Sale of ILFC
|
On May 14, 2014, we completed the sale of 100 percent of the common stock of International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) to AerCap Ireland Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of AerCap Holdings N.V. (AerCap), in exchange for total consideration of approximately $7.6 billion, including cash and 97.6 million newly issued AerCap common shares (the AerCap Transaction). The total value of the consideration was based in part on AerCap’s closing price per share of $47.01 on May 13, 2014. ILFC’s results of operations are reflected in Aircraft leasing revenue and Aircraft leasing expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) through the date of the completion of the sale.
In June 2015, we sold 86.9 million ordinary shares of AerCap by means of an underwritten public offering of 71.2 million ordinary shares and a private sale of 15.7 million ordinary shares to AerCap. We received cash proceeds of approximately $3.7 billion, reflecting proceeds of approximately $3.4 billion from the underwritten offering and cash proceeds of $250 million from the private sale of shares to AerCap. In connection with the closing of the private sale of shares to AerCap, we also received $500 million of 6.50% fixed-to-floating rate junior subordinated notes issued by AerCap Global Aviation Trust and guaranteed by AerCap and certain of its subsidiaries. These notes, included in Bonds available for sale, mature in 2045 and are callable beginning in 2025. We accounted for our interest in AerCap using the equity method of accounting through the date of the June 2015 sale, and as available for sale thereafter. In August 2015, we sold our remaining 10.7 million ordinary shares of AerCap by means of an underwritten public offering and received proceeds of approximately $500 million.

Use of Estimates
|
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. Accounting policies that we believe are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions are considered our critical accounting estimates and are related to the determination of:
• income tax assets and liabilities, including recoverability of our net deferred tax asset and the predictability of future tax operating profitability of the character necessary to realize the net deferred tax asset;
• liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses;
• reinsurance assets;
• valuation of future policy benefit liabilities and timing and extent of loss recognition;
• valuation of liabilities for guaranteed benefit features of variable annuity products;
• estimated gross profits to value deferred acquisition costs for investment-oriented products;
• impairment charges, including other-than-temporary impairments on available for sale securities, impairments on other invested assets, including investments in life settlements, and goodwill impairment;
• liability for legal contingencies; and
• fair value measurements of certain financial assets and liabilities.
These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially affected.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
Accounting Standards Adopted During 2016
|
Accounting for Share-Based Payments with Performance Targets
|
In June 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard that clarifies the accounting for share-based payments when the terms of an award provide that a performance target could be achieved after the requisite service period. The standard requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition.
We adopted the standard prospectively on its required effective date of January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Measuring the Financial Assets and the Financial Liabilities of a Consolidated Collateralized Financing Entity
|
In August 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard that allows a reporting entity to measure the financial assets and financial liabilities of a qualifying consolidated collateralized financing entity using the fair value of either its financial assets or financial liabilities, whichever is more observable.
8
Item 1 / NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
We adopted the standard retrospectively on its required effective date of January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis
|
In February 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard that affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. Specifically, the amendments modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) or voting interest entities; eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership; affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships; and provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for registered money market funds.
We adopted the standard prospectively on its required effective date of January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement
|
In April 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard that provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The guidance does not change generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a customer's accounting for service contracts. Consequently, all software licenses will be accounted for consistent with other licenses of intangible assets.
We adopted this standard prospectively on its required effective date of January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs
|
In April 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard that amends the guidance for debt issuance costs by requiring such costs to be presented as a deduction to the corresponding debt liability, rather than as an asset, and for the amortization of such costs to be reported as interest expense. The amendments are intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs and make it consistent with the presentation of debt discounts or premiums. The amendments, however, do not change the recognition and measurement guidance applicable to debt issuance costs.
We adopted this standard on a retrospective basis on January 1, 2016, its required effective date. Because the new standard did not affect accounting recognition or measurement of debt issuance costs, the adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or its Equivalent)
In May 2015, the FASB amended guidance on fair value disclosures for investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value (NAV) per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient. The amendments in this update remove the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the NAV per
9
Item 1 / NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
share practical expedient. In addition, the amendment removes the requirement to make certain disclosures for all investments that are eligible to be measured at fair value using the NAV per share as a practical expedient.
We adopted the standard on its required effective date of January 1, 2016 on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Future Application of Accounting Standards
|
Revenue Recognition
|
In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard that supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance. The standard excludes from its scope the accounting for insurance contracts, leases, financial instruments, and certain other agreements that are governed under other GAAP guidance, but could affect the revenue recognition for certain of our other activities.
The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and may be applied retrospectively or through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. We plan to adopt the standard on its required effective date of January 1, 2018 and are assessing the impact of the standard on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Short Duration Insurance Contracts
|
In May 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard that requires additional disclosures (including accident year information) for short-duration insurance contracts. New disclosures about the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses will be required of public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The annual disclosures by accident year include: disaggregated net incurred and paid claims development tables segregated by business type (not required to exceed 10 years), reconciliation of total net reserves included in development tables to the reported liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, incurred but not reported (IBNR) information, quantitative information and a qualitative description about claim frequency, and the average annual percentage payout of incurred claims. Further, the new standard requires, when applicable, disclosures about discounting liabilities for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses and significant changes and reasons for changes in methodologies and assumptions used to determine unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses. In addition, the roll forward of the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses currently disclosed in annual financial statements will be required for interim periods beginning in the first quarter of 2017. Early adoption of the new annual and interim disclosures is permitted.
We plan to adopt the standard on its required effective date. Because the new standard does not affect accounting recognition or measurement, the adoption of the standard will have no effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

(unaudited)
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
|
In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard that affects the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Specifically, under the new standard, equity investments (other than those accounted for using the equity method of accounting or those subject to consolidation) will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Also, for those financial liabilities for which fair value option accounting has been elected, the new standard requires changes in fair value due to instrument-specific credit risk to be presented separately in other comprehensive income. The standard updates certain fair value disclosure requirements for financial instruments carried at amortized cost.
The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption of certain provisions is permitted. We are assessing the impact of the standard on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Leases
|
In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard that will require lessees with lease terms of more than 12 months to recognize a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on their balance sheets. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating leases or finance leases.
The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted using a modified retrospective approach. We expect to adopt this guidance when effective and are currently assessing the impact of the standard on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
|
We report our results of operations consistent with the manner in which our chief operating decision makers review the business to assess performance and allocate resources through two reportable segments: Commercial Insurance and Consumer Insurance as well as a Corporate and Other category. The Corporate and Other category consists of businesses and items not allocated to our reportable segments.
We evaluate performance based on revenues and pre‑tax operating income (loss). Pre-tax operating income (loss) is derived by excluding certain items from net income (loss) attributable to AIG. See the table below for the items excluded from pre-tax operating income (loss).

Item 1 / NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
|
Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis
|
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are measured and classified in accordance with a fair value hierarchy consisting of three “levels” based on the observability of valuation inputs:
· Level 1: Fair value measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that we have the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets. We do not adjust the quoted price for such instruments.
· Level 2: Fair value measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
· Level 3: Fair value measurements based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable. Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair values of positions classified in Level 3. The circumstances for using these measurements include those in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Therefore, we must make certain assumptions about the inputs a hypothetical market participant would use to value that asset or liability.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

(a) Excludes investments that are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent), which totaled $7.7 billion and $8.6 billion as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
(b) Represents netting of derivative exposures covered by qualifying master netting agreements.
Transfers of Level 1 and Level 2 Assets and Liabilities
|
Our policy is to record transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 at their fair values as of the end of each reporting period, consistent with the date of the determination of fair value. Assets are transferred out of Level 1 when they are no longer transacted with sufficient frequency and volume in an active market. Conversely, assets are transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 when transaction volume and frequency are indicative of an active market.
During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we transferred $83 million and $72 million, respectively, of securities issued by Non-U.S. government entities from Level 1 to Level 2, because they are no longer considered actively traded. For similar reasons, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, we transferred $115 million of securities issued by the U.S. government and government sponsored entities from Level 1 to Level 2; there were no such transfers during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. We had no material transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Item 1 / NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair values of positions classified in Level 3 in the tables above. As a result, the unrealized gains (losses) on instruments held at March 31, 2016 and 2015 may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable inputs (e.g., changes in unobservable long-dated volatilities).
Transfers of Level 3 Assets and Liabilities
|
We record transfers of assets and liabilities into or out of Level 3 classification at their fair values as of the end of each reporting period, consistent with the date of the determination of fair value. The Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in income (loss) or Other comprehensive income (loss) as shown in the table above excludes $13 million of net losses and $18 million of net gains related to assets and liabilities transferred into Level 3 during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and includes $45 million of net losses and $3 million of net gains related to assets and liabilities transferred out of Level 3 during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
|
During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, transfers into Level 3 assets primarily included certain investments private placement corporate debt, RMBS and CDO/ABS. Transfers of private placement corporate debt and certain ABS into Level 3 assets were primarily the result of limited market pricing information that required us to determine fair value for these securities based on inputs that are adjusted to better reflect our own assumptions regarding the characteristics of a specific security or associated market liquidity. The transfers of investments in RMBS and CDO and certain ABS into Level 3 assets were due to decreases in market transparency and liquidity for individual security types.
During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, transfers out of Level 3 assets primarily included private placement and other corporate debt, CMBS, CDO/ABS, RMBS and certain investments in municipal securities. Transfers of certain investments municipal securities, corporate debt, RMBS, CMBS and CDO/ABS out of Level 3 assets were based on consideration of market liquidity as well as related transparency of pricing and associated observable inputs for these investments. Transfers of certain investments in private placement corporate debt and certain ABS out of Level 3 assets were primarily the result of using observable pricing information that reflects the fair value of those securities without the need for adjustment based on our own assumptions regarding the characteristics of a specific security or the current liquidity in the market.
|
There were no significant transfers of derivative or other liabilities into or out of Level 3 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Quantitative Information About Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
|
The table below presents information about the significant unobservable inputs used for recurring fair value measurements for certain Level 3 instruments, and includes only those instruments for which information about the inputs is reasonably available to us, such as data from independent third‑party valuation service providers and from internal valuation models. Because input information from third‑parties with respect to certain Level 3 instruments (primarily CDO/ABS) may not be reasonably available to us, balances shown below may not equal total amounts reported for such Level 3 assets and liabilities:

(a) Information received from third-party valuation service providers. The ranges of the unobservable inputs for constant prepayment rate, loss severity and constant default rate relate to each of the individual underlying mortgage loans that comprise the entire portfolio of securities in the RMBS and CDO securitization vehicles and not necessarily to the securitization vehicle bonds (tranches) purchased by us. The ranges of these inputs do not directly correlate to changes in the fair values of the tranches purchased by us, because there are other factors relevant to the fair values of specific tranches owned by us including, but not limited to, purchase price, position in the waterfall, senior versus subordinated position and attachment points.
(b) Represents discount rates, estimates and assumptions that we believe would be used by market participants when valuing these assets and liabilities.
(c) Mortality inputs are shown as multipliers of the 2012 Individual Annuity Mortality Basic table for GMWB and GMAB, and the 1975-1980 Modified Basic Table for index annuities.
The ranges of reported inputs for Obligations of states, municipalities and political subdivisions, Corporate debt, RMBS, CDO/ABS, and CMBS valued using a discounted cash flow technique consist of one standard deviation in either direction from the value‑weighted average. The preceding table does not give effect to our risk management practices that might offset risks inherent in these Level 3 assets and liabilities.

(unaudited)
Sensitivity to Changes in Unobservable Inputs
|
We consider unobservable inputs to be those for which market data is not available and that are developed using the best information available to us about the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. Relevant inputs vary depending on the nature of the instrument being measured at fair value. The following paragraphs provide a general description of sensitivities of significant unobservable inputs along with interrelationships between and among the significant unobservable inputs and their impact on the fair value measurements. The effect of a change in a particular assumption in the sensitivity analysis below is considered independently of changes in any other assumptions. In practice, simultaneous changes in assumptions may not always have a linear effect on the inputs discussed below. Interrelationships may also exist between observable and unobservable inputs. Such relationships have not been included in the discussion below. For each of the individual relationships described below, the inverse relationship would also generally apply.
Obligations of States, Municipalities and Political Subdivisions
|
The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of certain investments in obligations of states, municipalities and political subdivisions is yield. In general, increases in the yield would decrease the fair value of investments in obligations of states, municipalities and political subdivisions.
Corporate Debt
|
Corporate debt securities included in Level 3 are primarily private placement issuances that are not traded in active markets or that are subject to transfer restrictions. Fair value measurements consider illiquidity and non‑transferability. When observable price quotations are not available, fair value is determined based on discounted cash flow models using discount rates based on credit spreads, yields or price levels of publicly‑traded debt of the issuer or other comparable securities, considering illiquidity and structure. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of corporate debt is the yield. The yield is affected by the market movements in credit spreads and U.S. Treasury yields. In addition, the migration in credit quality of a given security generally has a corresponding effect on the fair value measurement of the security. For example, a downward migration of credit quality would increase spreads. Holding U.S. Treasury rates constant, an increase in corporate credit spreads would decrease the fair value of corporate debt.
RMBS and CDO/ABS
|
The significant unobservable inputs used in fair value measurements of RMBS and certain CDO/ABS valued by third‑party valuation service providers are constant prepayment rates (CPR), loss severity, constant default rates (CDR), and yield. A change in the assumptions used for the probability of default will generally be accompanied by a corresponding change in the assumption used for the loss severity and an inverse change in the assumption used for prepayment rates. In general, increases in CPR, loss severity, CDR, and yield, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement. Changes in fair value based on variations in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship between the directional change of each input is not usually linear.
24
Item 1 / NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
CMBS
|
The significant unobservable input used in fair value measurements for CMBS is the yield. Prepayment assumptions for each mortgage pool are factored into the yield. CMBS generally feature a lower degree of prepayment risk than RMBS because commercial mortgages generally contain a penalty for prepayment. In general, increases in the yield would decrease the fair value of CMBS.
Embedded derivatives within Policyholder contract deposits
|
Embedded derivatives reported within Policyholder contract deposits include guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (GMWB) and guaranteed minimum accumulation benefits (GMAB) within variable annuity products, and interest crediting rates based on market indices within index annuities, indexed life and guaranteed investment contracts (GICs). For any given contract, assumptions for unobservable inputs vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for purposes of valuing the embedded derivative. The following unobservable inputs are used for valuing embedded derivatives measured at fair value:
• Long-term equity volatilities represent equity volatility beyond the period for which observable equity volatilities are available. Increases in assumed volatility will generally increase the fair value of both the projected cash flows from rider fees as well as the projected cash flows related to benefit payments. Therefore, the net change in the fair value of the liability may be either a decrease or an increase, depending on the relative changes in projected rider fees and projected benefit payments.
• Equity / interest rate correlation estimates the relationship between changes in equity returns and interest rates in the economic scenario generator used to value our GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives. In general, a higher positive correlation assumes that equity markets and interest rates move in a more correlated fashion, which generally increases the fair value of the liability.
• Base lapse rate assumptions are determined by company experience and are adjusted at the contract level using a dynamic lapse function, which reduces the base lapse rate when the contract is in-the-money (when the contract holder’s guaranteed value is worth more than their underlying account value). Lapse rates are also generally assumed to be lower in periods when a surrender charge applies. Increases in assumed lapse rates will generally decrease the fair value of the liability, as fewer policyholders would persist to collect guaranteed withdrawal amounts, but in certain scenarios, increases in assumed lapse rates may increase the fair value of the liability.
• Mortality rate assumptions, which vary by age and gender, are based on company experience and include a mortality improvement assumption. Increases in assumed mortality rates will decrease the fair value of the liability, while lower mortality rate assumptions will generally increase the fair value of the liability, because guaranteed payments will be made for a longer period of time.
• Utilization rate assumptions estimate the timing when policyholders with a GMWB will elect to utilize their benefit and begin taking withdrawals. The assumptions may vary by the type of guarantee, tax-qualified status, the contract’s withdrawal history and the age of the policyholder. Utilization rate assumptions are based on company experience, which includes partial withdrawal behavior. Increases in assumed utilization rates will generally increase the fair value of the liability.

Private equity fund investments included above are not redeemable, because distributions from the funds will be received when underlying investments of the funds are liquidated. Private equity funds are generally expected to have 10‑year lives at their inception, but these lives may be extended at the fund manager’s discretion, typically in one- or two‑year increments. At March 31, 2016, assuming average original expected lives of 10 years for the funds, 79 percent of the total fair value using NAV per share (or its equivalent) presented above would have expected remaining lives of three years or less, 10 percent between four and six years and 11 percent between seven and 10 years.

The hedge fund investments included above are generally redeemable monthly (13 percent), quarterly (47 percent), semi‑annually (10 percent) and annually (30 percent), with redemption notices ranging from one day to 180 days. At March 31, 2016, however, investments representing approximately 73 percent of the total fair value of the hedge fund investments cannot be redeemed, either in whole or in part, because the investments include various contractual restrictions. The majority of these contractual restrictions, which may have been put in place at the fund’s inception or thereafter, have pre‑defined end dates and are generally expected to be lifted by the end of 2017. The fund investments for which redemption is restricted only in part generally relate to certain hedge funds that hold at least one investment that the fund manager deems to be illiquid.

(b) Includes GIAs, notes, bonds and mortgages payable.
We recognized gains of $5 million and $6 million during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, attributable to the observable effect of changes in credit spreads on our own liabilities for which the fair value option was elected. We calculate the effect of these credit spread changes using discounted cash flow techniques that incorporate current market interest rates, our observable credit spreads on these liabilities and other factors that mitigate the risk of nonperformance such as cash collateral posted.
The following table presents the difference between fair values and the aggregate contractual principal amounts of mortgage and other loans receivable and long-term debt for which the fair value option was elected:

Item 1 / NOTE 5. INVESTMENTS
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
At March 31, 2016, we held 9,760 and 128 individual fixed maturity and equity securities, respectively, that were in an unrealized loss position, of which 2,931 individual fixed maturity securities were in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or more. We did not recognize the unrealized losses in earnings on these fixed maturity securities at March 31, 2016 because we neither intend to sell the securities nor do we believe that it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis. For fixed maturity securities with significant declines, we performed fundamental credit analyses on a security-by-security basis, which included consideration of credit enhancements, expected defaults on underlying collateral, review of relevant industry analyst reports and forecasts and other available market data.

Purchased Credit Impaired (PCI) Securities
|
We purchase certain RMBS securities that have experienced deterioration in credit quality since their issuance. We determine, based on our expectations as to the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be received, whether it is probable at acquisition that we will not collect all contractually required payments for these PCI securities, including both principal and interest after considering the effects of prepayments. At acquisition, the timing and amount of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be received on each PCI security is determined based on our best estimate using key assumptions, such as interest rates, default rates and prepayment speeds. At acquisition, the difference between the undiscounted expected future cash flows of the PCI securities and the recorded investment in the securities represents the initial accretable yield, which is accreted into Net investment income over their remaining lives on a level-yield basis. Additionally, the difference between the contractually required payments on the PCI securities and the undiscounted expected future cash flows represents the non-accretable difference at acquisition. The accretable yield and the non-accretable difference will change over time, based on actual payments received and changes in estimates of undiscounted expected future cash flows, which are discussed further below.
On a quarterly basis, the undiscounted expected future cash flows associated with PCI securities are re-evaluated based on updates to key assumptions. Declines in undiscounted expected future cash flows due to further credit deterioration as well as changes in the expected timing of the cash flows can result in the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment charge, as PCI securities are subject to our policy for evaluating investments for other-than-temporary impairment. Changes to undiscounted expected future cash flows due solely to the changes in the contractual benchmark interest rates on variable rate PCI securities will change the accretable yield prospectively. Significant increases in undiscounted expected future cash flows for reasons other than interest rate changes are recognized prospectively as adjustments to the accretable yield.

Secured Financing and Similar Arrangements
|
We enter into secured financing transactions whereby certain securities are sold under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements), in which we transfer securities in exchange for cash, with an agreement by us to repurchase the same or substantially similar securities. Our secured financing transactions also include those that involve the transfer of securities to financial institutions in exchange for cash (securities lending agreements). In all of these secured financing transactions, the securities transferred by us (pledged collateral) may be sold or repledged by the counterparties. These agreements are recorded at their contracted amounts plus accrued interest, other than those that are accounted for at fair value.
Pledged collateral levels are monitored daily and are generally maintained at an agreed-upon percentage of the fair value of the amounts borrowed during the life of the transactions. In the event of a decline in the fair value of the pledged collateral under these secured financing transactions, we may be required to transfer cash or additional securities as pledged collateral under these agreements. At the termination of the transactions, we and our counterparties are obligated to return the amounts borrowed and the securities transferred, respectively.
The following table presents the fair value of securities pledged to counterparties under secured financing transactions, including repurchase and securities lending agreements:

We also enter into agreements in which securities are purchased by us under agreements to resell (reverse repurchase agreements), which are accounted for as secured financing transactions and reported as short-term investments or other assets, depending on their terms. These agreements are recorded at their contracted resale amounts plus accrued interest, other than those that are accounted for at fair value. In all reverse repurchase transactions, we take possession of or obtain a security interest in the related securities, and we have the right to sell or repledge this collateral received.

Insurance – Statutory and Other Deposits
|
Total carrying values of cash and securities deposited by our insurance subsidiaries under requirements of regulatory authorities or other insurance-related arrangements, including certain annuity-related obligations and certain reinsurance treaties, were $5.5 billion and $4.9 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
Other Pledges and Restrictions
|
Certain of our subsidiaries are members of Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLBs) and such membership requires the members to own stock in these FHLBs. We owned an aggregate of $47 million of stock in FHLBs at both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. In addition, our subsidiaries have pledged securities available for sale with a fair value of $2.1 billion and $1.2 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, associated with advances from the FHLBs.
Certain GIAs have provisions that require collateral to be posted or payments to be made by us upon a downgrade of our long-term debt ratings. The actual amount of collateral required to be posted to the counterparties in the event of such downgrades, and the aggregate amount of payments that we could be required to make, depend on market conditions, the fair value of outstanding affected transactions and other factors prevailing at and after the time of the downgrade. The fair value of securities pledged as collateral with respect to these obligations was approximately $2.4 billion at both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. This collateral primarily consists of securities of the U.S. government and government sponsored entities and generally cannot be repledged or resold by the counterparties.
Short-term investments held in escrow accounts or otherwise subject to restriction as to their use were $496 million and $439 million at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

* Of the total allowance, $12 million and $45 million relate to individually assessed credit losses on $298 million and $131 million of commercial mortgage loans at March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, loans with a carrying value of $65 million were modified in troubled debt restructurings. No loans were modified in troubled debt restructurings during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016.

We enter into various arrangements with VIEs in the normal course of business and consolidate the VIEs when we determine we are the primary beneficiary. This analysis includes a review of the VIE’s capital structure, related contractual relationships and terms, nature of the VIE’s operations and purpose, nature of the VIE’s interests issued and our involvement with the entity. When assessing the need to consolidate a VIE, we evaluate the design of the VIE as well as the related risks the entity was designed to expose the variable interest holders to.
The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the entity that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

(a) Comprised primarily of Short-term investments and Other assets at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
(b) The assets of each VIE can be used only to settle specific obligations of that VIE.
(c) Comprised primarily of Other liabilities and Derivative liabilities, at fair value, at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
(d) At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, off-balance sheet exposure primarily consisting of commitments to real estate and investment entities was $113 million and $131 million, respectively.
We calculate our maximum exposure to loss to be (i) the amount invested in the debt or equity of the VIE, (ii) the notional amount of VIE assets or liabilities where we have also provided credit protection to the VIE with the VIE as the referenced obligation, and (iii) other commitments and guarantees to the VIE. Interest holders in VIEs sponsored by us generally have recourse only to the assets and cash flows of the VIEs and do not have recourse to us, except in limited circumstances when we have provided a guarantee to the VIE’s interest holders.

(a) At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $14.4 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively, of our total unconsolidated VIE assets were recorded as Other invested assets.
(b) These amounts primarily represent our estimate of the maximum exposure to loss under certain insurance policies issued to VIEs if a hypothetical loss occurred to the extent of the full amount of the insured value. Our insurance policies cover defined risks and our estimate of liability is included in our insurance reserves on the balance sheet.
(c) As discussed in Note 2, on January 1, 2016, we adopted accounting guidance that resulted in an increase in the number of our investment entities classified as VIEs.
(d) Comprised primarily of hedge funds and private equity funds.
See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2015 Annual Report for additional information on VIEs.
8. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGE ACCOUNTING
|
We use derivatives and other financial instruments as part of our financial risk management programs and as part of our investment operations. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2015 Annual Report for a discussion of our accounting policies and procedures regarding derivatives and hedge accounting.
Our businesses use derivatives and other instruments as part of their financial risk management. Interest rate derivatives (such as interest rate swaps) are used to manage interest rate risk associated with embedded derivatives contained in insurance contract liabilities, fixed maturity securities, outstanding medium‑ and long‑term notes as well as other interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Foreign exchange derivatives (principally foreign exchange forwards and options) are used to economically mitigate risk associated with non‑U.S. dollar denominated debt, net capital exposures, and foreign currency transactions. Equity derivatives are used to mitigate financial risk embedded in certain insurance liabilities. The derivatives are effective economic hedges of the exposures that they are meant to offset.
In addition to hedging activities, we also enter into derivative instruments with respect to investment operations, which may include, among other things, CDSs and purchases of investments with embedded derivatives, such as equity‑linked notes and convertible bonds.

(a) Fair value amounts are shown before the effects of counterparty netting adjustments and offsetting cash collateral.
(b) As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, included super senior multi-sector CDOs with a net notional amount of $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion (fair value liability of $468 million and $483 million), respectively. The expected weighted average maturity as of March 31, 2016 is six years. Because of long-term maturities of the CDSs in the portfolio, we are unable to make reasonable estimates of the periods during which any payments would be made. However, the net notional amount represents the maximum exposure to loss on the portfolio. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were no super senior corporate debt/CLOs remaining.
(c) Consists primarily of stable value wraps and contracts with multiple underlying exposures.
(d) Represents netting of derivative exposures covered by a qualifying master netting agreement.
(e) Represents cash collateral posted and received that is eligible for netting.
(f) Freestanding derivatives only, excludes Embedded derivatives. Derivative instrument assets and liabilities are recorded in Other Assets and Liabilities, respectively. Fair value of assets related to bifurcated Embedded derivatives was $0 at both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Fair value of liabilities related to bifurcated Embedded derivatives was $3.3 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. A bifurcated Embedded derivative is generally presented with the host contract in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Embedded derivatives are primarily related to guarantee features in variable annuity products, which include equity and interest rate components.

We engage in derivative transactions that are not subject to a clearing requirement directly with unaffiliated third parties, in most cases, under International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (ISDA) Master Agreements. Many of the ISDA Master Agreements also include Credit Support Annex (CSA) provisions, which provide for collateral postings that may vary at various ratings and threshold levels. We attempt to reduce our risk with certain counterparties by entering into agreements that enable collateral to be obtained from a counterparty on an upfront or contingent basis. We minimize the risk that counterparties might be unable to fulfill their contractual obligations by monitoring counterparty credit exposure and collateral value and generally requiring additional collateral to be posted upon the occurrence of certain events or circumstances. In addition, certain derivative transactions have provisions that require collateral to be posted upon a downgrade of our long‑term debt ratings or give the counterparty the right to terminate the transaction. In the case of some of the derivative transactions, upon a downgrade of our long‑term debt ratings, as an alternative to posting collateral and subject to certain conditions, we may
42
Item 1 / NOTE 8. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGE ACCOUNTING
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
assign the transaction to an obligor with higher debt ratings or arrange for a substitute guarantee of our obligations by an obligor with higher debt ratings or take other similar action. The actual amount of collateral required to be posted 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 and after the time of the downgrade.
Collateral posted by us to third parties for derivative transactions was $3.3 billion and $3.0 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. In the case of collateral posted under derivative transactions that are not subject to clearing, this collateral can generally be repledged or resold by the counterparties. Collateral provided to us from third parties for derivative transactions was $2.1 billion and $1.6 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. In the case of collateral provided to us under derivative transactions that are not subject to clearing, we generally can repledge or resell collateral.
|
We have elected to present all derivative receivables and derivative payables, and the related cash collateral received and paid, on a net basis on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets when a legally enforceable ISDA Master Agreement exists between us and our derivative counterparty. An ISDA Master Agreement is an agreement governing multiple derivative transactions between two counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement generally provides for the net settlement of all, or a specified group, of these derivative transactions, as well as transferred collateral, through a single payment, and in a single currency, as applicable. The net settlement provisions apply in the event of a default on, or affecting any, one derivative transaction or a termination event affecting all, or a specified group of, derivative transactions governed by the ISDA Master Agreement.
Hedge Accounting
|
We designated certain derivatives entered into with third parties as fair value hedges of available for sale investment securities held by our insurance subsidiaries. The fair value hedges include foreign currency forwards and cross currency swaps designated as hedges of the change in fair value of foreign currency denominated available for sale securities attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates. We also designated certain interest rate swaps entered into with third parties as fair value hedges of fixed rate GICs attributable to changes in benchmark interest rates.
We use foreign currency denominated debt and cross-currency swaps as hedging instruments in net investment hedge relationships to mitigate the foreign exchange risk associated with our non-U.S. dollar functional currency foreign subsidiaries. For net investment hedge relationships where issued debt is used as a hedging instrument, we assess the hedge effectiveness and measure the amount of ineffectiveness based on changes in spot rates. For net investment hedge relationships that use derivatives as hedging instruments, we assess hedge effectiveness and measure hedge ineffectiveness using changes in forward rates. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recognized gains (losses) of $(5) million and $94 million, respectively, included in Change in foreign currency translation adjustment in Other comprehensive income related to the net investment hedge relationships.
A qualitative methodology is utilized to assess hedge effectiveness for net investment hedges, while regression analysis is employed for all other hedges.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features
|
The aggregate fair value of our derivative instruments that contain credit risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, was approximately $2.2 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively. The aggregate fair value of assets posted as collateral under these contracts at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, was $2.3 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively.
We estimate that at March 31, 2016, based on our outstanding financial derivative transactions, a downgrade of our long-term senior debt ratings to BBB+, BBB or BBB– by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, a subsidiary of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and/or a downgrade to Baa2 or Baa3 by Moody’s Investors’ Service, Inc. would permit counterparties to make additional collateral calls and permit certain counterparties to elect early termination of contracts, resulting in corresponding collateral postings and termination payments in the total amount of up to approximately $148 million.
Additional collateral postings upon downgrade are estimated based on the factors in the individual collateral posting provisions of the CSA with each counterparty and current exposure as of March 31, 2016. Factors considered in estimating the termination payments upon downgrade include current market conditions and the terms of the respective CSA provisions. Our estimates are also based on the assumption that counterparties will terminate based on their net exposure to us. The actual termination payments could differ from our estimates given market conditions at the time of downgrade and the level of uncertainty in estimating both the number of counterparties who may elect to exercise their right to terminate and the payment that may be triggered in connection with any such exercise.

Hybrid Securities with Embedded Credit Derivatives
|
We invest in hybrid securities (such as credit‑linked notes) with the intent of generating income, and not specifically to acquire exposure to embedded derivative risk. As is the case with our other investments in RMBS, CMBS, CDOs and ABS, our investments in these hybrid securities are exposed to losses only up to the amount of our initial investment in the hybrid security. Other than our initial investment in the hybrid securities, we have no further obligation to make payments on the embedded credit derivatives in the related hybrid securities.
We elect to account for our investments in these hybrid securities with embedded written credit derivatives at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in Net investment income and Other income. Our investments in these hybrid securities are reported as Other bond securities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of these hybrid securities were $5.3 billion and $5.7 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. These securities have par amounts of $10.9 billion and $11.2 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and have remaining stated maturity dates that extend to 2052.
9. CONTINGENCIES, COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES
|
In the normal course of business, various contingent liabilities and commitments are entered into by AIG and our subsidiaries. In addition, AIG Parent guarantees various obligations of certain subsidiaries.
Although AIG cannot currently quantify its ultimate liability for unresolved litigation and investigation matters, including those referred to below, it is possible that such liability could have a material adverse effect on AIG’s consolidated financial condition or its consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows for an individual reporting period.
Legal Contingencies
|
Overview. In the normal course of business, AIG and our subsidiaries are, like others in the insurance and financial services industries in general, subject to litigation, including claims for punitive damages. In our insurance and mortgage guaranty operations, litigation arising from claims settlement activities is generally considered in the establishment of our liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses. However, the potential for increasing jury awards and settlements makes it difficult to assess the ultimate outcome of such litigation. AIG is also subject to derivative, class action and other claims asserted by its shareholders and others alleging, among other things, breach of fiduciary duties by its directors and officers and violations of insurance laws and regulations, as well as federal and state securities laws. In the case of any derivative action brought on behalf of AIG, any recovery would accrue to the benefit of AIG.
Various regulatory and governmental agencies have been reviewing certain transactions and practices of AIG and our subsidiaries in connection with industry-wide and other inquiries into, among other matters, certain business practices of current and former operating insurance subsidiaries. We have cooperated, and will continue to cooperate, in producing documents and other information in response to subpoenas and other requests.
AIG’s Subprime Exposure, AIGFP Credit Default Swap Portfolio and Related Matters
|
AIG, AIG Financial Products Corp. and related subsidiaries (collectively AIGFP), and certain directors and officers of AIG, AIGFP and other AIG subsidiaries have been named in various actions relating to our exposure to the U.S. residential subprime mortgage market, unrealized market valuation losses on AIGFP’s super senior credit default swap portfolio, losses

and liquidity constraints relating to our securities lending program and related disclosure and other matters (Subprime Exposure Issues).
Consolidated 2008 Securities Litigation. On May 19, 2009, a consolidated class action complaint, resulting from the consolidation of eight purported securities class actions filed between May 2008 and January 2009, was filed against AIG and certain directors and officers of AIG and AIGFP, AIG’s outside auditors, and the underwriters of various securities offerings in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the Southern District of New York) in In re American International Group, Inc. 2008 Securities Litigation (the Consolidated 2008 Securities Litigation), asserting claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and claims under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), for allegedly materially false and misleading statements in AIG’s public disclosures from March 16, 2006 to September 16, 2008 relating to, among other things, the Subprime Exposure Issues.
On July 15, 2014 and August 1, 2014, lead plaintiff, AIG and AIG’s outside auditor accepted mediators’ proposals to settle the Consolidated 2008 Securities Litigation against all defendants. On October 22, 2014, AIG made a cash payment of $960 million, which is being held in escrow until all funds are distributed. On March 20, 2015, the Court issued an Order and Final Judgment approving the class settlement and dismissing the action with prejudice, and the AIG settlement became final on June 29, 2015.
Individual Securities Litigations. Between November 18, 2011 and February 9, 2015, eleven separate, though similar, securities actions (Individual Securities Litigations) were filed asserting claims substantially similar to those in the Consolidated 2008 Securities Litigation against AIG and certain directors and officers of AIG and AIGFP. Two of the actions were voluntarily dismissed. On September 10, 2015, the Southern District of New York granted AIG’s motion to dismiss some of the claims in the Individual Securities Litigations in whole or in part. AIG has settled seven of the nine remaining actions.
On March 27, 2015, an additional securities action was filed in state court in Orange County, California asserting a claim against AIG pursuant to Section 11 of the Securities Act (the California Action) that is substantially similar to those in the Consolidated 2008 Securities Litigation and the two remaining Individual Securities Litigations pending in the Southern District of New York. On July 10, 2015, AIG filed a motion to stay the California Action. On September 18, 2015, the court denied AIG’s motion to stay the California Action. On October 23, 2015, AIG filed an appeal of the court’s denial. On January 28, 2016, the California appellate court summarily denied AIG’s appeal. On February 8, 2016, AIG filed a petition for review in the California Supreme Court, which was denied on March 30, 2016. On April 11, 2016, AIG filed a demurrer to dismiss all of the claims asserted in the California Action.
On April 29, 2015, AIG filed a complaint for declaratory relief in the Southern District of New York seeking a declaration that the Section 11 claims filed in the California Action are time-barred (the SDNY Action). On July 10, 2015, AIG filed a motion for summary judgment and the plaintiff in the California Action cross moved to dismiss the SDNY Action. On April 18, 2016, the court in the SDNY Action granted the plaintiff’s motion to dismiss, and denied AIG’s motion for summary judgment as moot.
We have accrued our current estimate of probable loss with respect to these litigations.
Starr International Litigation
|
On November 21, 2011, Starr International Company, Inc. (SICO) filed a complaint against the United States in the United States Court of Federal Claims (the Court of Federal Claims), bringing claims, both individually and on behalf of the classes defined below and derivatively on behalf of AIG (the SICO Treasury Action). The complaint challenges the government’s assistance of AIG, pursuant to which AIG entered into a credit facility with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the FRBNY, and such credit facility, the FRBNY Credit Facility) and the United States received an approximately 80 percent ownership in AIG. The complaint alleges that the interest rate imposed on AIG and the appropriation of approximately 80 percent of AIG’s equity was discriminatory, unprecedented, and inconsistent with liquidity assistance offered by the government to other comparable firms at the time and violated the Equal Protection, Due Process, and Takings Clauses of the U.S. Constitution.

In the SICO Treasury Action, the only claims naming AIG as a party (as a nominal defendant) are derivative claims on behalf of AIG. On September 21, 2012, SICO made a pre‑litigation demand on our Board demanding that we pursue the derivative claims or allow SICO to pursue the claims on our behalf. On January 9, 2013, our Board unanimously refused SICO’s demand in its entirety and on January 23, 2013, counsel for the Board sent a letter to counsel for SICO describing the process by which our Board considered and refused SICO’s demand and stating the reasons for our Board’s determination.
On March 11, 2013, SICO filed a second amended complaint in the SICO Treasury Action alleging that its demand was wrongfully refused. On June 26, 2013, the Court of Federal Claims granted AIG’s and the United States’ motions to dismiss SICO’s derivative claims in the SICO Treasury Action due to our Board’s refusal of SICO’s demand and denied the United States’ motion to dismiss SICO’s direct, non-derivative claims.
On March 11, 2013, the Court of Federal Claims in the SICO Treasury Action granted SICO’s motion for class certification of two classes with respect to SICO’s non‑derivative claims: (1) persons and entities who held shares of AIG Common Stock on or before September 16, 2008 and who owned those shares on September 22, 2008 (the Credit Agreement Shareholder Class); and (2) persons and entities who owned shares of AIG Common Stock on June 30, 2009 and were eligible to vote those shares at AIG’s June 30, 2009 annual meeting of shareholders (the Reverse Stock Split Shareholder Class). SICO has provided notice of class certification to potential members of the classes, who, pursuant to a court order issued on April 25, 2013, had to return opt‑in consent forms by September 16, 2013 to participate in either class. 286,908 holders of AIG Common Stock during the two class periods have opted into the classes.
On June 15, 2015, the Court of Federal Claims issued its opinion and order in the SICO Treasury Action. The Court found that the United States exceeded its statutory authority by exacting approximately 80 percent of AIG’s equity in exchange for the FRBNY Credit Facility, but that AIG shareholders suffered no damages as a result. SICO argued during trial that the two classes are entitled to a total of approximately $40 billion in damages, plus interest. The Court also found that the United States was not liable to the Reverse Stock Split Class in connection with the reverse stock split vote at the June 30, 2009 annual meeting of shareholders.
On June 17, 2015, the Court of Federal Claims entered judgment stating that “the Credit Agreement Shareholder Class shall prevail on liability due to the Government's illegal exaction, but shall recover zero damages, and that the Reverse Stock Split Shareholder Class shall not prevail on liability or damages.” SICO filed a notice of appeal of the July 2, 2012 dismissal of SICO’s unconstitutional conditions claim, the June 26, 2013 dismissal of SICO’s derivative claims, the Court’s June 15, 2015 opinion and order, and the Court’s June 17, 2015 judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The United States filed a notice of cross appeal of the Court’s July 2, 2012 opinion and order denying in part its motion to dismiss, the Court’s June 26, 2013 opinion and order denying its motion to dismiss SICO’s direct claims, the Court’s June 15, 2015 opinion and order, and the Court’s June 17, 2015 judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
On August 25, 2015, SICO filed its appellate brief, in which it stated SICO does not appeal the dismissal of the derivative claims it asserted on behalf of AIG.
In the Court of Federal Claims, the United States has alleged, as an affirmative defense in its answer, that AIG is obligated to indemnify the FRBNY and its representatives, including the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and the United States (as the FRBNY’s principal), for any recovery in the SICO Treasury Action.
AIG believes that any indemnification obligation would arise only if: (a) SICO prevails on its appeal and ultimately receives an award of damages; (b) the United States then commences an action against AIG seeking indemnification; and (c) the United States is successful in such an action through any appellate process. If SICO prevails on its claims and the United States seeks indemnification from AIG, AIG intends to assert defenses thereto. A reversal of the Court of Federal Claim’s June 17, 2015 decision and judgment and a final determination that the United States is liable for damages, together with a final determination that AIG is obligated to indemnify the United States for any such damages, could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

False Claims Act Complaint
|
On February 25, 2010, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California by two individuals (Relators) seeking to assert claims on behalf of the United States against AIG and certain other defendants, including Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank, under the False Claims Act. Relators filed a first amended complaint on September 30, 2010, adding certain additional defendants, including Bank of America and Société Générale. The first amended complaint alleged that defendants engaged in fraudulent business practices in respect of their activities in the over-the-counter market for collateralized debt obligations, and submitted false claims to the United States in connection with the FRBNY Credit Facility and Maiden Lane II LLC and Maiden Lane III LLC entities (the Maiden Lane Interests) through, among other things, misrepresenting AIG’s ability and intent to repay amounts drawn on the FRBNY Credit Facility, and misrepresenting the value of the securities that the Maiden Lane Interests acquired from AIG and certain of its counterparties. The first amended complaint sought unspecified damages pursuant to the False Claims Act in the amount of three times the damages allegedly sustained by the United States as well as interest, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses. The complaint and the first amended complaint were initially filed and maintained under seal while the United States considered whether to intervene in the action. On or about April 28, 2011, after the United States declined to intervene, the District Court lifted the seal, and Relators served the first amended complaint on AIG on July 11, 2011. On April 19, 2013, the Court granted AIG’s motion to dismiss, dismissing the first amended complaint in its entirety, without prejudice, giving the Relators the opportunity to file a second amended complaint. On May 24, 2013, the Relators filed a second amended complaint, which attempted to plead the same claims as the prior complaints and did not specify an amount of alleged damages. AIG and its co-defendants filed motions to dismiss the second amended complaint on August 9, 2013. On March 29, 2014, the Court dismissed the second amended complaint with prejudice. On April 30, 2014, the Relators filed a Notice of Appeal to the Ninth Circuit. We are unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, arising from this litigation.
Litigation Matters Relating to AIG’s Insurance Operations
|
Caremark. AIG and certain of its subsidiaries have been named defendants in two putative class actions in state court in Alabama that arise out of the 1999 settlement of class and derivative litigation involving Caremark Rx, Inc. (Caremark). The plaintiffs in the second‑filed action intervened in the first‑filed action, and the second‑filed action was dismissed. An excess policy issued by a subsidiary of AIG with respect to the 1999 litigation was expressly stated to be without limit of liability. In the current actions, plaintiffs allege that the judge approving the 1999 settlement was misled as to the extent of available insurance coverage and would not have approved the settlement had he known of the existence and/or unlimited nature of the excess policy. They further allege that AIG, its subsidiaries, and Caremark are liable for fraud and suppression for misrepresenting and/or concealing the nature and extent of coverage.
The complaints filed by the plaintiffs and the intervenors request compensatory damages for the 1999 class in the amount of $3.2 billion, plus punitive damages. AIG and its subsidiaries deny the allegations of fraud and suppression, assert that information concerning the excess policy was publicly disclosed months prior to the approval of the settlement, that the claims are barred by the statute of limitations, and that the statute cannot be tolled in light of the public disclosure of the excess coverage. The plaintiffs and intervenors, in turn, have asserted that the disclosure was insufficient to inform them of the nature of the coverage and did not start the running of the statute of limitations.
On August 15, 2012, the trial court entered an order granting plaintiffs’ motion for class certification, and on September 12, 2014, the Alabama Supreme Court affirmed that order. AIG and the other defendants’ petition for rehearing of that decision was denied on February 27, 2015. The matter has been remanded to the trial court for general discovery and adjudication of the merits. On November 24, 2015, the trial court ruled that the defendants had a duty to disclose the amount of insurance available at the settlement approval hearings and that the defendants breached that duty. On February 22, 2016, the court rescheduled the trial date to May 16, 2016. Thereafter, the parties settled this matter in principle, subject to formal documentation and court approval. We have accrued our current estimate of loss with respect to this litigation.

Regulatory and Related Matters
In April 2007, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) formed a Settlement Review Working Group, directed by the State of Indiana, to review the Workers’ Compensation Residual Market Assessment portion of the settlement between AIG, the Office of the New York Attorney General, and the New York State Department of Insurance. In late 2007, the Settlement Review Working Group, under the direction of Indiana, Minnesota and Rhode Island, recommended that a multi-state targeted market conduct examination focusing on workers’ compensation insurance be commenced under the direction of the NAIC’s Market Analysis Working Group. AIG was informed of the multi-state targeted market conduct examination in January 2008. The lead states in the multi-state examination were Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. All other states (and the District of Columbia) agreed to participate in the multi-state examination. The examination focused on legacy issues related to certain AIG entities’ writing and reporting of workers compensation insurance between 1985 and 1996.
On December 17, 2010, AIG and the lead states reached an agreement to settle all regulatory liabilities arising out of the subjects of the multistate examination. This regulatory settlement agreement, which was agreed to by all 50 states and the District of Columbia, included, among other terms, (i) AIG’s payment of $100 million in regulatory fines and penalties; (ii) AIG’s payment of $46.5 million in outstanding premium taxes and assessments; (iii) AIG’s agreement to enter into a compliance plan describing agreed-upon specific steps and standards for evaluating AIG’s ongoing compliance with state regulations governing the setting of workers’ compensation insurance premium rates and the reporting of workers’ compensation premiums; and (iv) AIG’s agreement to pay up to $150 million in contingent fines in the event that AIG fails to comply substantially with the compliance plan requirements. In furtherance of the compliance plan, the agreement provided for a monitoring period from May 29, 2012 to May 29, 2014 leading up to a compliance plan examination. After the close of the monitoring period, as part of preparation for the actual conduct of the compliance plan examination, on or about October 1, 2014, AIG and the lead states agreed upon corrective action plans to address particular issues identified during the monitoring period. The compliance plan examination is ongoing. There can be no assurance that the result of the compliance plan examination will not result in a fine, have a material adverse effect on AIG’s ongoing operations or lead to civil litigation.
In connection with a multi‑state examination of certain accident and health products, including travel products, issued by National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, Pa. (National Union), AIG Property Casualty Inc. (formerly Chartis Inc.), on behalf of itself, National Union, and certain of AIG Property Casualty Inc.’s insurance and non‑insurance companies (collectively, the AIG PC parties) entered into a Regulatory Settlement Agreement with regulators from 50 U.S. jurisdictions effective November 29, 2012. Under the agreement, and without admitting any liability for the issues raised in the examination, the AIG PC parties (i) paid a civil penalty of $50 million, (ii) entered into a corrective action plan describing agreed‑upon specific steps and standards for evaluating the AIG PC parties’ ongoing compliance with laws and regulations governing the issues identified in the examination, and (iii) agreed to pay a contingent fine in the event that the AIG PC parties fail to satisfy certain terms of the corrective action plan. National Union and other AIG companies are also currently subject to civil litigation relating to the conduct of their accident and health business, and may be subject to additional litigation relating to the conduct of such business from time to time in the ordinary course. There can be no assurance that any regulatory action resulting from the issues identified will not have a material adverse effect on our ongoing operations of the business subject to the agreement, or on similar business written by other AIG carriers.

In the normal course of business, we enter into commitments to invest in limited partnerships, private equity funds and hedge funds and to purchase and develop real estate in the U.S. and abroad. These commitments totaled $2.7 billion at March 31, 2016.

Guarantees
|
Subsidiaries
|
We have issued unconditional guarantees with respect to the prompt payment, when due, of all present and future payment obligations and liabilities of AIGFP and of AIG Markets arising from transactions entered into by AIG Markets.
In connection with AIGFP’s business activities, AIGFP has issued, in a limited number of transactions, standby letters of credit or similar facilities to equity investors of structured leasing transactions in an amount equal to the termination value owing to the equity investor by the lessee in the event of a lessee default (the equity termination value). The total amount outstanding at March 31, 2016 was $208 million. In those transactions, AIGFP has agreed to pay such amount if the lessee fails to pay. The amount payable by AIGFP is, in certain cases, partially offset by amounts payable under other instruments typically equal to the present value of scheduled payments to be made by AIGFP. In the event that AIGFP is required to make a payment to the equity investor, the lessee is unconditionally obligated to reimburse AIGFP. To the extent that the equity investor is paid the equity termination value from the standby letter of credit and/or other sources, including payments by the lessee, AIGFP takes an assignment of the equity investor’s rights under the lease of the underlying property. Because the obligations of the lessee under the lease transactions are generally economically defeased, lessee bankruptcy is the most likely circumstance in which AIGFP would be required to pay without reimbursement.
Asset Dispositions
|
General
|
We are subject to financial guarantees and indemnity arrangements in connection with the completed sales of businesses pursuant to our asset disposition plan. The various arrangements may be triggered by, among other things, declines in asset values, the occurrence of specified business contingencies, the realization of contingent liabilities, developments in litigation or breaches of representations, warranties or covenants provided by us. These arrangements are typically subject to various time limitations, defined by the contract or by operation of law, such as statutes of limitation. In some cases, the maximum potential obligation is subject to contractual limitations, while in other cases such limitations are not specified or are not applicable.
We are unable to develop a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential payout under certain of these arrangements. Overall, we believe that it is unlikely we will have to make any material payments related to completed sales under these arrangements, and no material liabilities related to these arrangements have been recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Payment of future dividends to our shareholders and repurchases of AIG Common Stock depends in part on the regulatory framework that we are currently subject to and that will ultimately be applicable to us, including as a nonbank systemically important financial institution under the Dodd‑Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd‑Frank) and a global systemically important insurer. In addition, dividends are payable on AIG Common Stock only when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors in its discretion, from funds legally available for this purpose. In considering whether to pay a dividend or purchase shares of AIG Common Stock, our Board of Directors considers a number of factors, including, but not limited to: the capital resources available to support our insurance operations and business strategies, AIG’s funding capacity and capital resources in comparison to internal benchmarks, expectations for capital generation, rating agency expectations for capital, regulatory standards for capital and capital distributions, and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
On March 28, 2016, we paid a dividend of $0.32 per share on AIG Common Stock to shareholders of record on March 14, 2016.
See Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2015 Annual Report for a discussion of restrictions on payments of dividends to AIG Parent by its subsidiaries.
Repurchase of AIG Common Stock
|
Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of shares of AIG Common Stock through a series of actions. On February 11, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized an additional increase of $5.0 billion to its previous share repurchase authorization. As of March 31, 2016, approximately $4.6 billion remained under our share repurchase authorization. Shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market, private purchases, through forward, derivative, accelerated repurchase or automatic repurchase transactions or otherwise (including through the purchase of warrants). Certain of our share repurchases have been and may from time to time be effected through Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plans.

Item 1 / NOTE 10. EQUITY

We repurchased approximately 63 million shares of AIG Common Stock in the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $3.5 billion, and we repurchased 10 million warrants to purchase shares of AIG Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $173 million.
The timing of any future repurchases will depend on market conditions, our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and other factors.

(a) Shares in the diluted EPS calculation represent basic shares for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 due to the net loss in that period.
(b) Dilutive shares include our share‑based employee compensation plans and a weighted average portion of the warrants issued to AIG shareholders as part of AIG’s recapitalization in January 2011. The number of shares excluded from diluted shares outstanding was 0.6 and 0.6 million for both the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, because the effect of including those shares in the calculation would have been anti-dilutive.

12. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
|
We sponsor various defined benefit pension plans, post-retirement medical and life insurance plans for eligible employees and retirees in the U.S. and certain non-U.S. countries. Effective January 1, 2016, the U.S. defined benefit pension plans were frozen for current participants and closed to new hires. Accordingly, compensation-based benefits are no longer credited to the cash balance accounts of plan participants.
In addition, we changed the method used to measure interest cost for pension and postretirement benefits for our U.S. plans and largest non-U.S. plans in the fourth quarter of 2015. Previously, we measured interest cost utilizing a single weighted-average discount rate derived from the yield curve used to measure the benefit obligations. For 2016, interest cost is measured by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve to the plans’ corresponding discounted cash flows that comprise the obligation (the Spot Rate Approach). The new method provides a more precise measurement of interest cost by aligning the timing of the plans’ discounted cash flows to the corresponding spot rates on the yield curve. We accounted for this change as a change in accounting estimate, which is applied prospectively. The measurement of our pension and postretirement benefit obligations was not affected.

Item 1 / NOTE 13. INCOME TAXES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

|
Interim Tax Calculation Method
|
We use the estimated annual effective tax rate method in computing our interim tax provision. Certain items, including those deemed to be unusual, infrequent or that cannot be reliably estimated, are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. In these cases, the actual tax expense or benefit is reported in the same period as the related item. Certain tax effects are also not reflected in the estimated annual effective tax rate, primarily certain changes in the realizability of deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions.
Interim Tax Expense (Benefit)
|
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, the effective tax rate on loss from continuing operations was 27.1 percent. The effective tax rate on loss from continuing operations differs from the statutory tax rate of 35 percent primarily due to tax charges and related interest associated with increases in uncertain tax positions related to cross border financing transactions, partially offset by tax benefits associated with the impact of an agreement reached with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) related to certain tax issues under audit, reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income to income from continuing operations related to the disposal of available for sale securities and a decrease in the deferred tax asset valuation allowances associated with certain foreign jurisdictions.
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations was 34.4 percent. The effective tax rate on income from continuing operations differs from the statutory tax rate of 35 percent primarily due to tax benefits associated with tax exempt interest income, partially offset by an increase in certain deferred tax asset valuation allowances associated with foreign jurisdictions primarily attributable to changes in statutory tax rates and the net operating loss utilization statutory limitation in Japan.
Assessment of Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance
|
The evaluation of the recoverability of our deferred tax asset and the need for a valuation allowance requires us to weigh all positive and negative evidence to reach a conclusion that it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The weight given to the evidence is commensurate with the extent to which it can be objectively verified. The more negative evidence that exists, the more positive evidence is necessary and the more difficult it is to support a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not needed.
57
Item 1 / NOTE 13. INCOME TAXES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Our framework for assessing the recoverability of the deferred tax asset requires us to consider all available evidence, including:
· the nature, frequency, and amount of cumulative financial reporting income and losses in recent years;
· the sustainability of recent operating profitability of our subsidiaries;
· the predictability of future operating profitability of the character necessary to realize the net deferred tax asset;
· the carryforward period for the net operating loss, capital loss and foreign tax credit carryforwards, including the effect of reversing taxable temporary differences; and
· prudent and feasible actions and tax planning strategies that would be implemented, if necessary, to protect against the loss of the deferred tax asset.
In performing our assessment of the recoverability of the deferred tax asset under this framework, we consider tax laws governing the utilization of the net operating loss, capital loss and foreign tax credit carryforwards in each applicable jurisdiction. Under U.S. tax law, a company generally must use its net operating loss carryforwards before it can use its foreign tax credit carryforwards, even though the carryforward period for the foreign tax credit is shorter than for the net operating loss. Our U.S. federal consolidated income tax group includes both life companies and non-life companies. While the U.S. taxable income of our non-life companies can be offset by the net operating loss carryforwards, only a portion (no more than 35 percent) of the U.S. taxable income of our life companies can be offset by those net operating loss carryforwards. The remaining tax liability of our life companies can be offset by the foreign tax credit carryforwards. Accordingly, we utilize both the net operating loss and foreign tax credit carryforwards concurrently which enables us to realize our tax attributes prior to expiration. As of March 31, 2016, based on all available evidence, it is more likely than not that the U.S. net operating loss and foreign tax credit carryforwards will be utilized prior to expiration and, thus, no valuation allowance has been established.
Estimates of future taxable income, including income generated from prudent and feasible actions and tax planning strategies could change in the near term, perhaps materially, which may require us to consider any potential impact to our assessment of the recoverability of the deferred tax asset. Such potential impact could be material to our consolidated financial condition or results of operations for an individual reporting period.
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, recent changes in market conditions, including falling interest rates, impacted the unrealized tax gains and losses in the U.S. Life Insurance Companies’ available for sale securities portfolio, resulting in a decrease to the related deferred tax asset. The deferred tax asset relates to the unrealized losses for which the carryforward period has not yet begun, and as such, when assessing its recoverability, we consider our ability and intent to hold the underlying securities to recovery. As of March 31, 2016, based on all available evidence, we concluded that the valuation allowance should be reduced on a portion of the deferred tax asset related to unrealized tax losses that are more-likely-than-not to be realized.
As a result, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, we released $800 million of valuation allowance associated with the unrealized tax losses in the U.S. Life Insurance Companies, all of which was allocated to other comprehensive income.
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, we recognized a net decrease of $34 million in our deferred tax asset valuation allowance associated with certain foreign jurisdictions, primarily attributable to changes in projections related to Japan.

Tax Examinations and Litigation
|
On August 1, 2012, we filed a motion for partial summary judgment related to the disallowance of foreign tax credits associated with cross border financing transactions in the Southern District of New York. On March 29, 2013, the Southern District of New York denied our motion. On March 17, 2014, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (the Second Circuit) granted our petition for an immediate appeal of the partial summary judgment decision. On September 9, 2015, the Second Circuit affirmed the decision of the Southern District of New York. On October 13, 2015, we filed a petition for a writ of certiorari to the U.S Supreme Court. On March 7, 2016 the U.S. Supreme Court denied our petition for certiorari. As a result, the case will be remanded back to the Southern District of New York for a jury trial.
We will vigorously defend our position and continue to believe that we have adequate reserves for any liability that could result from these government actions. We continue to monitor legal and other developments in this area, including recent decisions affecting other taxpayers, and evaluate their effect, if any, on our position.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
|
At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, were $4.5 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively. The three-month period ended March 31, 2016 reflects an increase in amounts associated with cross border financing transactions, partially offset by benefits realized due to an agreement reached with the IRS related to certain tax issues under audit. At both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our unrecognized tax benefits related to tax positions that, if recognized, would not affect the effective tax rate because they relate to such factors as the timing, rather the permissibility, of the deduction were $0.1 billion. Accordingly, at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate were $4.4 billion and $4.2 billion, respectively.
Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in income tax expense. At both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had accrued liabilities of $1.2 billion for the payment of interest (net of the federal benefit) and penalties. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we accrued benefits of $51 million and $12 million, respectively, for the payment of interest and penalties. The reduction in interest from December 31, 2015 was primarily due to benefits associated with an agreement reached with the IRS related to certain tax issues under audit, partially offset by an increase associated with cross border financing transactions.
We regularly evaluate adjustments proposed by taxing authorities. At March 31, 2016, such proposed adjustments would not have resulted in a material change to our consolidated financial condition, although it is possible that the effect could be material to our consolidated results of operations for an individual reporting period. Although it is reasonably possible that a change in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next 12 months, based on the information currently available, we do not expect any change to be material to our consolidated financial condition.

ITEM 2 / MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GLOSSARY AND ACRONYMS OF SELECTED INSURANCE TERMS AND REFERENCES
Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A), we use certain terms and abbreviations, which are summarized in the Glossary and Acronyms.
American International Group, Inc. (AIG) has incorporated into this discussion a number of cross-references to additional information included throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (2015 Annual Report) to assist readers seeking additional information related to a particular subject.
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless otherwise mentioned or unless the context indicates otherwise, we use the terms “AIG,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” to refer to American International Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries. We use the term “AIG Parent” to refer solely to American International Group, Inc., and not to any of its consolidated subsidiaries.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other publicly available documents may include, and officers and representatives of American International Group, Inc. (AIG) may from time to time make, projections, goals, assumptions and statements that may constitute “forward‑looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These projections, goals, assumptions and statements are not historical facts but instead represent only our belief regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside our control. These projections, goals, assumptions and statements include statements preceded by, followed by or including words such as "will," “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “focused on achieving,” “view,” “target,” "goal" or “estimate.” These projections, goals, assumptions and statements may address, among other things, our:
• exposures to subprime mortgages, monoline insurers, the residential and commercial real estate markets, state and municipal bond issuers, sovereign bond issuers, the energy sector and currency exchange rates; • exposure to European governments and European financial institutions; • strategy for risk management; • sales of businesses; • restructuring of business operations; • generation of deployable capital; • strategies to increase return on equity and earnings per share; |
• strategies to grow net investment income, efficiently manage capital, grow book value per common share, and reduce expenses; • anticipated restructuring charges and annual cost savings; • anticipated business or asset divestitures or monetizations; • anticipated organizational and business changes; • strategies for customer retention, growth, product development, market position, financial results and reserves; and • subsidiaries' revenues and combined ratios. |
66
It is possible that our actual results and financial condition will differ, possibly materially, from the results and financial condition indicated in these projections, goals, assumptions and statements. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those in the specific projections, goals, assumptions and statements include:
• changes in market conditions; • negative impacts on customers, business partners and other stakeholders; • the occurrence of catastrophic events, both natural and man-made; • significant legal proceedings; • the timing and applicable requirements of any new regulatory framework to which we are subject as a nonbank systemically important financial institution (SIFI) and as a global systemically important insurer (G‑SII); • concentrations in our investment portfolios; • actions by credit rating agencies; • judgments concerning casualty insurance underwriting and insurance liabilities; • our ability to successfully manage run-off insurance portfolios; |
• our ability to successfully reduce costs and expenses and make business and organizational changes without negatively impacting client relationships or our competitive position; • our ability to successfully dispose of, or monetize, businesses or assets; • judgments concerning the recognition of deferred tax assets; • judgments concerning estimated restructuring charges and estimated cost savings; and • such other factors discussed in: • Part I, Item 2. MD&A and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q; and • Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors and Part II, Item 7. MD&A of our 2015 Annual Report. |
We are not under any obligation (and expressly disclaim any obligation) to update or alter any projections, goals, assumptions or other statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
67
The MD&A is organized as follows:

USE OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
Throughout this MD&A, we present our financial condition and results of operations in the way we believe will be most meaningful and representative of our business results. Some of the measurements we use are “non‑GAAP financial measures” under SEC rules and regulations. GAAP is the acronym for “accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.” The non‑GAAP financial measures we present may not be comparable to similarly‑named measures reported by other companies.
Book Value Per Common Share Excluding Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI) and Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI and Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) are used to show the amount of our net worth on a per-share basis. We believe these measures are useful to investors because they eliminate the effect of non-cash items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets represent U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, by Total common shares outstanding. Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI and DTA is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA, by Total common shares outstanding. The reconciliation to book value per common share, the most comparable GAAP measure, is presented in the Executive Overview section of this MD&A.
Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI and Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI and DTA are used to show the rate of return on shareholders’ equity. We believe these measures are useful to investors because they eliminate the effect of non-cash items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets represent U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI is derived by dividing actual or annualized after-tax operating income attributable to AIG by average AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding average AOCI. Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI and DTA is derived by dividing actual or annualized after-tax operating income attributable to AIG by average AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding average AOCI and DTA. The reconciliation to return on equity, the most comparable GAAP measure, is presented in the Executive Overview section of this MD&A.
We use the following operating performance measures because we believe they enhance the understanding of the underlying profitability of continuing operations and trends of our business segments. We believe they also allow for more meaningful comparisons with our insurance competitors. When we use these measures, reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measure are provided in the Results of Operations section of this MD&A on a consolidated basis.

After-tax operating income attributable to AIG is derived by excluding the following items from net income attributable to AIG:
• deferred income tax valuation allowance releases and charges; • changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits; • changes in benefit reserves and deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC), value of business acquired (VOBA), and sales inducement assets (SIA) related to net realized capital gains and losses; • other income and expense — net, related to Corporate and Other run-off insurance lines; • loss on extinguishment of debt; • net realized capital gains and losses; • non‑qualifying derivative hedging activities, excluding net realized capital gains and losses; |
• income or loss from discontinued operations; • income and loss from divested businesses, including: • gain on the sale of International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC); and • certain post-acquisition transaction expenses incurred by AerCap Holdings N.V. (AerCap) in connection with its acquisition of ILFC and the difference between expensing AerCap’s maintenance rights assets over the remaining lease term as compared to the remaining economic life of the related aircraft and related tax effects; • legacy tax adjustments primarily related to certain changes in uncertain tax positions and other tax adjustments; • non-operating litigation reserves and settlements; • reserve development related to non-operating run-off insurance business; and • restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify our organization. |
We use the following operating performance measures within our Commercial Insurance and Consumer Insurance reportable segments as well as Corporate and Other.
• Commercial Insurance: Property Casualty and Mortgage Guaranty; Consumer Insurance: Personal Insurance
• Pre‑tax operating income: includes both underwriting income and loss and net investment income, but excludes net realized capital gains and losses, other income and expense — net, and non-operating litigation reserves and settlements. Underwriting income and loss is derived by reducing net premiums earned by losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred, acquisition expenses and general operating expenses.
· Ratios: We, along with most property and casualty insurance companies, use the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the combined ratio as measures of underwriting performance. These ratios are relative measurements that describe, for every $100 of net premiums earned, the amount of losses and loss adjustment expenses, and the amount of other underwriting expenses that would be incurred. A combined ratio of less than 100 indicates underwriting income and a combined ratio of over 100 indicates an underwriting loss. The underwriting environment varies across countries and products, as does the degree of litigation activity, all of which affect such ratios. In addition, investment returns, local taxes, cost of capital, regulation, product type and competition can have an effect on pricing and consequently on profitability as reflected in underwriting income and associated ratios.
• Accident year loss and combined ratios, as adjusted: both the accident year loss and combined ratios, as adjusted, exclude catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums, prior year development, net of premium adjustments, and the impact of reserve discounting. Natural catastrophe losses are generally weather or seismic events having a net impact in excess of $10 million each. Catastrophes also include certain man-made events, such as terrorism and civil disorders that meet the $10 million threshold.
70
· Commercial Insurance: Institutional Markets; Consumer Insurance: Retirement and Life
• Pre‑tax operating income is derived by excluding the following items from pre‑tax income:
• changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits; |
• changes in benefit reserves and DAC, VOBA and SIA related to net realized capital gains and losses; and |
• net realized capital gains and losses; |
• non-operating litigation reserves and settlements. |
• Premiums and deposits: includes direct and assumed amounts received and earned on traditional life insurance policies, group benefit policies and life‑contingent payout annuities, as well as deposits received on universal life, investment‑type annuity contracts and mutual funds.
· Corporate and Other — Pre‑tax operating income and loss is derived by excluding the following items from pre‑tax income and loss:
• loss on extinguishment of debt; • net realized capital gains and losses; • changes in benefit reserves and DAC, VOBA and SIA related to net realized capital gains and losses; • income and loss from divested businesses, including Aircraft Leasing; |
• net gain or loss on sale of divested businesses, including: · gain on the sale of ILFC; and · certain post-acquisition transaction expenses incurred by AerCap in connection with its acquisition of ILFC and the difference between expensing AerCap’s maintenance rights assets over the remaining lease term as compared to the remaining economic life of the related aircraft and our share of AerCap’s income taxes; • non-operating litigation reserves and settlements; • reserve development related to non-operating run-off insurance business; and • restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify our organization. |
Results from discontinued operations are excluded from all of these measures.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW |
This overview of the MD&A highlights selected information and may not contain all of the information that is important to current or potential investors in AIG’s securities. You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q, together with the 2015 Annual Report, in its entirety for a complete description of events, trends, uncertainties, risks and critical accounting estimates affecting us.
We report our results of operations as follows:
· Commercial Insurance – Commercial Insurance offers insurance products and services to commercial and institutional customers worldwide. Commercial Insurance product lines include Casualty, Property, Specialty, Financial, Mortgage Insurance and Institutional Markets. Commercial Insurance products are distributed through a diversified multichannel distribution network that includes independent insurance brokers, banks, mortgage lenders, and specialized marketing and consulting firms.
· Consumer Insurance – Consumer Insurance offers a broad portfolio of retirement, life insurance and property casualty products and services to individuals and groups. Consumer Insurance products include term life, whole life, universal life, accident & health, variable and index annuities, fixed annuities, group retirement plans, mutual funds, financial planning, automobile and homeowners insurance, travel insurance, and warranty and service programs. Consumer Insurance offers its products and services through a diverse, multi-channel distribution network that includes broker-dealers, agencies and independent marketing organizations, banks, brokers, partnerships, travel agents, affiliated agents and financial advisors, and direct-to-consumer platforms.
· Corporate and Other – Corporate and Other consists of income from assets held by AIG Parent and other corporate subsidiaries, general operating expenses not attributable to specific reportable segments and interest expense. It also includes run-off lines of insurance business.
On January 26, 2016, we announced several actions designed to create a leaner, more profitable and focused insurer. These actions include a plan to reorganize our operating model into “modular”, more self-contained business units to enhance transparency and accountability. Additionally, we are introducing a new Legacy Portfolio that aims to maximize value and release capital of certain run-off non-strategic assets and highlight progress on improving the return on equity (ROE) of our Operating Portfolio. When the new operating structure is finalized, the presentation of our segment results may be modified and prior periods’ presentation may be revised to conform to the new structure.

Executive Summary
|
Commercial Insurance pre‑tax operating income decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a decrease in net investment income slightly offset by improved underwriting results.
Consumer Insurance pre-tax operating income decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower net investment income (reflecting lower income on alternative investments from negative performance in hedge funds) and higher DAC amortization in Retirement and Life; partially offset by improved underwriting results in Personal Insurance due to lower accident year losses, as adjusted, primarily in the U.S. personal property business, strategic actions to reduce expenses and refocus direct marketing activities, net favorable prior year loss reserve development in the first quarter of 2016 compared to net adverse prior year loss reserve development in the same period in the prior year, and lower catastrophe losses.
Corporate and Other reported a pre-tax operating loss in the first quarter of 2016 compared to pre-tax operating income in the prior-year quarter, primarily due to fair value losses on assets for which the fair value option was elected, including ABS CDOs and part of our holdings in People’s Insurance Company (Group) of China Limited (PICC Group). In addition, the first quarter of 2015 included our share of AerCap’s pre-tax income, which was accounted for under the equity method through the date of sale of most of our shares in the second quarter of 2015.
Our investment portfolio performance declined in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year due to lower income on alternative investments, primarily related to negative performance in hedge funds, and lower reinvestment yields.
Net realized capital gains decreased, with net losses in the first quarter of 2016 compared to net gains in the same period in the prior year, due to realized capital losses from sales of investments, an increase in other-than-temporary impairment charges, and foreign exchange transaction losses. See MD&A – Investments – Net Realized Capital Gains and Losses for further discussion.
In keeping with our broad and on-going efforts to transform AIG for long-term competitiveness, results for the first quarter of 2016 include approximately $0.2 billion of pre-tax restructuring and other costs, primarily composed of employee severance and contract termination charges.
We continue to execute initiatives focused on organizational simplification, operational efficiency, and business rationalization, which are expected to result in pre-tax restructuring and other costs of approximately $0.9 billion (of which approximately $0.7 billion has been recognized) as well as generate pre-tax annualized savings of approximately $0.7 billion to $0.8 billion when fully implemented.

Investment Highlights
|
Net investment income decreased to $3.0 billion in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $3.8 billion in the same period in the prior year due to lower income on alternative investments, primarily related to negative performance in hedge funds and lower reinvestment yields. While corporate debt securities represented the core of new investment allocations, we continued to make investments in structured securities, mortgage loans and other fixed income investments with favorable risk versus return characteristics to improve yields and increase net investment income.
Net unrealized gains in our available for sale portfolio increased to approximately $13.5 billion as of March 31, 2016, from approximately $8.8 billion as of December 31, 2015, primarily due to a decline in interest rates.
The overall credit rating of our fixed maturity securities portfolio remains largely unchanged from December 31, 2015.
Liquidity and Capital Resources Highlights
|
We maintained financial flexibility at AIG Parent in the first quarter of 2016 through $459 million in dividends in the form of cash and fixed maturity securities from our Non-Life Insurance Companies and $774 million in dividends and loan repayments in the form of cash and fixed maturity securities from our Life Insurance Companies. AIG Parent also received $491 million in

Our business is affected by industry and economic factors such as interest rates, currency exchange rates, credit and equity market conditions, catastrophic claims events, regulation, tax policy, competition, and general economic, market and political conditions. We continued to operate under difficult market conditions in 2016, characterized by factors such as historically low interest rates, instability in the global equity markets, volatile energy markets and slowing growth in China and Euro-Zone economies.
Interest rates remain low relative to historical levels, which has affected our industry by reducing investment returns and unfavorably affecting loss reserve discounting, primarily related to our workers’ compensation reserves. In addition, current market conditions may not necessarily permit insurance companies to increase pricing across all our product lines.
Currency volatility in 2016 was particularly acute compared to recent years, as two of the three major foreign currencies (Japanese yen, euro, and British pound) (the Major Currencies) that we transact in weakened considerably against the U.S. dollar. Such volatility affected line item components of income for those businesses with substantial international operations. In particular, growth trends in net premiums written reported in U.S. dollars can differ significantly from those measured in original currencies. The net effect on underwriting results, however, is significantly mitigated, as both revenues and expenses are similarly affected.
These currencies may continue to fluctuate, in either direction, and such fluctuations will affect net premiums written growth trends reported in U.S. dollars, as well as financial statement line item comparability.

AIG Priorities for 2016 |
AIG is focused on the following priorities for 2016: · Improving our ROE · Creating a leaner, more profitable and focused insurer by reorganizing our operating model into “modular”, more self-contained business units to enhance transparency and accountability, including through the introduction of a new Legacy Portfolio that aims to maximize value and release capital from the run-off of non-strategic assets · Reducing general operating expenses · Improving the Commercial Insurance Property Casualty accident year loss ratio · Returning excess capital to shareholders · Growing book value per common share |
Outlook for Our Operating Businesses
The outlook for each of our businesses and management initiatives to improve growth and performance in 2016 and over the longer term is summarized below. See our 2015 Annual Report for additional information concerning strategic initiatives and opportunities for each of our businesses.
COMMERCIAL INSURANCE Outlook and Strategic initiatives
|
Market Conditions and Industry Trends
|
Commercial Insurance expects the current low interest rate environment relative to historical levels, currency volatility, and ongoing uncertainty in global economic conditions will continue to limit growth and profitability in some markets and challenge growth of net investment income. Due to these conditions and overcapacity in the property casualty insurance industry, Commercial Insurance has continued to diversify its business focusing on growing profitable segments and geographies, exiting unprofitable lines and developing advanced data and analytics to improve profitability.
Property Casualty
|
Property Casualty has observed improving trends in certain key indicators that may partially offset the effect of current economic challenges. In the first quarter of 2016, the property casualty insurance industry experienced growth in certain classes of business in Property and Financial lines. Property Casualty also expects that expansion in certain growth economies will continue at a faster pace than in developed countries, but at levels lower than those previously expected due to revised economic assumptions. As a result of its ongoing strategy to optimize its portfolio and maintain underwriting discipline, Property Casualty expects that net premiums written for the U.S. Casualty line, and to a lesser extent, certain lines within Property, will continue to decline throughout the remainder of the year.
Overall, Property Casualty experienced a modest increase in rate pressure in the first quarter of 2016. Property Casualty expects that trend to continue in the near term, particularly in certain lines including in the U.S. Property Excess and Surplus market. Property Casualty continues to differentiate its underwriting capacity from its peers by leveraging its global footprint, diverse product offering, risk engineering expertise and significant underwriting experience.

In the U.S., Property Casualty’s exposure to terrorism risk is mitigated by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (TRIPRA) in addition to limited private reinsurance protections. For additional information on TRIPRA, see Item 1A. Risk Factors — Reserves and Exposures and Item 7. MD&A — Enterprise Risk Management — Insurance Operations Risks — Non-Life Insurance Companies Key Insurance Risks — Terrorism Risk in our 2015 Annual Report.
Mortgage Guaranty
|
During the first quarter of 2016, the U.S. market for purchase originations and refinance volume remained strong, favorably impacted by improving housing prices and low interest rates. In addition, the current economic environment has favorably impacted incurred losses through fewer delinquencies and higher cure rates. If the current economic environment persists, Mortgage Guaranty expects to benefit through increased purchase volume and, to a lesser extent, increased refinancing activity.
Mortgage Guaranty also expects that the delinquency rate and cure rate will continue to decline throughout 2016. Mortgage Guaranty believes the combination of the factors described above will result in favorable operating results for 2016. These favorable trends may be partially offset by an increase in competitive pricing pressure.
On December 31, 2015, the Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements (PMIERs) issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (collectively, the GSEs) became effective. Mortgage Guaranty met the PMIERs requirements as of March 31, 2016. Subject to interpretation and the prospective amendment of the requirements by the GSEs, Mortgage Guaranty’s minimum required assets under PMIERs were $3.0 billion as of March 31, 2016, and its estimated available assets were $3.3 billion, exceeding the required assets by $300 million. Available assets decreased from $3.6 billion at December 31, 2015, primarily as a result of dividend payments.
Institutional Markets
|
Institutional Markets is expected to continue growing its assets under management from the structured settlement business and the stable value wrap business, as well as from disciplined growth through the pursuit of select opportunities related to pension buyouts. Volatility in the earnings of our alternative investment portfolio will continue to affect Institutional Markets’ results.
Strategic Initiatives
|
Customer — Strive to be our clients’ most valued insurer by offering innovative products, superior service and access to an extensive global network. Sharpen Commercial Focus — Achieve ROE in excess of target across our businesses primarily through improvements in our loss ratio. Improve our business portfolio through risk selection by using enhanced data, analytics and the application of science to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns. Exit or remediate targeted sub-segments of underperforming portfolios that do not meet our risk acceptance or profitability objectives. Drive Efficiency — Reorganize our operating model into “modular”, more self-contained business units to enhance decision making, transparency and accountability, driving performance improvement and strategic flexibility over time; increase capital fungibility and diversification, streamline our legal entity structure, optimize reinsurance, improve tax efficiency and reduce expenses. Invest to Grow — Grow our higher-value businesses while investing in transformative opportunities, continuing initiatives to modernize our technology and infrastructure, advancing our engineering capabilities, innovating new products and client risk services and delivering a better client experience. |

Customer

Our vision is to be our clients’ most valued insurer. We expect that investments in underwriting, claims services, client risk services, science and data will continue to differentiate us from our peers and drive a superior client experience. For example, during the fourth quarter of 2015, we increased global commercial property limits to $2.5 billion per occurrence from $1.5 billion, in response to increased demand for capacity and services from clients managing complex global risks and increasing property values. This increase was the result of recent investments in engineering and analytical capabilities, which in turn allowed us to secure meaningful support from a panel of long-standing reinsurers.
Sharpen Commercial Focus
|
Exit or remediate targeted underperforming portfolios
Commercial Insurance is focused on serving our clients by providing the products and services where we have the most potential to deliver value. Experience and emerging data indicate that there are consistently under-performing sub-segments of our business. We will invest and grow where we see opportunity and we will exit or remediate underperforming portfolios. For example, in 2015 we transferred approximately $1.2 billion of loss reserves to our run-off insurance lines and in the first quarter of 2016 we transferred another $1.3 billion. This enables us to focus on growth opportunities while allowing for more proactive management of the transferred reserves by run-off specialists.
We will continue to further enhance our risk selection process and refine technical pricing through enhanced tools and analytics to achieve this goal.
Drive Efficiency
|
Narrow geographic footprint while continuing to maintain and improve multinational capabilities
Commercial Insurance, along with our other businesses, continues to evaluate the markets and geographies that provide the greatest opportunities, while maintaining the global footprint that our multinational clients greatly value. Additionally, we will continue to leverage our various off-shore centers, taking advantage of opportunities to centralize and standardize processes and platforms. We believe there is great opportunity to further streamline our global operating model.
Expand and optimize the use of reinsurance and other risk mitigating strategies
Commercial Insurance continues to execute capital management initiatives by enhancing broad‑based risk tolerance guidelines for its operating units, implementing underwriting strategies to increase ROE by line of business and reducing exposure to businesses with inadequate pricing and increased loss trends. Commercial Insurance remains focused on enhancing its global reinsurance strategy to improve overall capital efficiency, although this strategy may lead to periodic income statement volatility.
In accordance with our strategic plan, during the first quarter of 2016, we entered into a two-year reinsurance arrangement with the Swiss Re Group, under which a proportional share of our new and renewal U.S. Casualty portfolio is being ceded. This arrangement will reduce the impact of the Casualty loss ratio on our overall loss ratio.
Accelerate micro-segmentation of risks using internal and external data
Property Casualty continues to improve decision-making, risk acceptance and pricing based on its ongoing efforts to refine segmentation by customer, industry and geography. For example, after enhancing the segmentation of workers’ compensation,

Property Casualty has observed different experience and trends, which helps inform its risk appetite, pricing and loss mitigation decisions.
Invest to Grow
|
Grow most profitable lines
Property Casualty continues to focus on growth in our higher-value businesses while investing in transformative opportunities, continuing initiatives to modernize our technology and infrastructure, advancing our engineering capabilities, innovating new products and client risk services and delivering a better client experience. Property Casualty expects to grow in businesses such as Financial lines, including D&O, Cyber and Mergers & Acquisitions, Large Limit and Middle Market Property, Multinational and certain areas internationally.
Mortgage Guaranty expects to continue as a leading provider of mortgage insurance and seeks to differentiate itself from its competitors by utilizing its proprietary risk-based pricing strategy. This pricing strategy provides Mortgage Guaranty’s customers with mortgage insurance products that are priced commensurate with the underwriting risk, which we believe will result in an appropriately priced, high-quality book of business. As announced on January 26, 2016, we plan to conduct an initial public offering of up to 19.9 percent of Mortgage Guaranty, subject to regulatory and GSE approval, as a first step towards a full separation. On March 30, 2016, an initial Form S-1 registration statement relating to Mortgage Guaranty was filed with the SEC.
Institutional Markets is expected to continue growing the structured settlement business and continue contributing to growth in assets under management with stable value wraps and utilizing a disciplined approach to growth and diversification of our business by pursuing select opportunities in areas such as the pension buyout business.
consumer insurance outlook and STRATEGIC INITIATIVES

Market Conditions and Industry Trends
|
Retirement
|
Increasing life expectancy and reduced expectations for traditional retirement income from defined benefit programs and fixed income securities are leading Americans to seek additional financial security as they approach retirement. The strong demand for individual variable and fixed index annuities with guaranteed income features has attracted increased competition in this product space. In addition, higher tax rates and a desire for better investment returns have prompted less risk-averse investors to seek products without guaranteed living benefits, providing the opportunity to further diversify our product portfolio by offering investment-focused variable annuities.
The sustained low interest rate environment has a significant impact on the annuity industry. Low long-term interest rates put pressure on investment returns, which may negatively affect sales of interest rate sensitive products and reduce future profits on certain existing fixed rate products. In addition, more highly leveraged competitors have entered the market offering higher crediting rates. As long as the low interest rate environment continues, conditions will be challenging for the fixed annuity market. Rapidly rising interest rates could create the potential for increased surrenders. Customers are, however, currently buying fixed annuities with longer surrender periods in pursuit of higher returns, which may help mitigate the rate of increase in surrenders in a rapidly rising rate environment. Low interest rates have also driven strong sales growth of our fixed index annuity products, which provide additional interest crediting tied to favorable performance in certain equity market indices.
82
Consumer Insurance provides products and services to certain employee benefit plans that are subject to restrictions imposed by ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code, including rules that generally restrict the provision of investment advice by a fiduciary to ERISA plans and participants and Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) if the investment recommendation results in fees paid to the fiduciary individual advisor, his or her firm or their affiliates that vary according to the investment recommendation chosen. On April 8, 2016, the DOL published its final fiduciary duty rule (the Final Rule), substantially expanding the definition of fiduciary investment advice. As a result, the circumstances under which financial services providers and financial advisors could be deemed a fiduciary under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code when providing investment advice with respect to ERISA plans or IRAs are greatly expanded. For additional information on the Final Rule, see the Regulatory Environment section of this MD&A. We are currently reviewing the Final Rule to evaluate its full impact on our customers, distribution partners, financial advisors and us, while continuing to prepare for compliance with the Final Rule. The Final Rule could require us, and our competitors, to make material changes to certain of our business practices, product designs, and in our ability and the ability of our distribution partners and financial advisors to sell or service certain annuities and other investment products. The initial compliance date of the final rule is April 10, 2017, with full compliance required by January 1, 2018. Once we have fully evaluated the impact of the final rule, we intend to strategically invest in the most attractive post-DOL opportunities across the market.
Life
|
Populations are living longer and have increased needs for financial protection for beneficiaries, estate planning and wealth creation. The Life operating segment addresses these needs with a broad spectrum of products, ranging from the pure protection focus of term life to indexed universal life and investment-oriented products such as variable universal life. Market factors, primarily low interest rates and regulatory changes, have caused the universal life market to shift its focus from guaranteed universal life to indexed universal life products that offer cash accumulation and living benefit options.
Personal Insurance
|
The need for full life cycle products and coverage, increases in personal wealth accumulation, and awareness of insurance protection and risk management continue to support the growth of the Personal Insurance industry. Our Personal Insurance operations focus on group and corporate clients, together with individual customers within national markets. We expect the demand for multinational cross-boundary coverage and services to increase due to the internationalization of clients and customers. Our global presence provides Personal Insurance a distinct competitive advantage.
In Japan, the competition for auto insurance has intensified, in part driven by a decline in new car sales and the existence of fewer but larger insurers. In addition, the overall market size in homeowners insurance contracted after the duration restriction on long-term fire insurance became effective in October 2015. In the U.S., we compete in the high net worth market and will continue to take advantage of market consolidation and expand our innovative products and services to distribution partners and clients. Outside of Japan and the U.S., our Personal Insurance operating segment continues to invest selectively in markets where we believe higher potential for sustainable profitability exists.

Strategic Initiatives
|
Customer — Strive to be our clients’ most valued insurer. Through our unique franchise, which brings together a broad portfolio of retirement, life insurance and personal insurance products offered through multiple distribution networks, Consumer Insurance aims to provide customers with the products and services they desire, delivered through the channels they prefer. Information-driven Strategy — Utilize customer insight, analytics and the application of science to optimize customer acquisition, product profitability, product mix, channel performance and risk management capabilities. Sharpen Consumer Focus — Invest in areas where Consumer Insurance can grow profitably and sustainably. Target growth in select markets according to market size, growth potential, market maturity and customer demographics and narrow our footprint in less profitable markets with insufficient scale. Operational Effectiveness — Simplify processes and enhance operating environments to increase competitiveness, improve service and product capabilities and facilitate delivery of our target customer experience. Investment Strategy — Maintain a diversified, high quality portfolio of fixed maturity securities that largely matches the duration characteristics of the related insurance liabilities, and pursue selective yield-enhancement opportunities that meet liquidity, risk and return objectives. Profitability and Capital Management — Deliver solid earnings through disciplined pricing, sustainable underwriting improvements, expense reductions and diversification of risk, and increase capital efficiency within insurance entities to enhance return on equity. |
Customer
|
In striving to be our clients’ most valued insurer, we have implemented initiatives to better serve our target segments. Our focus on ease of doing business for consumers and producers includes enhancements to our platforms and services. We are working to expand relationships with key distribution partners to offer our products across multiple distribution channels.
Information-driven Strategy
|
We believe that strengthening our information-driven decision making and marketing capabilities through the use of enhanced analytics, stronger platforms and tools, a well-designed product portfolio and expanded relationships may allow us to bring more effective product solutions to our chosen markets.
We focus on rate adequacy through our global underwriting practices and tools and analytics, and seek to optimize the value of our business lines through product and portfolio management and refined technical pricing. We strive to deliver leading customer experience and efficiency through claims best practices, deployment of enhanced operating structures and standardized processes and systems, while managing claims-handling efficiency.
Sharpen Consumer Focus
|
Retirement Income Solutions intends to continue capitalizing on the opportunity to meet consumer demand for guaranteed income by maintaining competitive variable annuity product offerings, while managing risk from guarantee features through risk-mitigating product design and well-developed economic hedging capabilities. Retirement Income Solutions continues to invest in hedging and market risk management capabilities. Retirement Income Solutions is also focused on diversifying its product portfolio by growing sales of fixed index annuities with guarantee features, which provide additional income solutions for consumers approaching retirement, and investment-focused variable annuities, which do not offer guaranteed living benefits but include various investment options, including alternative asset classes, to investors seeking higher returns.
84
Fixed Annuities sales will continue to be challenged by the low interest rate environment. Sales of fixed annuities could improve if interest rates rise and the yield curve steepens, as these market conditions make fixed annuity products more attractive compared to alternatives such as bank deposits. During periods of equity market volatility, our fixed annuity products provide diversity in our annuity product suite by offering stable returns for retirement savings. The growing market for immediate and deferred income products, driven by customers seeking guaranteed income products, provides an opportunity for Fixed Annuities to increase the diversification of its product portfolio.
Life will continue to invest to position itself for growth, serve its customers more effectively, and maintain pricing discipline in its overall strategy. Life’s organization has been aligned to focus on the demographic, governmental and socioeconomic trends unique to each area in which we operate. As part of this initiative, our Group Benefits business recently merged with our U.S. Life, Health and Disability business to focus on strong existing relationships with multi-line and specialty producers. In January 2016, we announced a plan to improve capital efficiency by using reinsurance to reduce certain statutory reserves that are above economic requirements in our domestic Life business.
Personal Insurance aims to provide clients with the products and services they desire, delivered through the channels they prefer. We continue to focus and invest in the most profitable markets and segments, while narrowing our footprint where appropriate. We are also leveraging our multinational capabilities to meet the increasing demand for cross-border coverage and services. Personal Insurance will continue to utilize its strong risk management and market expertise to foster growth by providing innovative and competitive solutions to its customers and distributors.
Operational Effectiveness
|
We are continuing to invest in initiatives that we believe will make our operating platforms simpler and more agile, enabling us to provide superior service and accommodate future growth. In Japan, we continue to invest in technology to improve operating efficiency and ease of doing business for our distribution partners and customers. In the U.S. Life business, we are focused on leveraging our most efficient systems and increasing automation of our underwriting process. We believe that simplifying our operating models will enhance productivity and support further profitable growth.
Investment Strategy
|
Our investment objective is to maintain a diversified, high quality portfolio of fixed maturity securities having weighted average durations that are matched to the duration and cash flow profile of our liabilities, to the extent practicable. Our investment strategy is to maximize net investment income and portfolio value, subject to liquidity requirements, capital constraints, diversification requirements, asset-liability matching and available investment opportunities. While a portfolio of alternative investments remains a fundamental component of the investment strategy of the Life Insurance Companies, we intend to reduce the overall size of the hedge fund portfolio, in light of changing market conditions and perceived market opportunities, and to continue reducing the size of the private equity portfolio. See Investments for additional discussion of investment strategies. If these reductions were to include the sale of alternative investments that support certain payout annuities, we could incur additional loss recognition expense on such products, due to updating assumptions to reflect reinvestment at lower future yields. See Critical Accounting Estimates — Insurance Liabilities — Future Policy Benefits for Life and Accident and Health Insurance Contracts (Life Insurance Companies) for discussion of assumptions related to loss recognition testing in our 2015 Annual Report.
Profitability and Capital Management
|
We are focused on enhancing profitability and capital efficiency within our insurance entities through disciplined pricing, in-force profitability management, effective management of risk and expense reductions. For product lines where we have significant equity market risk and exposure to changes in interest rates, we use risk management tools, such as the risk mitigation product features and hedging program in our Retirement Income Solutions and Group Retirement annuity businesses. Additionally, our scale and the breadth of our product offerings provide diversification of risk. Within our Non-Life Insurance Companies, we continue to increase capital efficiency.
85
In conjunction with our strategic active divestiture program, we announced on January 26, 2016 that we have agreed to sell AIG Advisor Group, our network of independent broker-dealers, to investment funds affiliated with Lightyear Capital LLC and PSP Investments. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2016, subject to regulatory approvals.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, the effective tax rate on loss from continuing operations was 27.1 percent. The effective tax rate on loss from continuing operations differs from the statutory tax rate of 35 percent primarily due to tax charges and related interest associated with increases in uncertain tax positions related to cross border financing transactions, partially offset by tax benefits associated with the impact of an agreement reached with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) related to certain tax issues under audit, reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income to income from continuing operations related to the disposal of available for sale securities and a decrease in the deferred tax asset valuation allowances associated with certain foreign jurisdictions.
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations was 34.4 percent. The effective tax rate on income from continuing operations differs from the statutory tax rate of 35 percent primarily
86
due to tax benefits associated with tax exempt interest income, partially offset by an increase in certain deferred tax asset valuation allowances associated with foreign jurisdictions primarily attributable to changes in statutory tax rates and the net operating loss utilization statutory limitation in Japan.

* For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, because we reported a net loss, all common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted shares and diluted per share amounts. However, because we reported after-tax operating income, the calculation of after-tax operating income per diluted share includes 29,585,064 dilutive shares.
After-tax operating income attributable to AIG decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a decrease in income from insurance operations, reflecting decreased net investment income, and lower income on assets held by AIG Parent.
For the first quarter of 2016, the effective tax rate on pre-tax operating income was 19.2 percent. The significant factors that contributed to the difference from the statutory rate of 35 percent included tax benefits resulting from tax-exempt interest income and other permanent tax items, certain tax benefits associated with an agreement reached with the IRS related to certain tax issues under audit and the impact of other discrete tax benefits.
For the first quarter of 2015, the effective tax rate on pre-tax operating income was 32.6 percent. The significant factors that contributed to the difference from the statutory rate of 35 percent included tax benefits resulting from tax-exempt interest income, other permanent tax items, and the impact of discrete tax benefits.

We report the results of our operations through two reportable segments: Commercial Insurance and Consumer Insurance. The Corporate and Other category consists of businesses and items not allocated to our reportable segments.

FIRST QUARTER PRE-TAX INCOME COMPARISON FOR 2016 AND 2015
Pre-tax results decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to:
• a decrease in Commercial Insurance pre-tax operating income, which reflected lower net investment income due to lower income on alternative investments in the first quarter of 2016 compared to gains in the same period in the prior year, primarily related to hedge funds;
88
• a decrease in Consumer Insurance pre-tax operating income, primarily due to lower net investment income (reflecting lower income on alternative investments from negative performance in hedge funds) and higher DAC amortization in Retirement and Life, partially offset by improved underwriting results in Personal Insurance due to lower accident year losses, as adjusted, primarily in the U.S. personal property business, strategic actions to reduce expenses and refocus direct marketing activities, net favorable prior year loss reserve development compared to net adverse prior year loss development in the same period in the prior year, and lower catastrophe losses;
• lower net realized capital gains due to realized capital losses from sales of investments, higher other-than-temporary impairment charges, and foreign exchange transaction losses in the first quarter of 2016 compared to foreign exchange transaction gains in the same period in the prior year; and
• restructuring and other costs incurred in the first quarter of 2016 but not in the first quarter of 2015.
Net Investment Income
|
Net investment income is attributed to the operating segments of Commercial Insurance and Consumer Insurance based on internal models consistent with the nature of the underlying businesses.
For Commercial Insurance — Property Casualty and Consumer Insurance — Personal Insurance, we estimate investable funds based primarily on loss reserves and unearned premiums. The net investment income allocation is calculated based on these estimated investable funds consistent with the approximate duration of the liabilities and the capital allocation for each operating segment.
For Commercial Insurance — Institutional Markets, Consumer Insurance — Retirement and Consumer Insurance — Life, net investment income is attributed based on invested assets from segregated product line portfolios. Invested assets in excess of liabilities are allocated to product lines based on internal capital estimates.
Foreign Currency Impact
|
Property Casualty, International Life and Personal Insurance businesses are transacted in most major foreign currencies. The following table presents the average of the quarterly weighted average exchange rates of the currencies that have the most significant impact on our businesses:

NET PREMIUMS WRITTEN (in millions)

|
Pre-Tax oPERATING INCOME (in millions)
|
Pre‑tax operating income decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year due to lower net investment income. Underwriting results were relatively unchanged compared to the same period in the prior year reflecting lower expenses, partially offset by a decline in net premiums earned as a result of the ongoing execution of our strategic initiatives. Losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred reflected:
• higher catastrophe losses,
• a net loss reserve discount benefit in the first quarter of 2016, compared to a net loss reserve discount charge in the same period in the prior year,
• decreases in current accident year losses primarily from lower production in U.S. Casualty and Specialty, as well as lower severe losses, and
• net favorable prior year loss reserve development in the first quarter of 2016, compared to net adverse prior year loss reserve development in the same period of the prior year.
91
The current accident year losses for the first quarter of 2016 included six severe losses totaling $109 million compared to eight severe losses totaling $134 million in the same period in the prior year. Catastrophe losses were $222 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to $71 million in the same period in the prior year. The net loss reserve discount benefit was $26 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to a net loss reserve discount charge of $93 million in the same period in the prior year, primarily reflecting an update in reserve discount curve consisting of Treasury rates and credit spreads. See Insurance Reserves – Non-Life Insurance Companies – Discounting of Reserves for further discussion. Net favorable prior year loss reserve development, including return premiums of $6 million, was $10 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to net adverse prior year loss reserve development of $28 million, including return premiums of $11 million, in the same period of the prior year. See Insurance Reserves – Non-Life Insurance Companies –Net Loss Development for further discussion.
Acquisition expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Major Currencies, except the Japanese yen, as discussed above, and lower amortization of previously deferred costs, partially offset by an increase in certain classes of business in Specialty.
General operating expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower employee-related expenses resulting from actions to streamline our management structure and general cost containment measures commenced in 2015 and continuing through the first quarter of 2016, as well as the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Major Currencies, except the Japanese yen, as discussed above.
Net investment income decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower income on alternative investments as well as fair market value declines on assets accounted for under the fair value option. In the same period in the prior year, Property Casualty recorded net investment income on alternative investments in hedge funds.
See MD&A — Investments for additional information on the Non-Life Insurance Companies invested assets, investment strategy, and asset-liability management process.

Property Casualty NET PREMIUMS WRITTEN by Line of Business (in millions) |
|
Property Casualty net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the effect of the reinsurance arrangement with the Swiss Re Group, the continued execution of our strategy to enhance risk selection and optimize our product portfolio in the U.S. Casualty business, as well as strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Major Currencies, except the Japanese yen. Additionally, net premiums written in the first quarter of 2015 benefited from the renewal of a multi-year policy in U.S. Financial lines. The following paragraphs discuss the changes within our lines of business exclusive of the effect of foreign exchange.
Casualty net premiums written decreased, particularly in the U.S., in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year reflecting continued execution of our strategy to enhance risk selection and to optimize our product portfolio, which includes non-renewal of certain underperforming classes of business, revising rates, terms and conditions in certain underperforming portfolios, and the effect of the two-year reinsurance arrangement with the Swiss Re Group. An increase in new business in targeted growth products in the first quarter of 2016, particularly in EMEA, was more than offset by declines in that business in the U.S.
Property net premiums written increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in targeted growth products, particularly in the U.S., and changes to our catastrophe reinsurance programs to retain more favorable risks, partially offset by a decline in Asia, particularly in Japan.
Specialty net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the execution of our strategy to restructure the U.S environmental business, and a decline in EMEA Aerospace, partially offset by an increase in certain targeted growth products in Asia.
Financial lines net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the renewal of a multi-year E&O policy in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2015. Excluding the effect of the renewal of the multi-year policy in the prior year quarter, net premiums written increased reflecting higher new business in certain targeted growth products, particularly in EMEA.

The following paragraphs discuss the changes in net premiums written on a constant dollar basis, which exclude the effect of foreign exchange.
The Americas net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to continued execution of our strategy to optimize our product portfolio, as well as the effect of the reinsurance arrangement with the Swiss Re Group. Additionally, net premiums written in the first quarter of 2015 benefited from the renewal of a multi-year E&O policy in U.S. Financial lines. These declines were partially offset by an increase in Property reflecting higher new business in targeted growth products and changes in catastrophe reinsurance programs to retain more favorable risks.
Asia Pacific net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower new and renewal business in Casualty and a decline in Property in Japan reflecting rate pressure, partially offset by an increase in certain targeted growth products in Specialty.
EMEA net premiums written increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the increases in targeted growth products, particularly in Financial lines and Casualty, partially offset by a decline in certain classes of business, particularly in Specialty.

(b) Severe losses are defined as non-catastrophe individual first party losses and surety losses greater than $10 million, net of related reinsurance and salvage and subrogation.
The combined ratio decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in the expense ratio.
The accident year combined ratio, as adjusted, decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower expense ratio, partially offset by an increase in the accident year loss ratio, as adjusted.
The accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, slightly increased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting a higher current accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, in certain lines of business in Casualty and Specialty, particularly in the U.S., and an increase in attritional losses in Property. These increases were largely offset by an improvement in Financial lines in all regions, and lower severe losses in Property. Severe losses represented approximately 2.3 points and 2.7 points of the accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, in the first quarters of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The acquisition ratio slightly increased by 0.1 point in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher expenses in certain classes of business in Specialty.
96
The general operating expense ratio decreased by 0.4 points in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower employee-related costs resulting from ongoing actions to streamline our management structure and general cost containment measures commenced in 2015 and continuing through the first quarter of 2016.

Pre-tax operating income increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decline in incurred losses from lower delinquency rates and higher cure rates. The decline in net premiums written primarily reflected reductions in run-off business.
First-Lien Results
First-lien pre-tax operating income increased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year reflecting an increase in underwriting income. First-lien net premiums earned slightly decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily from an increase in ceded premiums. First-lien losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred in the first quarter of 2016 decreased by $12 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The combined ratio decreased by 8.1 points to 45.3 points in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting an improvement in overall underwriting results.
Acquisition expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of a reduction in sales support activities related to the decrease in new insurance written.
98
General operating expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a reduction in employee-related expenses compared to the same period in the prior year.
Other Business Results
Other business results include second-lien insurance, student loan insurance and non-domestic mortgage insurance operations.
The Other business’ pre-tax operating income for the first quarter of 2016 was approximately $13 million compared to $14 million in the same period in the prior year. The slight decrease in pre-tax operating income was primarily due to a decrease in net premiums earned, partially offset by decline in losses and loss adjustment expenses and underwriting expenses.
New Insurance Written on Domestic First-Lien Mortgage Loans
|
In the first quarter of 2016, Mortgage Guaranty’s domestic first-lien new insurance written was $8.8 billion compared to $10.5 billion for the same period in the prior year due to lower mortgage interest rates in late 2014 and early 2015 resulting in an increase in refinancing activity in early 2015.
Delinquency Inventory
|
The delinquency inventory for domestic first-lien business declined during the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of cures and paid claims exceeding the number of newly reported delinquencies. Mortgage Guaranty’s first-lien primary delinquency ratio at March 31, 2016 was 3.1 percent compared to 3.9 percent at March 31, 2015. Over the last several years, Mortgage Guaranty has experienced a decline in newly reported defaults and an increase in cure rates.

INSTITUTIONAL MARKETS pre-tax OPERATING INCOME (in millions) |
|
100
Pre-tax operating income decreased in the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to lower income on alternative investments in hedge funds and private equity funds. The increases in premiums and benefits and expenses were primarily due to higher premiums received and future policy benefit reserves established from the sale of terminal funding annuities and structured settlements.
Net investment income in the first quarter of 2016 decreased compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the lower income on alternative investments from negative performance in hedge funds in the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by higher base net investment income.
Base net investment income for the first quarter of 2016 increased compared to the same period in the prior year, due to commercial mortgage loan prepayment income in the first quarter of 2016 and growth in average base invested assets. See MD&A – Investments – Life Insurance Companies for additional information on the investment strategy, asset-liability management process and invested assets of our Life Insurance Companies, which include the invested assets of the Institutional Markets business.
General operating expenses in the first quarter of 2016 were comparable to the same period in the prior year.

RETIREMENT pre-tax OPERATING INCOME (in millions) |
|
Pre-tax operating income in the first quarter of 2016 decreased compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower net investment income and higher DAC amortization. The increase in DAC amortization in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year reflected the impact of lower equity market returns in Group Retirement and Retirement Income Solutions, and a higher level of amortization in Fixed Annuities due to the update of actuarial assumptions in the third quarter of 2015.
Net investment income for the first quarter of 2016 decreased compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower income on alternative investments from negative performance in hedge funds.
Base net investment income for the first quarter of 2016 increased compared to the same period in the prior year, as a result of commercial mortgage loan prepayment income and additional accretion on certain structured securities in the first quarter of 2016, which more than offset overall continued lower base yields on investment purchases. Excluding the effect of additional
103
accretion on certain structured securities, Retirement fixed maturity portfolio yields in the first quarter of 2016 declined compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of investment purchases and investment of portfolio cash flows, which continued to be at rates below the weighted average yield of the existing portfolio in the sustained low interest rate environment. See Investments – Life Insurance Companies for additional information on the investment strategy, asset-liability management process and invested assets of our Life Insurance Companies, which include the invested assets of the Retirement business.
In Group Retirement, base spreads increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, due to the increased base net investment income in the first quarter of 2016, combined with lower average interest crediting rates, which are reset annually on January 1 for a large portion of Group Retirement’s fixed option account values. In Fixed Annuities, average crediting rates and base spreads in the first quarter of 2016 were comparable to the same period in the prior year. See Spread Management below for additional discussion.
General operating expenses increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, due in part to technology investments.
Spread Management
The contractual provisions for renewal of crediting rates and guaranteed minimum crediting rates included in products may reduce spreads in a sustained low interest rate environment and thus reduce future profitability. Although this interest rate risk is partially mitigated through the Life Insurance Companies’ asset‑liability management process, product design elements and crediting rate strategies, a sustained low interest rate environment may negatively affect future profitability.
Disciplined pricing on new business and active crediting rate management are used in the Retirement operating segment to partially offset the impact of a continued decline in base yields resulting from investment of available cash flows in the low interest rate environment.
Disciplined pricing on new business is used to pursue new sales of annuity products at targeted net investment spreads in the current rate environment. Retirement has an active product management process to ensure that new business offerings appropriately reflect the current interest rate environment. To the extent that Retirement cannot achieve targeted net investment spreads on new business, products are re-priced or no longer sold. Additionally, where appropriate, existing products that had higher minimum rate guarantees have been re-filed with lower crediting rates as permitted under state insurance laws for new sales. As a result, new sales of fixed annuity products generally have minimum interest rate guarantees of one percent.
Renewal crediting rate management is done under contractual provisions in annuity products that were designed to allow crediting rates to be reset at pre-established intervals in accordance with state and federal laws and subject to minimum crediting rate guarantees. Retirement will continue to adjust crediting rates on in-force business to mitigate the pressure on spreads from declining base yields. In addition to deferred annuity products, certain traditional long-duration products for which Retirement does not have the ability to adjust interest rates, such as payout annuities, are exposed to reduced earnings and potential loss recognition reserve increases in a sustained low interest rate environment.
As of March 31, 2016, Retirement’s fixed annuity reserves, which include fixed options offered within variable annuities sold in the Group Retirement and Retirement Income Solutions product lines as well as reserves of the Fixed Annuities product line, had minimum guaranteed interest rates ranging from 1.0 percent to 5.5 percent, with the higher rates representing guarantees on older in-force products. As indicated in the table below, approximately 72 percent of annuity account values were at their minimum crediting rates as of March 31, 2016, compared to 73 percent at December 31, 2015. As a result of disciplined pricing on new business and the run-off of older business with higher minimum crediting rates, fixed annuity account values having contractual minimum guaranteed rates above 1 percent decreased from 74 percent of total fixed annuity reserves at December 31, 2015 to 72 percent at March 31, 2016.

RETIREMENT PREMIUMS AND DEPOSITS by Product Line (in millions) |
|
Premiums and deposits for Retirement increased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher sales in Fixed Annuities, Retail Mutual Funds and Group Retirement.
Net flows for annuity products included in Fixed Annuities, Retirement Income Solutions and Group Retirement represent premiums and deposits less death, surrender and other withdrawal benefits. Net flows from mutual funds, which are included in both Retail Mutual Funds and Group Retirement, represent deposits less withdrawals.
Total net flows for Retirement in the first quarter of 2016 increased compared to the same period in the prior year. The growth in Fixed Annuities sales and lower Group Retirement surrenders were the primary drivers of the improvement in net flows. All lines of business delivered positive net flows during the first quarter of 2016.
106
Premiums and Deposits and Net Flows by Product Line
A discussion of the significant variances in premiums and deposits and net flows for each product line follows:
Fixed Annuities deposits increased significantly in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, resulting in positive net flows for the quarter, due to new product offerings and an increase in fixed deferred annuities bank channel sales.
Retirement Income Solutions premiums and deposits and net flows decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to lower sales of variable annuities partially offset by growth in index annuities. The improvement in surrender rates (see Surrender Rates below) for the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to the significant growth in account value driven by the high volume of sales over the past twelve months, which has increased the proportion of business that is within the surrender charge period.
Retail Mutual Fund net flows increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to improvement in the level of deposits. The increase in net flows in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily driven by activity within the Focused Dividend Strategy Fund.
Group Retirement net flows in the first quarter of 2016 were positive and improved significantly compared to the same period in the prior year, due to higher premiums and deposits and lower surrender activity compared to the same period in the prior year, which included a large group surrender of approximately $300 million. The large group market has been impacted by the consolidation of healthcare providers and other employers in our target markets.

Life pre-tax OPERATING INCOME (in millions) |
|
Pre-tax operating income decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower net investment income and higher DAC amortization, due in part to updated assumptions for a block of traditional participating term business. Pre-tax operating income in the first quarter of 2016 benefited from a $25 million reduction in the reserve for IBNR death claims related to enhanced claims practices.
Net investment income decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower income on alternative investments from negative performance in hedge funds. See Investments – Life Insurance Companies for additional discussion of the investment strategy, asset-liability management process and invested assets of our Life Insurance Companies, which include the invested assets of the Life business.
General operating expenses increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in international expenses related to Laya Healthcare, which was acquired on March 31, 2015, and higher expenses in Japan.
108
Spread Management
|
Disciplined pricing on new business is used to pursue new sales of life products at targeted net investment spreads in the current interest rate environment. Life has an active product management process to ensure that new business offerings appropriately reflect the current interest rate environment. To the extent that Life cannot achieve targeted net investment spreads on new business, products are re-priced or no longer sold. Additionally, where appropriate, existing products with higher minimum rate guarantees have been re-filed with lower crediting rates, as permitted under state insurance laws for new sales. Universal life insurance interest rate guarantees are generally two to three percent on new non-indexed products and zero to two percent on new indexed products, and are designed to meet targeted net investment spreads.
In-force Management. Crediting rates for in-force policies are adjusted in accordance with contractual provisions that were designed to allow crediting rates to be reset subject to minimum crediting rate guarantees.

Pre-Tax oPERATING INCOME (LOSS) (in millions) |
|
|
|
Pre‑tax operating income improved in the first quarter of 2016 from a loss in the same period in the prior year due to improved underwriting results, partially offset by a decrease in net investment income. The underwriting results reflected lower accident year losses, as adjusted, primarily in U.S. personal property, strategic actions to reduce expenses and refocus direct marketing activities, net favorable prior year loss reserve development of $48 million, compared to net adverse prior year loss reserve development of $4 million in the same period in the prior year, and lower catastrophe losses. Catastrophe losses were $29 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to $61 million in the same period in the prior year.
Acquisition expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year due to the effect of foreign exchange and a decrease in non-deferred direct marketing expenses. The non-deferred direct marketing expenses, excluding commissions, for the first quarter of 2016, were approximately $48 million, and, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, decreased by approximately $19 million from the same period in the prior year.
110
General operating expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower employee-related expenses arising from organization realignment activities together with lower strategic investment expenditures and the effect of foreign exchange.
Net investment income decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting lower income on alternative investments from negative performance in hedge funds.

|
Personal Insurance net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year due to the effect of foreign exchange. Excluding the effect of foreign exchange, net premiums written increased approximately one percent in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by growth in personal property, partially offset by a decrease in warranty service programs. The following paragraphs discuss the changes in net premiums written on a constant dollar basis, which excludes the effect of foreign exchange.
111
Accident and Health net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to continued underwriting discipline across our businesses together with lower sales as a result of refocusing our direct marketing activities.
Personal Lines net premiums written increased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to increased production in personal property business in the U.S. and Asia Pacific outside of Japan and in the automobile business in the Americas. These increases were partially offset by decreased production in personal property in Japan due to a duration restriction on long-term fire insurance put in place in the fourth quarter of 2015 and warranty service programs in the U.S., due to underwriting actions taken in the prior years. The increase in the U.S. personal property business in the first quarter of 2016 was attributable to new business sales and improved retention in the AIG Private Client Group and reflected changes to optimize our reinsurance structure to retain more favorable risks, while continuing to manage aggregate exposure.

The following paragraphs discuss the changes in net premiums written on a constant dollar basis, which exclude the effect of foreign exchange.
Americas net premiums written increased in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in new business and improved retention in the AIG Private Client Group and the reinsurance optimization discussed above, partially offset by a decrease in warranty service programs and Accident and Health business.
112
Asia Pacific net premiums written decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to decreased production in personal property reflecting the long-term fire insurance duration restriction in Japan discussed above.
EMEA net premiums written remained unchanged in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a slight increase in Accident and Health, which was almost entirely offset by Personal lines.

(b) Severe losses are defined as non-catastrophe individual first party losses and surety losses greater than $10 million, net of related reinsurance and salvage and subrogation.
The combined ratio decreased by 9.3 points in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting an improvement in the loss ratio and expense ratio. The accident year combined ratio, as adjusted, improved by 6.2 points in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year.
The improvement in the accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, of 3.2 points in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to improved performance in U.S. personal property.
The acquisition ratio decreased by 1.2 points in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, which reflected lower Accident and Health direct marketing expenses as we refocus our activities.
The general operating expense ratio decreased by 1.8 points in the first quarter of 2016, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower employee-related expenses arising from organization realignment activities together with lower strategic investment expenditures.

(a) Represents our share of AerCap’s pre-tax operating income, which excludes certain post-acquisition transaction expenses incurred by AerCap in connection with its acquisition of ILFC and the difference between expensing AerCap’s maintenance rights assets over the remaining lease term as compared to the remaining economic life of the related aircraft.
(b) During the first quarter of 2015, Non-Life Insurance Companies sold a portion of their investment in PICC P&C to AIG Parent.
(c) Consists of the results of investments held by AIG Parent to support various corporate needs as well as the remaining positions of AIGFP, life settlements, real estate, equipment leasing and lending and other secured lending investments held by AIG Parent and certain subsidiaries.
Corporate and Other reported a pre-tax operating loss in the first quarter of 2016, compared to pre-tax operating income in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decline in Income from other assets, net. Income from other assets, net decreased primarily due to fair value losses on ABS CDOs, lower credit valuation adjustments on assets for which the fair value option was elected and gains recognized in the first quarter of 2015 upon the unwinding of certain positions. The pre-tax operating results also reflected fair value losses on our People's Insurance Company (Group) of China Limited (PICC Group) investments compared to fair value gains in the same period in the prior year. In addition, the first quarter of 2015 included our share of AerCap’s pre-tax income, which was accounted for under the equity method through the date of sale of most of our shares in the second quarter of 2015. These declines were partially offset by lower interest expense from ongoing liability management activities described in Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Run-off insurance lines reported pre-tax operating income of $31 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to a pre-tax operating loss of $19 million in the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower underwriting loss and an increase in the allocation of net investment income. The decrease in underwriting losses was primarily due to a lower net loss reserve discount charge. See Insurance Reserves – Non-Life Insurance Companies – Discounting of Reserves for further discussion. Based on our internal net investment income allocation model, the allocated net investment income to run-off insurance lines increased primarily due to higher investable funds as a result of the transfers to run-off lines of certain casualty lines, including environmental liability, excess casualty and healthcare coverage that ceased to be offered by Commercial Insurance. See Results of Operations – Net Investment Income for further discussion of our internal allocation model.

INVESTMENTS |
|
Our investment strategies are tailored to the specific business needs of each operating unit. The investment objectives are driven by the respective business models for Non-Life Insurance Companies, Life Insurance Companies and AIG Parent. The primary objectives are generation of investment income, preservation of capital, liquidity management and growth of surplus to support the insurance products. The majority of assets backing our insurance liabilities consist of intermediate and long duration fixed maturity securities.
Investments Highlights in the first quarter of 2016 |
• A decline in interest rates resulted in an increase in our net unrealized gain position in our investment portfolio. Net unrealized gains in our available for sale portfolio increased to approximately $13.5 billion as of March 31, 2016 from approximately $8.8 billion as of December 31, 2015. • We continued to make investments in structured securities and other fixed maturity securities and increased lending activities in mortgage loans with favorable risk versus return characteristics to improve yields and increase net investment income. • Our alternative investments portfolio performance experienced a significant decline in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year due to increased volatility in equity markets, which affected the performance of our hedge fund portfolio. • Blended investment yields on new investments were lower than blended rates on investments that were sold, matured or called. • Other-than-temporary impairments increased due to impairments within the energy sector and in our structured securities portfolio. • We experienced losses on sales of securities in the first quarter of 2016, which decreased our exposure in the energy sector, compared to gains in the same period in 2015 which were driven by a partial divestiture of our PICC P&C and PICC Group equity interests. |
|
Investment strategies are based on considerations that include the local and general market conditions, liability duration and cash flow characteristics, rating agency and regulatory capital considerations, legal investment limitations, tax optimization and diversification.
Some of our key investment strategies are as follows:
• Fixed maturity securities held by the U.S. insurance companies included in Non-Life Insurance Companies consist of a mix of instruments that meet our current risk-return, tax, liquidity, credit quality and diversification objectives.
• Outside of the U.S., fixed maturity securities held by Non-Life Insurance Companies consist primarily of intermediate duration high-grade securities generally denominated in the currencies of the countries in which we operate.
116
• While more of a focus is placed on asset-liability management in Life Insurance Companies, our fundamental strategy across all of our investment portfolios is to optimize the duration characteristics of the assets within a target range based on comparable liability characteristics, to the extent practicable.
• AIG Parent actively manages its assets and liabilities in terms of products, counterparties and duration. AIG Parent’s liquidity sources are held primarily in the form of cash, short-term investments and publicly traded, investment-grade rated fixed maturity securities. Based upon an assessment of its immediate and longer-term funding needs, AIG Parent purchases publicly traded, investment-grade rated fixed maturity securities that can be readily monetized through sales or repurchase agreements. These securities allow us to diversify sources of liquidity while reducing the cost of maintaining sufficient liquidity.

(a) Beginning in the first quarter of 2016, the presentation of income on alternative investments has been refined to include only income from hedge funds, private equity funds and affordable housing partnerships. Prior period disclosures have been reclassified to conform to this presentation. Hedge funds for which we elected the fair value option are recorded as of the balance sheet date. Other hedge funds are generally reported on a one-month lag, while private equity funds are generally reported on a one-quarter lag.
(b) Includes changes in fair value of certain fixed maturity securities where the fair value option has been elected and which are used to economically hedge the interest rate risk in GMWB embedded derivatives. For the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, the net investment income recorded on these securities was $133 million and $44 million, respectively.
Net investment income decreased for the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year due to lower income on alternative investments and lower reinvestment yields.
Non-Life Insurance Companies
|
For the Non-Life Insurance Companies, the duration of liabilities for long-tail casualty lines is greater than that of other lines. As a result, the investment strategy within the Non-Life Insurance Companies focuses on growth of surplus and preservation of capital, subject to liability and other business considerations.
The Non-Life Insurance Companies invest primarily in fixed maturity securities issued by corporations, municipalities and other governmental agencies and also invest in structured securities collateralized by, among other assets, residential and commercial real estate and commercial mortgage loans. While invested assets backing reserves of the Non-Life Insurance Companies are primarily invested in conventional fixed maturity securities, we have continued to allocate a portion of our investment activity into asset classes that offer higher yields, particularly in the domestic operations. In addition, we continue to invest in both fixed rate and floating rate asset-backed investments for their risk-return attributes, as well as to manage our exposure to potential changes in interest rates. This asset diversification has maintained stable average yields while the overall credit ratings of our fixed maturity securities were largely unchanged. We expect to continue to pursue this investment strategy to meet the Non-Life Insurance Companies’ liquidity, duration and credit quality objectives as well as current risk‑return and tax objectives.
In addition, the Non-Life Insurance Companies seek to enhance returns through selective investments in a diversified portfolio of alternative investments. Although these alternative investments are subject to periodic earnings fluctuations, they have historically achieved yields in excess of the fixed maturity portfolio yields and have provided added diversification to the broader portfolio. The Non-Life Insurance Companies’ investment portfolio also includes, to a lesser extent, equity securities.
With respect to non-affiliate over‑the‑counter derivatives, the Non-Life Insurance Companies conduct business with highly rated counterparties and do not expect the counterparties to fail to meet their obligations under the contracts. The Non-Life Insurance Companies have controls in place to monitor credit exposures by limiting transactions with specific counterparties within specified dollar limits and assessing the creditworthiness of counterparties periodically. The Non-Life Insurance Companies generally use ISDA Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes (CSAs) with bilateral collateral provisions to reduce counterparty credit exposures.
Fixed maturity investments of the Non-Life Insurance Companies domestic operations, with an intermediate duration of 4.7 years, are currently comprised primarily of tax-exempt securities, which provide attractive risk-adjusted after-tax returns, as well as taxable municipal bonds, government and agency bonds, and corporate bonds. The majority of these high quality investments are rated A or higher based on composite ratings.
118
Fixed maturity investments held in the Non-Life Insurance Companies foreign operations are of high quality, primarily rated A or higher based on composite ratings, and short to intermediate duration, averaging 3.3 years.
Life Insurance Companies
|
The investment strategy of the Life Insurance Companies is to maximize net investment income and portfolio value, subject to liquidity requirements, capital constraints, diversification requirements, asset‑liability management and available investment opportunities.
The Life Insurance Companies use asset‑liability management as a primary tool to monitor and manage risk in their businesses. The Life Insurance Companies' fundamental investment strategy is to maintain a diversified, high quality portfolio of fixed maturity securities that, to the extent possible, complements the characteristics of liabilities, including duration, which is a measure of sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The investment portfolio of each product line is tailored to the specific characteristics of its insurance liabilities, and as a result, certain portfolios are shorter in duration and others are longer in duration. An extended low interest rate environment may result in a lengthening of liability durations from initial estimates, primarily due to lower lapses.
The Life Insurance Companies invest primarily in fixed maturity securities issued by corporations, municipalities and other governmental agencies; structured securities collateralized by, among other assets, residential and commercial real estate; and commercial mortgage loans.
In addition, the Life Insurance Companies seek to enhance returns through investments in a diversified portfolio of alternative investments. Although these alternative investments are subject to periodic earnings fluctuations, they have historically achieved yields in excess of the fixed maturity portfolio yields. While a diversified portfolio of alternative investments remains a fundamental component of the investment strategy of the Life Insurance Companies, we intend to reduce the overall size of the hedge fund portfolio, in light of changing market conditions and perceived market opportunities, and to continue reducing the size of the private equity portfolio. The Life Insurance Companies investment portfolio also includes, to a lesser extent, equity securities and yield enhancing investments.
The Life Insurance Companies monitor fixed income markets, including the level of interest rates, credit spreads and the shape of the yield curve. The Life Insurance Companies frequently review their interest rate assumptions and actively manage the crediting rates used for their new and in-force business. Business strategies continue to evolve to maintain profitability of the overall business in a historically low interest rate environment. The low interest rate environment makes it more difficult to profitably price many of our products and puts margin pressure on existing products, due to the challenge of investing recurring premiums and deposits and reinvesting investment portfolio cash flows in the low rate environment while maintaining satisfactory investment quality and liquidity. In addition, there is investment risk associated with future premium receipts from certain in‑force business. Specifically, the investment of these future premium receipts may be at a yield below that required to meet future policy liabilities.
Fixed maturity investments of the Life Insurance Companies domestic operations, with an intermediate duration of 6.6 years, are comprised of taxable corporate bonds, as well as taxable municipal and government bonds, and agency and non‑agency structured securities. The majority of these investments are held in the available for sale portfolio and are rated investment grade based on its composite ratings.
Fixed maturity investments held in the Life Insurance Companies foreign operations are of high quality, primarily rated A or higher based on composite ratings, and intermediate to long duration, averaging 14.1 years.
NAIC Designations of Fixed Maturity Securities
|
The Securities Valuation Office (SVO) of the National Association of Insurance Companies (NAIC) evaluates the investments of U.S. insurers for statutory reporting purposes and assigns fixed maturity securities to one of six categories called ‘NAIC Designations.’ In general, NAIC Designations of ‘1’ highest quality, or ‘2’ high quality, include fixed maturity securities
119
considered investment grade, while NAIC Designations of ‘3’ through ‘6’ generally include fixed maturity securities referred to as below investment grade. The NAIC has adopted revised rating methodologies for certain structured securities, including non-agency RMBS and CMBS, which are intended to enable a more precise assessment of the value of such structured securities and increase the accuracy in assessing expected losses to better determine the appropriate capital requirement for such structured securities. These methodologies result in an improved NAIC Designation for such securities compared to the rating typically assigned by the three major rating agencies. The following tables summarize the ratings distribution of Life Insurance Companies fixed maturity security portfolio by NAIC Designation, and the distribution by composite AIG credit rating, which is generally based on ratings of the three major rating agencies. See Investments – Credit Ratings herein for a full description of the composite AIG credit ratings.

* Excludes $4.6 billion of fixed maturity securities for which no NAIC Designation is available because they are not held in legal entities within Life Insurance Companies that require a statutory filing.
|
At March 31, 2016, approximately 91 percent of our fixed maturity securities were held by our domestic entities. Approximately 17 percent of such securities were rated AAA by one or more of the principal rating agencies, and approximately 17 percent were rated below investment grade or not rated. Our investment decision process relies primarily on internally generated fundamental analysis and internal risk ratings. Third-party rating services’ ratings and opinions provide one source of independent perspective for consideration in the internal analysis.
A significant portion of our foreign entities’ fixed maturity securities portfolio is rated by Moody’s Investors’ Service Inc. (Moody’s), Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, a subsidiary of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (S&P), or similar foreign rating services. Rating services are not available for some foreign-issued securities. Our Credit Risk Management department closely reviews the credit quality of the foreign portfolio’s non-rated fixed maturity securities. At March 31, 2016, approximately 16 percent of such investments were either rated AAA or, on the basis of our internal analysis, were equivalent
120
from a credit standpoint to securities rated AAA, and approximately 7 percent were below investment grade or not rated. Approximately 45 percent of the foreign entities’ fixed maturity securities portfolio is comprised of sovereign fixed maturity securities supporting policy liabilities in the country of issuance.
Composite AIG Credit Ratings
|
With respect to our fixed maturity investments, the credit ratings in the table below and in subsequent tables reflect: (a) a composite of the ratings of the three major rating agencies, or when agency ratings are not available, the rating assigned by the NAIC SVO (over 99 percent of total fixed maturity investments), or (b) our equivalent internal ratings when these investments have not been rated by any of the major rating agencies or the NAIC. The “Non-rated” category in those tables consists of fixed maturity securities that have not been rated by any of the major rating agencies, the NAIC or us.
See Enterprise Risk Management herein for a discussion of credit risks associated with Investments.
The following table presents the composite AIG credit ratings of our fixed maturity securities calculated on the basis of their fair value:

* At March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015, approximately 90 percent and 91 percent, respectively, of these investments were rated investment grade.
Our investments in the energy category, as a percentage of total investments in available-for-sale fixed maturities, were 5.5 percent and 5.6 percent at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The decline in energy exposure from December 31, 2015 resulted from unrealized losses due to reduction in the energy sector pricing, sales of securities and other-than-temporary impairments. While the energy investments are primarily investment grade and are actively managed, the category continues to experience volatility that could adversely affect credit quality and fair value.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairments
|
To determine other-than-temporary impairments, we use fundamental credit analyses of individual securities without regard to rating agency ratings. Based on this analysis, we expect to receive cash flows sufficient to cover the amortized cost of all below investment grade securities for which credit impairments were not recognized.
The following tables present other-than-temporary impairment charges recorded in earnings on fixed maturity securities, equity securities, private equity funds and hedge funds.

* Includes other-than-temporary impairment charges on private equity funds, hedge funds and direct private equity investments.
We recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges in the first quarters of 2016 and 2015 related to:
• issuer-specific credit events;
• securities that we intend to sell or for which it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell;
• declines due to foreign exchange rates;
• adverse changes in estimated cash flows on certain structured securities; and
• securities that experienced severe market valuation declines.
131
In addition, impairments are recorded on real estate and investments in life settlements.
In periods subsequent to the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment charge for available for sale fixed maturity securities that is not foreign-exchange related, we generally prospectively accrete into earnings the difference between the new amortized cost and the expected undiscounted recoverable value over the remaining life of the security. The accretion that was recognized for these securities in earnings was $239 million and $188 million in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2015 Annual Report for a discussion of our other-than-temporary impairment accounting policy.
The following table shows the aging of the pre-tax unrealized losses of fixed maturity and equity securities, the extent to which the fair value is less than amortized cost or cost, and the number of respective items in each category:

(b) Represents the percentage by which fair value is less than cost at March 31, 2016.
(c) For bonds, represents amortized cost.
(d) The effect on Net income of unrealized losses after taxes will be mitigated upon realization because certain realized losses will result in current decreases in the amortization of certain DAC.
(e) Item count is by CUSIP by subsidiary.
Change in Unrealized Gains and Losses on Investments
|
The change in net unrealized gains and losses on investments in the first quarter of each of 2016 and 2015 was primarily attributable to increases in the fair value of fixed maturity securities. For the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, net unrealized gains related to fixed maturity and equity securities increased by $4.7 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, due to a decrease in interest rates and narrowing of credit spreads.

* Includes realized gains due to the sale of Class B shares of Prudential Financial, Inc.
Net realized capital losses on investments in the first quarter of 2016 were primarily driven by losses on sales of fixed maturity securities in the energy sector, other than temporary impairments, as discussed above, and foreign exchange losses, partially offset by gains realized on the sale of Class B shares of Prudential Financial, Inc. Foreign exchange losses were primarily due to $483 million of remeasurement losses for a short term intercompany balance that was matched with available for sale investments in fixed maturity securities denominated in the same foreign currencies. Unrealized gains and losses on the available for sale investments were recorded in other comprehensive income resulting in an immaterial impact on our overall equity or book value per share from this arrangement.
Net realized capital gains in the first quarter of 2015 were primarily driven by gains on sales of our investments in PICC and Class B shares of Prudential Financial, Inc., and foreign exchange gains, which included $121 million of gains related to the intercompany notional cash pooling arrangement, discussed above.

Gross loss reserves represent the accumulation of estimates of ultimate losses, including estimates for IBNR and loss expenses, less estimated salvage and subrogation and applicable discount. The Non-Life Insurance Companies regularly review and update the methods and assumptions used to determine loss reserve estimates and to establish the resulting reserves. Any adjustments resulting from this review are reflected in pre‑tax operating income. Because loss reserve estimates are subject to the outcome of future events, changes in estimates are unavoidable given that loss trends vary and time is often required for changes in trends to be recognized and confirmed. Reserve changes that increase prior years’ estimates of ultimate cost are referred to as unfavorable or adverse development or reserve strengthening. Reserve changes that decrease prior years’ estimates of ultimate cost are referred to as favorable development. See MD&A – Critical Accounting Estimates – Details of the Loss Reserving Process in the 2015 Annual Report.
Net loss reserves represent gross loss reserves reduced by reinsurance recoverable, net of an allowance for unrecoverable reinsurance.

* Includes $1.8 billion of reinsurance recoverable under a retroactive reinsurance agreement at both March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015.
Gross loss reserves before reinsurance and discount are net of contractual deductible recoverable amounts due from policyholders of approximately $12.9 billion and $12.6 billion at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. These recoverable amounts are related to certain policies with high deductibles (meaning, the policy attachment point is above high dollar amounts retained by the insured through self-insured retentions, deductibles, retrospective programs, or captive arrangements; each referred to generically as “deductibles”), primarily for U.S. commercial casualty business. With respect to the deductible portion of the claim the Non-Life Insurance Companies manage and pay the entire claim on behalf of the insured and are reimbursed by the insured for the deductible portion of the claim. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Non-Life Insurance Companies held collateral of approximately $9.5 billion and $9.6 billion, respectively, for these deductible recoverable amounts, consisting primarily of letters of credit and assets in trusts.

U.S. Workers’ Compensation
The Non-Life Insurance Companies discount certain workers’ compensation reserves in accordance with practices prescribed or permitted by New York, Pennsylvania and Delaware. New York rules generally do not permit non-tabular discounting on IBNR and prescribe a fixed 5 percent discount rate for application to case reserves. Pennsylvania permits non-tabular discounting of IBNR and approved variable discount rates determined using risk-free rates based on the U.S. Treasury forward yield curve plus a liquidity margin, applicable to IBNR and case reserves. Delaware has permitted discounting on the same basis as the Pennsylvania domiciled companies.
The net increase in workers’ compensation discount in the first quarter of 2016 of $10 million was due to newly established reserves for accident year 2016, which increased the discount by $48 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the prior year period. This increase was partially offset by a $27 million reduction for accident years 2015 and prior, primarily from accretion of discount on reserves for the first quarter of 2016. In addition, decreases in the forward yield curve component of the discount rates resulted in an $11 million decrease in the loss reserve discount, as Treasury rates generally decreased in the first quarter of 2016 along the payout pattern horizon as compared to the prior periods, partially offset by an increase in the credit spread.
Quarterly Reserving Conclusion
|
AIG net loss reserves represent our best estimate of the liability for net losses and loss adjustment expenses as of March 31, 2016. While we regularly review the adequacy of established loss reserves, there can be no assurance that our recorded loss reserves will not develop adversely in future years and materially exceed our loss reserves as of March 31, 2016. In our opinion, such adverse development and resulting increase in reserves are not likely to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, although such events could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations for an individual reporting period.
The following table presents the rollforward of net loss reserves:

Net Loss Development
|
In determining the loss development from prior accident years, we consider and evaluate inputs from many sources, including actual claims data, the performance of prior reserve estimates, observed industry trends, our internal peer review processes (including challenges and recommendations from our Enterprise Risk Management group) as well as the views of third party actuarial firms. We use these sources to improve our evaluation techniques and to analyze and assess the change in estimated ultimate loss for each accident year by class of business. Our analyses produce a range of indications from various methods, from which we select our best estimate.
137
We analyze and evaluate the change in estimated ultimate loss for each accident year by class of business. For example, if loss emergence for a class of business is different than expected for certain accident years, we examine the indicated effect such emergence would have on the reserves of that class of business. In some cases, the lower or higher than expected emergence may result in no clear change in the ultimate loss estimate for the accident years in question, and no adjustment would be made to the reserves for the class of business. In other cases, the lower or higher than expected emergence may result in a change, either favorable or unfavorable. As appropriate, we make adjustments in response to the difference between the actual and expected loss emergence for each accident year. As part of our reserving process, we also consider notices of claims received with respect to emerging and/or evolving issues, in particular those related to complex, claims-related class action litigation and latent exposure claims.
In the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, the favorable prior year loss reserve development was $66 million. This was driven by favorable development from Property excluding catastrophes, both domestically and internationally, International Specialty lines, and International Consumer - Personal Insurance, partially offset by domestic catastrophes.
In the first quarter of 2015, the adverse prior year loss reserve development was $24 million, which was driven by increased automobile claim severity in Excess and Primary Casualty, partially offset by Property excluding catastrophes, both domestically and internationally.
We recognized return premiums on loss sensitive business of $6 million and $11 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which entirely offset favorable development in that business.
See Results of Operations — Commercial Insurance and Results of Operations — Consumer Personal Insurance Results herein for further discussion of net loss development.

Asbestos and Environmental Reserves
|
Loss Reserve Estimates - Asbestos and Environmental
|
The estimation of loss reserves relating to asbestos and environmental claims on insurance policies written many years ago is subject to greater uncertainty than other types of claims due to inconsistent court decisions as well as judicial interpretations and legislative actions that in some cases have tended to broaden coverage beyond the original intent of such policies and in others have expanded theories of liability.
As described more fully in the 2015 Annual Report, our reserves relating to asbestos and environmental claims reflect comprehensive ground‑up and top-down analyses performed periodically. In the first quarter of 2016, we increased our gross asbestos incurred losses by $2 million due to accretion of discount, while our net asbestos incurred losses remained unchanged. For the same period, our gross and net environmental incurred losses remained unchanged. In the first quarter of 2015, we increased our gross asbestos reserves by $7 million and our net asbestos reserves by $3 million primarily to reflect an increase in one account and accretion of discount. There was no additional incurred loss for environmental claims in the first quarter of 2015.
In addition to the U.S. asbestos and environmental reserve amounts shown in the tables below, the Non - Life Insurance Companies also have asbestos reserves relating to foreign risks written by non‑U.S. entities of $115 million gross and $89 million net as of March 31, 2016. The asbestos reserves relating to non‑U.S. risks written by non‑U.S. entities were $121 million gross and $93 million net as of December 31, 2015.

Life Insurance Companies DAC and Reserves
|
The following section provides discussion of deferred policy acquisition costs and insurance reserves for Life Insurance Companies.
Variable Annuity Guaranteed Benefit Features and Hedging Program
Our Retirement Income Solutions and Group Retirement businesses offer variable annuity products with riders that provide guaranteed living benefit features, which include GMWB and GMAB. The liabilities for GMWB and GMAB are accounted for as embedded derivatives measured at fair value. The fair value of the embedded derivatives may fluctuate significantly based on market interest rates, equity prices, credit spreads and market volatility.
In addition to risk-mitigating features in our variable annuity product design, we have an economic hedging program designed to manage market risk from GMWB and GMAB, including exposures to changes in interest rates, equity prices, credit spreads and volatilities. The hedging program utilizes derivative instruments, including but not limited to equity options, futures contracts and interest rate swap and swaption contracts, as well as fixed maturity securities with a fair value election. See Enterprise Risk Management – Life Insurance Companies Key Insurance Risks – Variable Annuity Risk Management and
140
Hedging Program in the 2015 Annual Report for additional discussion of market risk management related to these product features.
Impact on Pre-tax Income
Changes in the fair value of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives, and changes in the fair value of related derivative hedging instruments, are recorded in Other realized capital gains (losses). Realized capital gains (losses), as well as net investment income from changes in the fair value of the fixed maturity securities used in the variable annuity hedging program, for which the fair value option has been elected, are excluded from pre-tax operating income of the Retirement operating segment.
The change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives and the change in the value of the hedging portfolio are not expected to be fully offsetting, primarily due to differences between the U.S. GAAP valuation of the embedded derivatives and the economic hedge target. The non-performance or “own credit” spread adjustment (NPA), which adjusts the rate used to discount projected benefit cash flows for the U.S. GAAP valuation of the embedded derivatives, is excluded from the economic hedge target. When corporate credit spreads widen, the change in the NPA generally reduces the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities, resulting in a gain, and when corporate credit spreads narrow or tighten, the change in the NPA generally increases the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities, resulting in a loss. See Differences in Valuation of Embedded Derivatives and Economic Hedge Target, below.
The following table presents the net increase (decrease) to consolidated pre-tax income from changes in the fair value of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives and related hedges:

Losses from the change in the fair value of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives were more than offset by changes in the fair value of the related hedging portfolio, which resulted in a net increase in consolidated pre-tax income in the first quarters of 2016 and 2015. In the first quarters of both 2016 and 2015, the increase in the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities was primarily due to decreases in market interest rates. The change in the fair value of the NPA reduced the embedded derivative liability and increased pre-tax income in the first quarters of both 2016 and 2015.
The losses from changes in the fair value of the embedded derivatives were more than offset by the following changes in the fair value of the variable annuity hedging portfolio:
• Changes in the fair value of fixed maturity securities, for which the fair value option has been elected, that are used as a capital-efficient way to economically hedge interest rate risk. Effective June 30, 2015, we discontinued our U.S. Treasury bond interest rate hedging program and initiated a corporate bond hedging program, which is intended to provide the same capital efficiency as the previous U.S. Treasury bond hedging program. The first quarters of 2016 and 2015 both reflected increases in the fair value of the bond hedging programs due to decreases in market interest rates, which partially offset the interest rate-related increases in the embedded derivative liabilities. The change in the fair value of these bonds is reported in net investment income on the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
• Changes in the fair value of interest rate derivative contracts, which included swaps, swaptions, futures and options, resulted in gains in the first quarters of 2016 and 2015 due to decreasing market interest rates.
141
• Losses from the change in the fair value of equity derivative contracts, which included futures and options, were relatively higher in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year, which had more favorable equity market returns.
Differences in Valuation of Embedded Derivatives and Economic Hedge Target
The variable annuity hedging program utilizes an economic hedge target, which represents an estimate of the underlying economic drivers of the embedded derivatives. The economic hedge target differs from the U.S. GAAP valuation of the GMWB and GMAB embedded derivatives due to the following:
• Rider fees are 100 percent included in the economic hedge target present value calculations; the U.S. GAAP valuation reflects those collected fees attributed to the embedded derivative such that the initial value at contract issue equals zero;
• Actuarial assumptions for U.S. GAAP are adjusted to remove explicit risk margins, including margins for policyholder behavior and fund basis risk, and use best estimate assumptions for the economic hedge target; and
• Non-performance adjustment (NPA or “own credit” risk) is excluded from the discount rates used for the economic hedge target.
The market value of the hedge portfolio compared to the economic hedge target at any point in time may be different and is not expected to be fully offsetting. In addition to the derivatives held in conjunction with the variable annuity hedging program, the Life Insurance Companies have cash and invested assets available to cover future claims payable under these guarantees. The primary sources of difference between the change in the fair value of the hedging portfolio and the economic hedge target include:
• Basis risk due to the variance between expected and actual fund returns, which may be either positive or negative;
• Realized volatility versus implied volatility;
• Actual versus expected changes in the hedge target related to items not subject to hedging, particularly policyholder behavior; and
• Risk exposures that we have elected not to explicitly or fully hedge.

Policy acquisition costs and policy issuance costs that are incremental and directly related to the successful acquisition of new or renewal of existing contracts for investment-oriented products are deferred and amortized, with interest, in relation to the incidence of estimated gross profits to be realized over a period that approximates the estimated lives of the contracts. Estimated gross profits include net investment income and spreads, net realized capital gains and losses, fees, surrender charges, expenses, and mortality gains and losses. If the assumptions used for estimated gross profits change significantly, DAC and related reserves (which may include VOBA, SIA, guaranteed benefit reserves and unearned revenue reserve) are recalculated using the new assumptions, and any resulting adjustment is included in income. Updating such assumptions may result in acceleration of amortization in some products and deceleration of amortization in other products.
DAC for universal life and investment-type products (collectively, investment-oriented products) is adjusted at each balance sheet date to reflect the change in DAC as if fixed maturity and equity securities available for sale had been sold at their stated aggregate fair value and the proceeds reinvested at current yields (shadow DAC). Shadow DAC generally moves in the opposite direction of the change in unrealized appreciation of the available for sale securities portfolio, reducing the reported DAC balance when market interest rates decline. In addition, significant unrealized appreciation of investments in a prolonged low interest rate environment may cause additional future policy benefit liabilities to be recorded (shadow loss reserves). Market interest rates decreased in the first quarter of 2016. As a result, the Life Insurance Companies’ unrealized appreciation of investments at March 31, 2016 increased by $3.6 billion compared to December 31, 2015, which resulted in an increase in the shadow DAC offset and an increase in shadow loss reserves. Shadow loss reserves increased by $687 million at March 31, 2016 compared to December 31, 2015.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES |
|
Liquidity refers to the ability to generate sufficient cash resources to meet our payment obligations. It is defined as cash and unencumbered assets that can be monetized in a short period of time at a reasonable cost. We manage our liquidity prudently through various risk committees, policies and procedures, and a stress testing and liquidity risk framework established by Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). Our liquidity risk framework is designed to manage liquidity at both AIG Parent and subsidiaries to meet our financial obligations over a twelve-month period under a liquidity stress scenario. See Enterprise Risk Management — Risk Appetite, Limits, Identification, and Measurement and Enterprise Risk Management — Liquidity Risk Management below for additional information.
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 the profitability of our insurance subsidiaries. We must comply with numerous constraints on our minimum capital positions. These constraints drive the requirements for capital adequacy for both AIG and the individual businesses and are based on internally-defined risk tolerances, regulatory requirements, rating agency and creditor expectations and business needs. Actual capital levels are monitored on a regular basis, and using ERM’s stress testing methodology, we evaluate the capital impact of potential macroeconomic, financial and insurance stresses in relation to the relevant capital constraints of both AIG and our insurance subsidiaries.
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 as was the case in 2008. Additional collateral calls, deterioration in investment portfolios or reserve strengthening affecting statutory surplus, higher surrenders of annuities and other policies, downgrades in credit ratings, or catastrophic losses may result in significant additional cash or capital needs and loss of sources of liquidity and capital. In addition, regulatory and other legal restrictions could limit our ability to transfer funds freely, either to or from our subsidiaries.
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, paying dividends to our shareholders and share repurchases.
145

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 and operating expenses.
Interest payments totaled $362 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $307 million in the same period in the prior year. Excluding interest payments, AIG had operating cash outflow of $605 million in the first quarter of 2016 and positive operating cash flow of $695 million in the first quarter of 2015.
Cash used in operating activities of our Non-Life Insurance Companies in the first quarter of 2016 was $1.0 billion compared to $1.2 billion of cash used in the same period in the prior year, primarily attributable to increases in loss payments in the first quarter of 2015.
147
Cash provided by operating activities of our Life Insurance Companies was $306 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to cash provided of $108 million in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a greater increase in other assets and liabilities, net, in the first quarter of 2016.
Investing Cash Flow Activities
|
Net cash provided by investing activities in the first quarters of 2016 and 2015 included approximately $(199) million and $99 million, respectively, of cash collateral (paid) received in connection with our Life Insurance Companies’ securities lending program.
Financing Cash Flow Activities
|
Net cash used in financing activities in the first quarter of 2016 included:
• approximately $363 million to pay a dividend of $0.32 per share on AIG Common Stock;
• approximately $3.5 billion to repurchase approximately 63 million shares of AIG Common Stock;
• $173 million to repurchase 10 million warrants to purchase shares of AIG Common Stock; and
• approximately $958 million to repay long-term debt.
Net cash used in financing activities in the first quarter of 2015 included:
• approximately $170 million to pay a dividend of $0.125 per share on AIG Common Stock;
• approximately $1.4 billion to repurchase approximately 29 million shares of AIG Common Stock; and
• approximately $1.8 billion to repay long-term debt.
Liquidity and Capital Resources of AIG Parent and Subsidiaries
|
AIG Parent
|
As of March 31, 2016, AIG Parent had approximately $11.6 billion in liquidity sources. AIG Parent’s liquidity sources are primarily held in the form of cash, short-term investments and publicly traded, investment grade rated fixed maturity securities. Fixed maturity securities primarily include U.S. government and government sponsored entity securities, U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, corporate and municipal bonds and certain other highly rated securities. AIG Parent actively manages its assets and liabilities in terms of products, counterparties and duration. Based upon an assessment of funding needs, the liquidity sources can be readily monetized through sales, repurchase agreements or contributed as admitted assets to regulated insurance companies. AIG Parent liquidity is monitored through the use of various internal liquidity risk measures. 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 subsidiary capital needs.
We generally manage capital flows between AIG Parent and its subsidiaries through internal, Board-approved policies and standards. In addition, AIG Parent has unconditional capital maintenance agreements (CMAs) in place with certain subsidiaries. Nevertheless, regulatory and other legal restrictions could limit our ability to transfer capital freely, either to or from our subsidiaries.
148
We believe that we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to satisfy our reasonably foreseeable future requirements and meet our obligations to our creditors, debt-holders and insurance company subsidiaries. We expect to access the debt 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 growth or acquisition opportunities) or mitigate risks inherent to our business, we may develop plans to distribute such capital to shareholders via dividends or share repurchase authorizations or deploy such capital towards liability management.
In the normal course, it is expected that a portion of the capital released by our insurance operations or through the utilization of AIG’s deferred tax assets may be available for distribution to shareholders. Additionally, it is expected that capital associated with businesses or investments that do not directly support our insurance operations may be available for distribution to shareholders or deployment towards liability management upon its monetization.
In developing plans to distribute capital, AIG considers a number of factors, including, but not limited to: the capital resources available to support our insurance operations and business strategies, AIG’s funding capacity and capital resources in comparison to internal benchmarks, expectations for capital generation, rating agency expectations for capital, as well as regulatory standards for capital and capital distributions.
In January 2016, AIG Parent made a capital contribution of approximately $2.9 billion to our Non-Life Insurance Companies as a result of our fourth quarter 2015 reserve strengthening.

(b) Unencumbered securities consist of publicly traded, investment grade rated fixed maturity securities. Fixed maturity securities primarily include U.S. government and government sponsored entity securities, U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, corporate and municipal bonds and certain other highly rated securities.
(c) For additional information relating to this syndicated credit facility, see Credit Facilities below.
Non-Life Insurance Companies
|
We expect that our Non-Life 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 Non-Life 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 Non-Life Insurance Companies’ liquidity is monitored through the use of various internal liquidity risk measures. The primary sources of liquidity are premiums, fees, reinsurance recoverables and investment income. The primary uses of liquidity are paid losses, reinsurance payments, dividends, expenses, investments and collateral requirements.
Our Non-Life Insurance Companies may require additional funding to meet capital or liquidity needs under certain circumstances. Large catastrophes may require us to provide additional support to our affected operations. Downgrades in our credit ratings could put pressure on the insurer financial strength ratings of our subsidiaries, which could result in non‑renewals or cancellations by policyholders and adversely affect the subsidiary’s ability to meet its own obligations. Increases in market
149
interest rates may adversely affect the financial strength ratings of our subsidiaries, as rating agency capital models may reduce the amount of available capital relative to required capital. Other potential events that could cause a liquidity strain include an economic collapse of a nation or region significant to our operations, nationalization, catastrophic terrorist acts, pandemics or other events causing economic or political upheaval.
Certain Non-Life Insurance Companies are members of the Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLBs) in their respective districts. Borrowings from the FHLBs may be used to supplement liquidity. As of both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, none of our Non-Life Insurance Companies had FHLB borrowings outstanding.
AIG Parent and Ascot Corporate Name Limited (ACNL), a Non-Life Insurance Company, are parties to a $725 million letter of credit facility. ACNL, as a member of the Lloyd’s of London insurance syndicate (Lloyd’s), is required to hold capital at Lloyd’s, known as Funds at Lloyds (FAL). Under the facility, the entire FAL capital requirement of $625 million as of March 31, 2016, which supports the 2016 and 2017 years of account, was satisfied with a letter of credit in that amount issued under the facility.
AIG generally manages capital between AIG Parent and our Non-Life Insurance Companies through internal, Board-approved policies and guidelines. In addition, AIG Parent is party to a CMA with its Mortgage Guaranty insurance company. Among other things, the CMA provides that AIG Parent will maintain capital and surplus of the Mortgage Guaranty insurance company at or above a specified minimum required capital based on a specified risk-to-capital ratio. In addition, the CMA provides that if capital and surplus of the Mortgage Guaranty insurance company is in excess of that same specified minimum required capital, subject to its board approval and compliance with applicable insurance laws, the Mortgage Guaranty insurance company would declare and pay ordinary dividends to its equity holders up to an amount necessary to reduce projected or actual capital and surplus to a level equal to or not materially greater than such specified minimum required capital. As structured, the CMA contemplates that the specified minimum required capital would be reviewed and agreed upon at least annually. As of March 31, 2016, the minimum required capital for the CMA with the Mortgage Guaranty insurance company is based on a risk-to-capital ratio of 19 to 1.
In the first quarter of 2016, our Non-Life Insurance Companies paid approximately $459 million in dividends in the form of cash and fixed maturity securities to AIG Parent. The fixed maturity securities primarily include U.S. government and government sponsored entity securities, U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, corporate and municipal bonds and certain other highly rated securities.
Life Insurance Companies
|
We expect that our Life 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 Life Insurance Companies’ liquidity sources are primarily held in the form of cash, short-term investments and publicly traded, investment grade rated fixed maturity securities.
Each of our Life Insurance Companies’ liquidity is monitored through the use of various internal liquidity risk measures. The primary sources of liquidity are premiums, fees, reinsurance recoverables and investment income. The primary uses of liquidity are benefit claims, interest payments, surrenders, withdrawals, dividends, expenses, investments and collateral requirements.
Management believes that because of the size and liquidity of our Life Insurance Companies’ investment portfolios, normal deviations from projected claim or surrender experience would not create significant liquidity risk. Furthermore, our Life Insurance Companies’ products contain certain features that mitigate surrender risk, including surrender charges. However, as we saw in 2008, in times of extreme capital markets disruption, liquidity needs could outpace resources. As part of their risk management framework, our Life Insurance Companies continue to evaluate and, where appropriate, pursue strategies and programs to improve their liquidity position and facilitate their ability to maintain a fully invested asset portfolio.
Certain of our U.S. Life Insurance Companies are members of the FHLBs in their respective districts. Borrowings from the FHLBs are used to supplement liquidity or for other uses deemed appropriate by management. Our U.S. Life Insurance
150
Companies had outstanding borrowings from the FHLBs in an aggregate amount of approximately $2 million as of both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
Certain of our U.S. Life Insurance Companies have programs, which began in 2012, that lend securities from their investment portfolio to supplement liquidity or for other uses as deemed appropriate by management. Under these programs, these U.S. Life Insurance Companies lend securities to financial institutions and receive cash as collateral equal to 102 percent of the fair value of the loaned securities. Cash collateral received is invested in short-term investments. Additionally, the aggregate amount of securities that a Life Insurance Company is able to lend under its program at any time is limited to five percent of its general account statutory-basis admitted assets. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our U.S. Life Insurance Companies had $1.5 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, of securities subject to these agreements and $1.5 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, of liabilities to borrowers for collateral received.
AIG generally manages capital between AIG Parent and our Life Insurance Companies through internal, Board-approved policies and guidelines. In addition, AIG Parent is party to a CMA with AGC Life Insurance Company. Among other things, the CMA provides that AIG Parent will maintain the total adjusted capital of AGC Life Insurance Company at or above a specified minimum percentage of its projected NAIC Company Action Level Risk-Based Capital (RBC). As of March 31, 2016, the specified minimum percentage under this CMA was 250 percent.
In the first quarter of 2016, our U.S. Life Insurance Companies paid approximately $774 million to AIG Parent in dividends and loan repayments in the form of cash and fixed maturity securities. The fixed maturity securities primarily included U.S. government and government sponsored entity securities, U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, corporate and municipal bonds and certain other highly rated securities.
|
We maintain a committed, revolving syndicated credit facility (the Five-Year Facility) as a potential source of liquidity for general corporate purposes. The Five-Year Facility provides for aggregate commitments by the bank syndicate to provide unsecured revolving loans and/or standby letters of credit of up to $4.5 billion without any limits on the type of borrowings and is scheduled to expire in November 2020.
As of March 31, 2016, a total of $4.5 billion remains available under the Five-Year Facility. Our ability to borrow under the Five-Year Facility is not contingent on our credit ratings. However, our ability to borrow under the Five-Year Facility is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain legal, operating, administrative and financial covenants and other requirements contained in the Five-Year 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 Five-Year Facility would restrict our access to the Five-Year Facility and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. We expect to borrow under the Five-Year Facility from time to time, and may use the proceeds for general corporate purposes.

(a) Primarily includes contracts to purchase future services and other capital expenditures.
(b) Does not reflect unrecognized tax benefits of $4.5 billion, the timing of which is uncertain.
Loss Reserves
|
Loss reserves relate to our Non-Life Insurance Companies and represent future losses and loss adjustment expense payments estimated based on historical loss development payment patterns. Due to the significance of the assumptions used, the payments by period presented above could be materially different from actual required payments. We believe that our Non-Life Insurance Companies maintain adequate financial resources to meet the actual required payments under these obligations.
Insurance and Investment Contract Liabilities
|
Insurance and investment contract liabilities, including GIC liabilities, relate to our Life Insurance Companies. These liabilities include various investment-type products with contractually scheduled maturities, including periodic payments. These liabilities also include benefit and claim liabilities, of which a significant portion represents policies and contracts that do not have stated contractual maturity dates and may not result in any future payment obligations. For these policies and contracts (i) we are not currently making payments until the occurrence of an insurable event, such as death or disability, (ii) payments are conditional on survivorship or (iii) payment may occur due to a surrender or other non-scheduled event beyond our control.
We have made significant assumptions to determine the estimated undiscounted cash flows of these contractual policy benefits. These assumptions include mortality, morbidity, future lapse rates, expenses, investment returns and interest crediting rates, offset by expected future deposits and premiums on in-force policies. Due to the significance of the assumptions, the periodic amounts presented could be materially different from actual required payments. The amounts
152
presented in this table are undiscounted and exceed the future policy benefits and policyholder contract deposits included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We believe that our Life Insurance Companies have adequate financial resources to meet the payments actually required under these obligations. These subsidiaries have substantial liquidity in the form of cash and short-term investments. In addition, our Life Insurance Companies maintain significant levels of investment grade rated fixed maturity securities, including substantial holdings in government and corporate bonds, and could seek to monetize those holdings in the event operating cash flows are insufficient. We expect liquidity needs related to GIC liabilities to be funded through cash flows generated from maturities and sales of invested assets.
Borrowings
|
Our borrowings exclude those incurred by consolidated investments and include hybrid financial instrument liabilities recorded at fair value. We expect to repay the long-term debt maturities and interest accrued on borrowings by AIG through maturing investments and dispositions of invested assets, future cash flows from operations, cash flows generated from invested assets, future debt issuance and other financing arrangements. Borrowings supported by assets of AIG include various notes and bonds payable as well as GIAs that are supported by cash and investments held by AIG Parent and certain non-insurance subsidiaries for the repayment of those obligations.

(a) Includes construction guarantees connected to affordable housing investments by our Life Insurance Companies. Excludes potential amounts for indemnification obligations included in asset sales agreements. See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on indemnification obligations.
(b) Includes commitments to invest in private equity funds, hedge funds and other funds and commitments to purchase and develop real estate in the United States and abroad. The commitments to invest in private equity funds, hedge funds and other funds are called at the discretion of each fund, as needed for funding new investments or expenses of the fund. The expiration of these commitments is estimated in the table above based on the expected life cycle of the related fund, consistent with past trends of requirements for funding. Investors under these commitments are primarily insurance and real estate subsidiaries.
(c) Does not include guarantees, CMAs or other support arrangements among AIG consolidated entities.
(d) Primarily represents liquidity facilities provided in connection with certain municipal swap transactions and collateralized bond obligations.
(e) Includes a five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility of up to $500 million between AerCap Ireland Capital Limited, as borrower, and AIG Parent, as lender (the AerCap Credit Facility) scheduled to mature in May 2019. The AerCap Credit Facility permits loans for general corporate purposes. At March 31, 2016, no amounts were outstanding under the AerCap Credit Facility.
(f) Excludes commitments with respect to pension plans. The remaining annual pension contribution for 2016 is expected to be approximately $45 million for U.S. and non-U.S. plans.
Arrangements with Variable Interest Entities
|
We enter into various arrangements with variable interest entities (VIEs) in the normal course of business, and we consolidate a VIE when we are the primary beneficiary of the entity. For a further discussion of our involvement with VIEs, see Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Indemnification Agreements
|
We are subject to financial guarantees and indemnity arrangements in connection with our sales of businesses. These arrangements may be triggered by declines in asset values, specified business contingencies, the realization of contingent liabilities, litigation developments, or breaches of representations, warranties or covenants provided by us. These arrangements are typically subject to time limitations, defined by contract or by operation of law, such as by prevailing statutes of limitation. Depending on the specific terms of the arrangements, the maximum potential obligation may or may not be subject to contractual limitations. For additional information regarding our indemnification agreements, see Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
We have recorded liabilities for certain of these arrangements where it is possible to estimate them. These liabilities are not material in the aggregate. We are unable to develop a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential payout under some of these arrangements. Overall, we believe that it is unlikely we will have to make any material payments under these arrangements.

(a) AIG Parent guarantees all such debt, except for MIP notes payable and Series AIGFP matched notes and bonds payable, which are direct obligations of AIG Parent. Collateral posted to third parties was $2.4 billion at both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. This collateral primarily consists of securities of the U.S. government and government sponsored entities and generally cannot be repledged or resold by the counterparties.
(b) Primarily represents adjustments to the fair value of debt.
(c) At March 31, 2016, includes debt of consolidated investment vehicles related to real estate investments of $2.5 billion, affordable housing partnership investments and securitizations of $2.3 billion and other securitization vehicles and investments of $273 million. At December 31, 2015, includes debt of consolidated investment vehicles related to real estate investments of $2.4 billion, affordable housing partnership investments and securitizations of $2.2 billion and other securitization vehicles and investments of $359 million.
(d) Includes the effect of consolidating previously unconsolidated partnerships.

(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 may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.
(d) AIG guarantees all obligations of AIG Financial Products Corp.
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.
157
In the event of adverse actions on our long-term debt ratings by the major rating agencies, AIGFP and certain other AIG entities would be required to post additional collateral under some derivative transactions or could experience termination of the transactions. Such requirements and terminations could adversely affect our business, our consolidated results of operations in a reporting period or our liquidity. In the event of a further downgrade of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings, AIGFP and certain other AIG entities would be required to post additional collateral, and certain of the counterparties of AIGFP or of such other AIG entities would be permitted to terminate their contracts 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.
For a discussion of the effects of downgrades in the financial strength ratings of our insurance companies or our credit ratings, see Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein and Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors – Liquidity, Capital and Credit in our 2015 Annual Report.

For a discussion of our regulation and supervision by different regulatory authorities in the United States and abroad, including with respect to our liquidity and capital resources, see Item 1. Business — Regulation and Item 1A. Risk Factors — Regulation in our 2015 Annual Report and Item 2. MD&A – Regulatory Environment and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
On February 11, 2016, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on AIG Common Stock of $0.32 per share, payable on March 28, 2016 to shareholders of record on March 14, 2016. On May 2, 2016, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on AIG Common Stock of $0.32 per share, payable on June 27, 2016 to shareholders of record on June 13, 2016. The payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on various factors, including the regulatory framework applicable to us, as discussed further in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2015 Annual Report.
Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of shares of AIG Common Stock through a series of actions. On February 11, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized an additional increase of $5 billion to the share repurchase authorization. As of May 2, 2016, approximately $3.7 billion remained under the share repurchase authorization. Shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market, private purchases, through forward, derivative, accelerated repurchase or automatic repurchase transactions or otherwise (including through the purchase of warrants). Certain of our share repurchases have been and may from time to time be effected through Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plans. The timing of any future share repurchases will depend on market conditions, our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and other factors, including the regulatory framework applicable to us.
During the first quarter of 2016, we repurchased approximately 63 million shares of AIG Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $3.5 billion pursuant to this authorization, and we repurchased 10 million warrants to purchase shares of AIG Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $173 million pursuant to this authorization. Pursuant to an Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plan, from April 1 to May 2, 2016, we have repurchased approximately $870 million of additional shares of AIG Common Stock.
Dividend Restrictions
|
Payments of dividends to AIG by its insurance subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions imposed by regulatory authorities. See Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2015 Annual Report for a discussion of restrictions on payments of dividends by our subsidiaries.

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
|
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 supervises and integrates the risk management functions in each of our business units, providing senior management with a consolidated view of the firm’s major risk positions. Within each business unit, senior leaders and executives approve risk‑taking policies and targeted risk tolerance within the framework provided by ERM. ERM supports our businesses and management in the embedding of enterprise risk management in our key day-to-day business processes and in identifying, assessing, quantifying, managing, monitoring and reporting, and mitigating the risks taken by us and our businesses. 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 a further discussion of AIG’s risk management program, see Part II, Item 7. MD&A ─ Enterprise Risk Management in the 2015 Annual Report.

Credit risk is defined as the risk that our customers or counterparties are unable or unwilling to repay their contractual obligations when they become due. Credit risk may also result from a downgrade of a counterparty’s credit ratings or a widening of its credit spreads.
We devote considerable resources to managing our direct and indirect credit exposures. These exposures may arise from, but are not limited to, fixed income investments, equity securities, deposits, commercial paper investments, reverse repurchase agreements and repurchase agreements, corporate and consumer loans, leases, reinsurance recoverables, counterparty risk arising from derivatives activities, collateral extended to counterparties, insurance risk cessions to third parties, financial guarantees and letters of credit.
We monitor and control our company-wide credit risk concentrations and attempt to avoid unwanted or excessive risk accumulations, whether funded or unfunded. To minimize the level of credit risk in some circumstances, we may require mitigants, such as third‑party guarantees, reinsurance or collateral, including commercial bank-issued letters of credit and trust collateral accounts. We treat these guarantees, reinsurance recoverables, and letters of credit as credit exposure and include them in our risk concentration exposure data. We also monitor closely the quality of any trust collateral accounts.
See Investments – Available for Sale Investments herein for further information on our credit concentrations and credit exposures.
159
Market Risk Management
|
Market risk is defined as the risk of adverse impact due to systemic movements in one or more of the following market risk drivers: equity and commodity prices, residential and commercial real estate values, interest rates, credit spreads, foreign exchange, inflation, and their levels of volatility.
We are engaged in a variety of insurance, investment and other financial services businesses that generate market risk, directly and indirectly. We are exposed to market risks primarily within our insurance and capital markets activities, on both the asset and liability side of our balance sheet through on and off-balance sheet exposures. The chief risk officer within each business is responsible for creating a framework to properly identify these risks, then ensuring that they are appropriately measured, monitored and managed in accordance with the risk governance framework established by the Chief Market Risk Officer (CMRO).
The scope and magnitude of our market risk exposures is managed under a robust framework that contains documented risk-taking authorities, defined risk limits and minimum standards for managing market risk in a manner consistent with our Risk Appetite Statement. Our market risk management framework focuses on quantifying the financial repercussions of changes in these broad market observables, as opposed to from the idiosyncratic risks associated with individual assets that are addressed through our credit risk management function.
Risk Identification
|
Market risk focuses on quantifying the financial repercussions of changes in broad, external, predominantly market observable risks. Financial repercussions can include an adverse impact on results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and capital.
Each of the following systemic risks is considered a market risk:
Equity prices. We are exposed to changes in equity market prices affecting a variety of instruments. Changes in equity prices can affect the valuation of publicly-traded equity shares, investments in private equity, hedge funds and mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, and other equity-linked capital market instruments as well as equity-linked insurance products, including but not limited to index annuities, variable annuities, universal life insurance and variable universal life insurance.
Residential and commercial real estate values. Our investment portfolios are exposed to the risk of changing values in a variety of residential and commercial real estate investments. Changes in residential/commercial real estate prices can affect the valuation of residential/commercial mortgages, residential/commercial mortgage‑backed securities and other structured securities with underlying assets that include residential/commercial mortgages: trusts that include residential/commercial real estate and/or mortgages, residential mortgage insurance contracts and commercial real estate investments.
Interest rates. Interest rate risk can arise from a mismatch in the interest rate exposure of assets versus liabilities. Lower interest rates generally result in lower investment income and make certain of our product offerings less attractive to investors. Conversely, higher interest rates are typically beneficial for the opposite reasons. However, when rates rise quickly, there can be a temporary asymmetric U.S. GAAP accounting effect where the existing securities lose market value, which is largely reported in Other comprehensive income, and the offsetting decrease in the value of related liabilities may not be recognized. Changes in interest rates can affect the valuation of fixed maturity securities, financial liabilities, insurance contracts including but not limited to fixed rate annuities, variable annuities and derivative contracts.
Credit spreads. Credit spreads measure an instrument’s risk premium or yield relative to that of a comparable duration, default‑free instrument. Changes in credit spreads can affect the valuation of fixed maturity securities, including but not limited to corporate bonds, ABS, mortgage-backed securities, AIG-issued debt obligations, credit derivatives and derivative credit valuation adjustments. Much like higher interest rates, wider credit spreads with unchanged default losses mean more investment income in the long‑term. In the short term, quickly rising spreads will cause a loss in the value of existing fixed maturity securities, which is largely reported in Other comprehensive income. A precipitous rise in credit spreads may also signal a fundamental weakness in the credit‑worthiness of bond obligors, potentially resulting in default losses.
160
Foreign exchange (FX) rates. We are a globally diversified enterprise with significant income, assets and liabilities denominated in, and significant capital deployed in, a variety of currencies. Changes in FX rates can affect the valuation of a broad range of balance sheet and income statement items as well as the settlement of cash flows exchanged in specific transactions.
Commodity Prices. Changes in commodity prices (the value of commodities) can affect the valuation of publicly‑traded commodities, commodity indices and derivatives on commodities and commodity indices. We are exposed to commodity prices primarily through their impact on the prices and credit quality of commodity producers’ debt and equity securities in our investment portfolio.
Inflation. Changes in inflation can affect the valuation of fixed maturity securities, including AIG-issued debt obligations, derivatives and other contracts explicitly linked to inflation indices, and insurance contracts where the claims are linked to inflation either explicitly, via indexing, or implicitly, through medical costs or wage levels.
Risk Measurement
|
Our market risk measurement framework was developed with the main objective of communicating the range and scale of our market risk exposures. At the firm‑wide level market risk is measured in a manner that is consistent with AIG’s Risk Appetite Statement. This is designed to ensure that we remain within our stated risk tolerance levels and can determine how much additional market risk taking capacity is available within our framework. Our risk appetite is currently defined in terms of capital and liquidity levels. At the market risk level, the framework measures our overall exposure to each systemic market risk change on an economic basis.
In addition, we continue to use enhanced economic, U.S. GAAP accounting and statutory capital‑based risk measures at the market risk level, business‑unit level and firm‑wide levels. This process aims to ensure that we have a comprehensive view of the impact of our market risk exposures.
We use a number of approaches to measure our market risk exposure, including: |
Sensitivity analysis. Sensitivity analysis measures the impact from a unit change in a market risk input. Examples of such sensitivities include a one basis point increase in yield on fixed maturity securities, a one basis point increase in credit spreads of fixed maturity securities, and a one percent increase in prices of equity securities. Scenario analysis. Scenario analysis uses historical, hypothetical, or forward‑looking macroeconomic scenarios to assess and report exposures. Examples of hypothetical scenarios include a 100 basis point parallel shift in the yield curve or a 20 percent immediate and simultaneous decrease in world‑wide equity markets. Scenarios may also utilize a stochastic framework to arrive at a probability distribution of losses. Stress testing. Stress testing is a special form of scenario analysis in which the scenarios are designed to lead to a material adverse outcome. Examples of such scenarios include the stock market crash of October 1987 or the widening of yields or spreads of RMBS or CMBS during 2008. |

(a) At March 31, 2016, the analysis covered $289.3 billion of $303.9 billion interest-rate sensitive assets. Excluded were $7.1 billion of loans and $3.5 billion of investments in life settlements. In addition, $4.0 billion of assets across various asset categories were excluded due to modeling limitations. At December 31, 2015, the analysis covered $279.6 billion of $298.7 billion interest-rate sensitive assets. Excluded were $10.7 billion of loans and $3.6 billion of investments in life settlements. In addition, $4.8 billion of assets across various asset categories were excluded due to modeling limitations.
(b) Includes our investments in PICC Group and PICC P&C.
(c) The majority of the foreign currency exposure is reported on a one quarter lag.
Foreign currency-denominated net asset position reflects our consolidated non‑U.S. dollar assets less our consolidated non‑U.S dollar liabilities on a U.S. GAAP basis. We use a bottom-up approach in managing our foreign currency exchange rate exposures with the objective of protecting statutory capital at the regulated insurance entity level. We manage cash flow risk on our foreign currency-denominated debt issued by AIG Parent and use a variety of techniques to mitigate this risk, including but not limited to the execution of cross-currency swaps and the issuance of new foreign currency-denominated debt to replace equivalent maturing debt. At the AIG Parent level, we monitor our foreign currency exposures against single currency and aggregate currency portfolio limits. As a matter of general practice, we do not typically hedge our foreign currency exposures to net investments in subsidiaries.
162
Our foreign currency-denominated net asset position at March 31, 2016, decreased by $63 million compared to December 31, 2015. The decrease was mostly due to a $319 million decrease in our British pound position, partially offset by a $127 million increase in our euro position, primarily resulting from a net increase in reserves, and a $98 million increase in our Hong Kong dollar position, primarily resulting from the Non-Life Insurance Companies’ investment in PICC P&C.
For illustrative purposes, we modeled our sensitivities based on a 100 basis point increase in yield curves, a 20 percent decline in equities and alternative assets, and a 10 percent depreciation of all foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar. The estimated results presented in the table above should not be taken as a prediction, but only as a demonstration of the potential effects of such events.
|
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that our financial condition will be adversely affected by the inability or perceived inability to meet our short-term cash, collateral or other financial obligations. Failure to appropriately manage liquidity risk can result in insolvency, reduced operating flexibility, increased costs, reputational harm and regulatory action.
AIG and its legal entities seek to maintain sufficient liquidity during both the normal course of business and under defined liquidity stress scenarios to ensure that sufficient cash will be available to meet the obligations as they come due.
AIG liquidity risk tolerance levels are designed to allow it to meet its obligations over a twelve month horizon consistent with its risk appetite. We maintain target levels for required liquidity and/or minimum coverage ratios expected to ensure that our short-term financial obligations are met under varying market conditions. If we project that we will breach these tolerances, we will assess and determine appropriate liquidity management actions. However, the market conditions in effect at that time may not permit us to achieve an increase in liquidity sources or a reduction in liquidity requirements.
Risk Identification
|
The following sources of liquidity and funding risks could impact our ability to meet short-term financial obligations as they come due.
· Market/Monetization Risk: Assets cannot be readily transformed into cash due to unfavorable market conditions. Market liquidity risk may limit our ability to sell assets at reasonable values to meet liquidity needs or cause us to realize losses exceeding our expectations.
· Cash Flow Mismatch Risk: Discrete and cumulative cash flow mismatches or gaps over short-term horizons under both expected and adverse business conditions may create future liquidity shortfalls.
· Event Funding Risk: Additional funding may be required as the result of a trigger event and may result from a downgrade in credit ratings, a market event, or some other event that creates a funding obligation or limits existing funding options.
· Financing Risk: We may be unable to raise additional cash on a secured or unsecured basis due to unfavorable market conditions, AIG-specific issues, or any other issue that impedes access to additional funding.
Risk Measurement
|
Comprehensive cash flow projections under normal conditions are the primary component for identifying and measuring liquidity risk. We produce comprehensive liquidity projections over varying time horizons that incorporate all relevant liquidity sources and uses and include known and likely cash inflows and outflows. In addition, we perform stress testing by identifying liquidity stress scenarios and assessing the effects of these scenarios on our cash flow and liquidity.
163
We use a number of approaches to measure our liquidity risk exposure, including: |
Target Liquidity Range: Target Liquidity Range specifies the amount of assets required to be maintained in specific liquidity portfolios to meet obligations as they arise over a twelve month horizon under stressed liquidity conditions. Coverage Ratios: Coverage Ratios measure the adequacy of available liquidity sources, including the ability to monetize assets to meet the forecasted cash flows over a specified time horizon. The portfolio of potential assets to be monetized is selected based on our ability to convert those assets into cash under the assumed market conditions and within the specified time horizon. Cash Flow Forecasts: Cash Flow Forecasts measure the liquidity needed for a specific legal entity over a specified time horizon. Stress Testing: Coverage Ratios and Asset Ratios are re-measured under defined liquidity stress scenarios that will impact net cash flows, liquid assets and/or other funding sources. |
Relevant liquidity reporting is produced and reported regularly to AIG Parent and business unit risk committees. The frequency, content, and nature of reporting will vary for each business unit and legal entity, based on its complexity, risk profile, activities and size.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES |
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment.
The accounting policies that we believe are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions, which are critical accounting estimates, are related to the determination of: |
• income tax assets and liabilities, including recoverability of our net deferred tax asset and the predictability of future tax operating profitability of the character necessary to realize the net deferred tax asset; • liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses; • reinsurance assets; • valuation of future policy benefit liabilities and timing and extent of loss recognition; • valuation of liabilities for guaranteed benefit features of variable annuity products; • estimated gross profits to value deferred acquisition costs for investment-oriented products; • impairment charges, including other-than-temporary impairments on available for sale securities, impairments on other invested assets, including investments in life settlements, and goodwill impairment; • liability for legal contingencies; and • fair value measurements of certain financial assets and liabilities. |
These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, our consolidated financial condition, results of
164
operations and cash flows could be materially affected. For a complete discussion of our critical accounting estimates, you should read Part II, Item 7. MD&A — Critical Accounting Estimates in the 2015 Annual Report.
REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT |
Our operations around the world are subject to regulation by many different types of regulatory authorities, including insurance, securities, derivatives, investment advisory and thrift regulators in the United States and abroad.
Our insurance subsidiaries are subject to regulation and supervision by the states and jurisdictions in which they do business. The insurance and financial services industries generally have been subject to heightened regulatory scrutiny and supervision in recent years.
We provide products and services to certain employee benefit plans that are subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Internal Revenue Code). Plans subject to ERISA include pension and profit sharing plans and welfare plans, including health, life and disability plans. As a result, our activities are subject to the restrictions imposed by ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code, including the requirement under ERISA that fiduciaries must perform their duties solely in the interests of ERISA plan participants and beneficiaries, and that fiduciaries may not cause a covered plan to engage in certain prohibited transactions. ERISA also provides for civil and criminal penalties and enforcement.
On April 8, 2016, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) published its final fiduciary duty rule (the Final Rule), substantially expanding the definition of fiduciary investment advice. As a result, the circumstances under which financial services providers and financial advisors could be deemed a fiduciary under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code when providing investment advice with respect to ERISA plans or Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA) are greatly expanded. The Final Rule contains revisions to and adoptions of new prohibited transaction exemptions under ERISA, including revisions to a prohibited transaction exemption historically available in conjunction with the sale of fixed and variable annuity contracts to ERISA covered plans, commonly referred to as “84-24”, and the adoption of the “best interest contract exemption”. In response to public comments received on its proposed rule, the Final Rule provides for a longer implementation timeframe, clarifies how existing contracts may be grandfathered when the Final Rule becomes applicable, streamlines operational compliance including more limited disclosure obligations, provides guidance with respect to the sale of proprietary product, significantly limits the data collection requirements and broadens the scope of permissible group plan education. The initial compliance date of the Final Rule is April 10, 2017, with full compliance required by January 1, 2018. For additional information, see Item 2. MD&A — Executive Overview – Consumer Insurance Outlook and Strategic Initiatives – Market Conditions and Industry Trends – Retirement and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our regulatory status is also discussed in Part I, Item 1. Business – Regulation, Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors – Regulation and Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2015 Annual Report.

GLOSSARY |
Accident year The annual calendar accounting period in which loss events occurred, regardless of when the losses are actually reported, booked or paid.
Accident year combined ratio, as adjusted The combined ratio excluding catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums, prior year development, net of premium adjustments, and the impact of reserve discounting.
Accident year loss ratio, as adjusted The loss ratio excluding catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums, prior year development, net of premium adjustments, and the impact of reserve discounting.
Acquisition ratio Acquisition costs divided by net premiums earned. Acquisition costs are those costs incurred to acquire new and renewal insurance contracts and also include the amortization of VOBA and DAC. Acquisition costs vary with sales and include, but are not limited to, commissions, premium taxes, direct marketing costs, certain costs of personnel engaged in sales support activities such as underwriting.
Base Spread Net investment income excluding income from alternative investments and enhancements, less interest credited excluding amortization of sales inducement assets.
Base Yield Net investment income excluding income from alternative investments and enhancements, as a percentage of average base invested asset portfolio, which excludes alternative investments, other bond securities and certain other investments for which the fair value option has been elected.
Book Value Per Common Share, Excluding AOCI and Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI and DTA are non-GAAP measures and are used to show the amount of our net worth on a per-share basis. Book Value Per Common Share, Excluding AOCI is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, by Total common shares outstanding. Book Value Per Common Share, Excluding AOCI and DTA is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA, by Total common shares outstanding.
Casualty insurance Insurance that is primarily associated with the losses caused by injuries to third persons, i.e., not the insured, and the legal liability imposed on the insured as a result.
Combined ratio Sum of the loss ratio and the acquisition and general operating expense ratios.
CSA Credit Support Annex A legal document generally associated with an ISDA Master Agreement that provides for collateral postings which could vary depending on ratings and threshold levels.
CVA Credit Valuation Adjustment The CVA adjusts the valuation of derivatives to account for nonperformance risk of our counterparty with respect to all net derivative assets positions. Also, the CVA reflects the fair value movement in AIGFP's asset portfolio that is attributable to credit movements only, without the impact of other market factors such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Finally, the CVA also accounts for our own credit risk in the fair value measurement of all derivative net liability positions and liabilities where AIG has elected the fair value option, when appropriate.
DAC Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs Deferred costs that are incremental and directly related to the successful acquisition of new business or renewal of existing business.
DAC Related to Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) of Investments An adjustment to DAC for investment-oriented products, equal to the change in DAC amortization that would have been recorded if fixed maturity and equity securities available for sale had been sold at their stated aggregate fair value and the proceeds reinvested at current yields (also referred to as “shadow DAC”).
Deferred Gain on Retroactive Reinsurance Retroactive reinsurance is a reinsurance contract in which an assuming entity agrees to reimburse a ceding entity for liabilities incurred as a result of past insurable events. If the amount of premium paid by the ceding reinsurer is less than the related ceded loss reserves, the resulting gain is deferred and amortized over the settlement period of the reserves. Any related development on the ceded loss reserves recoverable under the contract would increase the deferred gain if unfavorable, or decrease the deferred gain if favorable.
Expense ratio Sum of acquisition expenses and general operating expenses, divided by net premiums earned.
First-Lien Priority over all other liens or claims on a property in the event of default on a mortgage.
166
General operating expense ratio General operating expenses divided by net premiums earned. General operating expenses are those costs that are generally attributed to the support infrastructure of the organization and include but are not limited to personnel costs, projects and bad debt expenses. General operating expenses exclude losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred, acquisition expenses, and investment expenses.
GIC/GIA Guaranteed Investment Contract/Guaranteed Investment Agreement A contract whereby the seller provides a guaranteed repayment of principal and a fixed or floating interest rate for a predetermined period of time.

IBNR Incurred But Not Reported Estimates of claims that have been incurred but not reported to us.
ISDA Master Agreement An agreement between two counterparties, which may have multiple derivative transactions with each other governed by such agreement, that generally provides for the net settlement of all or a specified group of these derivative transactions, as well as pledged collateral, through a single payment, in a single currency, in the event of a default on, or affecting any, one derivative transaction or a termination event affecting all, or a specified group of, derivative transactions.
LAE Loss Adjustment Expenses The expenses of settling claims, including legal and other fees and the portion of general expenses allocated to claim settlement costs.
Loss Ratio Losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred divided by net premiums earned. Loss adjustment expenses are directly attributed to settling and paying claims of insureds and include, but are not limited to, legal fees, adjuster’s fees, and claims department personnel costs.
Loss reserve development The increase or decrease in incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses as a result of the re-estimation of liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses at successive valuation dates for a given group of claims.
Loss reserves Liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses. The estimated ultimate cost of settling claims relating to insured events that have occurred on or before the balance sheet date, whether or not reported to the insurer at that date.
LTV Loan-to-Value Ratio Principal amount of loan amount divided by appraised value of collateral securing the loan.
Master netting agreement An agreement between two counterparties who have multiple derivative contracts with each other that provides for the net settlement of all contracts covered by such agreement, as well as pledged collateral, through a single payment, in a single currency, in the event of default on or upon termination of any one such contract.
Natural catastrophe losses are generally weather or seismic events having a net impact on AIG in excess of $10 million each. Catastrophes also include certain man-made events, such as terrorism and civil disorders that meet the $10 million threshold.
Net premiums written Represent the sales of an insurer, adjusted for reinsurance premiums assumed and ceded, during a given period. Net premiums earned are the revenue of an insurer for covering risk during a given period. Net premiums written are a measure of performance for a sales period, while Net premiums earned are a measure of performance for a coverage period.

Noncontrolling interest The portion of equity ownership in a consolidated subsidiary not attributable to the controlling parent company.
Policy fees An amount added to a policy premium, or deducted from a policy cash value or contract holder account, to reflect the cost of issuing a policy, establishing the required records, sending premium notices and other related expenses.
Pool A reinsurance arrangement whereby all of the underwriting results of the pool members are combined and then shared by each member in accordance with its pool participation percentage.

Item 3. / QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
Included in Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Enterprise Risk Management.
Item 4. / Controls and Procedures
|
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by AIG’s management, with the participation of AIG’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of AIG’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, AIG’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that AIG’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2016.
There has been no change in AIG’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2016, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, AIG’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
|
|
For a discussion of legal proceedings, see Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.
|
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the following risk factor as well as the other risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2015 Annual Report.
Our businesses are heavily regulated and changes in regulation may affect our operations, increase our insurance subsidiary capital requirements or reduce our profitability.
Our operations generally, and our insurance subsidiaries, in particular, are subject to extensive and potentially conflicting supervision and regulation by national authorities and by the various jurisdictions in which we do business. Supervision and regulation relate to numerous aspects of our business and financial condition. State and foreign regulators also periodically review and investigate our insurance businesses, including AIG-specific and industry-wide practices. The primary purpose of insurance regulation is the protection of our insurance contract holders, and not our investors. The extent of domestic regulation varies, but generally is governed by state statutes. These statutes delegate regulatory, supervisory and administrative authority to state insurance departments.
We strive to maintain all required licenses and approvals. However, our businesses may not fully comply with the wide variety of applicable laws and regulations. The relevant authority’s interpretation of the laws and regulations also may change from time to time. Regulatory authorities have relatively broad discretion to grant, renew or revoke licenses and approvals. If we do not have the required licenses and approvals or do not comply with applicable regulatory requirements, these authorities could preclude or temporarily suspend us from carrying on some or all of our activities or impose substantial fines. Further, insurance regulatory authorities have relatively broad discretion to issue orders of supervision, which permit them to supervise the business and operations of an insurance company.
In the U.S., the RBC formula is designed to measure the adequacy of an insurer’s statutory surplus in relation to the risks inherent in its business. Virtually every state has adopted, in substantial part, the RBC Model Law promulgated by the NAIC, which specifies the regulatory actions the insurance regulator may take if an insurer’s RBC calculations fall below specific thresholds. Those actions range from requiring an insurer to submit a plan describing how it would regain a specified RBC ratio to a mandatory regulatory takeover of the company. Regulators at the federal and international levels are also considering the imposition of additional group-wide capital requirements on certain insurance companies designated as systemically important, that may augment state-law RBC standards that apply at the legal entity level, and such capital calculations may be made on bases other than the statutory statements of our insurance subsidiaries. See “Our status as a nonbank systemically important financial institution, as well as the enactment of Dodd-Frank, will subject us to substantial additional federal regulation, which may materially and adversely affect our businesses, results of operations and cash flows” and “Actions by foreign governments and regulators could subject us to substantial additional regulation” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2015 Annual Report for additional information on increased capital requirements that may be imposed on us. We cannot predict the effect these initiatives may have on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
We provide products and services to certain employee benefit plans that are subject to restrictions imposed by ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code, including the requirement under ERISA that fiduciaries must perform their duties solely in the interests of ERISA plan participants and beneficiaries, and that fiduciaries may not cause a covered plan to engage in certain prohibited transactions. In April 2016, the DOL published a new fiduciary duty rule that has the effect of greatly expanding the circumstances under which financial services providers and financial advisors could be deemed a fiduciary under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code when providing investment advice with respect to ERISA plans or IRAs. We are currently reviewing this final rule to evaluate its full impact on our customers, distribution partners, financial advisors and us, while continuing to
171
prepare for compliance with the rule. Preparing to meet the requirements of this final rule will require us to invest significant resources to evaluate and make required changes to ensure compliance with the rule. These efforts could result in material changes being made to certain of our business practices, product designs and in our ability and the ability of our distribution partners and financial advisors to sell or service certain annuities and other investment products.
The degree of regulation and supervision in foreign jurisdictions varies. AIG subsidiaries operating in foreign jurisdictions must satisfy local regulatory requirements and it is possible that local licenses may require AIG Parent to meet certain conditions. Licenses issued by foreign authorities to our subsidiaries are subject to modification and revocation. Accordingly, our insurance subsidiaries could be prevented from conducting future business in certain of the jurisdictions where they currently operate. Adverse actions from any single country could adversely affect our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, depending on the magnitude of the event and our financial exposure at that time in that country.

(a) During this period, we also repurchased 10 million warrants to purchase shares of AIG Common Stock, at an average purchase price per warrant of $17.30, for an aggregate purchase price of $173 million.
(b) Reflects the purchase of 10 million warrants to purchase shares of AIG Common Stock, which reduced the dollar value of AIG Common Stock that may yet be repurchased under the repurchase authorization.
(c) On February 11, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized an additional increase to the repurchase authorization of AIG Common Stock of $5.0 billion. As of May 2, 2016, approximately $3.7 billion remained under our share repurchase authorization. Shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market, private purchases, through forward, derivative, accelerated repurchase or automatic repurchase transactions or otherwise (including through the purchase of warrants). Certain of our share repurchases have been and may from time to time be effected through Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plans. The timing of any future share repurchases will depend on market conditions, our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and other factors.
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, we repurchased approximately 63 million shares of AIG Common Stock under this authorization for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $3.5 billion. Pursuant to an Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1 plan, from April 1 to May 2, 2016, we have repurchased approximately $870 million of additional shares of AIG Common Stock. We also repurchased 10 million warrants to purchase shares of AIG Common Stock during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 for an aggregate purchase price of $173 million.
