Liquidity and Capital Resources
OVERVIEW
Liquidity refers to the ability to generate sufficient cash resources to meet the cash requirements of our business operations and payment obligations.
Capital refers to the long-term financial resources available to support the operation of our businesses, fund business growth and cover financial and operational needs that arise from adverse circumstances. Our primary source of ongoing capital generation is derived from the profitability of our insurance subsidiaries. We must comply with numerous constraints on our capital positions. These constraints drive the requirements for capital adequacy at AIG and the individual businesses and are based on internally defined risk tolerances, regulatory requirements, rating agency and creditor expectations and business needs.
For information regarding our liquidity risk framework, see Part II, Item 7. MD&A – Enterprise Risk Management – Risk Appetite, Limits, Identification and Measurement and Part II, Item 7. MD&A – Enterprise Risk Management – Liquidity Risk Management in the 2023 Annual Report.
We believe that we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to satisfy future requirements and meet our obligations to policyholders, customers, creditors and debt-holders, including those arising from reasonably foreseeable contingencies or events. Nevertheless, some circumstances may cause our cash or capital needs to exceed projected liquidity or readily deployable capital resources.
For information regarding risks associated with our liquidity and capital resources, see Part I, Item 1A. – Risk Factors – Liquidity, Capital and Credit in the 2023 Annual Report.
Depending on market conditions, regulatory and rating agency considerations and other factors, we may take various liability and capital management actions. Liability management actions may include, but are not limited to, repurchasing or redeeming outstanding debt, issuing new debt or engaging in debt exchange offers. Capital management actions may include, but are not limited to, issuing preferred stock, paying dividends to our shareholders on AIG Common Stock, par value $2.50 per share (AIG Common Stock) and repurchases of AIG Common Stock.

We made interest payments on our general borrowings totaling $119 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
AIG Dividends
During the three months ended March 31, 2024:
- We made a cash dividend payment of $365.625 per share on AIG’s Series A 5.85% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (Series A Preferred Stock) totaling $7 million.

ANALYSIS OF SOURCES AND USES OF CASH
Operating Cash Flow Activities
Insurance companies generally receive most premiums in advance of the payment of claims or policy benefits. The ability of insurance companies to generate positive cash flow is affected by the frequency and severity of losses under their insurance policies, policy retention rates, effective management of our investment portfolio and operating expense discipline.
Interest payments totaled $181 million and $165 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Excluding interest payments, AIG had operating cash inflows of $700 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to operating cash inflows of $662 million in the prior year period.
Investing Cash Flow Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $308 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $1.5 billion in the prior year period.
Financing Cash Flow Activities
Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $1.1 billion, reflecting:
- $243 million to pay quarterly dividends of $0.36 per share on AIG Common Stock;
- $22 million to pay quarterly dividends of $365.625 per share on AIG’s Series A Preferred Stock and redemption premiums;
- $1.6 billion to repurchase approximately 23 million shares of AIG Common Stock;
- $68 million paid by Corebridge in the form of quarterly cash dividends on Corebridge common stock to shareholders other than AIG;
- $243 million paid by Corebridge to repurchase approximately 9.5 million shares of Corebridge common stock from shareholders other than AIG;
- $461 million in net outflows from the issuance and repayment of long-term debt; and
- $64 million in net outflows from the issuance and repayment of debt of consolidated investment entities.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2023 totaled $817 million reflecting:
- $234 million to pay quarterly dividends of $0.32 per share on AIG Common Stock;
- $7 million to pay quarterly dividends of $365.625 per share on AIG’s Series A Preferred Stock;
- $34 million paid by Corebridge in the form of quarterly cash dividends on Corebridge common stock to shareholders other than AIG;
- $577 million to repurchase approximately 11 million shares of AIG Common Stock;
- $742 million in net inflows from the issuance and repayment of long-term debt; and
- $91 million in net outflows from the issuance and repayment of debt of consolidated investment entities.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF AIG PARENT AND SUBSIDIARIES
AIG Parent
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, AIG Parent and applicable intermediate holding companies had approximately $9.6 billion and $12.1 billion in liquidity sources held in the form of cash, short-term investments and AIG Parent's committed, revolving syndicated credit facility of $4.5 billion. As a public company shareholder of Corebridge, AIG receives its pro rata share of dividends paid by Corebridge on Corebridge common stock. AIG Parent’s primary sources of liquidity are dividends, distributions, loans and other payments from subsidiaries and credit facilities. AIG Parent’s primary uses of liquidity are for debt service, capital and liability management, operating expenses and dividends on AIG Common Stock.
We expect to access the debt and preferred equity markets from time to time to meet funding requirements as needed.
We utilize our capital resources to support our businesses, with the majority of capital allocated to our insurance operations. Should we have or generate more capital than is needed to support our business strategies (including organic or inorganic growth opportunities) or mitigate risks inherent to our business, we may develop plans to distribute such capital to shareholders via dividends or AIG Common Stock repurchase authorizations or deploy such capital towards liability management.
Insurance Companies
We expect that our insurance companies will be able to continue to satisfy reasonably foreseeable future liquidity requirements and meet their obligations, including those arising from reasonably foreseeable contingencies or events, through cash from operations and, to the extent necessary, monetization of invested assets.
Our insurance companies’ liquidity resources are primarily held in the form of cash, short-term investments and publicly traded, investment grade rated fixed maturity securities. Each of our material insurance companies’ liquidity is monitored through various internal liquidity risk measures. The primary sources of liquidity are premiums, fees, reinsurance recoverables and investment income and maturities. Certain of our U.S. Life and Retirement companies also supplement liquidity from time to time through FHLB borrowings (as described below) and securities lending programs. The primary uses of liquidity are paid losses, reinsurance payments, benefit claims, surrenders, withdrawals, interest payments, dividends, expenses, investment purchases and collateral requirements.
Our insurance companies may require additional funding to meet capital or liquidity needs under certain circumstances. For example, large catastrophes may require us to provide additional support to the affected operations of our General Insurance companies, and a shift in interest rates may require us to provide support to the affected operations of our Life and Retirement companies.
Certain of our U.S. Life and Retirement insurance companies are members of the FHLBs in their respective districts. Our borrowings from FHLBs are non-puttable and are used to supplement liquidity or for other uses deemed appropriate by management. Our U.S. Life and Retirement companies had $5.7 billion and $5.7 billion which were due to FHLBs in their respective districts at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, under funding agreements issued through our Individual Retirement, Group Retirement and Institutional Markets operating segments, which were reported in Policyholder contract deposits. Proceeds from funding agreements are generally invested in fixed income securities and other investments intended to generate spread income.
AIG Parent and/or certain subsidiaries are parties to several letter of credit agreements with various financial institutions, which issue letters of credit from time to time in support of our insurance companies. These letters of credit are subject to reimbursement by AIG Parent and/or certain subsidiaries in the event of a drawdown of these letters of credit. Letters of credit issued in support of the General Insurance companies totaled approximately $2.2 billion at March 31, 2024. Letters of credit issued in support of the Life and Retirement companies totaled approximately $191 million at March 31, 2024, which are subject to reimbursement by Corebridge with no recourse to AIG Parent.
CREDIT FACILITIES
AIG Parent maintains a committed, revolving syndicated credit facility (the Facility) with aggregate commitments by the bank syndicate to provide AIG Parent with unsecured revolving loans and/or standby letters of credit of up to $4.5 billion without any limits on the type of borrowings. The Facility is scheduled to expire in November 2026.
Our ability to utilize the Facility is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain legal, operating, administrative and financial covenants and other requirements contained in the Facility. These include covenants relating to our maintenance of a specified total consolidated net worth and total consolidated debt to total consolidated capitalization. Failure to satisfy these and other requirements contained in the Facility would restrict our access to the Facility and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.
As of March 31, 2024, a total of $4.5 billion remained available under the Facility.
Corebridge maintains a committed, revolving syndicated credit facility (the Corebridge Facility) with aggregate commitments by the bank syndicate to provide Corebridge with unsecured revolving loans and/or standby letters of credit of up to $2.5 billion without any limits on the type of borrowings and with no recourse to AIG Parent. The Corebridge Facility is scheduled to expire in May 2027.
As of March 31, 2024, a total of $2.5 billion remained available under the Corebridge Facility.
Corebridge also maintains a 3-Year Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement (the DDTL Facility), which is scheduled to mature in February 2025. As of March 31, 2024, a total of $250 million of borrowings are outstanding under the DDTL Facility, with no recourse to AIG Parent.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
As of March 31, 2024, there have been no material changes in our contractual obligations from December 31, 2023, a description of which may be found in Part II, Item 7. MD&A – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Contractual Obligations in the 2023 Annual Report.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS
As of March 31, 2024, there have been no material changes in our off-balance sheet arrangements and commercial commitments from December 31, 2023, a description of which may be found in Part II, Item 7. MD&A – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Commercial Commitments in the 2023 Annual Report.
DEBT
AIG expects to service and repay general borrowings through maturing investments and dispositions of invested assets, future cash flows from operations, cash flows generated from invested assets, future debt or preferred stock issuances and other financing arrangements.
For additional information on guaranteed investment agreements (GIAs) and associated collateral posted, see Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

CREDIT RATINGS
Credit ratings estimate a company’s ability to meet its obligations and may directly affect the cost and availability of financing to that company. The following table presents the credit ratings of AIG and certain of its subsidiaries as of the date of this filing. Figures in parentheses indicate the relative ranking of the ratings within the agency’s rating categories; that ranking refers only to the major rating category and not to the modifiers assigned by the rating agencies.
| Short-Term Debt | Senior Long-Term Debt | |
| Moody's S&P | Moody's(a) S&P(b) Fitch(c) | |
| American International Group, Inc. | P-2 (2nd of 4) A-2 (2nd of 5) | Baa 2 (4th of 9) / Positive BBB+ (4th of 9) / Positive BBB+ (4th of 9) / Stable |
| Corebridge Financial, Inc. | Baa 2 (4th of 9) / Stable BBB+ (4th of 9) / Stable BBB+ (4th of 9) / Stable |
(a) Moody’s appends numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 to the generic rating categories to show relative position within the rating categories.
(b) S&P ratings may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.
(c) Fitch Ratings Inc. (Fitch) ratings may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.
These credit ratings are current opinions of the rating agencies. They may be changed, suspended or withdrawn at any time by the rating agencies as a result of changes in, or unavailability of, information or based on other circumstances. Ratings may also be withdrawn at our request.
We are party to some agreements that contain “ratings triggers.” Depending on the ratings maintained by one or more rating agencies, these triggers could result in (i) the termination or limitation of credit availability or a requirement for accelerated repayment, (ii) the termination of business contracts or (iii) a requirement to post collateral for the benefit of counterparties.
In the event of a downgrade of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings, certain AIG entities would be required to post additional collateral under some derivative and other transactions, or certain of the counterparties of such AIG entities would be permitted to terminate such transactions early.
The actual amount of collateral that we would be required to post to counterparties in the event of such downgrades, or the aggregate amount of payments that we could be required to make, depends on market conditions, the fair value of outstanding affected transactions and other factors prevailing at the time of the downgrade.
FINANCIAL STRENGTH RATINGS
Financial Strength ratings estimate an insurance company’s ability to pay its obligations under an insurance policy. The following table presents the ratings of our significant insurance subsidiaries as of the date of this filing.

The payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on various factors. For further detail on our dividends, see Note 16 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
REPURCHASES OF AIG COMMON STOCK
Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of shares of AIG Common Stock through a series of actions. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, AIG Parent repurchased approximately 23 million shares of AIG Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.7 billion. Pursuant to an Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plan, from April 1, 2024 to April 26, 2024, we repurchased approximately 7 million shares of AIG Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $558 million. On April 30, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $10.0 billion of AIG Common Stock (inclusive of the approximately $3.9 billion remaining under the Board's prior share repurchase authorization).
The timing of any future share repurchases will depend on market conditions, our business and strategic plans, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and other factors, as discussed further in Note 16 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
Payments of dividends to AIG by its insurance subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions imposed by regulatory authorities.
For information regarding restrictions on payments of dividends by our subsidiaries, see Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2023 Annual Report.
Enterprise Risk Management
Risk management includes the identification and measurement of various forms of risk, the establishment of risk thresholds and the creation of processes intended to maintain risks within these thresholds while optimizing returns. We consider risk management an integral part of managing our core businesses and a key element of our approach to corporate governance.
OVERVIEW
Risk management is an integral part of our business strategy and a key element of our approach to corporate governance. We have an integrated process for managing risks throughout our organization in accordance with our firm-wide risk appetite. Our Board of Directors has oversight responsibility for the management of risk. Our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Department oversees and integrates the risk management functions in each of our business units, providing senior management with a consolidated view of AIG’s major risk positions. ERM embeds risk management in our key day-to-day business processes. Nevertheless, our risk management efforts may not always be successful and material adverse effects on our business, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity or financial condition may occur. For further information regarding the risks associated with our business and operations, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors.
AIG employs a Three Lines of Defense model. AIG’s business leaders assume full accountability for the risks and controls in their segments, and ERM performs a review, challenge and oversight function. The third line consists of our Internal Audit Group that provides independent assurance to AIG’s Board of Directors.
For additional information on AIG’s risk management program, see Part II, Item 7. MD&A ─ Enterprise Risk Management in the 2023 Annual Report.
The scope and magnitude of our market risk exposures is managed under a robust framework that contains defined risk limits and minimum standards for managing market risk in a manner consistent with our risk appetite statement. A description of our market risk exposures may be found in Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk in the 2023 Annual Report. See Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2023 Annual Report on how difficult conditions in the financial markets and the economy generally may materially adversely affect our business and results of our operations.
