to certain third-party
operators. (See also Note 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
AIGFP structures financial transactions, including long-dated interest
rate and currency swaps and structures borrowing through notes, bonds and
guaranteed investment agreements. AIGFP does not engage in trading activities
with respect to commodity contracts. (See also Note 19 of Notes to Financial
Statements.)
AIG's Consumer Finance operations include AGF as well as AIG Consumer
Finance Group, Inc. ("CFG"). (See also Note 19 of Notes to Financial
Statements.)
AGF provides a wide variety of consumer finance products, including
mortgages, consumer loans, retail sales finance and credit related insurance to
customers in the United States.
CFG, through its subsidiaries, is engaged in developing a
multi-product consumer finance business with an emphasis on emerging markets.
Together ILFC, AIGFP and AIG's consumer finance operations comprise
97.9 percent of the commissions, transaction and other fees of AIG's
consolidated financial services operations.
The following table is a summary of the revenues and operating income
of AIG's principal financial services operations for the year ended December 31,

governmental entities. Global Investment manages third-party institutional,
retail and private equity funds invested assets on a global basis, and provides
custodial services. Cap Partners organizes, and manages the invested assets of
institutional private equity investment funds and may also invest in such funds.

OTHER OPERATIONS
Small AIG subsidiaries provide insurance-related services such as adjusting
claims and marketing specialized products. AIG has several other relatively
minor subsidiaries which carry on various businesses. American International
Technology Enterprises, Inc. provides information technology and processing
services to businesses worldwide. Mt. Mansfield Company, Inc. owns and operates
the ski slopes, lifts, school and an inn located at Stowe, Vermont.
ADDITIONAL INVESTMENTS
AIG holds a 24.4 percent interest in IPC Holdings, Ltd., a reinsurance holding
company and a 23.4 percent interest in Allied World Assurance Holdings, Ltd., a
property-casualty insurance holding company. (See also Note 1(p) of Notes to
Financial Statements.)
LOCATIONS OF CERTAIN ASSETS
As of December 31, 2001, approximately 26 percent of the consolidated assets of
AIG were located in foreign countries (other than Canada), including $1.08
billion of cash and securities on deposit with foreign regulatory authorities.
Foreign operations and assets held abroad may be adversely affected by political
developments in foreign countries, including such possibilities as tax changes,
nationalization and changes in regulatory policy, as well as by consequence of
hostilities and unrest. The risks of such occurrences and their overall effect
13
upon AIG vary from country to country and cannot easily be predicted. If
expropriation or nationalization does occur, AIG's policy is to take all
appropriate measures to seek recovery of such assets. Certain of the countries
in which AIG's business is conducted have currency restrictions which generally
cause a delay in a company's ability to repatriate assets and profits. (See also
Notes 1, 2 and 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
INSURANCE REGULATION AND COMPETITION
Certain states require registration and periodic reporting by insurance
companies which are licensed in such states and are controlled by other
corporations. Applicable legislation typically requires periodic disclosure
concerning the corporation which controls the registered insurer and the other
companies in the holding company system and prior approval of intercorporate
transfers of assets (including in some instances payment of dividends by the
insurance subsidiary) within the holding company system. AIG's subsidiaries are
registered under such legislation in those states which have such
requirements.(See also Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
AIG's insurance subsidiaries, in common with other insurers, are
subject to regulation and supervision by the states and by other jurisdictions
in which they do business. Within the United States, the method of such
regulation varies but generally has its source in statutes that delegate
regulatory and supervisory powers to an insurance official. The regulation and
supervision relate primarily to approval of policy forms and rates, the
standards of solvency that must be met and maintained, including risk based
capital measurements, the licensing of insurers and their agents, the nature of
and limitations on investments, restrictions on the size of risks which may be
insured under a single policy, deposits of securities for the benefit of
policyholders, methods of accounting, periodic examinations of the affairs of
insurance companies, the form and content of reports of financial condition
required to be filed, and reserves for unearned premiums, losses and other
purposes. In general, such regulation is for the protection of policyholders
rather than security holders. (See also Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)
Risk Based Capital (RBC) is designed to measure the adequacy of an
insurer's statutory surplus in relation to the risks inherent in its business.
Thus, inadequately capitalized general and life insurance companies may be
identified.
The RBC formula develops a risk adjusted target level of adjusted
statutory capital by applying certain factors to various asset, premium and
reserve items. Higher factors are applied to more risky items and lower factors
are applied to less risky items. Thus, the target level of statutory surplus
varies not only as a result of the insurer's size, but also on the risk profile
of the insurer's operations.
The RBC Model Law provides for four incremental levels of regulatory
attention for insurers whose surplus is below the calculated RBC target. These
levels of attention range in severity from requiring the insurer to submit a
plan for corrective action to actually placing the insurer under regulatory
control.
The statutory surplus of each of AIG's domestic general and life
insurance subsidiaries exceeded their RBC standards by considerable margins as
of December 31, 2001.
To the extent that any of AIG's insurance entities would fall below
prescribed levels of surplus, it would be AIG's intention to infuse necessary
capital to support that entity.
Privacy provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act became fully effective
in 2001. These provisions establish new consumer protections regarding the
security and confidentiality of nonpublic personal information and require full
disclosure of the privacy policies of financial institutions to their consumer
customers. There is also legislation pending in the United States Congress and
various states designed to provide additional privacy protections to consumer
customers of financial institutions. These statutes and similar legislation or
regulations in other jurisdictions could impact AIG's ability to market its
products or otherwise limit the nature or scope of AIG's insurance and financial
services operations.
A substantial portion of AIG's general insurance business and a
majority of its life insurance business is carried on in foreign countries. The
degree of regulation and supervision in foreign jurisdictions varies from
minimal in some to stringent in others. Generally, AIG, as well as the
underwriting companies operating in such jurisdictions, must satisfy local
regulatory requirements. Licenses issued by foreign authorities to AIG
subsidiaries are subject to modification or revocation by such authorities, and
AIU or other AIG subsidiaries could be prevented from conducting business in
certain of the jurisdictions where they currently operate. In the past, AIU has
been allowed to modify its operations to conform with new licensing requirements
in most jurisdictions.
In addition to licensing requirements, AIG's foreign operations are
also regulated in various jurisdictions with respect to currency, policy
language and terms, amount and type of security deposits, amount and type of
reserves, amount and type of local investment and the share of profits to be
returned to policyholders on participating policies. Some foreign countries
regulate rates on various types of policies. Certain countries have established
reinsurance institutions, wholly or partially owned by the state, to which
admitted insurers are obligated to cede a portion of their business on terms
which do not always allow foreign insurers, including AIG, full compensation. In
some countries, regulations governing constitution of technical reserves and
remittance balances may hinder remittance of profits and repatriation of assets.
The insurance industry is highly competitive. Within the United States,
AIG's general insurance subsidiaries compete with approximately 3,300 other
stock companies, specialty insurance organizations, mutual companies and other
underwriting organizations. AIG's life insurance companies compete in the United
States with some 2,100 life insurance companies and other participants in
related financial service fields. Overseas, AIG subsidiaries compete for
business with foreign insurance operations of the larger U.S. insurers and local
companies in particular areas in which they are active.
14
AIG's financial services subsidiaries operate in a highly competitive
environment, both domestically and overseas. Principal sources of competition
are banks, investment banks and other non-bank financial institutions. With the
acquisition of AGC, the focus of AIG's financial services operations became more
consumer-oriented, thereby increasing the risks of regulatory supervision and
intervention.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
AIG and its subsidiaries operate from approximately 2,800 offices in the United
States, 15 offices in Canada and numerous offices in approximately 100 foreign
countries. The offices in Springfield, Illinois; Amarillo and Houston, Texas;
Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Wilmington, Delaware; Hato Rey, Puerto Rico; Tampa,
Florida; Greensboro, North Carolina; Livingston, New Jersey; Hartford,
Connecticut; Evansville, Indiana; Nashville, Tennessee; 70 Pine Street, 72 Wall
Street and 175 Water Street in New York City; and offices in approximately 30
foreign countries including Bermuda, Chile, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Japan,
England, Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan and Thailand are located in buildings
owned by AIG and its subsidiaries. The remainder of the office space utilized by
AIG subsidiaries is leased.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
AIG and its subsidiaries, in common with the insurance industry in general, are
subject to litigation, including claims for punitive damages, in the normal
course of their business. AIG does not believe that such litigation will have a
material adverse effect on its financial condition, future operating results or
liquidity. (See also the Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Net Losses and
Loss Expense Reserve Development and Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth
quarter of 2001.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This Annual Report and other publicly available documents may include, and AIG's
officers and representatives may from time to time make, statements which may
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are not historical
facts but instead represent only AIG's belief regarding future events, many of
which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside of AIG's control.
These statements may address, among other things, AIG's strategy for growth,
product development, regulatory approvals, market position, financial results
and reserves. It is possible that AIG's actual results and financial condition
may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results and financial
condition indicated in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that
could cause AIG's actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those in
the specific forward-looking statements are discussed throughout this
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations. AIG is not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such
obligations to) update or alter any forward-looking statement, whether written
or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.
OPERATIONAL REVIEW
On August 29, 2001, American General Corporation (AGC), was acquired by AIG. In
connection with the acquisition, AIG issued approximately 290 million shares of
its common stock in exchange for all the outstanding common stock of AGC based
on an exchange ratio of 0.5790 of a share of AIG common stock for each share of
AGC common stock. The acquisition was accounted for as a pooling of interests
and the accompanying financial statements have been prepared to retroactively
combine AGC's financial statements with AIG's financial statements.
On January 1, 1999, SunAmerica Inc., merged with and into AIG. AIG
issued 187.5 million shares of its common stock in exchange for all the
outstanding common stock and Class B stock of SunAmerica Inc., based on an
exchange ratio of 0.855 shares of AIG common stock for each share of SunAmerica
Inc. stock. The merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests.
AIG considers among its most important accounting policies those
policies with respect to reserves for losses and loss expenses, future policy
benefits for life and accident and health insurance contracts, deferred policy
acquisition costs, and fair value with respect to certain assets and liabilities
of certain of the subsidiaries of AIG's financial services operations. These are
the policies that require management's most significant exercise of judgment on
both a quantitative and qualitative basis. Further explanation of how management
exercises that judgment is included throughout Management's Discussion and
Analysis and in the relevant footnotes to the consolidated financial statements.
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
AIG's net income decreased 19.2 percent to $5.36 billion in 2001 as a result of
the impact of the following charges:
(a) $1.38 billion net of tax with respect to acquisition, restructuring
and related charges in connection with the acquisition of AGC (see the
discussions under "Other Operations" herein and Note 20 of Notes to Financial
Statements); and
(b) $533 million after taxes and minority interest share in World Trade
Center and related losses (WTC losses) incurred in 2001 (see the discussions
under "General Insurance Operations" and "Life Insurance Operations" herein and
Note 20 of Notes to Financial Statements).
Excluding from AIG's net income these charges, the cumulative effect of
accounting changes, realized capital gains and losses and AGC's home services
operating income, which is being managed as a "closed block", core income
increased 13.0 percent to $7.67 billion in 2001, due to increased growth and
profitability in AIG's major businesses, including General Insurance, Life
Insurance and Financial Services Operations.
The following table presents the reconciliation between net income as
reported and core income for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2001,
2000 and 1999:

GENERAL INSURANCE OPERATIONS
AIG's general insurance subsidiaries are multiple line companies writing
substantially all lines of property and casualty insurance.
Domestic general insurance operations are comprised of the Domestic
Brokerage Group (DBG), which includes The Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and
Insurance Company (HSB); Transatlantic Holdings, Inc. (Transatlantic); Personal
Lines, including 21st Century Insurance Group (21st Century), and Mortgage
Guaranty.
HSB was acquired on November 22, 2000 and consolidated into AIG's
financial statements during the fourth quarter of 2000. This acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase.
18
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
DBG is AIG's primary domestic division. DBG writes substantially all
classes of business insurance, accepting such business mainly from insurance
brokers. This provides DBG with the opportunity to select specialized markets
and retain underwriting control. Any licensed broker is able to submit business
to DBG without the traditional agent-company contractual relationship, but such
broker usually has no authority to commit DBG to accept a risk.
Transatlantic offers reinsurance capacity, both domestically and
overseas, on treaty and facultative bases. Transatlantic structures traditional
and non-traditional programs for a full range of property and casualty products
with an emphasis on specialty risk.
Personal Lines engages in the mass marketing of personal lines
insurance, primarily private passenger auto, homeowners and personal umbrella
coverages.
Mortgage Guaranty provides guaranty insurance primarily on conventional
first mortgage loans on single family dwellings and condominiums.
AIG's Foreign General insurance group accepts risks primarily
underwritten through American International Underwriters (AIU), a marketing unit
consisting of wholly owned agencies and insurance entities. The Foreign General
insurance group also includes business written by AIG's foreign-based insurance
subsidiaries for their own accounts. The Foreign General insurance group uses
various marketing methods to write both business and personal lines insurance
with certain refinements for local laws, customs and needs. AIU operates in over
70 countries in Asia, the Pacific Rim, Europe, Africa, Middle East and Latin
America. (See also Note 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)

In AIG's general insurance operations, 2001 net premiums written and
net premiums earned increased 14.7 percent and 11.2 percent, respectively, from
those of 2000. During 2001, AIG cancelled or non-renewed approximately $571
million of business worldwide that did not meet AIG's underwriting standards. In
2000, net premiums written increased 8.0 percent and net premiums earned
increased 12.0 percent when compared to 1999.
19
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Commencing in the latter part of 1999 and continuing through 2001, the
commercial property-casualty market place has experienced rate increases.
Virtually all areas of DBG have experienced rate increases. Overall, DBG's net
premiums written increased $2.26 billion or 28.5 percent in 2001 over 2000.
These increases compared to an increase of $408 million or 5.4 percent in 2000
over 1999.
Personal Lines' net premiums written decreased 2.2 percent or $56
million in 2001 over 2000, compared to an increase of 16.1 percent or $348
million in 2000 over 1999.
Foreign general insurance net premiums written increased 1.6 percent
and net premiums earned decreased 1.4 percent. Foreign general insurance
operations produced 25.1 percent of the general insurance net premiums written
in 2001, 28.4 percent in 2000 and 28.6 percent in 1999.
In comparing the foreign currency exchange rates used to translate the
results of AIG's foreign general operations during 2001 to those foreign
currency exchange rates used to translate AIG's foreign general results during
2000, the U.S. dollar strengthened in value in relation to most major foreign
currencies in which AIG transacts business. Accordingly, when foreign net
premiums written were translated into U.S. dollars for the purposes of the
preparation of the consolidated financial statements, total general insurance
net premiums written were approximately 2.8 percentage points less than they
would have been if translated utilizing those foreign currency exchange rates
which prevailed during 2000.
Because of the nature and diversity of AIG's operations and the
continuing rapid changes in the insurance industry worldwide, together with the
factors discussed above, it is difficult to assess further or project future
growth in AIG's net premiums written and reserve for losses and loss expenses.
Net premiums written are initially deferred and earned primarily on a
pro rata basis over the term of the related coverage. The net unearned premium
reserve constitutes deferred revenues which are generally earned ratably over
the policy period. Thus, the net unearned premium reserve is not fully
recognized as net premiums earned until the end of the policy period.
AIG, along with most general insurance entities, uses the loss ratio,
the expense ratio and the combined ratio as measures of performance. The loss
ratio is the sum of losses and loss expenses incurred divided by net premiums
earned. The expense ratio is statutory underwriting expenses divided by net
premiums written. The combined ratio is the sum of the loss ratio and the
expense ratio. These ratios are relative measurements that describe for every
$100 of net premiums earned or written, the cost of losses and statutory
expenses, respectively. The combined ratio presents the total cost per $100 of
premium production. A combined ratio below 100 demonstrates underwriting profit;
a combined ratio above 100 demonstrates underwriting loss. The statutory general
insurance ratios, including WTC losses in 2001, were as follows:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2001 2000 1999
================================================================================
Domestic General:
Loss Ratio 85.89 80.99 81.61

================================================================================
AIG believes that underwriting profit is the true measure of the
performance of the core business of a general insurance company.
Underwriting profit is measured in two ways: statutory underwriting
profit and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) underwriting profit.
Statutory underwriting profit is arrived at by reducing net premiums
earned by net losses and loss expenses incurred and net expenses incurred.
Statutory accounting differs from GAAP, as statutory accounting requires
immediate expense recognition and ignores the matching of revenues and expenses
as required by GAAP. That is, for statutory purposes, all expenses, most
specifically acquisition expenses, are recognized immediately, not consistent
with the revenues earned.
A basic premise of GAAP accounting is the recognition of expenses at
the same time revenues are earned, the principle of matching. Therefore, to
convert underwriting results to a GAAP basis, acquisition expenses are deferred
and recognized over the period the related premiums written are earned.
Accordingly, the statutory underwriting profit has been adjusted as a result of
acquisition expenses being deferred as required by GAAP. Thus, "adjusted
underwriting profit" is a GAAP measurement which can be viewed as gross margin
or an intermediate subtotal in calculating operating income and net income.
A major part of the discipline of a successful general insurance
company is to produce an underwriting profit, exclusive of investment income. If
underwriting is not profitable, losses incurred are a major factor. The result
is that the premiums are inadequate to pay for losses and expenses and produce a
profit; therefore, investment income must be used to cover underwriting losses.
If assets and the income therefrom are insufficient to pay claims and expenses
over extended periods, an insurance company cannot survive. For these reasons,
AIG views and manages its underwriting operations separately from its investment
operations.(See also the discussion under "Liquidity" herein.)
20
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
The adjusted underwriting profits were $88 million in 2001, $785
million in 2000 and $669 million in 1999. When WTC losses in 2001 are excluded
from losses incurred, the adjusted underwriting profit would be $857 million for
2001, a 9.2 percent increase over 2000. This increase was primarily due to the
domestic adjusted underwriting profit resulting from the disciplined
underwriting of DBG. The underwriting environment varies from country to
country, as does the degree of litigation activity. Regulation, product type and
competition have a direct impact on pricing and consequently profitability as
reflected by adjusted underwriting profit and statutory general insurance
ratios. (See also Notes 4 and 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
AIG's results reflect the net impact of incurred losses from
catastrophes approximating $867 million in 2001 (which include $769 million in
WTC losses and $50 million with respect to the Northridge earthquake, following
the unprecedented decision by the State of California to require all insurers to
reopen claims nearly eight years after the occurrence), $44 million in 2000 and
$156 million in 1999. AIG's gross incurred losses from catastrophes approximated
$2.15 billion in 2001 (which include $2.0 billion in WTC losses), $112 million
in 2000 and $472 million in 1999. While AIG believes that it has taken
appropriate steps to reduce the magnitude of possible future losses, the
occurrence of one or more catastrophic events of unanticipated frequency or
severity, such as a terrorist attack, earthquake or hurricane, that causes
insured losses could have a material adverse effect on AIG's results of
operations, liquidity or financial condition. Current techniques and models may
not accurately predict in the future the probability of catastrophic events and
the extent of the resulting losses. Moreover, one or more catastrophe losses
could impact negatively AIG's reinsurers and result in an inability of AIG to
collect reinsurance recoverables. The impact of losses caused by catastrophes
can fluctuate widely from year to year, making comparisons of recurring type
business more difficult. The pro forma table below excludes catastrophe losses
in order to present comparable results of AIG's recurring core underwriting
operations. The pro forma consolidated statutory general insurance ratios would
be as follows:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2001 2000 1999
================================================================================
Loss Ratio 75.08 75.03 74.51
Expense Ratio 21.16 21.45 20.84
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Combined Ratio 96.24 96.48 95.35
================================================================================
AIG's historic ability to maintain its combined ratio below 100 is
primarily attributable to the profitability of AIG's foreign general insurance
operations and AIG's emphasis on maintaining its disciplined underwriting,
especially in the domestic specialty markets. In addition, AIG does not seek
premium growth where rates do not adequately reflect its assessment of
exposures.
General insurance net investment income in 2001 increased 7.1 percent
when compared to 2000. In 2000, net investment income increased 7.3 percent over
1999. The growth in net investment income in each of the three years was
primarily attributable to new cash flow for investment. The new cash flow was
generated from net general insurance operating cash flow and included the
compounding of previously earned and reinvested net investment income. (See also
the discussion under "Liquidity" herein and Note 8 of Notes to Financial
Statements.)
General insurance realized capital losses were $130 million in 2001,
and realized capital gains were $38 million in 2000 and $295 million in 1999.
These realized gains and losses resulted from the ongoing investment management
of the general insurance portfolios within the overall objectives of the general
insurance operations and arose primarily from the disposition of equity
securities and available for sale fixed maturities as well as redemptions of
fixed maturities.
General insurance operating income in 2001 decreased 19.1 percent when
compared to 2000 primarily due to the WTC losses. Estimated WTC losses recorded
in 2001 amounted to $769 million, including $200 million from Transatlantic.
Adjusted general insurance operating income, which excludes WTC losses, as well
as realized capital losses, increased 7.6 percent to $3.75 billion during 2001.
General insurance operating income in 2000 increased 1.3 percent when compared
to 1999. The contribution of general insurance operating income to income before
income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of accounting changes and
excluding acquisition, restructuring and related charges was 28.1 percent in
2001 compared to 34.1 percent in 2000 and 37.0 percent in 1999.
AIG is a major purchaser of reinsurance for its general insurance
operations. AIG is cognizant of the need to exercise good judgment in the
selection and approval of both domestic and foreign companies participating in
its reinsurance programs. AIG insures risks in over 70 countries and its
reinsurance programs must be coordinated in order to provide AIG the level of
reinsurance protection that AIG desires. These reinsurance arrangements do not
relieve AIG from its direct obligations to its insureds.
AIG's general reinsurance assets amounted to $27.65 billion and
resulted from AIG's reinsurance arrangements. Thus, a credit exposure existed at
December 31, 2001 with respect to reinsurance recoverable to the extent that any
reinsurer may not be able to reimburse AIG under the terms of these reinsurance
arrangements. AIG manages its credit risk in its reinsurance relationships by
transacting with reinsurers that it considers financially sound, and when
necessary AIG holds substantial collateral in the form of funds, securities
and/or irrevocable letters of credit. This collateral can be drawn on for
amounts that remain unpaid beyond specified time periods on an individual
reinsurer basis. At December 31, 2001, approximately 43 percent of the general
reinsurance assets were from unauthorized reinsurers. In order to obtain
statutory recognition, nearly all of these balances were collateralized. The
remaining 57 percent of the general reinsurance assets were from authorized
reinsurers and over 97 percent of such balances are from reinsurers rated
A-(excellent) or better, as rated by
21
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
A.M. Best. This rating is a measure of financial strength. The terms authorized
and unauthorized pertain to regulatory categories, not creditworthiness.
Approximately $1.2 billion of the $2.0 billion in gross WTC losses is covered by
reinsurance, with approximately 99 percent of this coverage placed with
companies that are rated A or better.
AIG maintains an allowance for estimated unrecoverable reinsurance and
has been largely successful in its previous recovery efforts. At December 31,
2001, AIG had allowances for unrecoverable reinsurance approximating $75
million. At that date AIG had no significant reinsurance recoverables from any
individual reinsurer which is financially troubled (e.g., liquidated, insolvent,
in receivership or otherwise subject to formal or informal regulatory
restriction).
AIG's Reinsurance Security Department conducts ongoing detailed
assessments of the reinsurance markets and current and potential reinsurers,
both foreign and domestic. Such assessments include, but are not limited to,
identifying if a reinsurer is appropriately licensed, and has sufficient
financial capacity, and the local economic environment in which a foreign
reinsurer operates. This department also reviews the nature of the risks ceded
and the need for collateral. In addition, AIG's Credit Risk Committee reviews
the credit limits for and concentrations with any one reinsurer.
AIG enters into certain intercompany reinsurance transactions for its
general and life operations. AIG enters these transactions as a sound and
prudent business practice in order to maintain underwriting control and spread
insurance risk among various legal entities. These reinsurance agreements have
been approved by the appropriate regulatory authorities. All material
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
At December 31, 2001, the consolidated general reinsurance assets of
$27.65 billion include reinsurance recoverables for paid losses and loss
expenses of $3.82 billion and $18.90 billion with respect to the ceded reserve
for losses and loss expenses, including ceded losses incurred but not reported
(IBNR) (ceded reserves). The ceded reserves represent the accumulation of
estimates of ultimate ceded losses including provisions for ceded IBNR and loss
expenses. The methods used to determine such estimates and to establish the
resulting ceded reserves are continually reviewed and updated. Any adjustments
therefrom are reflected in income currently. It is AIG's belief that the ceded
reserves at December 31, 2001 were representative of the ultimate losses
recoverable. In the future, as the ceded reserves continue to develop to
ultimate amounts, the ultimate loss recoverable may be greater or less than the
reserves currently ceded.
At December 31, 2001, general insurance reserves for losses and loss
expenses (loss reserves) amounted to $44.79 billion. These loss reserves
represent the accumulation of estimates of ultimate losses, including IBNR, and
loss expenses and amounts of discounting primarily related to certain workers'
compensation claims. At December 31, 2001, general insurance net loss reserves
increased $944 million from prior year end to $25.90 billion. The net loss
reserves represent loss reserves reduced by reinsurance recoverables, net of an
allowance for unrecoverable reinsurance. The methods used to determine such
estimates and to establish the resulting reserves are continually reviewed and
updated. Any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in operating income
currently. It is management's belief that the general insurance net loss
reserves are adequate to cover all general insurance net losses and loss
expenses as at December 31, 2001. While AIG continually reviews the adequacy of
established loss reserves, there can be no assurance that AIG's ultimate loss
reserves will not adversely develop and materially exceed AIG's loss reserves as
of December 31, 2001. In the future, if the general insurance net loss reserves
develop deficiently, such deficiency would have an adverse impact on results of
operations.
In a very broad sense, the general loss reserves can be categorized
into two distinct groups: one group being long tail casualty lines of business.
Such lines include excess and umbrella liability, directors and officers'
liability, professional liability, medical malpractice, general liability,
products' liability, and related classes. These lines account for approximately
one-half of net losses and loss expenses. The other group is short tail lines of
business consisting principally of property lines, personal lines and certain
classes of casualty lines.
Estimation of ultimate net losses and loss expenses (net losses) for
long tail casualty lines of business is a complex process and depends on a
number of factors, including the line and volume of the business involved. In
the more recent accident years of long tail casualty lines there is limited
statistical credibility in reported net losses. That is, a relatively low
proportion of net losses would be reported claims and expenses and an even
smaller proportion would be net losses paid. A relatively high proportion of net
losses would therefore be IBNR.
A variety of actuarial methods and assumptions are normally employed to
estimate net losses for long tail casualty lines. These methods ordinarily
involve the use of loss trend factors intended to reflect the estimated annual
growth in loss costs from one accident year to the next. For the majority of
long tail casualty lines, net loss trend factors approximated four percent. Loss
trend factors reflect many items including changes in claims handling, exposure
and policy forms and current and future estimates of monetary inflation and
social inflation. Thus, many factors are implicitly considered in estimating the
year to year growth in loss costs. Therefore, AIG's carried net long tail loss
reserves are judgmentally set as well as tested for reasonableness using the
most appropriate loss trend factors for each class of business. In the
evaluation of AIG's net loss reserves, loss trend factors vary slightly,
depending on the particular class and nature of the business involved. These
factors are periodically reviewed and subsequently adjusted, as appropriate, to
reflect emerging trends which are based upon past loss experience.
Estimation of net losses for short tail business is less complex than
for long tail casualty lines. Loss cost trends for many property lines can
generally be assumed to be similar to the
22
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
growth in exposure of such lines. For example, if the fire insurance coverage
remained proportional to the actual value of the property, the growth in
property's exposure to fire loss can be approximated by the amount of insurance
purchased.
For other property and short tail casualty lines, the loss trend is
implicitly assumed to grow at the rate that reported net losses grow from one
year to the next. The concerns noted above for longer tail casualty lines with
respect to the limited statistical credibility of reported net losses generally
do not apply to shorter tail lines.
AIG continues to receive claims asserting injuries from toxic waste,
hazardous substances, and other environmental pollutants and alleged damages to
cover the cleanup costs of hazardous waste dump sites (hereinafter referred to
collectively as environmental claims) and indemnity claims asserting injuries
from asbestos. The vast majority of these asbestos and environmental claims
emanate from policies written in 1984 and prior years. AIG has established a
specialized claims unit which investigates and adjusts all such asbestos and
environmental claims. Commencing in 1985, standard policies contained an
absolute exclusion for pollution related damage. However, AIG currently
underwrites environmental impairment liability insurance on a claims made basis
and has excluded such claims from the analyses included herein.
Estimation of asbestos and environmental claims loss reserves is a
difficult process. These asbestos and environmental claims cannot be estimated
by conventional reserving techniques as previously described. Quantitative
techniques frequently have to be supplemented by subjective considerations
including managerial judgment. Significant factors which affect the trends which
influence the development of asbestos and environmental claims are the
inconsistent court resolutions and judicial interpretations which broaden the
intent of the policies and scope of coverage. The current case law can be
characterized as still evolving and there is little likelihood that any firm
direction will develop in the near future. Additionally, the exposure for
cleanup costs of hazardous waste dump sites involves issues such as allocation
of responsibility among potentially responsible parties and the government's
refusal to release parties.
In the interim, AIG and other industry members have and will continue
to litigate the broadening judicial interpretation of the policy coverage and
the liability issues. At the current time, it is not possible to determine the
future development of asbestos and environmental claims with the same degree of
reliability as is the case for other types of claims. Such development will be
affected by the extent to which courts continue to expand the intent of the
policies and the scope of the coverage, as they have in the past, as well as by
the changes in Superfund and waste dump site coverage issues. Although the
estimated liabilities for these claims are subject to a significantly greater
margin of error than for other claims, the reserves carried for these claims at
December 31, 2001 are believed to be adequate as these reserves are based on the
known facts and current law. Furthermore, as AIG's net exposure retained
relative to the gross exposure written was lower in 1984 and prior years, the
potential impact of these claims is much smaller on the net loss reserves than
on the gross loss reserves. In the future, if the environmental claims develop
deficiently, such deficiency would have an adverse impact on future results of
operations. (See the previous discussion on reinsurance collectibility herein.)
The majority of AIG's exposures for asbestos and environmental claims
are excess casualty coverages, not primary coverages. Thus, the litigation costs
are treated in the same manner as indemnity reserves. That is, litigation
expenses are included within the limits of the liability AIG incurs. Individual
significant claim liabilities, where future litigation costs are reasonably
determinable, are established on a case basis.

A.M. Best, an insurance rating agency, has developed a survival ratio
to measure the number of years it would take a company to exhaust both its
asbestos and environmental reserves for losses and loss expenses based on that
company's current level of asbestos and environmental claims payments. This is a
ratio derived by taking the current ending losses and loss expense reserves and
dividing by the average annual payments for the prior three years. Therefore,
the ratio derived is a simplistic measure of an estimate of the number of years
it would be before the current ending losses and loss expense reserves would be
paid off using recent average payments. The higher the ratio, the more years the
reserves for losses and loss expenses cover these claims payments. These ratios
are computed based on the ending reserves for losses and loss expenses over the
respective claims settlements during the fiscal year. Such payments include
indemnity payments and legal and loss adjustment payments. It should be noted,
however, that this is an extremely simplistic approach to measuring asbestos and
environmental reserve levels. Many factors, such as aggressive settlement
procedures, mix of business and level of coverage provided, have significant
impact on the amount of asbestos and environmental losses and loss expense
reserves, ultimate payments thereof and the resultant ratio.
The developed survival ratios include both involuntary and voluntary
indemnity payments. Involuntary payments are primarily attributable to court
judgments, court orders, covered claims with no coverage defenses, state
mandated cleanup costs, claims where AIG's coverage defenses are minimal, and
settlements made less than six months before the first trial setting. Also, AIG
considers all legal and loss adjustment payments as involuntary.
AIG believes voluntary indemnity payments should be excluded from the
survival ratio. The special asbestos and environmental claims unit actively
manages AIG's asbestos and environmental claims and proactively pursues early
settlement of environmental claims for all known and unknown sites. As a result,
AIG reduces its exposure to future environmental loss contingencies.
AIG's survival ratios for involuntary asbestos and environmental
claims, separately and combined, were based upon a three year average payment.
These ratios for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 were as
follows:

AIG's operations are negatively impacted under guarantee fund
assessment laws which exist in most states. As a result of operating in a state
which has guarantee fund assessment laws, a solvent insurance company may be
assessed for certain obligations arising from the insolvencies of other
insurance companies which operated in that state. AIG generally records these
assessments upon notice. Additionally, certain states permit at least a portion
of the assessed amount to be used as a credit against a company's future premium
tax liabilities. Therefore, the ultimate net assessment cannot reasonably be
estimated. The guarantee fund assessments net of credits for 2001, 2000 and 1999
were $24 million, $15 million and $15 million, respectively.
AIG is also required to participate in various involuntary pools
(principally workers' compensation business) which provide insurance coverage
for those not able to obtain such coverage in the voluntary markets. This
participation is also recorded upon notification, as these amounts cannot
reasonably be estimated.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
LIFE INSURANCE OPERATIONS
AIG's life insurance subsidiaries offer a wide range of traditional insurance
and financial and investment products. Traditional products consist of
individual and group life, annuity, endowment and accident and health policies.
Financial and investment products consist of single premium annuity, variable
annuities, guaranteed investment contracts, universal life and pensions.
AIG's three principal overseas life operations are American Life
Insurance Company (ALICO), American International Assurance Company, Limited
together with American International Assurance Company (Bermuda) Limited (AIA)
and Nan Shan Life Insurance Company, Ltd. (Nan Shan). ALICO is incorporated in
Delaware and all of its business is written outside of the United States. ALICO
has operations either directly or through subsidiaries in approximately 50
countries located in Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle
East, and the Far East, with Japan being the largest territory. AIA operates
primarily in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Nan Shan operates in
Taiwan. AIG's domestic life operations sell financial and investment type
products, as well as traditional life products. (See also Note 19 of Notes to
Financial Statements.)

American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
AIG's GAAP life premium income in 2001 represented a 12.0 percent
increase from the prior year. This compares with an increase of 10.9 percent in
2000 over 1999. Foreign life operations produced 74.3 percent, 71.9 percent and
71.0 percent of the GAAP life premium income in 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. (See also Notes 1, 4 and 6 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
The traditional life products, particularly individual life products,
were major contributors to the growth in foreign premium income. These
traditional life products, coupled with the increased distribution of financial
and investment products contributed to the growth in foreign investment income.
A mixture of traditional, accident and health and financial products are being
sold in Japan through ALICO.
As previously discussed, the U.S. dollar strengthened in value in
relation to most major foreign currencies in which AIG transacts business.
Accordingly for 2001, when foreign life premium income was translated into U.S.
dollars for purposes of the preparation of the consolidated financial
statements, total life premium income was approximately 6.4 percentage points
less than it would have been if translated utilizing exchange rates prevailing
in 2000.
Life insurance net investment income increased 10.0 percent in 2001
compared to an increase of 12.2 percent in 2000. The growth in net investment
income in 2001 and 2000 was attributable to both foreign and domestic new cash
flow for investment. The new cash flow was generated from life insurance
operations and included the compounding of previously earned and reinvested net
investment income. (See also the discussion under "Liquidity" herein.)
Life insurance realized capital losses were $254 million in 2001, $162
million in 2000 and $148 million in 1999. These realized capital losses resulted
from the ongoing investment management of the life insurance portfolios within
the overall objectives of the life insurance operations and arose primarily from
the disposition of equity securities and available for sale fixed maturities as
well as redemptions of fixed maturities.
Life insurance operating income in 2001 increased 12.1 percent to $5.41
billion compared to an increase of 14.5 percent in 2000. Estimated WTC losses
recorded in 2001 amount to $131 million. Adjusted life operating income, which
excluded such losses, AGC's home services business operating income, which is
being managed as a "closed block," as well as realized capital losses, increased
17.1 percent to $5.34 billion in 2001 when compared to the same period last
year. The contribution of life insurance operating income to income before
income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of accounting changes and
excluding acquisition, restructuring and related charges amounted to 53.2
percent in 2001 compared to 46.6 percent in 2000 and 44.8 percent in 1999. The
increase in contribution percentage was influenced by the impact of the WTC
losses on general insurance operating income and its reduced contribution to
income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of
accounting changes.
The risks associated with the traditional life and accident and health
products are underwriting risk and investment risk. The risk associated with the
financial and investment contract products is investment risk.
Underwriting risk represents the exposure to loss resulting from the
actual policy experience adversely emerging in comparison to the assumptions
made in the product pricing associated with mortality, morbidity, termination
and expenses. Both AIG's foreign and domestic life companies limit their maximum
underwriting exposure on traditional life insurance of a single life to
approximately one million dollars of coverage and $2.5 million of coverage,
respectively, by using yearly renewable term reinsurance. (See also Note 5 of
Notes to Financial Statements and the discussion under "Liquidity" herein.)
The investment risk represents the exposure to loss resulting from the
cash flows from the invested assets, primarily long-term fixed rate investments,
being less than the cash flows required to meet the obligations of the expected
policy and contract liabilities and the necessary return on investments. (See
also the discussion under "Liquidity" herein.)
To minimize its exposure to investment risk, AIG tests the cash flows
from the invested assets and the policy and contract liabilities using various
interest rate scenarios to assess whether there is a liquidity excess or
deficit. If a rebalancing of the invested assets to the policy and contract
claims became necessary and did not occur, a demand could be placed upon
liquidity. (See also the discussion under "Liquidity" herein.)
The asset-liability relationship is appropriately managed in AIG's
foreign operations, as it has been throughout AIG's history, even though certain
territories lack qualified long-term investments or there are investment
restrictions imposed by the local regulatory authorities. For example, in Japan
and several Southeast Asia territories, the duration of the investments is often
for a shorter period than the effective maturity of the related policy
liabilities. Therefore, there is a risk that the reinvestment of the proceeds at
the maturity of the initial investments may be at a yield below that of the
interest required for the accretion of the policy liabilities. At December 31,
2001, the average duration of the investment portfolio with respect to ALICO
Japan's operations was 5.4 years.
Additionally, there exists a future investment risk associated with
certain policies currently in force which will have premium receipts in the
future. That is, the investment of these future premium receipts may be at a
yield below that required to meet future policy liabilities. The anticipated
average period for the receipt and investment of these future premium receipts
with respect to ALICO Japan's operations is 6.4 years. These durations compare
with an estimated average duration with respect to ALICO Japan's operations of
10.5 years for the corresponding policy liabilities. To maintain an adequate
yield to match the interest necessary to support future policy liabilities,
constant management focus is required to reinvest the proceeds of the maturing
securities and to
27
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
invest the future premium receipts without sacrificing investment quality. To
the extent permitted under local regulation, AIG may invest in qualified
longer-term securities outside Japan to achieve a closer matching in both
duration and the required yield. AIG is able to manage any asset-liability
duration difference through maintenance of sufficient global liquidity and to
support any operational shortfall through its international financial network.
(See also the discussion under "Liquidity" herein.)
The asset-liability relationship is appropriately managed in AIG's
domestic operations, as there is ample supply of qualified long-term
investments.
AIG uses asset-liability matching as a management tool worldwide to
determine the composition of the invested assets and marketing strategies. As a
part of these strategies, AIG may determine that it is economically advantageous
to be temporarily in an unmatched position due to anticipated interest rate or
other economic changes.
FINANCIAL SERVICES OPERATIONS
AIG's financial services subsidiaries engage in diversified financial products
and services including premium financing, banking services and consumer finance
services.
International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) engages primarily in the
acquisition of commercial jet aircraft and the leasing and remarketing of such
aircraft to airlines around the world. Also, ILFC provides, for a fee, fleet
management services to certain third-party operators. (See also Note 19 of Notes
to Financial Statements.)
AIG Financial Products Corp. and its subsidiaries (AIGFP) structure
financial transactions, including long-dated interest rate and currency swaps
and structured borrowings through notes, bonds and guaranteed investment
agreements. AIGFP does not engage in trading activities with respect to
commodity contracts. AIG Trading Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (AIGTG) engage
in various commodity trading, foreign exchange trading, interest rate swaps and
market making activities. (See also the discussions under "Capital Resources"
herein and Note 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
AIG's Consumer Finance operations include American General Finance,
Inc. and its subsidiaries (AGF) as well as AIG Consumer Finance Group, Inc. and
its subsidiaries (CFG). AGF and CFG provide a wide variety of consumer finance
products, including mortgages, consumer loans, retail sales finance and credit
related insurance to customers both domestically and overseas, particularly
emerging markets. (See also Note 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
Financial services operations for the twelve month periods ending
December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 were as follows:

(a) Revenues were primarily from aircraft lease rentals.

(c) Revenues were primarily finance charges.
Financial services operating income increased 19.2 percent in 2001 over
2000. This compares with an increase of 17.1 percent in 2000 over 1999.
Financial services operating income represented 19.7 percent of AIG's
income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of
accounting changes and excluding acquisition, restructuring and related charges
in 2001. This compares to 16.2 percent and 15.2 percent in 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The increase in contribution percentage was influenced by the
impact of the WTC losses on general insurance operating income and its reduced
contribution to income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative
effect of accounting changes.
ILFC generates its revenues primarily from leasing commercial jet
aircraft to domestic and foreign airlines. Revenues also result from the
remarketing of commercial jets for its own account, for airlines and for
financial institutions. Revenues in 2001 increased 7.0 percent from 2000
compared to an 11.3 percent increase during 2000 from 1999. The revenue growth
in each year resulted primarily from the increase in flight equipment available
for operating lease, the increase in the relative cost of the leased fleet and
the increase in the relative composition of the fleet with wide bodies which
typically receive higher lease payments. Approximately 20 percent of ILFC's
operating lease revenues are derived from U.S. and Canadian airlines. During
2001, operating income increased 14.6 percent from 2000 and 10.8 percent during
2000 from 1999. ILFC finances its purchases of aircraft primarily through the
issuance of a variety of debt instruments. The composite borrowing rates at
December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 were 5.07 percent, 6.37 percent and 6.14
percent, respectively. (See also the discussions under "Capital Resources" and
"Liquidity" herein and Note 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
28
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
ILFC is exposed to operating loss and liquidity strain through
non-performance of aircraft lessees, through owning aircraft which it would be
unable to sell or re-lease at acceptable rates at lease expiration and through
committing to purchase aircraft which it would be unable to lease. ILFC manages
its lessee non-performance exposure through credit reviews and security deposit
requirements. As a result of these measures and its own contingency planning,
ILFC did not suffer any material losses from airline shutdowns in the aftermath
of the September 11 terrorist attacks, but there can be no assurance that ILFC
will successfully manage the risks relating to the impact of possible future
deterioration in the airline industry. At December 31, 2001, ILFC's fleet of 508
aircraft included 471 aircraft for operating lease, four aircraft under finance
lease and 33 managed aircraft. Approximately 80 percent of ILFC's fleet is
leased to non-U.S. and Canadian carriers, and this fleet, the most efficient in
the airline industry, continues to be in high demand from such carriers. (See
also the discussions under "Capital Resources" and "Liquidity" herein.)
AIGFP participates in the derivatives dealer market conducting,
primarily as principal, an interest rate, currency, equity and credit derivative
products business. AIGFP also enters into structured transactions including
long-dated forward foreign exchange contracts, option transactions, liquidity
facilities and investment agreements and invests in a diversified portfolio of
securities. AIGFP derives substantially all its revenues from proprietary
positions entered in connection with counterparty transactions rather than from
speculative transactions. Revenues in 2001 increased 11.6 percent from 2000
compared to a 43.3 percent increase during 2000 from 1999. During 2001,
operating income increased 16.9 percent from 2000 and increased 34.5 percent
during 2000 from 1999. As AIGFP is a transaction-oriented operation, current and
past revenues and operating results may not provide a basis for predicting
future performance. (See also the discussions under "Capital Resources,"
"Liquidity" and "Derivatives" herein and Note 19 of Notes to Financial
Statements.)
AGF derives a substantial portion of its revenues from finance charges
assessed on outstanding mortgages and finance receivables from the sub-prime
market. CFG is engaged in developing a multi-product consumer finance business
with an emphasis on emerging markets. Revenues in 2001 increased 10.1 percent
from 2000 compared to a 14.8 percent increase during 2000 from 1999. The growth
in revenues during 2001 was generally due to the growth in the average finance
receivables. During 2001, operating income increased 28.8 percent from 2000 and
15.0 percent during 2000 from 1999. The increase in operating income resulted
from the growth in finance charges and improved credit quality of the
receivables portfolio, partially offset by lower yields on finance receivables
in 2001. (See also the discussions under "Capital Resources" and "Liquidity"
herein.)
AGF is exposed to loss when contractual payments are not received. AGF
manages its collection exposure through the mix of types of loans and security
thereon. (See also Notes 8 and 9 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
RETIREMENT SAVINGS & Asset Management Operations
AIG's retirement savings & asset management operations offer a wide variety of
investment products, including variable annuities and mutual funds, as well as
investment services, including investment asset management. Such products and

OTHER OPERATIONS
Other realized capital losses amounted to $452 million, $190 million and $44
million in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Other income (deductions)-net includes AIG's equity in certain minor
majority-owned subsidiaries and certain partially-owned companies, realized
foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in substantially all currencies
and unrealized gains and losses in hyperinflationary currencies, as well as the
income and expenses of the parent holding company and other miscellaneous income
and expenses. In 2001, net deductions amounted to $708 million. In 2000 and
1999, net deductions amounted to $657 million and $600 million, respectively.
Acquisition, restructuring and related charges of $2.02 billion were incurred in
connection with the acquisition of AGC, including $654 million paid by AGC in
connection with the termination of AGC's merger agreement with Prudential plc.
Charges of $315 million in 2000 were incurred by AGC in connection with
acquisitions by AGC prior to its acquisition by AIG. (See also Note 20 of Notes
to Financial Statements.)
Income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of
accounting changes amounted to $8.14 billion in 2001. Income before income taxes
and minority interest amounted to $10.02 billion in 2000 and $9.40 billion in
1999.
In 2001, AIG recorded a provision for income taxes of $2.34 billion
compared to the provisions of $2.97 billion and $2.83 billion in 2000 and 1999,
respectively. These provisions represent effective tax rates of 28.7 percent in
2001, 29.6 percent in 2000 and 30.1 percent in 1999. (See Note 3 of Notes to
Financial Statements.)
Minority interest represents minority shareholders' equity in income of
certain majority-owned consolidated subsidiaries. Minority interest amounted to
$301 million, $413 million and $380 million in 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.
Income before the cumulative effect of accounting changes amounted to
$5.50 billion in 2001, $6.64 billion in 2000 and $6.19 billion in 1999.
Refer to "Accounting Standards" herein for details of the cumulative
effect of accounting changes.
Net income amounted to $5.36 billion in 2001, $6.64 billion in 2000 and
$6.19 billion in 1999. The decrease in 2001 and increase in 2000 in net income
over the three year period resulted from those factors described above.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2001, AIG had total capital funds of $52.15 billion and total
borrowings of $65.73 billion. At that date, $56.82 billion of such borrowings
were either not guaranteed by AIG or were matched borrowings under obligations
of guaranteed investment agreements (GIAs) or matched notes and bonds payable.

American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
During 2001, AIGFP increased the aggregate principal amount outstanding
of its notes and bonds payable to $13.92 billion. AIGFP uses the proceeds from
the issuance of notes and bonds and GIA borrowings to invest in a diversified
portfolio of securities and derivative transactions. The funds may also be
temporarily invested in securities purchased under agreements to resell. (See
also the discussions under "Operational Review", "Liquidity" and "Derivatives"
herein and Notes 1, 8, 9, 12 and 19 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
AIG Funding, Inc. (Funding), through the issuance of commercial paper,
fulfills the short-term cash requirements of AIG and its non-insurance
subsidiaries. Funding intends to continue to meet AIG's funding requirements
through the issuance of commercial paper guaranteed by AIG. This issuance of
Funding's commercial paper is subject to the approval of AIG's Board of
Directors.
ILFC and A.I. Credit Corp. (AICCO), AIG Credit Card Company (Taiwan) --
(AIGCCC-Taiwan) and AIG Finance (Taiwan) Limited -- (AIGF-Taiwan), both consumer
finance subsidiaries in Taiwan, AGC and AGF have issued commercial paper for the
funding of their own operations. At December 31, 2001, AIG did not guarantee the
commercial paper of any of its subsidiaries other than Funding and AGC. In early
2001, AICCO ceased issuing commercial paper under its program, and the agreement
which AIG had provided supporting the commercial paper was terminated; AICCO's
funding requirements are now met through Funding's program. (See also the
discussion under "Derivatives" herein and Note 9 of Notes to Financial
Statements.)
AIG and Funding have entered into syndicated revolving credit
facilities (collectively, the Facility) aggregating $1.5 billion. The Facility
consists of $1.0 billion in short-term revolving credit facilities and a $500
million five year revolving credit facility. The Facility can be used for
general corporate purposes and also to provide backup for Funding's commercial
paper programs. There are currently no borrowings outstanding under the
Facility, nor were any borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2001.
AGC and AGF have entered into unsecured bank credit facilities
aggregating $5.2 billion to support their commercial paper borrowings. There
were no borrowings under these facilities as of December 31, 2001 or currently.
AGC had $400 million in aggregate principal amount of debt securities registered
and available for issuance as of December 31, 2001. AGF had $3.2 billion in
aggregate principal amount of debt securities registered and available for
issuance at December 31, 2001. AGC uses the proceeds from the issuance of notes
and bonds for general corporate purposes. AGF uses the proceeds from the
issuance of notes and bonds for the funding of its finance receivables.
ILFC had entered into committed revolving loans and lines of credit
with commercial banks aggregating $3.2 billion to support its commercial paper
program. At December 31, 2001, there were no borrowings under these facilities.
As of February 28, 2002, these committed revolving loans and lines of credit
totalled $2.7 billion.
At December 31, 2001, ILFC had increased the aggregate principal amount
outstanding of its medium term and term notes to $11.88 billion, a net increase
of $3.18 billion, and recorded a net decline in its capital lease obligations of
$98 million and a net decrease in its commercial paper of $765 million. At
December 31, 2001, ILFC had $900 million in aggregate principal amount of debt
securities registered for issuance from time to time. In addition, ILFC had
established a Euro Medium Term Note Program for $2.0 billion, under which $771
million in notes were sold through December 31, 2001.
ILFC had an Export Credit Facility up to a maximum of $4.3 billion, for
approximately 75 aircraft to be delivered through 2001. ILFC had the right, but
was not required, to use the facility to fund 85 percent of each aircraft's
purchase price. This facility was guaranteed by various European Export Credit
Agencies. The interest rate varies from 5.75 percent to 5.90 percent on the
first 75 aircraft depending on the delivery date of the aircraft. At December
31, 2001, ILFC had $2.37 billion outstanding under this facility. Borrowings
with respect to this facility are included in Notes and Bonds Payable in the
accompanying table of borrowings.
The proceeds of ILFC's debt financing are primarily used to purchase
flight equipment, including progress payments during the construction phase. The
primary sources for the repayment of this debt and the interest expense thereon
are the cash flow from operations, proceeds from the sale of flight equipment
and the rollover and refinancing of the prior debt. (See also the discussions
under "Operational Review" and "Liquidity" herein.)
During 2001, AIG issued $137 million principal amount of Medium Term
Notes, and $177 million of previously issued notes matured. At December 31,
2001, AIG had $644 million in aggregate principal amount of debt securities
registered for issuance from time to time.
On November 9, 2001, AIG received proceeds of approximately $1 billion
from the issuance of Zero Coupon Convertible Senior Debentures Due 2031 with an
aggregate principal amount at maturity of approximately $1.52 billion.
Commencing January 1, 2002, the debentures are convertible into shares of AIG
common stock at a conversion rate of 6.0627 shares per $1,000 principal amount
of debentures if AIG common stock trades at certain levels for certain time
periods. The debentures are callable by AIG on or after November 9, 2006. Also,
holders can require AIG to repurchase these debentures once every five years.
The proceeds from the offering have been used for general corporate purposes.
AIG's capital funds increased $4.71 billion during 2001. Unrealized
appreciation of investments, net of taxes increased $1.01 billion. During 2001,
the cumulative translation adjustment loss, net of taxes, increased $344
million. The change for 2001 with respect to the unrealized appreciation of
invest-
31
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
ments, net of taxes was primarily due to the decline in domestic interest rates.
The transfer of bonds in the held to maturity, at amortized cost category to the
bonds available for sale, at market value category in accordance with the
transition provisions of FASB 133 resulted in a gain of $339 million recorded in
the statement of comprehensive income as a cumulative effect of an accounting
change adjustment. At December 31, 2001, capital funds included a cumulative
effect of an accounting change adjustment gain of $150 million. During 2001,
there was a loss of $443 million, net of taxes relating to derivative contracts
designated as cash flow hedging instruments. (See also the discussion under
"Operational Review" and "Liquidity" herein, Notes 1(x) and 8(d) of Notes to
Financial Statements and the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.)
During 2001, retained earnings increased $4.62 billion, resulting from net
income less dividends.
During 2001, AIG repurchased in the open market 13,619,900 shares of
its common stock. Included in these repurchases were approximately 10 million
shares which were exempt from pooling of interests accounting restrictions under
orders issued by the SEC following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
During 2002 through February 28, AIG repurchased in the open market an
additional 4,250,000 shares of its common stock. AIG intends to continue to buy
its common shares in the open market for general corporate purposes, including
to satisfy its obligations under various employee benefit plans.
Payments of dividends to AIG by its insurance subsidiaries are subject
to certain restrictions imposed by statutory authorities. AIG has in the past
reinvested most of its unrestricted earnings in its operations and believes
such continued reinvestment in the future will be adequate to meet any
foreseeable capital needs. However, AIG may choose from time to time to raise
additional funds through the issuance of additional securities. At December 31,
2001, there were no significant statutory or regulatory issues which would
impair AIG's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity, but there
can be no assurance that such issues will not arise in the future. To AIG's
knowledge, no AIG company is on any regulatory or similar "watch list". (See
also the discussion under "Liquidity" herein and Note 11 of Notes to Financial
Statements.)
AIG's insurance subsidiaries, in common with other insurers, are
subject to regulation and supervision by the states and jurisdictions in which
they do business. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has
developed Risk-Based Capital (RBC) requirements. RBC relates an individual
insurance company's statutory surplus to the risk inherent in its overall
operations. At December 31, 2001, the adjusted capital of each of AIG's domestic
general companies and of each of AIG's domestic life companies exceeded each of
their RBC standards by considerable margins. Federal, state or local legislation
may affect AIG's ability to operate and expand its various financial services
businesses and changes in the current laws, regulations or interpretations
thereof may have a material adverse effect on these businesses.
A substantial portion of AIG's general insurance business and a
majority of its life insurance business are conducted in foreign countries. The
degree of regulation and supervision in foreign jurisdictions varies from
minimal in some to stringent in others. Generally, AIG, as well as the
underwriting companies operating in such jurisdictions, must satisfy local
regulatory requirements. Licenses issued by foreign authorities to AIG
subsidiaries are subject to modification and revocation. Thus, AIG's insurance
subsidiaries could be prevented from conducting future business in certain of
the jurisdictions where they currently operate. AIG's international operations
include operations in various developing nations. Both current and future
foreign operations could be adversely affected by unfavorable political
developments up to and including nationalization of AIG's operations without
compensation. Adverse effects resulting from any one country may impact AIG's
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition depending on the
magnitude of the event and AIG's net financial exposure at that time in that
country.

(a) Primarily liquidity facilities provided in connection with certain

AIG uses special purposes vehicles (SPVs) primarily in connection with
certain guaranteed investment contract programs ("GIC Programs") written by its
life insurance subsidiaries, certain products provided by AIGFP, and certain
invested asset and asset management activities.
In the GIC Programs, AIG's life insurance subsidiaries (principally
SunAmerica Life Insurance Company) provide guaranteed investment contracts
(GICs) to SPVs which are not controlled by AIG. The SPVs issue notes or bonds
which are sold to third party institutional investors. Neither AIG nor the
insurance company issuing the GICs has any obligation to the investors in the
notes or bonds. The proceeds from the SPVs issuance of securities are used to
invest in the GICs. The insurance company subsidiaries use these proceeds to
invest in a diversified portfolio of securities, primarily investment grade
bonds (see also the discussion under "Liquidity: Insurance Invested Assets").
Both the assets and the liabilities arising from these GIC Programs are
presented in AIG's consolidated balance sheet. Thus, at December 31, 2001,
approximately $22 billion of Policyholders' contract deposits represented
liabilities from issuances of GICs included in these GIC Programs, offset by the
proceeds from the issuances included as insurance invested assets.
AIGFP uses SPVs as an integral part of its ongoing operations with
respect to specific structured transactions with independent third parties.
AIGFP controls and manages the assets and liabilities with respect to these
SPVs, subject to certain transaction specific limitations. These SPVs are fully
consolidated by AIG (see the discussions of AIGFP under "Operations Review:
Financial Services Operations").
AIG's insurance operations also invest in assets of SPVs. These SPVs
are established by unrelated third parties. Investments include collateralized
mortgage backed securities and similar securities backed by pools of mortgages,
consumer receivables or other assets. The investment in an SPV allows AIG's
insurance entities to purchase assets permitted by insurance regulations while
maximizing the return on these assets.
AIG provides investment management services to certain SPVs. AIG
receives management fees for these services and may take a minority ownership
interest in these SPVs. AIG services may be terminated with or without cause.
To facilitate and expand certain retirement savings and asset
management activities, AIG establishes SPVs. AIG receives fees for management of
the assets held in the SPV which support the issuance of securities such as
collateralized bond obligations sold by the SPV to independent third party
investors. These SPVs serve a variety of business purposes, including financing,
liquidity, or to facilitate independent third party management participation.
AIG has established stringent guidelines with respect to the formation
of and investment in SPVs.
LIQUIDITY
AIG's liquidity is primarily derived from the operating cash flows of its
general and life insurance operations.
At December 31, 2001, AIG's consolidated invested assets included $8.09
billion of cash and short-term investments. Consolidated net cash provided from
operating activities in 2001 amounted to $7.71 billion.
Sources of funds considered in meeting the objectives of AIG's
financial services operations include guaranteed investment agreements, issuance
of long and short-term debt, maturities and sales of securities available for
sale, securities sold under repurchase agreements, trading liabilities,
securities and spot commodities sold but not yet purchased, issuance of equity,
and cash provided from such operations. AIG's strong
33
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
capital position is integral to managing this liquidity, as it enables AIG to
raise funds in diverse markets worldwide. (See also the discussions under
"Capital Resources" herein.)
Management believes that AIG's liquid assets, its net cash provided by
operations, and access to the capital markets will enable it to meet any
foreseeable cash requirements.
The liquidity of the combined insurance operations is derived both
domestically and abroad. The combined insurance operating cash flow is derived
from two sources, underwriting operations and investment operations. In the
aggregate, AIG's insurance operations generated approximately $27.4 billion in
pre-tax cash flow during 2001. Cash flow includes periodic premium collections,
including policyholders' contract deposits, paid loss recoveries less
reinsurance premiums, losses, benefits, acquisition and operating expenses.
Generally, there is a time lag from when premiums are collected and, when as a
result of the occurrence of events specified in the policy, the losses and
benefits are paid. AIG's insurance investment operations generated approximately
$14.1 billion in investment income cash flow during 2001. Investment income cash
flow is primarily derived from interest and dividends received and includes
realized capital gains net of realized capital losses. (See also the discussions
under "Operational Review: General Insurance Operations" and -- "Life Insurance
Operations" herein.)
With respect to general insurance operations, if paid losses
accelerated beyond AIG's ability to fund such paid losses from current operating
cash flows, AIG would need to liquidate a portion of its general insurance
investment portfolio and/or arrange for financing. Such events that may cause
such a liquidity strain could be the result of several catastrophic events
occurring in a relatively short period of time. Additional strain on liquidity
could occur if the investments sold to fund such paid losses were sold into a
depressed market place and/or reinsurance recoverable on such paid losses became
uncollectible or collateral supporting such reinsurance recoverable
significantly decreased in value. (See also the discussions under "Operational
Review: General Insurance Operations" herein.)
With respect to life insurance operations, if a substantial portion of
the life insurance operations bond portfolio diminished significantly in value
and/or defaulted, AIG would need to liquidate other portions of its life
insurance investment portfolio and/or arrange financing. Such events that may
cause such a liquidity strain could be the result of economic collapse of a
nation or region in which AIG life insurance operations exist, nationalization,
terrorist acts or other such economic or political upheaval. (See also the
discussions under "Operational Review: Life Insurance Operations" herein.)
In addition to the combined insurance pre-tax operating cash flow,
AIG's insurance operations held $7.2 billion in cash and short-term investments
at December 31, 2001. The aforementioned operating cash flow and the cash and
short-term balances held provided AIG's insurance operations with a significant
amount of liquidity.
This liquidity is available, among other things, to purchase high
quality and diversified fixed income securities and to a lesser extent
marketable equity securities and to provide mortgage loans on real estate,
policy loans and collateral loans. This cash flow coupled with proceeds of
approximately $116 billion from the maturities, sales and redemptions of fixed
income securities and from the sale of equity securities was used to purchase
approximately $140 billion of fixed income securities and marketable equity
securities during 2001.
The following table is a summary of AIG's invested assets by
significant segment, including investment income due and accrued of $3.68
billion and $3.52 billion and real estate of $2.65 billion and $2.08 billion, at

Generally, insurance regulations restrict the types of assets in which
an insurance company may invest.
With respect to fixed maturities, AIG's general strategy is to invest
in high quality securities while maintaining diversification to avoid
significant exposure to issuer, industry and/or country concentrations. With
respect to general insurance, AIG's strategy is to invest in longer duration
fixed maturities to maximize the yields at the date of purchase. With respect to
life insurance, AIG's strategy is to produce cash flows required to meet
maturing insurance liabilities (See also the discussion under "Operational
Review: Life Insurance Operations" herein.)
The fair value of the fixed maturity available for sale portfolio is
subject to decline as interest rates rise and subject to increase as interest
rates decline. Such changes in fair value are presented as a component of
comprehensive income in unrealized appreciation of investments, net of taxes.
The fixed maturities held to maturity portfolio were transferred to
bonds available for sale, at market value as at January 1, 2001 as permitted and
in accordance with the transition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (FASB
133). (See also the discussion under "Accounting Standards" herein.)
At December 31, 2001, approximately 69 percent of the fixed maturities
investments were domestic securities. Approximately 30 percent of such domestic
securities were rated AAA. Approximately 9 percent were below investment grade
or not rated.
A significant portion of the foreign insurance fixed income portfolio
is rated by Moody's, Standard & Poor's (S&P) or similar foreign services.
Similar credit quality rating services are not available in all overseas
locations. AIG annually reviews the credit quality of the foreign portfolio
nonrated fixed income investments, including mortgages. At December 31, 2001,
approximately 10 percent of the foreign fixed income investments were either
rated AAA or, on the basis of AIG's internal analysis, were equivalent from a
credit standpoint to
35
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
securities so rated. Approximately 16 percent were below investment grade or not
rated at that date. A large portion of the foreign insurance fixed income
portfolio are sovereign fixed maturity securities supporting the policy
liabilities in the country of issuance.
At December 31, 2001, approximately 16 percent of the fixed maturities
portfolio was CMOs, including commercial mortgage backed securities.
Substantially all of the CMOs were investment grade and approximately 26 percent
of the CMOs were backed by various U.S. government agencies. CMOs are exposed to
interest rate risk as the duration and ultimate realized yield would be affected
by the accelerated prepayments of the underlying mortgages.
Any fixed income security may be subject to downgrade for a variety of
reasons subsequent to any balance sheet date.
AIG invests in equities for various reasons, including diversifying its
overall exposure to interest rate risk. Equity securities are subject to
declines in fair value. Such declines in fair value are presented in unrealized
appreciation of investments, net of taxes as a component of comprehensive
income.
Where declines in value of fixed income and equity securities below
amortized cost or cost are considered to be other than temporary, a charge is
reflected in income for the difference between amortized cost or cost and
estimated net realizable value.
Mortgage loans on real estate, policy and collateral loans comprised
6.6 percent of AIG's insurance invested assets at December 31, 2001. AIG's
insurance operations' holdings of real estate mortgages amounted to $10.71
billion of which 85.6 percent was domestic. At December 31, 2001, only a nominal
amount were in default. It is AIG's practice to maintain a maximum loan to value
ratio of 75 percent at loan origination. At December 31, 2001, AIG's insurance
holdings of collateral loans amounted to $667 million, all of which were
foreign. It is AIG's strategy to enter into mortgage and collateral loans as an
adjunct primarily to life insurance fixed maturity investments. AIG's policy
loans increased from $5.47 billion at December 31, 2000 to $5.79 billion at
December 31, 2001.
Short-term investments represent amounts invested in various internal
and external money market funds, time deposits and cash held.
AIG's real estate investment properties are primarily occupied by AIG's
various operations. The current market value of these properties considerably
exceeds their carrying value.
Other invested assets were primarily comprised of both foreign and
domestic private placements, limited partnerships, outside managed funds, and
collateral held with respect to AIG's securities lending program.
When permitted by regulatory authorities and when deemed necessary to
protect insurance assets, including invested assets, from adverse movements in
foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, AIG and its
insurance subsidiaries may enter into derivative transactions as end users. (See
also the discussion under "Derivatives" herein.)
In certain jurisdictions, significant regulatory and/or foreign
governmental barriers exist which may not permit the immediate free flow of
funds between insurance subsidiaries or from the insurance subsidiaries to AIG
parent. These barriers generally cause only minor delays in the outward
remittance of the funds.
AIG's insurance operations are exposed to market risk. Market risk is
the risk of loss of fair value resulting from adverse fluctuations in interest
and foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices.
Measuring potential losses in fair values has recently become the focus
of risk management efforts by many companies. Such measurements are performed
through the application of various statistical techniques. One such technique is
Value at Risk (VaR). VaR is a summary statistical measure that uses historical
interest and foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices and estimates the
volatility and correlation of each of these rates and prices to calculate the
maximum loss that could occur over a defined period of time given a certain
probability.
AIG believes that statistical models alone do not provide a reliable
method of monitoring and controlling market risk. While VaR models are
relatively sophisticated, the quantitative market risk information generated is
limited by the assumptions and parameters established in creating the related
models. Therefore, such models are tools and do not substitute for the
experience or judgment of senior management.
AIG has performed a VaR analysis to estimate the maximum potential loss
of fair value for each of AIG's insurance segments and for each market risk
within each insurance segment. In this analysis, financial instrument assets
include the domestic and foreign invested assets excluding real estate and
investment income due and accrued. Financial instrument liabilities include
reserve for losses and loss expenses, reserve for unearned premiums, future
policy benefits for life and accident and health insurance contracts and
policyholders' funds.
Due to the nature of each insurance segment, AIG manages the general
and life insurance operations separately. As a result, AIG manages separately
the invested assets of each. Accordingly, the VaR analysis was separately
performed for the general and the life insurance operations.
36
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
AIG calculated the VaR with respect to the net fair value of each of AIG's
insurance segments as of December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000. AIG uses the
historical simulation methodology which entails re-pricing all assets and
liabilities under explicit changes in market rates within a specific historical
time period. In this case, the most recent three years of historical market
information for interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity index prices
were used to construct the historical scenarios. For each scenario, each
transaction was re-priced. Portfolio, business unit and finally AIG-wide
scenario values were then calculated by netting the values of all the underlying
assets and liabilities. The final VaR number represents the maximum potential
loss incurred by these scenarios with 95% confidence (i.e., only 5% of
historical scenarios show losses greater than the VaR figure). A one month
holding period was assumed in computing the VaR figure.
The following table presents the VaR on a combined basis and of each
component of market risk for each of AIG's insurance segments as of December 31,
2001 and December 31, 2000. VaR with respect to combined operations cannot be
derived by aggregating the individual risk or segment amounts presented herein.

====================================================================================================================================
As previously discussed, the cash used for the purchase of flight
equipment is derived primarily from the proceeds of ILFC's debt financings. The
primary sources for the repayment of this debt and the interest expense thereon
are the cash flow from operations, proceeds from the sale of flight equipment
and the rollover and refinancing of the prior debt. During 2001, ILFC acquired
flight equipment costing $4.41 billion. (See also the discussion under
"Operational Review: Financial Services Operations" and Capital Resources"
herein.)
At December 31, 2001, ILFC had committed to purchase 551 aircraft
deliverable from 2002 through 2010 at an estimated aggregate purchase price of
$32.1 billion and had options to purchase 49 aircraft deliverable from 2002
through 2008 at an estimated aggregate purchase price of $3.0 billion. As of
March 19, 2002, ILFC has entered into leases for all of the aircraft to be
delivered in 2002 and 92 of 467 aircraft to be delivered subsequent to 2002.
ILFC will be required to find customers for any aircraft presently on order and
any aircraft to be ordered, and it must arrange financing for portions of the
purchase price of such equipment. In a rising interest rate environment, ILFC
negotiates higher lease rates on any new contracts. ILFC has been successful to
date both in placing its new aircraft on lease or under sales contract and
obtaining adequate financing, but there can be no assurance that such success
will continue in future environments.
ILFC is exposed to market risk and the risk of loss of fair value and
possible liquidity strain resulting from adverse fluctuations in interest rates.
As of December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, AIG statistically measured the
aforementioned loss of fair value through the application of a VaR model. In
this analysis, the net fair value of ILFC was determined using the financial
instrument assets which included the tax adjusted future flight equipment lease
revenue and the financial instrument liabilities which included the future
servicing of the current debt. The estimated impact of the current derivative
positions was also taken into account.
AIG calculated the VaR with respect to the net fair value of ILFC using
the historical simulation methodology, as previously described. As of December
31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the VaR with respect to the aforementioned net
fair value of ILFC was approximately $10 million and $11 million, respectively.
AIG's Consumer Finance operations provide a wide variety of consumer
finance products both domestically and overseas. Such products include
mortgages, consumer loans, and retail sales finance. These products are funded
through various borrowings including commercial paper and medium term notes.
AIG's Consumer Finance operations are exposed to credit risk and risk of loss
resulting from adverse fluctuations in interest rates. Over half of the loan
balance is related to real estate loans which are substantially collateralized
by the related properties.
With respect to credit losses, the allowance for finance receivable
losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to absorb anticipated credit
losses existing in that portfolio.
AIGFP's derivative transactions are carried at market value or at
estimated fair value when market prices are not readily available. AIGFP reduces
its economic risk exposure through similarly valued offsetting transactions
including swaps, trading securities, options, forwards and futures. The
38
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
estimated fair values of these transactions represent assessments of the present
value of expected future cash flows. These transactions are exposed to liquidity
risk if AIGFP were required to sell or close out the transactions prior to
maturity. AIG believes that the impact of any such limited liquidity would not
be significant to AIG's financial condition or its overall liquidity. (See also
the discussion under "Operational Review: Financial Services Operations" and
"Derivatives" herein.)
AIGFP uses the proceeds from the issuance of notes and bonds and GIA
borrowings to invest in a diversified portfolio of securities, including
securities available for sale, at market, and derivative transactions. The funds
may also be temporarily invested in securities purchased under agreements to
resell. The proceeds from the disposal of the aforementioned securities
available for sale and securities purchased under agreements to resell have been
used to fund the maturing GIAs or other AIGFP financings. (See also the
discussion under "Capital Resources" herein.)
Securities available for sale is mainly a portfolio of debt securities,
where the individual securities have varying degrees of credit risk. At December
31, 2001, the average credit rating of this portfolio was AA or the equivalent
thereto as determined through rating agencies or internal review. AIGFP has also
entered into credit derivative transactions to hedge its credit risk associated
with $182 million of these securities. There were no securities deemed below
investment grade at December 31, 2001. There have been no significant downgrades
through March 1, 2002. Securities purchased under agreements to resell are
treated as collateralized transactions. AIGFP takes possession of or obtains a
security interest in securities purchased under agreements to resell. AIGFP
further minimizes its credit risk by monitoring counterparty credit exposure
and, when AIGFP deems necessary, it requires additional collateral to be
deposited. Trading securities, at market value are marked to market daily and
are held to meet the short-term risk management objectives of AIGFP.
AIGFP is exposed to credit risk. If its securities available for sale
portfolio were to suffer significant default and the collateral held declined
significantly in value with no replacement, AIGFP could have a liquidity strain.
AIG guarantees AIGFP's debt and, as a result, is responsible for all of AIGFP's
obligations.
AIGTG conducts, as principal, market making and trading activities in
foreign exchange, and commodities, primarily precious and base metals. AIGTG
owns inventories in the commodities in which it trades and may reduce the
exposure to market risk through the use of swaps, forwards, futures and option
contracts. AIGTG uses derivatives to manage the economic exposure of its various
trading positions and transactions from adverse movements of interest rates,
foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. AIGTG supports its trading
activities largely through trading liabilities, unrealized losses on swaps,
short-term borrowings, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and
securities and commodities sold but not yet purchased. (See also the discussions
under "Capital Resources" and "Derivatives" herein.)
The gross unrealized gains and gross unrealized losses of AIGFP and
AIGTG included in the financial services assets and liabilities at December 31,
2001 were as follows:

(b) These amounts are also presented as the respective balance sheet amounts.
(c) At December 31, 2001, AIGTG's replacement values with respect to interest
rate and currency swaps were $549 million.
AIGFP's interest rate and currency risks on securities available for
sale, at market, are managed by taking offsetting positions on a security by
security basis, thereby offsetting a significant portion of the unrealized
appreciation or depreciation. At December 31, 2001, the unrealized gains and
losses remaining after the benefit of the offsets were $75 million and $67
million, respectively.
Trading securities, at market value, and securities and spot
commodities sold but not yet purchased, at market value are marked to market
daily with the unrealized gain or loss being recognized in income at that time.
These securities are held to meet the short-term risk management objectives of
AIGFP and AIGTG.
The senior management of AIG defines the policies and establishes
general operating parameters for AIGFP and AIGTG. AIG's senior management has
established various oversight committees to review the various financial market,
operational and credit issues of AIGFP and AIGTG. The senior managements of
AIGFP and AIGTG report the results of their respective operations to and review
future strategies with AIG's senior management.
AIG actively manages the exposures to limit potential losses, while
maximizing the rewards afforded by these business opportunities. In doing so,
AIG must continually manage a variety of exposures including credit, market,
liquidity, operational and legal risks.
Market risk arises principally from the uncertainty that future
earnings are exposed to potential changes in volatility, interest rates, foreign
currency exchange rates, and equity and commodity prices. AIG generally controls
its exposure to market risk by taking offsetting positions. AIG's philosophy
with respect to its financial services operations is to minimize or set
39
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
limits for open or uncovered positions that are to be carried. Credit risk
exposure is separately managed. (See the discussion on the management of credit
risk below.)
AIG's Market Risk Management Department provides detailed independent
review of AIG's market exposures, particularly those market exposures of AIGFP
and AIGTG. This department determines whether AIG's market risks, as well as
those market risks of individual subsidiaries, are within the parameters
established by AIG's senior management. Well established market risk management
techniques such as sensitivity analysis are used. Additionally, this department
verifies that specific market risks of each of certain subsidiaries are managed
and hedged by that subsidiary.
AIGFP is exposed to market risk due to changes in the level and
volatility of interest rates and the shape and slope of the yield curve. AIGFP
hedges its exposure to interest rate risk by entering into transactions such as
interest rate swaps and options and purchasing U.S. and foreign government
obligations.
AIGFP is exposed to market risk due to changes in and volatility of
foreign currency exchange rates. AIGFP hedges its foreign currency exchange risk
primarily through the use of currency swaps, options, forwards and futures.
AIGFP is exposed to market risk due to changes in the level and
volatility of equity prices which affect the value of securities or instruments
that derive their value from a particular stock, a basket of stocks or a stock
index. AIGFP reduces the risk of loss inherent in its inventory in equity
securities by entering into hedging transactions, including equity swaps and
options and purchasing U.S. and foreign government obligations.
AIGFP does not seek to manage the market risk of each of its
transactions through an individual offsetting transaction. Rather, AIGFP takes a
portfolio approach to the management of its market risk exposure. AIGFP values
its portfolio, including interest rate swaps, currency swaps, equity swaps,
swaptions, options and forwards, at market value or estimated fair value when
market values are not readily available. Unrealized gains and losses, with
respect to this portfolio are reflected in income currently. These valuations
represent an assessment of the present values of expected future cash flows of
AIGFP's transactions and may include reserves for such risks as are deemed
appropriate by AIGFP's and AIG's management. AIGFP evaluates the portfolio's
discounted cash flows with reference to current market conditions, maturities
within the portfolio and other relevant factors. The aforementioned estimated
fair values are based upon the use of valuation models. These models utilize,
among other things, market liquidity and current interest, foreign exchange and
volatility rates. AIGFP attempts to secure reliable and independent current
market prices, such as published exchange prices, external subscription services
such as from Bloomberg or Reuters or third party broker quotes for use in this
model. When such prices are not available, AIGFP uses an internal methodology
which includes interpolation or extrapolation from verifiable prices nearest to
the dates of the transactions. These valuation models are integrated into the
evaluation of the portfolio, as described above, in order to provide timely
information for the market risk management of the portfolio. Based upon this
evaluation, AIGFP determines what, if any, offsetting transactions are necessary
to reduce the market risk exposure of the portfolio. AIG manages its market risk
with a variety of transactions, including swaps, trading securities, futures and
forward contracts and other transactions as appropriate. The recorded values of
these transactions may be different than the values that might be realized if
AIGFP were required to sell or close out the transactions prior to maturity. AIG
believes that such differences are not significant to the results of operations,
financial condition or liquidity. Such differences would be immediately
recognized when the transactions are sold or closed out prior to maturity.
Additionally, depending upon the changes in interest rates and other
market movements during the day, AIGFP's system will produce reports for
management's consideration for intraday offsetting positions. Overnight, the
system generates reports which recommend the types of offsets management should
consider for the following day. Additionally, AIGFP operates in major business
centers overseas and is essentially open for business 24 hours a day. Thus, the
market exposure and offset strategies are monitored, reviewed and coordinated
around the clock. Therefore, offsetting adjustments can be made as and when
necessary from any AIGFP office in the world.
As part of its monitoring and controlling of its exposure to market
risk, AIGFP applies various testing techniques which reflect potential market
movements. These techniques vary by currency and are regularly changed to
reflect factors affecting the derivatives portfolio. In addition to the daily
monitoring, AIGFP's senior management and local risk managers conduct a weekly
review of the derivatives portfolio and existing hedges. This review includes an
examination of the portfolio's risk measures, such as aggregate option
sensitivity to movements in market variables. AIGFP's management may change
these measures to reflect their judgment and evaluation of the dynamics of the
markets. This management group will also determine whether additional or
alternative action is required in order to manage the portfolio.
All of AIGTG's market risk sensitive instruments are entered into for
trading purposes. The fair values of AIGTG's financial instruments are exposed
to market risk as a result of adverse market changes in interest rates, foreign
currency exchange rates, commodity prices and adverse changes in the liquidity
of the markets in which AIGTG trades.
AIGTG's approach to managing market risk is to establish an appropriate
offsetting position to a particular transaction or group of transactions
depending upon the extent of market risk AIGTG expects to reduce.
40
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
AIGTG's senior management has established positions and stop-loss
limits for each line of business. AIGTG's traders are required to maintain
positions within these limits. These positions are monitored during the day
either manually and/or through on-line computer systems. In addition, these
positions are reviewed by AIGTG's management. Reports which present each trading
books position and the prior day's profit and loss are reviewed by traders, head
traders and AIGTG's senior management. Based upon these and other reports,
AIGTG's senior management may determine to adjust AIGTG's risk profile.
AIGTG attempts to secure reliable current market prices, such as
published prices or third party quotes, to value its derivatives. Where such
prices are not available, AIGTG uses an internal methodology which includes
interpolation or extrapolation from verifiable prices nearest to the dates of
the transactions. The methodology may reflect interest and exchange rates,
commodity prices, volatility rates, market liquidity and other relevant factors.
Unrealized gains and losses, with respect to AIGTG's positions are reflected in
income currently.
A significant portion of AIGTG's business is transacted in liquid
markets. Certain of AIGTG's derivative product exposures are evaluated using
simulation techniques which consider such factors as changes in currency and
commodity prices, interest rates, volatility levels, market liquidity and the
effect of time.
AIGFP and AIGTG are both exposed to the risk of loss of fair value from
adverse fluctuations in interest rate and foreign currency exchange rates and
equity and commodity prices. AIG statistically measured the losses of fair value
through the application of a VaR model. AIG separately calculated the VaR with
respect to AIGFP and AIGTG, as AIG manages these operations separately.
AIGFP's and AIGTG's asset and liability portfolios for which the VaR
analyses were performed included over the counter and exchange traded
investments, derivative instruments and commodities. Since the market risk with
respect to securities available for sale, at market is substantially hedged,
segregation of market sensitive instruments into trading and other than trading
was not deemed necessary.
AIG calculated the VaR with respect to AIGFP and AIGTG as of December
31, 2001 and December 31, 2000. AIG uses the historical simulation methodology
which entails re-pricing all assets and liabilities under explicit changes in
market rates within a specific historical time period. In this case, the most
recent three years of historical market information for interest rates, foreign
exchange rates, and equity index prices were used to construct the historical
scenarios. For each scenario, each transaction was re-priced. Portfolio,
business unit and finally AIG-wide scenario values were then calculated by
netting the values of all the underlying assets and liabilities. The final VaR
number represents the maximum potential loss incurred by these scenarios with
95% confidence (i.e., only 5% of historical scenarios show losses greater than
the VaR figure).
The following table presents the VaR on a combined basis and of each
component of AIGFP's and AIGTG's market risk as of December 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000. VaR with respect to combined operations cannot be derived by
aggregating the individual risk presented herein.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
DERIVATIVES
Derivatives are financial arrangements among two or more parties. The returns of
the derivatives are linked to or "derived" from some underlying equity, debt,
commodity or other asset, liability, or index. Derivatives payments may be based
on interest rates and exchange rates and/or prices of certain securities,
certain commodities, or financial or commodity indices. The more significant
types of derivative arrangements in which AIG transacts are swaps, forwards,
futures and options.
Derivatives are generally either negotiated over the counter contracts
or standardized contracts executed on an exchange. Standardized exchange traded
derivatives include futures and options which can be readily bought or sold over
recognized security or commodity exchanges and settled daily through such
clearing houses. Negotiated over the counter derivatives include forwards, swaps
and options. Over the counter derivatives are generally not traded like exchange
traded securities and the terms of over the counter derivatives are non-standard
and unique to each contract. However, in the normal course of business, with the
agreement of the original counterparty, these contracts may be terminated early
or assigned to another counterparty.
The overwhelming majority of AIG's derivatives activities are conducted
through AIGFP and AIGTG, thus permitting AIG to participate in the derivatives
dealer market acting primarily as principal. In these derivative operations, AIG
structures agreements which generally allow its counterparties to enter into
transactions with respect to changes in interest and exchange rates, securities'
prices and certain commodities and financial or commodity indices. AIG's
customers such as corporations, financial institutions, multinational
organizations, sovereign entities, government agencies and municipalities use
derivatives to hedge their own market exposures. For example, a futures, forward
or option contract can be used to protect the customers' assets or liabilities
against price fluctuations.
A counterparty may default on any obligation to AIG, including a
derivative contract. Credit risk is a consequence of extending credit and/or
carrying trading and investment positions. Credit risk exists for a derivative
contract when that contract has a positive fair value to AIG. To help manage
this risk, the credit departments of AIGFP and AIGTG operate within the
guidelines set by the AIG Credit Risk Committee. This committee establishes the
credit policy, sets limits for counterparties and provides limits for derivative
transactions with counterparties having different credit ratings. In addition to
credit ratings, this committee takes into account other factors, including the
industry and country of the counterparty. Transactions which fall outside these
pre-established guidelines require the approval of the AIG Credit Risk
Committee. It is also AIG's policy to establish reserves for potential credit
impairment when necessary.
AIGFP and AIGTG determine the credit quality of each of their
counterparties taking into account credit ratings assigned by recognized
statistical rating organizations. If it is determined that a counterparty
requires credit enhancement, then one or more enhancement techniques will be
used. Examples of such enhancement techniques include letters of credit,
guarantees, collateral credit triggers and credit derivatives and margin
agreements.
A significant majority of AIGFP's transactions are contracted and
documented under ISDA Master Agreements. Management believes that such
agreements provide for legally enforceable set-off in the event of default.
Also, under such agreements, in connection with a counterparty desiring to
terminate a contract prior to maturity, AIGFP may be permitted to set-off its
receivables from that counterparty against AIGFP's payables to that same
counterparty arising out of all included transactions. Excluding regulated
exchange transactions, AIGTG, whenever possible, enters into netting agreements
with its counterparties which are similar in effect to those discussed above.
Discussions with respect to AIGFP's and AIGTG's counterpart credit
quality, fair value source and notional amounts follow.
COUNTERPARTY CREDIT QUALITY:
The following tables provide the counterparty credit quality amounts of AIGFP's
and AIGTG's derivatives transactions at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000.
The net replacement value most closely represents the net credit risk
to AIGFP or the maximum amount exposed to potential loss after the application
of the aforementioned strategies, netting under ISDA Master Agreements and
applying collateral held. Subsequent to the application of such credit
enhancements, the net exposure to credit risk or the net replacement value of
all interest rate, currency and equity swaps, swaptions and forward commitments
approximated $10.84 billion at December 31, 2001 and $9.51 billion at December
31, 2000. The net replacement value for futures and forward contracts
approximated $64 million at December 31, 2001 and $204 million at December 31,
2000. The net replacement value most closely represents the net credit risk to
AIGFP or the maximum amount exposed to potential loss and is used for financial
reporting purposes.

FAIR VALUE SOURCE:
The fair value sources of the net replacement values of AIGFP's derivatives
portfolio were based on valuation models. Although these models are proprietary,
the inputs were obtained from independently published exchange prices, external
subscription services' prices such as Bloomberg or Reuters or third party broker
quotes for use in these models. When such prices are not available, AIGFP uses
an internal methodology which includes interpolation or extrapolation from
verifiable prices nearest to the dates of the transactions.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
In addition to its role as derivatives dealer through AIGFP and AIGTG,
AIG and its subsidiaries, including its insurance subsidiaries, use derivatives
primarily to minimize AIG's asset-liability exposure and foreign currency and
interest rate exposures. These transactions are generally executed with AIGFP
and AIGTG as counterparty, who in turn hedge these transactions in the market
place. Thus, AIGFP and AIGTG assume the credit risk exposure.
AIG also uses derivatives to help match assets and liabilities in
several of its businesses, including its insurance operations. For example, AIG
can use currency and interest rate swaps to convert foreign-currency investment
contract liabilities into US dollar-based exposures. Thus, these liabilities are
more properly matched with US dollar assets. In life insurance, AIG uses swaps
to reduce the mismatch between long dated life insurance liabilities and shorter
dated local currency assets. Swaps also enable AIG to balance its asset and
liability durations in consumer finance operations.
AIG's Derivatives Review Committee provides an independent review of
any proposed derivative transaction. The committee examines, among other things,
the nature and purpose of the derivative transaction, its potential credit
exposure, if any, and the estimated benefits. This committee does not review
those derivative transactions entered into by AIGFP and AIGTG for their own
accounts.
Generally, AIG conducts its businesses in the currencies of the local
operating environment. Thus, exchange gains or losses occur when AIG's foreign
currency net investment is affected by changes in the foreign exchange rates
relative to the U.S. dollar from one reporting period to the next.
Legal risk arises from the uncertainty of the enforceability, through
legal or judicial processes, of the obligations of AIG's clients and
counterparties, including contractual provisions intended to reduce credit
exposure by providing for the netting of mutual obligations. (See also the
discussion on master netting agreements above.)
ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" (FASB 133). In June 2000, FASB issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 138 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (collectively,
FASB 133).
FASB 133 requires AIG to recognize all derivatives in the consolidated
balance sheet at fair value. The financial statement recognition of the change
in the fair value of a derivative depends on a number of factors, including the
intended use of the derivative and the extent to which it is effective as part
of a hedge transaction. The changes in fair value of the derivative transactions
of AIGFP and AIGTG are currently presented, in all material respects, as a
component of AIG's operating income. The discussion below relates to the
derivative activities of AIG other than those of AIGFP and AIGTG.
On the date the derivative contract is entered into, AIG designates the
derivative as: (1) a hedge of the subsequent changes in the fair value of a
recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment ("fair
value" hedge); (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction, or the variability of
cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability
("cash flow" hedge); or (3) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.
Fair value and cash flow hedges may involve foreign currencies ("foreign
currency hedges"). The gain or loss in the fair value of a derivative that is
designated, qualifies and is highly effective as a fair value hedge is recorded
in current period earnings, along with the loss or gain on the hedged item
attributable to the hedged risk. The gain or loss in the fair value of a
derivative that is designated, qualifies and is highly effective as a cash flow
hedge is recorded in other comprehensive income, until earnings are affected by
the variability of cash flows. The gain or loss in the fair value of a
derivative that is designated, qualifies and is highly effective as a hedge of a
net investment in a foreign operation is recorded in the foreign currency
translation adjustments account within other comprehensive income. Changes in
the fair value of derivatives used for other than the above hedging activities
are reported in current period earnings.
AIG documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedge
items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategy for undertaking
various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives that
are designated as hedges to specific assets or liabilities on the balance sheet,
or specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. AIG also assesses, both
at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives used
in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair
values or cash flows of hedged items.
In accordance with the transition provisions of FASB 133, AIG recorded
in its consolidated income statement for 2001 a cumulative effect of an
accounting change adjustment loss of $6 million. This loss represents the net
fair value of all previously unrecorded derivative instruments as of January 1,
2001, net of tax and after the application of hedge accounting. AIG also
recorded in its consolidated statement of comprehensive income for 2001 a
cumulative effect of an accounting change adjustment gain of $150 million. This
gain represents the increase in other comprehensive income, net of taxes,
arising from recognizing the fair value of all derivative contracts designated
as cash flow hedging instruments, and to a lesser extent, hedging instruments
used to hedge net investments in foreign operations.
46
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
AIG (excluding its two trading operations, AIGFP and AIGTG) uses
derivative instruments (principally swap and forward contracts) to minimize
AIG's asset-liability exposure and foreign currency and interest rate exposures.
These risks arise primarily from available-for-sale fixed income securities,
debt, and policyholder account balance liabilities associated with guaranteed
investment contracts. Other hedging activities, such as those involving
forecasted transactions or equity securities, are not significant. During 2001,
there were no hedges that were discontinued or otherwise no longer qualify as
hedges under FASB 133. With respect to both fair value hedges and cash flow
hedges, hedge ineffectiveness was insignificant for 2001. During 2001, there
were minor reclassifications to earnings from other comprehensive income under
cash flow hedge accounting. These reclassifications were connected to programs
of synthetically converting certain investment securities, debt issuances or
policyholder account balance liabilities associated with guaranteed investment
contracts, from a floating interest rate to a fixed interest rate. As at
December 31, 2001, the maximum amount of net derivative losses to be
reclassified into net income within the next twelve months is insignificant. The
maximum length of time over which future cash flows are hedged is approximately
16 years.
In addition to hedging activities, AIG also uses derivative instruments
with respect to investment operations, which include, among other things,
writing option contracts, and purchasing investments with embedded derivatives,
such as equity linked notes and convertible bonds. All changes in the market
value of these derivatives are recorded in earnings. AIG bifurcates an embedded
derivative where: (1) the economic characteristics of the embedded instruments
are not clearly and closely related to those of the remaining components of the
financial instrument; and (2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the
embedded instrument meets the definition of a derivative under FASB 133.
In accordance with the transition provisions of FASB 133, AIG
transferred bonds in the held to maturity, at amortized cost category into the
bonds available for sale, at market value category at January 1, 2001. The
amortized cost of the bonds transferred was $11.53 billion. The unrealized
appreciation, net of deferred tax expense was approximately $339 million at the
date of transfer and was recorded as a cumulative effect of an accounting change
within other comprehensive income. Under the provisions of FASB 133, such a
transfer does not affect AIG's intent nor its ability to hold current or future
bonds to their maturity.
In January 1, 2001, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF
99-20, "Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained
Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets." EITF 99-20 provides
guidance on the calculation of interest income and the recognition of
impairments related to beneficial interests held in an investment portfolio.
Beneficial interests are investments that represent rights to receive specified
cash flows from a pool of underlying assets (i.e., collateralized debt
obligations). In accordance with the transition provisions of EITF 99-20, AIG
recorded in its consolidated income statement for 2001 a cumulative effect of an
accounting change adjustment loss of $130 million ($200 million before tax).
In June 2001, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 141 "Business Combinations" (FASB 141). FASB 141 requires AIG to apply the
purchase method of accounting for all acquisitions initiated after June 30,
2001.
In June 2001, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" (FASB 142). FASB 142 is effective
for AIG for the year commencing January 1, 2002. FASB 142 requires AIG to
discontinue the amortization of goodwill in its consolidated income statement.
However, FASB 142 requires goodwill to be subject to an assessment of
impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that
a possible impairment has occurred. AIG believes that the impact on its results
of operations and financial condition will not be significant.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION: On August 29, 2001 American General Corporation
(AGC), was acquired by American International Group, Inc. (AIG). In connection
with the acquisition, AIG issued approximately 290 million shares of its common
stock in exchange for all the outstanding common stock of AGC based on an
exchange ratio of 0.5790 of a share of AIG common stock for each share of AGC
common stock. The acquisition was accounted for as a pooling of interests and
the accompanying financial statements have been prepared to retroactively
combine AGC's financial statements with AIG's financial statements for all
periods presented.
All of the share information included herein reflects the application
of the exchange ratio to the number of shares of AGC common stock outstanding at
the relevant times rather than the number of shares of AIG common stock actually
issued or outstanding at such times. In addition, AGC convertible preferred
stock has been included based on its AGC common stock equivalent in the restated
capital accounts.
The following is a reconciliation of the individual company results to
the combined results for 2000 and 1999:
(in millions)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AIG AGC Total
================================================================================
2000
Revenues $45,972 $11,088 $57,060
Net income 5,636 1,003 6,639
1999
Revenues 40,656 10,674 51,330
Net income 5,055 1,131 6,186
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On January 1, 1999, SunAmerica Inc. merged with and into AIG. AIG
issued 187.5 million shares of its common stock in exchange for all the
outstanding common stock and Class B stock of SunAmerica Inc., based on an
exchange ratio of 0.855 shares of AIG common stock for each share of SunAmerica
Inc. stock. The merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests.
AIG subsidiaries write property, casualty, marine, life and financial
lines insurance in approximately 130 countries and jurisdictions. Certain of
AIG's foreign subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements
report on a fiscal year ending November 30. The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of AIG and its majority owned subsidiaries. All
material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
HSB Group, Inc. (HSB) was acquired on November 22, 2000 and
consolidated into AIG's financial statements during the fourth quarter of 2000.
This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.
(b) BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Certain accounts have been reclassified in the 2000 and 1999
financial statements to conform to their 2001 presentation.
General Insurance Operations: AIG's general insurance subsidiaries are
multiple line companies writing substantially all lines of property and casualty
insurance. Premiums are earned primarily on a pro rata basis over the term of
the related coverage. The reserve for unearned premiums represents the portion
of premiums written relating to the unexpired terms of coverage.
Acquisition costs represent those costs, including commissions, that
vary with and are primarily related to the acquisition of new business. These
costs are deferred and amortized over the period in which the related premiums
written are earned. Investment income is not anticipated in the deferral of
acquisition costs. (See Note 4.)
Losses and loss expenses are charged to income as incurred. The reserve
for losses and loss expenses represents the accumulation of estimates for
reported losses and includes provisions for losses incurred but not reported.
The methods of determining such estimates and establishing resulting reserves,
including amounts relating to reserves for estimated unrecoverable reinsurance,
are continually reviewed and updated. Adjustments resulting therefrom are
reflected in income currently. AIG discounts certain of its loss reserves which
are primarily related to certain workers' compensation claims. (See Note 6.)
Life Insurance Operations: AIG's life insurance subsidiaries offer a
wide range of traditional insurance and financial and investment products.
Traditional products consist of individual and group life, annuity, endowment
and accident and health policies. Financial and investment products consist of
single premium annuity, variable annuities, guaranteed investment contracts,
universal life and pensions. Premiums for traditional life insurance products
and life contingent annuities, excluding accident and health products, are
recognized as revenues when due. Estimates for premiums due but not yet
collected are accrued. Benefits and expenses are provided against such revenues
to recognize profits over the estimated life of the policies. Revenues for
universal life and investment-type products consist of policy charges for the
cost of insurance, administration and surrenders during the period. Policy
charges collected with respect to future services are deferred and recognized in
a manner similar to the deferred policy acquisition costs related to such
products. Expenses include interest credited to policy account balances and
benefit payments made in excess of policy account balances. Accident and health
products are accounted for in a manner similar to general insurance products
described above. Investment income reflects certain amounts of realized capital
gains where the gains are deemed to be an inherent element in pricing certain
life products in some foreign countries.

American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Policy acquisition costs for traditional life insurance products are
generally deferred and amortized over the premium paying period of the policy.
Policy acquisition costs and policy initiation costs related to universal life
and investment-type products (non-traditional products) are deferred and
amortized, with interest, in relation to the incidence of estimated gross
profits to be realized over the estimated lives of the contracts. Estimated
gross profits are composed of net interest income, net realized investment gains
and losses, variable annuity fees, surrender charges and direct administrative
expenses.
The deferred acquisition costs with respect to non-traditional products
are adjusted with respect to estimated gross profits as a result of changes in
the net unrealized gains or losses on debt and equity securities available for
sale. That is, as debt and equity securities available for sale are carried at
aggregate fair value, an adjustment is made to deferred policy acquisition costs
equal to the change in amortization that would have been recorded if such
securities had been sold at their stated aggregate fair value and the proceeds
reinvested at current yields. The change in this adjustment, net of tax, is
included with the change in net unrealized gains/losses on debt and equity
securities available for sale that is credited or charged directly to
comprehensive income. Deferred policy acquisition costs have been decreased by
$177 million at December 31, 2001 and increased by $222 million at December 31,
2000 for this adjustment. (See Note 4.)
The liabilities for future policy benefits and policyholders' contract
deposits are established using assumptions described in Note 6.
Financial Services Operations: AIG participates in the derivatives
dealer market conducting, primarily as principal, an interest rate, currency,
equity and credit derivative products business. AIG also enters into structured
transactions, including long-dated forward foreign exchange contracts, option
transactions, liquidity facilities and investment agreements, and invests in a
diversified portfolio of securities.
AIG engages in market making and trading activities, as principal, in
foreign exchange, interest rates and precious and base metals. AIG owns
inventories in the commodities in which it trades and may reduce the exposure to
market risk through the use of swaps, forwards, futures and option contracts.
AIG, as lessor, leases flight equipment principally under operating
leases. Accordingly, income is recognized over the life of the lease as rentals
become receivable under the provisions of the lease or, in the case of leases
with varying payments, under the straight-line method over the noncancelable
term of the lease. In certain cases, leases provide for additional payments
contingent on usage. AIG is also a remarketer of flight equipment for its own
account and for airlines and financial institutions, and provides, for a fee,
fleet management services to certain third-party operators. AIG's revenues from
such operations consist of net gains on sales of flight equipment and
commissions.
AIG provides a wide variety of consumer finance products, including
mortgages, retail sales finance and credit related insurance.
Retirement Savings & Asset Management Operations: AIG's retirement
savings & asset management operations offer a wide variety of investment
vehicles and services, including variable annuities, mutual funds and investment
asset management. Such products and services are offered to individuals and
institutions both domestically and internationally. The fees generated with
respect to retirement savings & asset management operations are recognized as
revenues when earned. Costs incurred in the sale of variable annuities and
mutual funds are deferred and subsequently amortized. With respect to variable
annuities, acquisition costs are amortized in relation to the incidence of
estimated gross profits to be realized over the estimated lives of the variable
annuity contracts. With respect to the sale of mutual funds, acquisition costs
are amortized over the estimated lives of the funds obtained.
(c) NON-CASH TRANSACTIONS: During 2001, 2000, and 1999, AIG issued
291.6 million, 17.8 million and 187.5 million common shares in connection with
acquisitions, respectively.
(d) INVESTMENTS IN FIXED MATURITIES AND EQUITY SECURITIES: Where AIG
may not have the positive intent to hold bonds and preferred stocks until
maturity, these securities are considered to be available for sale and carried
at current market values. Interest income with respect to fixed maturity
securities is accrued currently.
Fixed maturities held to maturity, at amortized cost, were transferred
to bonds available for sale, at market value, as of January 1, 2001 as permitted
and in accordance with the transition provisions of the Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"
(FASB 133). (See Notes 1(x) and 8(d).)
Included in the bonds available for sale are collateralized mortgage
obligations (CMOs). Premiums and discounts arising from the purchase of CMOs are
treated as yield adjustments over their estimated lives.
Bond trading securities are carried at current market values, as it is
AIG's intention to sell these securities in the near term.
Common and non-redeemable preferred stocks are carried at current
market values. Dividend income is generally recognized when receivable.
Unrealized gains and losses from investments in equity securities and
fixed maturities available for sale are reflected as a separate component of
comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes in capital funds currently.
Unrealized gains and losses from investments in trading securities are reflected
in income currently.
57
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Realized capital gains and losses are determined principally by
specific identification. Where declines in values of securities below cost or
amortized cost are considered to be other than temporary, a charge is reflected
in income for the difference between cost or amortized cost and estimated net
fair value.
(e) MORTGAGE LOANS ON REAL ESTATE, POLICY AND COLLATERAL LOANS -- NET:
Mortgage loans on real estate, policy loans and collateral loans are carried at
unpaid principal balances. Interest income on such loans is accrued currently.
Impairment of mortgage loans on real estate and collateral loans is
based upon certain risk factors and when collection of all amounts due under the
contractual term is not probable. This impairment is generally measured based on
the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's
effective interest rate subject to the fair value of underlying collateral.
Interest income on such loans is recognized as cash is received.
There is no allowance for policy loans, as these loans serve to reduce
the death benefit paid when the death claim is made and the balances are
effectively collateralized by the cash surrender value of the policy.
(f) FLIGHT EQUIPMENT: Flight equipment is stated at cost. Major
additions and modifications are capitalized. Normal maintenance and repairs,
airframe and engine overhauls and compliance with return conditions of flight
equipment on lease are provided by and paid for by the lessee. Under the
provisions of most leases for certain airframe and engine overhauls, the lessee
is reimbursed for costs incurred up to but not exceeding contingent rentals paid
to AIG by the lessee. AIG provides a charge to income for such reimbursements
based upon the expected reimbursements during the life of the lease.
Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line basis to a
residual value of approximately 15 percent over the estimated useful lives of
the related assets but not exceeding 25 years. AIG monitors the global aircraft
market and the values of various types and models of aircraft within that market
relative to the values of its own fleet. If events or circumstances were such
that the carrying amount of AIG's aircraft might be impaired, AIG would
determine if such impairment existed and recognize such impairment. This caption
also includes deposits for aircraft to be purchased.
At the time the assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and
associated accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the
related accounts and the difference, net of proceeds, is recorded as a gain or
loss.
(g) SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE, AT MARKET VALUE: These securities
are held to meet long term investment objectives and are accounted for as
available for sale, carried at current market values and recorded on a trade
date basis. Unrealized gains and losses from valuing these securities and any
related hedges are reflected in capital funds currently, net of any related
deferred income taxes. When the underlying security is sold, the realized gain
or loss resulting from the hedging derivative transaction is recognized in
income in that same period as the realized gain or loss of the hedged security.
(h) FINANCE RECEIVABLES: Finance charges are recognized as revenue
using the interest method. Revenue ceases to be accrued when contractual
payments are not received for four consecutive months for loans and retail sales
contracts, and for six months for revolving retail accounts and private label
receivables. Extension fees, late charges, and prepayment penalties are
recognized as revenue when received.
Direct costs of originating loans, net of non-refundable points and
fees, are deferred and included in the carrying amount of the related loans. The
amount deferred is recognized as an adjustment to finance charge revenues, using
the interest method over the lesser of the contractual term or the expected life
based on prepayment experience. If loans are prepaid, any remaining deferral is
charged or credited to revenue.
Foreclosure proceedings are initiated on real estate loans when four
monthly installments are past due and these loans are charged off at
foreclosure. All other finance receivables are charged off when minimal or no
collections have been made for six months.
The allowance for finance receivable losses is maintained at a level
considered adequate to absorb anticipated credit losses in the existing
portfolio. The portfolio is periodically evaluated on a pooled basis and
considers factors such as economic conditions, portfolio composition, and loss
and delinquency experience in the evaluation of the allowance.
(i) TRADING SECURITIES, AT MARKET VALUE: Trading securities are held to
meet short term investment objectives, including hedging securities. These
securities are recorded on a trade date basis and carried at current market
values. Unrealized gains and losses are reflected in income currently.
(j) SPOT COMMODITIES, AT MARKET VALUE: Spot commodities are carried at
current market values and are recorded on a trade date basis. The exposure to
market risk may be reduced through the use of forwards, futures and option
contracts. Unrealized gains and losses of both commodities and any derivative
transactions are reflected in income currently.
(k) UNREALIZED GAIN AND UNREALIZED LOSS ON INTEREST RATE AND CURRENCY
SWAPS, OPTIONS AND FORWARD TRANSACTIONS: Interest rate swaps, currency swaps,
equity swaps, swaptions, options and forward transactions are accounted for as
contractual commitments recorded on a trade date basis and are carried at
current market values or estimated fair values when market values are not
available. Unrealized gains and losses are reflected in income currently.
Estimated fair values are based on the use of valuation models that utilize,
among other things, current interest, foreign exchange and volatility rates. AIG
Financial Products Corp. and its subsidiaries (AIGFP) attempts to secure
reliable and independent current market prices, such as published exchange
prices, external subscription services' prices such as
58
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Bloomberg or Reuters or third party broker quotes for use in these models. When
such prices are not available, AIGFP uses an internal methodology which includes
interpolation or extrapolation from verifiable prices nearest to the dates of
the transactions. These valuations represent an assessment of the present values
of expected future cash flows of these transactions and reflect market and
credit risk. The portfolio's discounted cash flows are evaluated with reference
to current market conditions, maturities within the portfolio and other relevant
factors. Based upon this evaluation, it is determined what offsetting
transactions, if any, are necessary to reduce the market risk of the portfolio.
AIG manages its market risk with a variety of transactions, including swaps,
trading securities, futures and forward contracts and other transactions as
appropriate. Because of the limited liquidity of some of these instruments, the
recorded values of these transactions may be different than the values that
might be realized if AIG were to sell or close out the transactions prior to
maturity. AIG believes that such differences are not significant to the results
of operations, financial condition or liquidity. Such differences would be
immediately recognized when the transactions are sold or closed out prior to
maturity.
(l) TRADING ASSETS AND TRADING LIABILITIES: Trading assets and trading
liabilities include option premiums paid and received and receivables from and
payables to counterparties which relate to unrealized gains and losses on
futures, forwards and options and balances due from and due to clearing brokers
and exchanges.
Futures, forwards and options purchased and written are accounted for
as contractual commitments on a trade date basis and are carried at fair values.
Unrealized gains and losses are reflected in income currently. The fair values
of futures contracts are based on closing exchange quotations. Commodity forward
transactions are carried at fair values derived from dealer quotations and
underlying commodity exchange quotations. For long dated forward transactions,
where there are no dealer or exchange quotations, fair values are derived using
internally developed valuation methodologies based on available market
information. Options are carried at fair values based on the use of valuation
models that utilize, among other things, current interest or commodity rates and
foreign exchange and volatility rates, as applicable.
(m) SECURITIES PURCHASED (SOLD) UNDER AGREEMENTS TO RESELL
(REPURCHASE), AT CONTRACT VALUE: Purchases of securities under agreements to
resell and sales of securities under agreements to repurchase are accounted for
as collateralized lending transactions and are recorded at their contracted
resale or repurchase amounts, plus accrued interest. Generally, it is AIG's
policy to take possession of or obtain a security interest in securities
purchased under agreements to resell.
AIG minimizes the credit risk that counterparties to transactions might
be unable to fulfill their contractual obligations by monitoring customer credit
exposure and collateral value and generally requiring additional collateral to
be deposited with AIG when deemed necessary.
AIG also enters into dollar roll agreements. These are agreements to
sell mortgage-backed securities and to repurchase substantially the same
securities at a specified price and date in the future. The dollar rolls are
accounted for as collateralized financings and the repurchase obligation is a
component of other liabilities. At December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, there were
no dollar rolls outstanding.
(n) OTHER INVESTED ASSETS: Other invested assets consist primarily of
investments by AIG's insurance operations in joint ventures and partnerships,
invested collateral with respect to AIG's securities lending program and other
investments not classified elsewhere herein.
The joint ventures and partnerships are carried at equity or cost
depending on the equity ownership position.
AIG's insurance operations lend their securities and primarily take
cash as collateral with respect to the securities lent. Income earned is
recorded in the respective insurance operations net investment income.
Other investments are carried at cost or market values depending upon
the nature of the underlying assets.
Unrealized gains and losses from the revaluation of those investments
carried at fair values are reflected in comprehensive income, net of any related
deferred income taxes or realized capital gains or losses.
(o) REINSURANCE ASSETS: Reinsurance assets include the balances due
from both reinsurance and insurance companies under the terms of AIG's
reinsurance agreements for paid and unpaid losses and loss expenses, ceded
unearned premiums and ceded future policy benefits for life and accident and
health insurance contracts and benefits paid and unpaid. It also includes funds
held under reinsurance treaties. Amounts related to paid and unpaid losses and
loss expenses with respect to these reinsurance agreements are substantially
collateralized.
(p) INVESTMENTS IN PARTIALLY-OWNED COMPANIES: The equity method of
accounting is used for AIG's investment in companies in which AIG's ownership
interest approximates twenty but is not greater than fifty percent
(minority-owned companies). At December 31, 2001, AIG's significant investments
in partially-owned companies included its 24.4 percent interest in IPC Holdings,
Ltd. and its 23.4 percent interest in Allied World Assurance Holdings, Ltd. This
balance sheet caption also includes investments in less significant
partially-owned companies and in certain minor majority-owned subsidiaries. The
amounts of dividends received from unconsolidated entities owned less than 50
percent were $3 million, $3 million and $13 million in 2001, 2000 and 1999
59
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
respectively. The undistributed earnings of unconsolidated entities owned less
than 50 percent was $55 million as of December 31, 2001.
(q) REAL ESTATE AND OTHER FIXED ASSETS: The costs of buildings and
furniture and equipment are depreciated principally on a straight-line basis
over their estimated useful lives (maximum of 40 years for buildings and 10
years for furniture and equipment). Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are
charged to income as incurred; expenditures for betterments are capitalized and
depreciated.
From time to time, AIG assesses the carrying value of its real estate
relative to the market values of real estate within the specific local area. At
December 31, 2001, there were no impairments.
(r) SEPARATE AND VARIABLE ACCOUNTS: Separate and variable accounts
represent funds for which investment income and investment gains and losses
accrue directly to the policyholders who predominantly bear the investment risk.
Each account has specific investment objectives, and the assets are carried at
market value. The assets of each account are legally segregated and are not
subject to claims which arise out of any other business of AIG. The liabilities
for these accounts are equal to the account assets.
(s) SECURITIES AND SPOT COMMODITIES SOLD BUT NOT YET PURCHASED, AT
MARKET VALUE: Securities and spot commodities sold but not yet purchased
represent sales of securities and spot commodities not owned at the time of
sale. The obligations arising from such transactions are recorded on a trade
date basis and carried at the respective current market values or current
commodity prices. Unrealized gains or losses are reflected in income currently.
(t) PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY IN SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES: Preferred
shareholders' equity in subsidiary companies relates to outstanding preferred
stock or interest of ILFC and certain subsidiaries of SunAmerica, AGC and HSB,
wholly owned subsidiaries of AIG. Cash distributions on such preferred stock or
interest are accounted for as interest expense and included as minority interest
in the consolidated statement of income.
(u) TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES: Financial statement accounts
expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52 "Foreign Currency
Translation" (FASB 52). Under FASB 52, functional currency assets and
liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars generally using current rates of
exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date of each respective subsidiary and
the related translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of
comprehensive income, net of any related taxes in capital funds. Functional
currencies are generally the currencies of the local operating environment.
Income statement accounts expressed in functional currencies are translated
using average exchange rates. The adjustments resulting from translation of
financial statements of foreign entities operating in highly inflationary
economies are recorded in income. Exchange gains and losses resulting from
foreign currency transactions are also recorded in income currently. The
exchange gain or loss with respect to utilization of foreign exchange hedging
instruments is recorded as a component of comprehensive income.
(v) INCOME TAXES: Deferred federal and foreign income taxes are
provided for temporary differences for the expected future tax consequences of
events that have been recognized in AIG's financial statements or tax returns.
(w) EARNINGS PER SHARE: Basic earnings per common share are based on
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, retroactively adjusted
to reflect all stock dividends and stock splits. Diluted earnings per share are
based on those shares used in basic earnings per share plus shares that would
have been outstanding assuming issuance of common shares for all dilutive
potential common shares outstanding, retroactively adjusted to reflect all stock
dividends and stock splits.

====================================================================================================================================
(x) ACCOUNTING STANDARDS: In June 1998, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB 133. In June 2000, FASB issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 138 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities -- an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (collectively,
FASB 133).
FASB 133 requires AIG to recognize all derivatives in the consolidated
balance sheet at fair value. The financial statement recognition of the change
in the fair value of a derivative depends on a number of factors, including the
intended use of the derivative and the extent to which it is effective as part
of a hedge transaction. The changes in fair value of the derivative transactions
of AIGFP and AIG Trading Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (AIGTG) are currently
presented, in all material respects, as a component of AIG's operating income.
The discussion below relates to the derivative activities of AIG other than
those of AIGFP and AIGTG.
On the date the derivative contract is entered into, AIG designates the
derivative as: (1) a hedge of the subsequent changes in the fair value of a
recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment ("fair
value" hedge); (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction, or the variability of
cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability
("cash flow" hedge); or (3) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.
Fair value and cash flow hedges may involve foreign currencies ("foreign
currency hedges"). The gain or loss in the fair value of a derivative that is
designated, qualifies and is highly effective as a fair value hedge is recorded
in current period earnings, along with the loss or gain on the hedged item
attributable to the hedged risk. The gain or loss in the fair value of a
derivative that is designated, qualifies and is highly effective as a cash flow
hedge is recorded in other comprehensive income, until earnings are affected by
the variability of cash flows. The gain or loss in the fair value of a
derivative that is designated, qualifies and is highly effective as a hedge of a
net investment in a foreign operation is recorded in the foreign currency
translation adjustments account within other comprehensive income. Changes in
the fair value of derivatives used for other than the above hedging activities
are reported in current period earnings.
AIG documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged
items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategy for undertaking
various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives that
are designated as hedges to specific assets or liabilities on the balance sheet,
or specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. AIG also assesses, both
at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives used
in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair
values or cash flows of hedged items.
In accordance with the transition provisions of FASB 133, AIG recorded
in its consolidated income statement for 2001 a cumulative effect of an
accounting change adjustment loss of $6 million. This loss represents the net
fair value of all previous unrecorded derivative instruments as of January 1,
2001, net of tax and after the application of hedge accounting. AIG also
recorded in its consolidated statement of comprehensive income for 2001 a
cumulative effect of an accounting change
61
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
adjustment gain of $150 million. This gain represents the increase in other
comprehensive income, net of taxes, arising from recognizing the fair value of
all derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedging instruments, and to a
lesser extent, hedging instruments used to hedge net investments in foreign
operations.
AIG (excluding its two trading operations, AIGFP and AIGTG) uses
derivative instruments (principally swap and forward contracts) to minimize
AIG's asset-liability exposure and foreign currency and interest rate exposures.
These risks arise primarily from available-for-sale fixed income securities,
debt, and policyholder account balance liabilities associated with guaranteed
investment contracts. Other hedging activities, such as those involving
forecasted transactions or equity securities, are not significant. During 2001,
there were no hedges that were discontinued or otherwise no longer qualify as
hedges under FASB 133. With respect to both fair value hedges and cash flow
hedges, hedge ineffectiveness was insignificant for 2001. During 2001, there
were minor reclassifications to earnings from other comprehensive income under
cash flow hedge accounting. These reclassifications were connected to programs
of synthetically converting certain investment securities, debt issuances or
policyholder account balance liabilities associated with guaranteed investment
contracts, from a floating interest rate to a fixed interest rate. As at
December 31, 2001, the maximum amount of net derivative losses to be
reclassified into net income within the next twelve months is insignificant. The
maximum length of time over which future cash flows are hedged is approximately
16 years.
In addition to hedging activities, AIG also uses derivative instruments
with respect to investment operations, which include, among other things,
writing option contracts, and purchasing investments with embedded derivatives,
such as equity linked notes and convertible bonds. All changes in the market
value of these derivatives are recorded in earnings. AIG bifurcates an embedded
derivative where: (1) the economic characteristics of the embedded instruments
are not clearly and closely related to those of the remaining components of the
financial instrument; and (2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the
embedded instrument meets the definition of a derivative under FASB 133.
In accordance with the transition provisions of FASB 133, AIG
transferred bonds in the held to maturity, at amortized cost category into the
bonds available for sale, at market value category at January 1, 2001. The
amortized cost of the bonds transferred was $11.53 billion. The unrealized
appreciation, net of deferred tax expense was approximately $339 million at the
date of transfer and was recorded as a cumulative effect of an accounting change
within other comprehensive income. Under the provisions of FASB 133, such a
transfer does not affect AIG's intent nor its ability to hold current or future
bonds to their maturity.
In January 2001, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF
99-20, "Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained
Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets." EITF 99-20 provides
guidance on the calculation of interest income and the recognition of
impairments related to beneficial interests held in an investment portfolio.
Beneficial interests are investments that represent rights to receive specified
cash flows from a pool of underlying assets (i.e., collateralized debt
obligations). In accordance with the transition provisions of EITF 99-20, AIG
recorded in its consolidated income statement for 2001 a cumulative effect of an
accounting change adjustment loss of $130 million ($200 million before tax).
In June 2001, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 141 "Business Combinations" (FASB 141). FASB 141 requires AIG, among other
things, to apply the purchase method of accounting for all acquisitions
initiated after June 30, 2001.
In June 2001, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" (FASB 142). FASB 142 requires AIG
to discontinue the amortization of goodwill in its consolidated income
statement.
However, FASB 142 requires goodwill to be subject to an assessment of
impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that
a possible impairment has occurred. FASB 142 is effective for AIG for the year
commencing January 1, 2002. AIG is currently evaluating the impact of the
impairment provisions of FASB 142, and believes that the impact on its results
of operations and financial condition will not be significant.
2. FOREIGN OPERATIONS
Certain subsidiaries operate solely outside of the United States. Their assets
and liabilities are located principally in the countries where the insurance
risks are written and/or investment and non-insurance related operations are
located. In addition, certain of AIG's domestic subsidiaries have branch and/or
subsidiary operations and substantial assets and liabilities in foreign
countries. Certain countries have restrictions on the conversions of funds which
generally cause a delay in the outward remittance of such funds. Approximately
26 percent and 23 percent of consolidated assets at December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively, and 41 percent, 40 percent and 39 percent of revenues for the
years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, were located in or
derived from foreign countries (other than Canada). (See Note 19.)
3. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
(a) AIG and its domestic subsidiaries, excluding the AGC and SunAmerica life
insurance companies and their subsidiaries, file a consolidated U.S. Federal
income tax return. Each of AGC's and SunAmerica's life insurance companies and
their subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return.
62
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
3. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (continued)
Revenue Agent's Reports proposing to assess additional taxes for the
years 1987, 1988, 1989 and 1990 have been issued to AIG and Letters of Protest
contesting the proposed assessments have been filed with the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS). In addition, Revenue Agent's Reports proposing to assess
additional taxes for the years ended September 30, 1993 and 1994 have been
issued to SunAmerica. Such proposed assessments relate to years prior to AIG's
acquisition of SunAmerica. Letters of Protest contesting the proposed
assessments have been filed with the IRS. It is management's belief that there
are substantial arguments in support of the positions taken by AIG and
SunAmerica in their Letters of Protest. AIG also believes that any changes in
its tax obligations resulting from these examinations will not be significant to
AIG's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. All AIG,
SunAmerica and AGC consolidated tax returns are audited by the IRS. Although the
final outcome of any issues raised in connection with these audits is uncertain,
AIG believes that the ultimate liability, including interest, will be immaterial
to AIG's results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
A component of life insurance surplus accumulated prior to 1984 is not
taxable unless it exceeds certain statutory limitations or is distributed to
shareholders. This surplus, accumulated in policyholder surplus accounts,
totaled approximately $945 million at December 31, 2001. AIG has not made any
provision in the accompanying financial statements for taxation of this amount
as management has no intention of making any distributions from this surplus.
Foreign income not expected to be taxed in the United States has arisen
because AIG's foreign subsidiaries were generally not subject to U.S. income
taxes on income earned prior to January 1, 1987. Such income would become
subject to U.S. income taxes at current tax rates if remitted to the United
States or if other events occur which would make these amounts currently
taxable. The cumulative amount of translated undistributed earnings of AIG's
foreign subsidiaries currently not subject to U.S. income taxes was
approximately $4.5 billion at December 31, 2001. Management presently has not
subjected and has no intention of subjecting these accumulated earnings to
material U.S. income taxes and no provision has been made in the accompanying
financial statements for such taxes.

5. REINSURANCE
In the ordinary course of business, AIG's general and life insurance companies
cede reinsurance to other insurance companies in order to provide greater
diversification of AIG's business and limit the potential for losses arising
from large risks.
General reinsurance is effected under reinsurance treaties and by
negotiation on individual risks. Certain of these reinsurance arrangements
consist of excess of loss contracts which protect AIG against losses over
stipulated amounts. Ceded premiums are considered prepaid reinsurance premiums
and are amortized into income over the contract period in proportion to the
protection received. Amounts recoverable from general reinsurers are estimated
in a manner consistent with the claims liabilities associated with the
reinsurance and presented as a component of reinsurance assets.
64
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
5. REINSURANCE (continued)
AIG life companies limit exposure to loss on any single life. For
ordinary insurance, AIG retains a maximum of approximately one million dollars
of coverage per individual life with respect to AIG's overseas life operations
and $2.5 million of coverage per individual life with respect to AIG's domestic
life operations. There are smaller retentions for other lines of business. Life
reinsurance is effected principally under yearly renewable term treaties. The
premiums with respect to these treaties are considered prepaid reinsurance
premiums and are amortized into income over the contract period in proportion to
the protection provided. Amounts recoverable from life reinsurers are estimated
in a manner consistent with the assumptions used for the underlying policy
benefits and are presented as a component of reinsurance assets.
General insurance premiums written and earned were comprised of the
following:

For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, reinsurance
recoveries, which reduced loss and loss expenses incurred, amounted to $8.80
billion, $6.00 billion and $5.13 billion, respectively.
Life insurance net premium income was comprised of the following:
(in millions)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

================================================================================
Gross premium income $20,158 $17,935 $16,356

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net premium income $19,243 $17,173 $15,480
================================================================================
Life insurance recoveries, which reduced death and other benefits,
approximated $646 million, $331 million and $512 million, respectively, for the
years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.
AIG's reinsurance arrangements do not relieve AIG from its direct
obligation to its insureds. Thus, a credit exposure exists with respect to both
general and life reinsurance ceded to the extent that any reinsurer is unable to
meet the obligations assumed under the reinsurance agreements. AIG holds
substantial collateral as security under related reinsurance agreements in the
form of funds, securities and/or letters of credit. A provision has been
recorded for estimated unrecoverable reinsurance. AIG has been largely
successful in prior recovery efforts.
AIG evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers through an
internal reinsurance security committee consisting of members of AIG's senior
management. No single reinsurer is a material reinsurer to AIG nor is AIG's
business substantially dependent upon any reinsurance contract.
Life insurance ceded to other insurance companies was as follows:

================================================================================

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total $119,402 $ 99,327
================================================================================
(c) Long duration contract liabilities included in future policy
benefits, as presented in the table above, result from traditional life
products. Short duration contract liabilities are primarily accident and health
products. The liability for future life policy benefits has been established
based upon the following assumptions:
(i) Interest rates (exclusive of immediate/terminal funding annuities),
which vary by territory, year of issuance and products, range from 1.5 percent
to 12.0 percent within the first 20 years. Interest rates on immediate/terminal
funding annuities are at a maximum of 12.2 percent and grade to not greater than
7.5 percent.
(ii) Mortality and surrender rates are based upon actual experience by
geographical area modified to allow for variations in policy form. The weighted
average lapse rate, including surrenders, for individual and group life
approximated 8.3 percent.
(iii) The portions of current and prior net income and of current
unrealized appreciation of investments that can inure to the benefit of AIG are
restricted in some cases by the insurance contracts and by the local insurance
regulations of the countries in which the policies are in force.
(iv) Participating life business represented approximately 30 percent
of the gross insurance in-force at December 31, 2001 and 36 percent of gross
premium income in 2001. The amount of annual dividends to be paid is determined
locally by the Boards of Directors. Provisions for future dividend payments are
computed by jurisdiction, reflecting local regulations.
(d) The liability for policyholders' contract deposits has been
established based on the following assumptions:
(i) Interest rates credited on deferred annuities, which vary by
territory and year of issuance, range from 1.5 percent to 9.2 percent. Current
declared interest rates are generally guaranteed to remain in effect for a
period of one year though some are guaranteed for longer periods. Withdrawal
charges generally range from zero percent to 20.0 percent grading to zero over a
period of zero to 10 years.
(ii) Domestically, GICs have market value withdrawal provisions for any
funds withdrawn other than benefit responsive payments. Interest rates credited
generally range from 2.0 percent to 8.7 percent. The vast majority of these GICs
mature within 10 years. Overseas, interest rates credited on GICs generally
range from 2.5 percent to 7.3 percent and maturities range from 1 to 5 years.
(iii) Interest rates on corporate life insurance products are
guaranteed at 4.0 percent and the weighted average rate credited in 2001 was 6.4
percent.
(iv) The universal life funds have credited interest rates of 4.0
percent to 7.5 percent and guarantees ranging from 3.0 percent to 5.5 percent
depending on the year of issue. Additionally, universal life funds are subject
to surrender charges that amount to 13.2 percent of the aggregate fund balance
grading to zero over a period not longer than 20 years.
(e) Certain products, which are short duration contracts, are subject
to experience adjustments. These include group life and group medical products,
credit life contracts, accident & health insurance contracts/riders attached to
life policies and, to a limited extent, reinsurance agreements with other direct
insurers. Ultimate premiums from these contracts are estimated and recognized as
revenue and the unearned portions of the premiums are held as reserves.
Experience adjustments vary according to the type of contract and the territory
in which the policy is in force and are subject to local regulatory guidance.

*Includes net realized capital gains and losses.
AIG's insurance subsidiaries file financial statements prepared in
accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by
domestic or foreign insurance regulatory authorities. The differences between
statutory financial statements and financial statements prepared in accordance
with GAAP vary between domestic and foreign jurisdictions. The principal
differences are that statutory financial statements do not reflect deferred
policy acquisition costs and deferred income taxes, all bonds are carried at
amortized cost and reinsurance assets and liabilities are presented net of
reinsurance. AIG's use of permitted statutory accounting practices does not have
a significant impact on statutory surplus.

(g) REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITIES: AIG and Funding have entered into
syndicated revolving credit facilities (collectively, the Facility) aggregating
$1.5 billion. The Facility consists of $1.0 billion in short-term revolving
credit facilities and a $500 million five year revolving credit facility. The
Facility can be used for general corporate purposes and also to provide backup
for Funding's commercial paper programs. There are currently no borrowings
outstanding under the Facility, nor were any borrowings outstanding as of
December 31, 2001.
AGC and AGF have entered into unsecured bank credit facilities
aggregating $5.2 billion to support their commercial paper borrowings. There
were no borrowings under these facilities as of December 31, 2001. As of
December 2001, AIG has guaranteed these facilities.
ILFC had entered into committed revolving loans and lines of credit
with commercial banks aggregating $3.2 billion to support its commercial paper
program. At December 31, 2001, there were no borrowings under these facilities.
As of February 28, 2002, these committed revolving loans and lines of credit
totalled $2.7 billion.
(h) INTEREST EXPENSE FOR ALL INDEBTEDNESS: Total interest expense for
all indebtedness, net of capitalized interest, aggregated $3.97 billion in 2001,
$3.64 billion in 2000 and $2.96 billion in 1999. Capitalized interest was $71
million in 2001, $69 million in 2000 and $60 million in 1999. Cash distributions
on the preferred shareholders' equity in subsidiary companies of ILFC and
certain SunAmerica, AGC and HSB subsidiaries are accounted for as interest
expense and included as minority interest in the consolidated statement of
income. The cash distributions for ILFC were approximately $15 million, $19
million and $17 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The cash distributions for the SunAmerica subsidiaries were
approximately $46 million, $62 million and $40 million for the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The cash distributions for AGC
subsidiaries were approximately $153 million, $158 million and $142 million for
the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
10. PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY IN SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
Preferred shareholders' equity in subsidiary companies represents preferred
stocks issued by ILFC and certain SunAmerica, AGC and HSB subsidiaries, wholly
owned subsidiaries of AIG.
(a) ILFC: At December 31, 2001, the preferred stock consists of 1,500
shares of market auction preferred stock ("MAPS") in three series (Series A, B
and E) of 500 shares each. Each of the MAPS shares has a liquidation value of
$100,000 per share and is not convertible. The dividend rate, other than the
initial rate, for each dividend period for each series is reset approximately
every seven weeks (49 days) on the basis of orders placed in an auction. ILFC
repurchased all of the shares of each of five additional series for their
liquidation value in the fourth quarter of 2001. No gain or loss was recognized.
During 2001, ILFC extended the term of the Series A to five years at a dividend
rate of 5.90 percent. At December 31, 2001, the dividend rates for Series B and
E ranged from 3.20 percent to 3.25 percent.
(b) SUNAMERICA: The preferred stock consists of $350 million
liquidation amount of 7.5% Non-Voting Preferred Interests issued by Total Return
LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of SunAmerica, in March 2000.
In March 2001, SunAmerica Capital Trust II redeemed the 8.35% Trust
Originated Preferred Securities for $185 million plus accrued and unpaid
dividends to the redemption date. Concurrently, SunAmerica redeemed all of the
related 8.35% junior subordinated debentures, due 2044, for $191 million plus
accrued interest.
In December 2001, SunAmerica Capital Trust III redeemed the 8.30% Trust
Originated Preferred Securities for $310 million plus accrued and unpaid
dividends to the redemption date. Concurrently, SunAmerica redeemed all of the
related 8.30% junior subordinated debentures, due 2045, for $321 million plus
accrued interest.
(c) AGC: The preferred stock has been issued by five subsidiary trusts
(the subsidiaries).
The sole assets of these subsidiaries are Junior Subordinated
Debentures (Subordinated Debentures) issued by AGC. These subsidiaries have no
independent operations. The Subordinated Debentures are eliminated in
consolidation.
The interest terms and payment dates of the Subordinated Debentures
held by the subsidiaries correspond to those of the subsidiaries' preferred
securities. AGC's obligations under the Subordinated Debentures and related
agreements, when taken together, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee
by AGC of payments due on the preferred securities. The Subordinated Debentures
are redeemable, under certain conditions, at the option of AGC on a
proportionate basis.
The preferred stock consists of $100 million liquidation value of 8.05%
preferred stock issued by American General Capital III in December 2000, $300
million liquidation value

Capital I in September 1999, $500 million liquidation value of 8.125% preferred
stock issued by American General Institutional Capital B in March 1997, $500
million liquidation value of 7.57% preferred stock issued by American General
Institutional Capital A in December 1996.
In July 2001, $215 million liquidation value of 8.125% preferred stock
were redeemed by American General Capital, L.L.C. and $287 million liquidation
value of 8.45% preferred stock were redeemed by American General Capital,
L.L.C..
On March 1, 2000, AGC redeemed 2.3 million shares or $85 million of its
7 percent convertible preferred stock by issuing 3.8 million shares of AGC
common stock. On June 30, 2000, holders converted approximately 5 million shares
or $250 million of 6 percent convertible preferred securities issued by American
General Delaware, L.L.C. into 12.3 million shares of AGC common stock.
(d) HSB: The preferred stock consists of $95 million liquidation value
of Exchange Capital Securities issued in July 1997 by HSB Capital I, a statutory
business trust wholly owned by HSB. The sole assets of HSB Capital I are
invested in debt securities of HSB. The capital securities accrue and pay
quarterly cash distributions at a variable rate equal to 90 day LIBOR plus 0.91%
of the stated liquidation amount of $1,000 per capital security, which rate was
2.79% at December 31, 2001. The capital securities are not redeemable prior to
July 15, 2007 and are mandatorily redeemable upon the maturity of the debt
securities on July 15, 2027 or the earlier redemption of the debt securities.
AIG has issued a guarantee of the obligations of HSB, which together with the
terms of the debt securities, the guarantee of HSB with respect to the capital
securities, the indenture and the trust agreement with respect to the trust
provide a full and unconditional guarantee of payments due on the capital
securities. The trust is accounted for as a wholly owned subsidiary of AIG. The
debt securities issued to the trust and the common securities issued by the
trust to HSB are eliminated in the consolidated balance sheet.
11. CAPITAL FUNDS
(a) AIG parent depends on its subsidiaries for cash flow in the form of
loans, advances and dividends. AIG's insurance subsidiaries are subject to
regulatory restrictions on the amount of dividends which can be remitted to AIG
parent. These restrictions vary by state. For example, unless permitted by the
New York Superintendent of Insurance, general insurance companies domiciled in
New York may not pay dividends to shareholders which in any twelve month period
exceed the lesser of 10 percent of the company's statutory policyholders'
surplus or 100 percent of its "adjusted net investment income", as defined.
Generally, less severe restrictions applicable to both general and life
insurance companies exist in most of the other states in which AIG's insurance
subsidiaries are domiciled. Certain foreign jurisdictions have restrictions
which generally cause only a temporary delay in the remittance of dividends.
There are also various local restrictions limiting cash loans and advances to
AIG by its subsidiaries. Largely as a result of the restrictions, approximately
67 percent of consolidated capital funds were restricted from immediate transfer
to AIG parent at December 31, 2001.
(b) At December 31, 2001, there were 6,000,000 shares of AIG's $5 par
value serial preferred stock authorized, issuable in series.
(c) The common stock activity for the three years ended December 31, 2001
was as follows:

50 percent and 25 percent common stock dividends paid July 28, 2000 and July 30,
1999, respectively.
12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
In the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent
liabilities are entered into by AIG and certain of its subsidiaries. In
addition, AIG guarantees various obligations of certain subsidiaries.
(a) Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend subject to
certain conditions. These commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or
termination clauses and typically require payment of a fee. These commitments
approximated
75
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (continued)
$300 million and $500 million for December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. AIG
uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations
as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. AIG evaluates each counterparty's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if
deemed necessary by AIG upon extension of credit, is based on management's
credit evaluation of the counterparty.
(b) AIG and certain of its subsidiaries become parties to financial
instruments with market risk resulting from both dealer and end user activities
and to reduce currency, interest rate, equity and commodity exposures. To the
extent those instruments are carried at their estimated fair value, the elements
of currency, interest rate, equity and commodity risks are reflected in the
consolidated balance sheet. Collateral is required, at the discretion of AIG, on
certain transactions based on the creditworthiness of the counterparty.
(c) AIGFP becomes a party to derivative financial instruments in the normal
course of its business and to reduce its currency, interest rate and equity
exposures. Interest rate, currency and equity risks related to such instruments
are reflected in the consolidated financial statements to the extent these
instruments are carried at a market or a fair value, whichever is appropriate.
The recorded estimated fair values of such instruments may be different than the
values that might be realized if AIGFP were required to sell or close out the
transactions prior to maturity.
AIGFP, in the ordinary course of its operations and as principal, structures
derivative transactions to meet the needs of investors who may be seeking to
hedge certain aspects of such investors' operations. AIGFP may also enter into
derivative transactions for its own account. Such derivative transactions
include interest rate, currency and equity swaps, swaptions and forward
commitments. Interest rate swap transactions generally involve the exchange of
fixed and floating rate interest payment obligations without the exchange of the
underlying principal amounts. AIGFP typically becomes a principal in the
exchange of interest payments between the parties and, therefore, may be exposed
to loss, if counterparties default. Currency and equity swaps are similar to
interest rate swaps, but involves the exchange of specific currency, equity
securities, or equity indices. Also, they may involve the exchange of principal
amounts at the beginning and end of the transaction. Swaptions are options where
the holder has the right but not the obligation to enter into a swap transaction
or cancel an existing swap transaction. At December 31, 2001, the notional
principal amount of the sum of the swap pays and receives approximated $634.3
billion, primarily related to interest rate swaps of approximately $436.7
billion.
The following tables provide the contractual and notional amounts of
derivatives transactions of AIGFP at December 31, 2001.
The notional amounts used to express the extent of involvement in swap
transactions represent a standard of measurement of the volume of swaps business
of AIGFP. Notional amount is not a quantification of market risk or credit risk
and it may not necessarily be recorded on the balance sheet. Notional amounts
represent those amounts used to calculate contractual cash flows to be exchanged
and are not paid or received, except for certain contracts such as currency
swaps.
The timing and the amount of cash flows relating to AIGFP's foreign exchange
forwards and exchange traded futures and options contracts are determined by
each of the respective contractual agreements.
The following table presents AIGFP's derivatives portfolio by maturity and
type of derivative at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000:

Futures and forward contracts are contracts for delivery of foreign
currencies or financial indices in which the seller/ purchaser agrees to
make/take delivery at a specified future date of a specified instrument, at a
specified price or yield. Risks arise as a result of movements in current market
prices from contracted prices and the potential inability of counterparties to
meet their obligations under the contracts. At December 31, 2001, the
contractual amount of AIGFP's futures and forward contracts approximated $68.0
billion.

AIGFP utilizes various credit enhancements, including collateral, credit
triggers and credit derivatives to reduce the credit exposure relating to these
off-balance sheet financial instruments. AIGFP requires credit enhancements in
connection with specific transactions based on, among other things, the
creditworthiness of the counterparties and the transaction's size and maturity.
In addition, AIGFP's derivative transactions are generally documented under ISDA
Master Agreements. Management believes that such agreements provide for legally
enforceable set-off and close out netting of exposures to specific
counterparties. Under such agreements, in connection with an early termination
of a transaction, AIGFP is permitted to set-off its receivables from a
counterparty against its payables to the same counterparty arising out of all
included transactions. As a result, the net replacement value represents the net
sum of estimated positive fair values after the application of such strategies,
agreements and collateral held. Subsequent to the application of such credit
enhancements, the net exposure to credit risk or the net replacement value of
all interest rate, currency, and equity swaps, swaptions and forward commitments
approximated $10.84 billion at December 31, 2001 and $9.51 billion at December
31, 2000. The net replacement value for futures and forward contracts
approximated $64 million at December 31, 2001 and $204 million at December 31,
2000. The net replacement value most closely represents the net credit risk to
AIGFP or the maximum amount exposed to potential loss.
AIGFP independently evaluates the creditworthiness of its counterparties,
taking into account credit ratings assigned by recognized statistical rating
organizations. In addition, AIGFP's credit approval process involves pre-set
counterparty, country and industry credit exposure limits and, for particularly
credit intensive transactions, obtaining approval from AIG's Credit Risk
Committee. The average credit rating of AIGFP's counterparties as a whole (as
measured by AIGFP) is equivalent to AA. The maximum potential loss will increase
or decrease during the life of the derivative commitments as a function of
maturity and market conditions.
AIGFP determines counterparty credit quality by reference to ratings from
independent rating agencies or internal analysis. At December 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000, the counterparty credit quality by derivative product with
respect to the net replacement value of AIGFP's derivatives portfolio was as

Securities sold, but not yet purchased represent obligations of AIGFP to
deliver specified securities at their contracted prices, and thereby create a
liability to repurchase the securities in the market at prevailing prices.
AIGFP monitors and controls its risk exposure on a daily basis through
financial, credit and legal reporting systems and, accordingly, believes that it
has in place effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and
market risks to which it is subject. Management is not aware of any potentially
significant counterparty defaults.
Commissions, transaction and other fees for the twelve months ended December
31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 from AIGFP's operations were $1.18 billion, $1.06
billion and $737 million, respectively.
(d) AIGTG becomes a party to derivative financial instruments in the normal
course of its business and to reduce its currency, interest rate and commodity
exposures.
Futures and forward contracts are contracts for delivery of foreign
currencies, commodities or financial indices in which the seller/purchaser
agrees to make/take delivery at a specified future date of a specified
instrument, at a specified price or yield. Risks arise as a result of movements
in current market prices from contracted prices and the potential inability of
counterparties to meet their obligations under the contracts. Options are
contracts that allow the holder of the option to purchase or sell the underlying
commodity, currency or index at a specified price and within, or at, a specified
period of time. Risks arise as a result of movements in current market prices
from contracted prices, and the potential inability of the counterparties to
meet their obligations under the contracts. As a writer of options, AIGTG
generally receives an option premium and then manages the risk of any
unfavorable change in the value of the underlying commodity, currency or index.
At December 31, 2001, the contractual amount of AIGTG's futures, forward and
option contracts approximated $475.4 billion.
The following table provides the contractual and notional amounts and credit
exposure, if applicable, by maturity and type of derivative of AIGTG's
derivatives portfolio at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000. The gross
replacement values presented represent the sum of the estimated positive fair
values of all of AIGTG's derivatives contracts at December 31, 2001 and December
31, 2000. These values do not represent the credit risk to AIGTG.
Net replacement values presented represent the net sum of estimated positive
fair values after the application of legally enforceable master closeout netting
agreements and collateral held. The net replacement values most closely
represent the net credit risk to AIGTG or the maximum amount exposed to
potential loss within a product category. At December 31, 2001, the net
replacement value of AIGTG's futures, forward and option contracts and interest
rate and currency swaps approximated $3.1 billion.

Spot commodities sold but not yet purchased represent obligations of AIGTG
to deliver spot commodities at their contracted prices and thereby create a
liability to repurchase the spot commodities in the market at prevailing prices.

AIGTG limits its risks by holding offsetting positions. In addition, AIGTG
monitors and controls its risk exposures through various monitoring systems
which evaluate AIGTG's market and credit risks, and through credit approvals and
limits. At December 31, 2001, AIGTG did not have a significant concentration of
credit risk from either an individual counterparty or group of counterparties.
AIG has issued unconditional guarantees with respect to the prompt payment,
when due, of all present and future obligations and liabilities of AIGFP and
AIGTG arising from transactions entered into by AIGFP and AIGTG.
(e) As a component of its asset and liability management strategy,
SunAmerica utilizes swap agreements to match more closely the cash flows of its
assets to the cash flows of its liabilities. SunAmerica uses these swap
agreements to hedge against the risk of interest rate changes. At December 31,
2001, SunAmerica's swap agreements had an aggregate notional principal amount of
$17.90 billion. These agreements mature in various years through 2031.
For investment purposes, SunAmerica has entered into various total return
agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $26 million (the "notional
amount") at December 31, 2001. The total return agreements effectively exchange
a fixed rate of interest (the "payment amount") on the notional amount for the
coupon income plus or minus the increase or decrease in the fair value of
specified non-investment grade bonds (the "bonds"). SunAmerica is exposed to
potential loss with respect to credit risk on the underlying non-investment
grade bonds and fair value risk resulting from the payment amount and any
depreciation in the aggregate fair value of the bonds below the notional amount.
SunAmerica is also exposed to potential credit loss in the event of
nonperformance by the investment grade rated counterparty with respect to any
increase in the aggregate market value of the bonds above the notional amount.
No collateral is held or pledged to support these agreements. The agreements are
marked to market and the change in market value is recognized currently in life
investment income. Net amounts received (paid) are included in operating income
and totaled $18 million, ($39 million) and ($12 million) for the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. AIG guarantees the payment
obligations of SunAmerica under such agreements.
(f) AGC and certain of its subsidiaries have entered into various interest
rate and currency swap agreements, treasury rate lock agreements and options to
enter into interest rate swap agreements. AGC uses these agreements to hedge its
exposure to interest rate changes and currency rate fluctuations that are
associated with investment operations and/or anticipated debt issuances. At
December 31, 2001, AGC's swap agreements with respect to investment operations
had an aggregate notional amount of $331 million; AGC's swap agreements with
respect to debt had an aggregate notional amount of $800 million, of which $400
million was with AIGFP. There were no treasury rate lock agreements outstanding
at December 31, 2001. The impact of AGC's derivatives on AIG's results of
operations, financial condition and liquidity was insignificant.
(g) At December 31, 2001, ILFC had committed to purchase 551 aircraft
deliverable from 2002 through 2010 at an estimated aggregate purchase price of
$32.1 billion and had options to purchase 49 aircraft deliverable from 2002
through 2008 at an estimated aggregate purchase price of $3.0 billion. ILFC will
be required to find customers for any aircraft presently on order and any
aircraft to be ordered, and it must arrange financing for portions of the
purchase price of such equipment.
(h) AIG and its subsidiaries, in common with the insurance industry in
general, are subject to litigation, including claims for punitive damages, in
the normal course of their business. AIG does not believe that such litigation
will have a material effect on its operating results and financial condition.
AIG continues to receive claims asserting injuries from toxic waste,
hazardous substances, and other environmental pollutants and alleged damages to
cover the cleanup costs of hazardous waste dump sites (hereinafter collectively
referred to as environmental claims) and indemnity claims asserting injuries
from asbestos. Estimation of asbestos and environmental claims loss reserves is
a difficult process, as these claims, which emanate from policies written in
1984 and prior years, cannot be estimated by conventional reserving techniques.
Asbestos and environmental claims development is affected by factors such as
inconsistent court resolutions, the broadening of the intent of policies and
scope of coverage and increasing number of new claims. AIG and other industry
members have and will continue to litigate the broadening judicial
interpretation of policy coverage and the liability issues. If the courts
continue in the future to expand the intent of the policies and the scope of the
coverage, as they have in the past, additional liabilities would emerge for
amounts in excess of reserves held. This emergence cannot now be reasonably
estimated, but could have a material impact on AIG's future operating results.
The reserves carried for these claims as at December 31, 2001 ($2.23 billion
gross; $719 million net) are believed to be adequate as these reserves are based
on known facts and current law.
A summary of reserve activity, including estimates for applicable incurred
but not reported losses and loss expenses, relating to asbestos and
environmental claims separately and combined at December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999

(i) Risk Based Capital (RBC) is designed to measure the adequacy of an
insurer's statutory surplus in relation to the risks inherent in its business.
Thus, inadequately capitalized general and life insurance companies may be
identified.
The RBC formula develops a risk adjusted target level of adjusted statutory
capital by applying certain factors to various asset, premium and reserve items.
Higher factors are applied to more risky items and lower factors are applied to
less risky items. Thus, the target level of statutory surplus varies not only as
a result of the insurer's size, but also on the risk profile of the insurer's
operations.
The RBC Model Law provides for four incremental levels of regulatory
attention for insurers whose surplus is below the calculated RBC target. These
levels of attention range in severity from requiring the insurer to submit a
plan for corrective action to actually placing the insurer under regulatory
control.
The statutory surplus of each of AIG's domestic general and life insurance
subsidiaries exceeded their RBC standards by considerable margins as of December
31, 2001.
To the extent that any of AIG's insurance entities would fall below
prescribed levels of surplus, it would be AIG's intention to infuse necessary
capital to support that entity.
(j) SAI Deferred Compensation Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
AIG, has established a deferred compensation plan for registered representatives
of certain AIG subsidiaries, pursuant to which participants have the opportunity
to invest deferred commissions and fees on a notional basis. The value of the
deferred compensation fluctuates with the value of the deferred investment
alternatives chosen. AIG has provided a full and unconditional guarantee of the
obligations of SAI Deferred Compensation Holdings, Inc. to pay the deferred
compensation under the plan.
13. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments" (FASB 107) requires disclosure of fair value
information about financial instruments, as defined therein, for which it is
practicable to estimate such fair value. These financial instruments may or may
not be recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. In the measurement of the
fair value of certain of the financial instruments, quoted market prices were
not available and other valuation techniques were utilized. These derived fair
value estimates are significantly affected by the assumptions used. FASB 107
excludes certain financial instruments, including those related to insurance
contracts.
The following methods and assumptions were used by AIG in estimating the
fair value of the financial instruments presented:
Cash and short-term investments: The carrying amounts reported in the
consolidated balance sheet for these instruments approximate fair values.
Fixed maturity securities: Fair values for fixed maturity securities carried
at amortized cost or at market value were generally based upon quoted market
prices. For certain fixed maturity securities for which market prices were not
readily available, fair values were estimated using values obtained from
independent pricing services. No other fair valuation techniques were applied to
these securities as AIG believes it would have to expend excessive costs for the
benefits derived.
Equity securities: Fair values for equity securities were based upon quoted
market prices.
Mortgage loans on real estate, policy and collateral loans: Where practical,
the fair values of loans on real estate and collateral loans were estimated
using discounted cash flow calculations based upon AIG's current incremental
lending
81
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
13. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
rates for similar type loans. The fair values of the policy loans were not
calculated as AIG believes it would have to expend excessive costs for the
benefits derived.
Trading assets and trading liabilities: Fair values for trading assets and
trading liabilities approximate the carrying values presented in the
consolidated balance sheet.
Finance receivables: the fair values of finance receivables were estimated
using discounted cash flow calculations based upon the weighted average rates
currently being offered for similar finance receivables.
Securities available for sale: Fair values for securities available for sale
and related hedges were based on quoted market prices. For securities and
related hedges for which market prices were not readily available, fair values
were estimated using quoted market prices of comparable investments.
Trading securities: Fair values for trading securities were based on current
market value where available. For securities for which market values were not
readily available, fair values were estimated using quoted market prices of
comparable investments.
Spot commodities: Fair values for spot commodities were based on current
market prices.
Unrealized gains and losses on interest rate and currency swaps, options and
forward transactions: Fair values for swaps, options and forward transactions
were based on the use of valuation models that utilize, among other things,
current interest, foreign exchange and volatility rates, as applicable.
Securities purchased (sold) under agreements to resell (repurchase), at
contract value: As these securities (obligations) are short-term in nature, the
contract values approximate fair values.
Other invested assets: For assets for which market prices were not readily
available, fair valuation techniques were not applied as AIG believes it would
have to expend excessive costs for the benefits derived.
Policyholders' contract deposits: Fair values of policyholder contract
deposits were estimated using discounted cash flow calculations based upon
interest rates currently being offered for similar contracts with maturities
consistent with those remaining for the contracts being valued.
GIAs: Fair values of AIG's obligations under investment type agreements were
estimated using discounted cash flow calculations based on interest rates
currently being offered for similar agreements with maturities consistent with
those remaining for the agreements being valued.
Securities and spot commodities sold but not yet purchased: The carrying
amounts for the financial instruments approximate fair values. Fair values for
spot commodities sold short were based on current market prices.
Trust deposits and deposits due to banks and other depositors: To the extent
certain amounts are not demand deposits or certificates of deposit which mature
in more than one year, fair values were not calculated as AIG believes it would
have to expend excessive costs for the benefits derived.
Commercial paper: The carrying amount of AIG's commercial paper borrowings
approximates fair value.
Notes, bonds, loans and mortgages payable: Where practical, the fair values
of these obligations were estimated using discounted cash flow calculations
based upon AIG's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of
borrowings with maturities consistent with those remaining for the debt being
valued.
The carrying values and fair values of AIG's financial instruments at
December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 and the average fair values with respect
to derivative positions during 2001 and 2000 were as follows:

14. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
(a) At December 31, 2001, AIG had two types of stock-based compensation plans.
One type was a stock option plan; the other, an employee stock purchase plan.
AIG applied APB Opinion 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and
related Interpretations (APB 25) in accounting for each plan. Accordingly, no
compensation costs have been recognized for the plans.
Had compensation costs for these plans been determined consistent with the
method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for
Awards of Stock Based Compensation to Employees" (FASB 123), AIG's net income
and earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999
would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts as follows:

(a) Post acquisition amounts.
(b) Includes AGC shares which were exchanged for AIG shares at an exchange ratio

each year presented.
(i) STOCK OPTION PLAN:On September 15, 1999, the AIG Board of Directors
adopted a 1999 stock option plan (the 1999 Plan), which provides that options to
purchase a maximum of 15,000,000 shares of common stock can be granted to
certain key employees and members of the Board of Directors at prices not less
than fair market value at the date of grant. The 1999 Plan limits the maximum
number of shares as to which stock options may be granted to any employee in any
one year to 375,000 shares. Options granted under this Plan expire not more than
10 years from the date of the grant. Options with respect to 25,000 shares,
12,000 shares and 13,500 shares were granted to non-employee members of the
Board of Directors on May 16, 2001, May 17, 2000 and September 15, 1999,
respectively. These options become exercisable on the first anniversary of the
date of grant, expire 10 years from the date of grant and do not qualify for
Incentive Stock Option Treatment under the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981
(ISO Treatment). The Plan, and the options previously granted thereunder, were
approved by the shareholders at the 2000 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. At
December 31, 2001, 9,383,419 shares were reserved for future grants under the
1999 Plan. The 1999 Plan superseded the 1991 employee stock option plan (the
1991 Plan) and the previously superseded 1987 employee stock option plan (the
1987 Plan), although outstanding options granted under the 1991 Plan continue in
force until exercise or expiration. At December 31, 2001, there were 17,234,202
shares reserved for issuance under the 1999 and 1991 Plans.
83
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
14. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS (continued)
During 2001 and 2000, AIG granted options with respect to 837,275 shares and
413,500 shares, respectively, which become exercisable on the fifth anniversary
of the date of grant and expire 10 years from the date of grant. These options
do not qualify for ISO Treatment. The agreements with respect to all other
options granted to employees under these plans provide that 25 percent of the
options granted become exercisable on the anniversary of the date of grant in
each of the four years following that grant and expire 10 years from the date of
the grant. As of December 31, 2001, outstanding options granted with respect to
8,650,613 shares qualified for ISO Treatment.
At January 1, 1999, the merger date, SunAmerica Inc. had five stock-based
compensation plans pursuant to which options, restricted stock and deferred
share and share unit obligations had been issued and remained outstanding.
Options granted under these plans had an exercise price equal to the market
price on the date of grant, had a maximum term of ten years and generally became
exercisable ratably over a five-year period. Substantially all of the SunAmerica
Inc. options outstanding at the merger date became fully vested on that date and
were converted into options to purchase AIG common stock at the exchange ratio
of 0.855 shares of AIG common stock for each share of SunAmerica Inc. common
stock. No further options can be granted under the SunAmerica Inc. plans, but
outstanding options so converted continue in force until exercise or expiration.
At December 31, 2001, there were 19,537,739 shares of AIG common stock reserved
for issuance on exercise of options under these plans. None of these options
qualified for ISO Treatment as of December 31, 2001.
During 1999, AIG issued 1,009,968 shares of AIG common stock which vested on
the effectiveness of the merger with SunAmerica Inc., and an additional 993,031
shares were issued pursuant to deferred share and share unit obligations. During
2000, deferred share and share unit obligations with respect to an additional
1,224,214 shares of AIG common stock vested, 142,105 shares were issued pursuant
to deferred share and share unit obligations and an additional 1,082,109 shares
were delivered into a trust in connection with a deferred compensation plan.
During 2001, deferred share and share unit obligations with respect to an
additional 19,930 shares of AIG Common Stock vested and were issued. No
additional deferred share or share unit obligations may be granted under the
SunAmerica plans. As of December 31, 2001, deferred share and share unit
obligations with respect to 153,685 shares remained outstanding under the
SunAmerica plans.
In 1999, the AIG Board of Directors amended the AIG stock option plans to
allow deferral of delivery of AIG shares otherwise deliverable upon the exercise
of an option to a date or dates specified by the optionee upon the request of an
optionee. During 2001, options with respect to 847,128 shares were exercised
with delivery deferred. At December 31, 2001, optionees had made valid elections
to defer delivery of 590,048 shares of AIG common stock upon exercise of options
expiring during 2002.
As a result of the acquisition of HSB in November 2000, HSB options
outstanding at the acquisition date were fully vested and were converted into
options to purchase AIG common stock at the exchange ratio of 0.4178 shares of
AIG common stock for each share of HSB common stock. No further options can be
granted under the HSB option plans, but outstanding options so converted
continue in force until exercise or expiration. At December 31, 2001, there were
1,413,268 shares of AIG common stock reserved for issuance under the HSB option
plans, none of which qualified for ISO Treatment.
At August 29, 2001, AGC had stock-based compensation plans pursuant to which
options and restricted share units had been issued and remained outstanding.
Options granted under these plans had an exercise price equal to the market
price on the date of the grant, had a maximum term of ten years and generally
became exercisable ratably over a three-year period. Substantially all of the
AGC options outstanding at the acquisition date became fully vested on that date
and were converted into options to purchase AIG common stock at an exchange
ratio of 0.5790 shares of AIG common stock for each share of AGC common stock.
No further options can be granted under the AGC plans, but outstanding options
so converted continue in force until exercise or expiration. At December 31,
2001, there were 16,110,111 shares of AIG common stock reserved for issuance on
exercise of options under these plans. Options with respect to 2,356,506 of
these shares qualified for ISO Treatment as of December 31, 2001.

The fair values of stock options granted during the years ended December 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999 were $213 million, $85 million and $71 million,
respectively. The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of the
grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
The following weighted average assumptions were used for grants in 2001,
2000 and 1999, respectively: dividend yields of 0.20 percent, 0.17 percent and
0.20 percent; expected volatilities of 28.0 percent, 27.0 percent and 25.0
percent; risk-free interest rates of 5.10 percent, 5.42 percent and 5.33 percent
and expected terms of 7 years.
(ii) RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS:During 2001, AIG issued performance-based
restricted stock units with respect to 124,365 shares of AIG common stock in
connection with contractual obligations as a result of the AGC acquisition.
(iii) EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN:AIG's 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
was adopted at its 1996 shareholders' meeting and became effective as of July 1,
1996. Eligible employees may receive privileges to purchase up to an aggregate
of 4,218,750 shares of AIG common stock, at a price equal to 85 percent of the
fair market value on the date of the grant of the purchase privilege. Purchase
privileges are granted annually and were originally limited to the number of
whole shares that could be purchased by an amount equal to 5 percent of an
employee's annual salary or $5,500, whichever was less. Beginning with the
January 1, 1998 subscription, the maximum allowable purchase limitation
increased to 10 percent of an employee's annual salary or $10,000 per year,
whichever is less, and the eligibility requirement was reduced from two years to
one year.

14. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS (continued)
There were 503,847 shares, 742,773 shares and 892,929 shares issued under
the 1996 plan at weighted average prices of $62.02, $52.66 and $38.24 for the
years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The excess or
deficit of the proceeds over the par value or cost of the common stock issued
under these plans was credited or charged to additional paid-in capital.
As of December 31, 2001, there were 654,751 shares of common stock
subscribed to at a weighted average price of $68.55 per share pursuant to grants
of privileges under the 1996 plan. There were 336,020 shares available for the
grant of future purchase privileges under the 1996 plan at December 31, 2001.
The fair values of purchase privileges granted during the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $14 million, $13 million and $13 million,
respectively. The weighted average fair values per share of those purchase
rights granted in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $17.47, $19.36 and $14.04,
respectively. The fair value of each purchase right is estimated on the date of
the subscription using the Black-Scholes model.
The following weighted average assumptions were used for grants in 2001,
2000 and 1999, respectively: dividend yields of 0.20 percent, 0.17 percent and
0.20 percent; expected volatilities of 26.0 percent, 34.0 percent and 34.0
percent; risk-free interest rates of 3.47 percent, 5.95 percent and 5.33
percent; and expected terms of 1 year.
During 1999, there were 42,577 shares of AIG common stock issued under the
SunAmerica Inc. employee stock purchase plan at a weighted average price of
$32.60. There are no further shares available for grant under this plan.
(b) The following are disclosures with respect to the stock compensation
plans of AGC prior to its acquisition by AIG. Both share information and
exercise price information have been recalculated to reflect the exchange ratio
of 0.5790 shares of AIG common stock for each outstanding share of AGC's common
stock. All of AGC's options vested immediately prior to the closing date of the
acquisition.
AGC's long-term incentive plans provide for the award of stock options,
restricted stock awards, and performance awards to key employees and directors.
Stock options constitute the majority of awards. AGC recognized no expense for
stock options since the market price equaled the exercise price at the grant
date.
For restricted stock and performance awards, the grant date market value was
amortized to expense over the vesting period. AGC adjusted the expense to
reflect changes in market value of AGC's common stock and anticipated
performance levels for those awards with performance criteria.
AGC stock option activity was as follows:

Options could not be exercised prior to six months after, nor after 10 years
from, grant date. For certain stock options, one reload option was granted for
each previously-owned share of common stock tendered to exercise options. Reload
options vested immediately and were exercisable for the remaining term of the
original options.
15. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
(a) Employees of AIG, its subsidiaries and certain affiliated companies,
including employees in foreign countries, are generally covered under various
funded and insured pension plans. Eligibility for participation in the various
plans is based on either completion of a specified period of continuous service
or date of hire, subject to age limitation.
The HSB retirement plan was merged into the AIG retirement plan effective
April 1, 2001. The AGC retirement plan was merged into the AIG retirement plan
effective January 1, 2002.
AIG's U.S. retirement plan is a qualified, noncontributory, defined benefit
plan. All qualified employees, other than those of SunAmerica and 21st Century,
who have attained age 21 and completed twelve months of continuous service are
eligible to participate in this plan. An employee with 5 or more years of
service is entitled to pension benefits beginning at normal retirement at age
65. Benefits are based upon a percentage of average final compensation
multiplied by years of credited service limited to 44 years of credited service
with the exception of AGC employees where the credited service limitation is 40
years of credited service. The average final compensation is subject to certain
limitations. Annual funding requirements are determined based on the "projected
unit credit" cost method which attributes a pro rata portion of the total
projected benefit payable at normal retirement to each year of credited service.
AIG has adopted a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (Supplemental Plan)
to provide additional retirement benefits to designated executives and key
employees. Under the Supplemental Plan, the annual benefit, not to exceed 60
percent of average final compensation, accrues at a percentage of average final
pay multiplied for each year of credited service reduced by any benefits from
the current and any predecessor
86
American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
15. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (continued)
retirement plans, Social Security, if any, and from any qualified pension plan
of prior employers. The Supplemental Plan also provides a benefit equal to the
reduction in benefits payable under the AIG retirement plan as a result of
Federal limitations on benefits payable thereunder. Currently, the Supplemental
Plan is unfunded. AGC has adopted a Supplemental Plan which is similar to AIG's.
Eligibility for participation in the various non-U.S. retirement plans is
either based on completion of a specified period of continuous service or date
of hire, subject to age limitation. Where non-U.S. retirement plans are defined
benefit plans, they are generally based on the employees' years of credited
service and average compensation in the years preceding retirement.
In addition to AIG's defined benefit pension plan, AIG and its subsidiaries
provide a postretirement benefit program for medical care and life insurance,
domestically and in certain foreign countries. Eligibility in the various plans
is generally based upon completion of a specified period of eligible service and
reaching a specified age. Benefits vary by geographic location.
AIG's U.S. postretirement medical and life insurance benefits are based upon
the employee electing immediate retirement and having a minimum of ten years of
service. Retirees who were age 65 by May 1, 1989 and their dependents
participate in the medical plan at no cost. Employees who retired after May 1,
1989 and on or prior to January 1, 1993 pay the active employee premium if under
age 65 and 50 percent of the active employee premium if over age 65. Retiree
contributions are subject to adjustment annually. Other cost sharing features of
the medical plan include deductibles, coinsurance and Medicare coordination and
a lifetime maximum benefit of $1.5 million. The lifetime maximum benefit of the
medical plan was increased to $2.0 million effective January 1, 2000. The
maximum life insurance benefit prior to age 70 is $32,500, with a maximum of
$25,000 thereafter.
Effective January 1, 1993, both plans' provisions were amended. Employees who
retire after January 1, 1993 are required to pay the actual cost of the medical
benefits premium reduced by a credit which is based on years of service at
retirement. The life insurance benefit varies by age at retirement from $5,000
for retirement at ages 55 through 59; $10,000 for retirement at ages 60 through
64 and $15,000 for retirement at ages 65 and over.
(b) AIG sponsors a voluntary savings plan for domestic employees (a 401(k)
plan), which, during the three years ended December 31, 2001, provided for
salary reduction contributions by employees and matching contributions by AIG of
up to 6 percent of annual salary depending on the employees' years of service.
(c) SunAmerica sponsors a voluntary savings plan for its employees (the
SunAmerica 401(k) plan), which, during the three years ended December 31, 2001,
provided for salary reduction contributions by qualifying employees and matching
contributions by SunAmerica of up to 4 percent of qualifying employees' annual
salaries. Under an Executive Savings Plan, designated SunAmerica executives also
could defer up to 90 percent of cash compensation during the three years ended
December 31, 2001, and SunAmerica matched 4 percent of the participants' base
salaries deferred.
(d) AGC sponsors a voluntary savings plan for its employees (the AGC 401(k)
plan), which provides for salary reduction contributions by employees and
matching contributions by AGC of up to 4.5 percent of annual salary.
(e) HSB sponsors a voluntary savings plan for its employees (the HSB 401(k)
plan), which provides for salary reduction contributions by employees and
matching contributions by HSB of up to 6 percent of annual salary.
(f) AIG has certain benefits provided to inactive employees who are not
retirees. Certain of these benefits are insured and expensed currently; other
expenses are provided for currently. Such uninsured expenses include medical and
life insurance continuation, and COBRA medical subsidies.

The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation, and fair
value of plan assets for pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in
excess of plan assets were $1.19 billion, $1.06 billion and $499 million,
respectively, as of December 31, 2001 and $360 million, $304 million and $51
million as of December 31, 2000. The principal reason for the increase from 2000
to 2001 was the acquisition of AIG Star Life Insurance Co., Ltd. during 2001.
At December 31, 2001, there were 1.1 million shares of AIG common stock with
a value of $88.8 million included in the plan assets. The benefit plans have
purchased annuity contracts from AIG's subsidiaries to provide $56 million of
future annual benefits to certain AGC retirees.
On December 31, 1998, AIG amended its retirement and postretirement
healthcare plan to provide increased benefits to certain employees who retire
prior to age 65. Assumed healthcare cost trend rates have a significant effect
on the amounts reported for the healthcare plan.
A one-percentage-point change in assumed healthcare cost trend rates would

16. STARR INTERNATIONAL COMPANY, INC. PLAN
Starr International Company, Inc. (SICO) provides a Deferred Compensation Profit
Participation Plan (SICO Plan) to certain AIG employees. The SICO Plan came into
being in 1975 when the voting shareholders and Board of Directors of SICO, a
private holding company whose principal asset consists of AIG common stock,
decided that a portion of the capital value of SICO should be used to provide an
incentive plan for the current and succeeding managements of all American
International companies, including AIG. Participation in the SICO Plan by any
person, and the amount of such participation, is at the sole discretion of
SICO's Board of Directors, and none of the costs of the various benefits
provided under such plan is paid by or charged to AIG. The SICO Plan provides
that shares currently

American International Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
16. STARR INTERNATIONAL COMPANY, INC. PLANS (continued)
owned by SICO may be set aside by SICO for the benefit of the participant and
distributed upon retirement. The SICO Board of Directors may permit an early
pay-out of units under certain circumstances. Prior to pay-out, the participant
is not entitled to vote, dispose of or receive dividends with respect to such
shares, and shares are subject to forfeiture under certain conditions, including
but not limited to the participant's voluntary termination of employment with
AIG prior to normal retirement age. In addition, SICO's Board of Directors may
elect to pay a participant cash in lieu of shares of AIG common stock. If the
expenses of the SICO Plan had been reflected by AIG, the pre-tax amounts accrued
would have been $56.9 million, $78.3 million and $88.1 million for 2001, 2000
and 1999, respectively.
17. LEASES
(a) AIG and its subsidiaries occupy leased space in many locations under various
long-term leases and have entered into various leases covering the long-term use
of data processing equipment.
At December 31, 2001, the future minimum lease payments under operating
leases were as follows:

18. OWNERSHIP AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
(a) OWNERSHIP:The directors and officers of AIG, together with C.V. Starr & Co.,
Inc. (Starr), a private holding company, The Starr Foundation and Starr
International Company, Inc. (SICO), a private holding company, owned or
otherwise controlled approximately 21 percent of the voting stock of AIG at
December 31, 2001. Six directors of AIG also serve as directors of Starr and
SICO.
(b) TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES:During the ordinary course of
business, AIG and its subsidiaries pay commissions to Starr and its subsidiaries
for the production and management of insurance business. There are no
significant receivables from/payables to related parties at December 31, 2001.
Net commission payments to Starr aggregated approximately $77 million in 2001,
$60 million in 2000 and $45 million in 1999, from which Starr is required to pay
commissions due originating brokers and its operating expenses. AIG also
received approximately $14 million in 2001, $13 million in 2000 and $11 million
in 1999 from Starr and paid approximately $42,000 in 2001, $41,000 in 2000 and
$42,000 in 1999 to Starr in rental fees. AIG also received approximately $4

19. SEGMENT INFORMATION
(a) AIG's operations are conducted principally through four business segments.
These segments and their respective operations are as follows:
General Insurance:AIG's general insurance subsidiaries are multiple line
companies writing substantially all lines of property and casualty insurance.
DBG writes substantially all classes of business insurance accepting such
business mainly from insurance brokers. This provides DBG the opportunity to
select specialized markets and retain underwriting control. Any licensed broker
is able to submit business to DBG without the traditional agent-company
contractual relationship, but such broker usually has no authority to commit DBG
to accept a risk. HSB's operations are included in this group.
Transatlantic offers reinsurance capacity both domestically and overseas on
treaty and facultative bases for a full range of property and casualty products.
Personal Lines engages in the mass marketing of personal lines insurance,
primarily private passenger auto, homeowners and personal umbrella coverages.
Mortgage Guaranty provides guaranty insurance primarily on conventional
first mortgage loans on single family dwellings and condominiums.
AIG's Foreign General insurance group accepts risks primarily underwritten
through AIU, a marketing unit consisting of wholly owned agencies and insurance
entities. The Foreign General insurance group also includes business written by
AIG's foreign-based insurance subsidiaries for their own accounts. The Foreign
General group uses various marketing methods to write both business and personal
lines insurance

20. ACQUISITION, RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED CHARGES
During the third quarter of 2001, AGC was consolidated into AIG. One-time
charges in connection with this acquisition totaled $1.36 billion for the third
quarter of 2001. During the second quarter of 2001, AGC incurred $654 million in
connection with the termination of its merger agreement with Prudential plc.
Thus, for the entire year, AIG incurred $2.02 billion of charges in connection
with the acquisition of AGC.
With respect to the charges of $1.36 billion incurred in the third quarter
of 2001, approximately $512 million were related to direct costs of the
acquisition, including $85 million in investment banking, legal and accounting
fees. Direct costs of'$427 million were related to employee severance and other
termination benefits, and other compensation costs related to change in control
agreements with AGC executives. The costs were also based in part on a projected
elimination of' positions, in accordance with AIG's post-business combination
plans, which will enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the combined
operations. The balance of the $1.36 billion represented charges resulting from
post-business combination plans, recognizing that certain assets will have no
future economic benefit or ability to generate future revenues. Such charges
include asset impairment charges related to software, leasehold improvements and
certain goodwill. Also included were certain adjustments associated with
conforming AGC's balances to AIG's existing accounting policies and
methodologies.
Of the $1.36 billion, approximately $305 million has been paid as of
December 31, 2001. The balance is included in Other liabilities.
Less significant, ongoing costs with respect to the integration of
operations will continue to be expensed in future periods as incurred. AIG
expects that these ongoing costs will include costs for the integration of
computer systems, the training and relocation of certain employees and the
consolidation of facilities.
