(a)	Assumes conversion of contingently convertible bonds due to the adoption of EITF Issue No. 04-8 “Accounting Issues Related to Certain Features of Contingently Convertible Debt and the Effect on Diluted Earnings per Share.”
(b)	Certain shares arising from employee stock plans were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share where the exercise price of the options exceeded the average market price and would have been antidilutive. The number of shares excluded were 22 million and 8 million for the first three months of 2005 and 2004, respectively.

     Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure, an amendment to FASB Statement No. 123” (FAS 148), AIG adopted the “Prospective Method” of accounting for stock-based employee compensation effective January 1, 2003. FAS 148 also requires that AIG disclose the effect of stock-based compensation expense that would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all the awards vesting in the current period.

     The effect with respect to stock-based compensation expense that would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all the awards vesting in both the first three months of 2005 and 2004 was less than $0.005 per share.

     The quarterly dividend rate per common share, commencing with the dividend paid March 18, 2005 is $0.125.

4.	Benefits Provided by Starr International Company, Inc.

Starr International Company, Inc. (SICO) has provided a series of two-year Deferred Compensation Profit Participation Plans (SICO Plans) to certain AIG employees. The SICO Plans came into being in 1975 when the voting shareholders and Board of Directors of SICO, a private holding company whose principal asset is AIG common stock, decided that a portion of the capital value of SICO should be used to provide an incentive plan for the current and succeeding managements of all American International companies, including AIG.

     Participation in the SICO Plans by any person, and the amount of such participation, has been at the sole discretion of SICO’s Board of Directors. None of the costs of the various benefits provided under the SICO Plans has been paid by AIG, although AIG has recorded a charge to reported earnings for the deferred compensation amounts paid to AIG employees by SICO, with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital reflecting amounts deemed contributed by SICO. The SICO Plans provide that shares currently owned by SICO may be set aside by SICO for the benefit of the participant and distributed upon retirement. The SICO Board of Directors currently may permit an early payout of units under certain circumstances. Prior to payout, the participant is not entitled to vote, dispose of or receive dividends with respect to such shares, and shares are subject to forfeiture under certain conditions, including but not limited to the participant’s voluntary termination of employment with AIG prior to normal retirement age. In addition, SICO’s Board of Directors currently may elect to pay a participant cash in lieu of shares of AIG common stock. See also Note 6(f) herein.

     SICO has also provided certain personal benefits to AIG employees. The cost of such benefits, primarily attributable to personal use of corporate aircraft, has not been included in compensation expense.

     Compensation expense with respect to the SICO Plans aggregated $34 million and $14 million for the first three months of 2005 and 2004, respectively.

5.	Ownership and Transactions With Related Parties

(a) Ownership: The directors and officers of AIG, together with C.V. Starr & Co., Inc. (Starr), a private holding company, The Starr Foundation, and SICO, a private holding company, owned or otherwise controlled approximately 19 percent of the voting stock of AIG at March 31, 2005. Five directors of AIG served as directors of Starr and SICO as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. As of April 30, 2005, no director of AIG serving as an executive officer of AIG served as a director of Starr or SICO.

5.	Ownership and Transactions With Related Parties (continued)

     (b) Transactions with Related Parties: During the ordinary course of business, AIG and its subsidiaries pay commissions to Starr and its subsidiaries for the production and management of insurance business. There are no significant receivables from/payables to related parties at March 31, 2005.

6.	Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

In the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent liabilities are entered into by AIG and certain of its subsidiaries. In addition, AIG guarantees various obligations of certain subsidiaries.

     (a) AIG and certain of its subsidiaries become parties to derivative financial instruments with market risk resulting from both dealer and end user activities and to reduce currency, interest rate, equity and commodity exposures. These instruments are carried at their estimated fair values in the consolidated balance sheet. The vast majority of AIG’s derivative activity is transacted by AIG Financial Products Corp. and its subsidiaries (AIGFP). (See also Note 20 in AIG’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.)

     (b) Securities sold, but not yet purchased and spot commodities sold but not yet purchased represent obligations of Capital Markets operations to deliver specified securities and spot commodities at their contracted prices. Capital Markets records a liability to repurchase the securities and spot commodities in the market at prevailing prices.

     AIG has issued unconditional guarantees with respect to the prompt payment, when due, of all present and future payment obligations and liabilities of AIGFP arising from transactions entered into by AIGFP. Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 from Capital Markets operations were $738 million and $317 million, respectively.

     (c) At March 31, 2005, International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) had committed to purchase 322 new aircraft deliverable from 2005 through 2010 at an estimated aggregate purchase price of $19.5 billion and had options to purchase 6 new aircraft deliverable through 2007 at an estimated aggregate purchase price of $361 million. ILFC will be required to find customers for any aircraft acquired, and it must arrange financing for portions of the purchase price of such equipment.

     (d) AIG and its subsidiaries, in common with the insurance industry in general, are subject to litigation, including claims for punitive damages, in the normal course of their business. The recent trend of increasing jury awards and settlements makes it difficult to assess the ultimate outcome of such litigation.

     AIG continues to receive claims asserting injuries from toxic waste, hazardous substances, and other environmental pollutants and alleged damages to cover the cleanup costs of hazardous waste dump sites (hereinafter collectively referred to as environmental claims) and indemnity claims asserting injuries from asbestos. Estimation of asbestos and environmental claims loss reserves is a difficult process, as these claims, which emanate from policies written in 1984 and prior years, cannot be estimated by conventional reserving techniques. Asbestos and environmental claims development is affected by factors such as inconsistent court resolutions, the broadening of the intent of policies and scope of coverage and increasing number of new claims. AIG, together with other industry members, has and will continue to litigate the broadening judicial interpretation of policy coverage and the liability issues. If the courts continue in the future to expand the intent of the policies and the scope of the coverage, as they have in the past, additional liabilities would emerge for amounts in excess of reserves held. This emergence cannot now be reasonably estimated, but could have a material effect on AIG’s future operating results. The reserves carried for these claims at March 31, 2005 ($3.48 billion gross; $1.49 billion net) are believed to be adequate as these reserves are based on known facts and current law.

     (e) SAI Deferred Compensation Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of AIG, has established a deferred compensation plan for registered representatives of certain AIG subsidiaries, pursuant to which participants have the opportunity to invest deferred commissions and fees on a notional basis. The value of the deferred compensation fluctuates with the value of the deferred investment alternatives chosen. AIG has provided a full and unconditional guarantee of the obligations of SAI Deferred Compensation Holdings, Inc. to pay the deferred compensation under the plan.

     (f) On May 18, 2005, the AIG Board of Directors passed resolutions (Resolutions) pursuant to which AIG agrees, subject to certain conditions, to (i) make any payment that is not promptly paid with respect to the benefits accrued by current employees of AIG and its subsidiaries under the SICO Plans (as defined in Note 4) and (ii) make any payment to the extent not promptly paid by Starr with respect to amounts that become payable to current employees of AIG and its subsidiaries who are also stockholders of Starr after the giving of a notice of repurchase or redemption under Starr’s organizational documents. On June 27, 2005, AIG entered into definitive documentation of these agreements. AIG will accrue approximately $1 million for 2005 for these contingent liabilities.

6.	Commitments and Contingent Liabilities (continued)

     (g) 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). 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. In their complaint, plaintiffs 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 and have asserted, inter alia, that information concerning the excess policy was publicly disclosed months prior to the approval of the settlement. AIG and its subsidiaries further assert that the current claims are barred by the statute of limitations and that plaintiffs’ assertions that the statute was tolled cannot stand against the public disclosure of the excess coverage. Plaintiffs, 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 January 28, 2005, the Alabama trial court determined that one of the current actions may proceed as a class action on behalf of the 1999 classes that were allegedly defrauded by the settlement. AIG, its subsidiaries, and Caremark are seeking appellate relief from the Alabama Supreme Court. AIG cannot now estimate either the likelihood of its prevailing in these actions or the potential damages in the event liability is determined.

     (h) On December 30, 2004, an arbitration panel issued its ruling in connection with a 1998 workers compensation quota share reinsurance agreement under which Superior National Insurance Company, among others, was reinsured by The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (USLIFE), a subsidiary of American General Corporation. In its 2-1 ruling the arbitration panel refused to rescind the contract as requested by USLIFE. Instead, the panel reformed the contract to reduce USLIFE’s participation by ten percent. USLIFE disagrees with the ruling and is pursuing all appropriate legal remedies. USLIFE has certain reinsurance recoverables in connection with the contract and the arbitration ruling established a second phase or arbitration in which USLIFE will present its challenges to cessions to the contract.

     AIG recorded approximately a $178 million pre-tax charge in the fourth quarter of 2004 related to this matter and holds a reserve of approximately $349 million as of March 31, 2005.

     (i) On October 14, 2004, the Office of the Attorney General of the State of New York (NYAG) brought a lawsuit challenging certain insurance brokerage practices related to contingent commissions. Neither AIG nor any of its subsidiaries is a defendant in that action, although two employees of an AIG subsidiary pleaded guilty in connection with the NYAG’s investigation in October 2004 and two additional employees of the same subsidiary pleaded guilty in February 2005. AIG has cooperated, and will continue to cooperate, in the investigation. Regulators from several additional states have commenced investigations into the same matters, and AIG expects there will be additional investigations as well. Various parties, including insureds and shareholders, have also asserted putative class action and other claims against AIG or its subsidiaries alleging, among other things, violations of the antitrust and federal securities laws, and AIG expects that additional claims may be made.

     Various federal and state regulatory agencies are reviewing certain other transactions and practices of AIG and its subsidiaries in connection with industry-wide and other inquiries.

     In February 2005, AIG received subpoenas from the NYAG and the SEC relating to investigations into the use of non-traditional insurance products and certain assumed reinsurance transactions and AIG’s accounting for such transactions. The United States Department of Justice and various state regulators are also investigating related issues. AIG has cooperated, and will continue to cooperate, in producing documents and other information in response to the subpoenas.

     A number of lawsuits have been filed regarding the subject matter of the investigations of insurance brokerage practices and non-traditional insurance products, including derivative actions in New York state courts and civil actions under the federal securities laws and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) in the U.S. district court for the Southern District of New York. These actions are in the early pleadings stage.

     In addition, in late 2002, a shareholder derivative action was filed in Delaware Chancery Court alleging breaches of fiduciary duty of loyalty and care against AIG’s directors. AIG’s Board of Directors appointed a special committee of independent directors to review the complaint and respond to the lawsuit. The special committee has issued a report that concluded that it was not in the best interests of AIG or its shareholders to pursue the litigation and moved the Delaware Chancery Court to terminate the litigation. The Plaintiff filed

11

6.	Commitments and Contingent Liabilities (continued)

an amended complaint on May 17, 2005. The amendment includes additional claims of breach of fiduciary duty by current and former directors of AIG based on, among other things, AIG’s transactions with reinsurers (including reinsurers in which AIG has an ownership interest) and accounting for these transactions, AIG’s broker compensation practices, and AIG’s sale of finite insurance products.

     On May 26, 2005, the NYAG and the New York Superintendent of Insurance filed a civil complaint against AIG as well as its former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer M.R. Greenberg, and former Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer Howard Smith, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York. The complaint asserts claims under New York’s Martin Act and Insurance Law, among others, and makes allegations concerning certain of the transactions discussed more fully in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The complaint seeks disgorgement, injunctive relief, punitive damages and costs, among other things.

     AIG cannot at this time predict the outcome of the matters described above or estimate the potential costs related to these matters and, accordingly, no reserve is being established in AIG’s financial statements at this time. In the opinion of AIG management, AIG’s ultimate liability for the matters referred to above is not likely to have a material adverse effect on AIG’s consolidated financial condition, although it is possible that the effect would be material to AIG’s consolidated results of operations for an individual reporting period.

8.	Recent Accounting Standards

At the March 2004 meeting, the Emerging Issue Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus with respect to Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.” On September 30, 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF No. 03-1-1, Effective Date of Paragraphs 10-20 of EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments” delaying the effective date of this guidance until the FASB has resolved certain implementation issues with respect to this guidance. The disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 were previously adopted by AIG as of December 31, 2003 and reflected in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for that year for investments accounted for under FAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” For all other investments within the scope of this Issue, the disclosures are effective for the year ended December 31, 2004.

8.	Recent Accounting Standards (continued)

     At the September 2004 meeting, the EITF reached a consensus with respect to Issue No. 04-8, “Accounting Issues Related to Certain Features of Contingently Convertible Debt and the Effect on Diluted Earnings per Share.” This Issue addresses when the dilutive effect of contingently convertible debt (Co-Cos) with a market price trigger should be included in diluted earnings per share (EPS). The EITF concluded that these securities should be treated as convertible securities and included in a dilutive EPS calculation (if dilutive), regardless of whether the market price triggers (or other contingent features) have been met. Co-Cos are generally convertible into common shares of the issuer after the common stock has exceeded a predetermined threshold for a specific time period. The predetermined threshold is greater than the conversion price of the debt. The guidance is effective for the year ending December 31, 2004; AIG has applied the guidance retroactively and has restated previously reported EPS. The adoption of Issue No. 04-8 did not have a material effect on AIG’s diluted EPS.

     In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004) (FAS 123R), “Share-Based Payment.” FAS 123R replaces FASB Statement No. 123 (FAS 123), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” FAS 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. On January 1, 2003, AIG adopted the recognition provisions of FAS 123. In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) delayed the effective date for FAS 123R until the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. As a result, AIG expects to adopt the provisions of the revised FAS 123R in the first quarter of 2006. AIG is currently assessing the effect of FAS 123R and believes the effect will not be material to AIG’s financial condition or results of operations.

     In March 2005, FASB issued FSP FIN46R-5 “Implicit Variable Interests under FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FSP FIN46R-5) to address whether a reporting enterprise has an implicit variable interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) or potential VIE when specific conditions exist. Although implicit variable interests are mentioned in FIN46(R), the term is not defined and only one example is provided. This FSP FIN46R-5 offers additional guidance, stating that implicit variable interests are implied financial interests in an entity that change with changes in the fair value of the entity’s net assets exclusive of variable interests. An implicit variable interest acts the same as an explicit variable interest except it involves the absorbing and/or receiving of variability indirectly from the entity (rather than directly). The identification of an implicit variable interest is a matter of judgment that depends on the relevant facts and circumstances. FSP FIN46R-5 is effective for the second quarter of 2005, and AIG is currently assessing the effect, if any, of FSP FIN46R-5. AIG believes the effect of FSP FIN 46R-5 will not be material to AIG’s financial condition or results of operations.

Cautionary Statement Regarding
Forward-Looking Information

This Quarterly Report and other publicly available documents may include, and AIG’s officers and representatives may from time to time make, statements which may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are not historical facts but instead represent only AIG’s belief regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside AIG’s control. These statements may address, among other things, the status and potential future outcome of the current regulatory and civil proceedings against AIG and their potential effect on AIG’s businesses, financial position, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity, the effect of the credit rating downgrades on AIG’s businesses and competitive position, the unwinding and resolving of various relationships between AIG and Starr and SICO, AIG’s strategy for growth, product development, market position, financial results and reserves. It is possible that AIG’s actual results and financial condition may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results and financial condition indicated in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause AIG’s actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those in the specific forward-looking statements are discussed throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. AIG is not under any obligation (and expressly disclaims any such obligations) to update or alter any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, AIG presents its operations in the way it believes will be most meaningful. Statutory underwriting profit (loss) and combined ratios are presented in accordance with accounting principles prescribed by insurance regulatory authorities because these are standard measures of performance used in the insurance industry and thus allow more meaningful comparisons with AIG’s insurance competitors. AIG has also incorporated into this discussion a number of cross-references to additional information included throughout this Form 10-Q to assist readers seeking related information on a particular subject.

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

     AIG restated its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the quarters ended March 31, June 30 and September 30, 2004 and 2003 and the quarter ended December 31, 2003 in conjunction with filing its 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In connection with the preparation of AIG’s consolidated financial statements included in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, AIG’s current management initiated an internal review of AIG’s books and records, which was substantially expanded in mid-March 2005. Management believes that the scope and process of its internal review was sufficient to identify issues of a material nature that could affect AIG’s financial statements. For further discussion, see the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview of Operations and Business Results

AIG’s operations in 2005 are conducted by its subsidiaries principally through four operating segments: General Insurance, Life Insurance and Retirement Services, Financial Services and Asset Management. Through these segments, AIG provides insurance and investment products and services to both businesses and individuals in more than 130 countries and jurisdictions. This geographic, product and service diversification is one of AIG’s major strengths and sets it apart from its competitors. The importance of this diversification was especially evident in 2004, when record catastrophe losses in certain insurance operations were more than offset by profitability in those operations as well as in other segments and product lines. Although regional economic downturns or political upheaval could negatively affect parts of AIG’s operations, AIG believes that its diversification makes it unlikely that regional difficulties would have a material effect on its operating results, financial condition or liquidity.

     AIG’s subsidiaries serve commercial, institutional and individual customers through an extensive property-casualty and life insurance and retirement services network. In the United States, AIG companies are the largest underwriters of commercial and industrial insurance and one of the largest life insurance and retirement services operations as well. AIG’s Financial Services businesses include commercial aircraft and equipment leasing, capital markets operations and consumer finance, both in the United States and abroad. AIG also provides asset management services and offers guaranteed investment contracts, also known as funding agreements, (GICs) to institutions and individuals.

     AIG’s operating performance reflects implementation of various long-term strategies and defined goals in its various operating segments.

     A primary goal of AIG in managing its General Insurance operations is to achieve an underwriting profit. To achieve this goal, AIG must be disciplined in its risk selection and premiums must be adequate and terms and conditions appropriate to cover the risk accepted. AIG believes in strict control of expenses.

     Another central focus of AIG operations in current years is the development and expansion of new distribution channels. In 2004, AIG expanded its distribution channels in many Asian countries, which now include banks, credit card companies and television-media home shopping. In late 2003, AIG entered into an agreement with PICC Property and Casualty Company, Limited (PICC), which will enable the marketing of accident and health products throughout China through PICC’s branch networks and agency system. AIG participates in the underwriting results through a reinsurance agreement and also holds a 9.9 percent ownership interest in PICC. Other examples of new distribution channels used both domestically and overseas include banks, affinity groups, direct response and e-commerce.

     AIG patiently builds relationships in markets around the world where it sees long-term growth opportunities. For example, the fact that AIG has the only wholly-owned foreign life insurance operations in eight cities in China is the result of relationships developed over nearly 30 years. AIG’s more recent extensions of operations into India, Vietnam, Russia and other emerging markets reflect the same growth strategy. Moreover, AIG believes in investing in the economies and infrastructures of these countries and growing with them. When AIG companies enter a new jurisdiction, they typically offer both basic protection and savings products. As the economies evolve, AIG’s products evolve with them, to more complex and investment-oriented models.

     Growth for AIG may be generated both internally and through acquisitions which both fulfill strategic goals and offer adequate return on investment. In recent years, the acquisitions of AIG Star Life and AIG Edison Life have broadened AIG’s penetration of the Japanese market through new distribution channels and will result in operating efficiencies as they are integrated into AIG’s previously existing companies operating in Japan.

     AIG provides leadership on issues of concern to the global and local economies as well as the insurance and financial services industries. In recent years, efforts to reform the tort system and class action litigation procedures, legislation to deal with the asbestos problem and the renewal of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act have been key issues, while in prior years trade legislation and Superfund had been issues of concern.

The following table summarizes AIG’s revenues, income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change and net income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004:

(in millions)		2005				2004
Total revenues		$	27,112			$	23,375
Income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change			5,443				3,939
Net income		$	3,684			$	2,556

Consolidated Results

The 16.0 percent growth in revenues in the first three months of 2005 was primarily attributable to the growth in net premiums earned from global General Insurance operations as well as growth in both General Insurance and Life Insurance & Retirement Services net investment income and Life Insurance & Retirement Services GAAP premiums.

     AIG’s income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change increased 38.2 percent in the first three months of 2005 when compared to the same period of 2004. General Insurance, Life Insurance & Retirement Services, Financial Services, and Asset Management operating income gains were the primary factors for the increase over 2004 in both pretax income and net income.

The following table summarizes the operations of each principal segment for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. (See also Note 2 of Notes to Financial Statements.)

(f)	Represents income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change.

(g)	Represents other income (deductions) – net and other realized capital gains (losses).

General Insurance

AIG’s General Insurance operations provide property and casualty products and services throughout the world. The increase in General Insurance operating income in the first three months of 2005 compared to the same period of 2004 was primarily attributable to strong growth in operating income with respect to Domestic Brokerage Group’s and Foreign General’s operations, offset by a decrease in realized capital gains for the segment in the first three months of 2005 compared to the same period of 2004. DBG’s operating income included additional losses in the first three months of 2005 resulting from increased labor and material costs related to the 2004 Florida hurricanes.

Life Insurance & Retirement Services

AIG’s Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations provide insurance, financial and investment products throughout the world. Foreign operations provided approximately 60 percent of AIG’s Life Insurance & Retirement Services operating income for the first quarter of 2005.

     Life Insurance & Retirement Services operating income increased by 24.5 percent in the first three months of 2005 when compared to the same period of 2004. This increase

---

 

Financial Services

AIG’s Financial Services subsidiaries engage in diversified activities including aircraft and equipment leasing, capital market transactions, consumer finance and insurance premium financing.

     Financial Services operating income increased by 91.4 percent in the first three months of 2005 compared to the same period of 2004, primarily due to the fluctuation in earnings resulting from the accounting effect of FAS 133. Fluctuations in revenues and operating income from quarter to quarter are not unusual because of the transaction-oriented nature of Capital Markets operations and the effect of not qualifying for hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133 for hedges on securities available for sale and borrowings. Consumer Finance operations increased revenues and operating income, both domestically and internationally.

Asset Management

AIG’s Asset Management operations include institutional and retail asset management and broker dealer services and spread-based investment business from the sale of GICs. These products and services are offered to individuals and institutions, both domestically and overseas.

     Asset Management operating income increased 49.0 percent in the first three months of 2005 when compared to the same period of 2004 as a result of the upturn in worldwide financial markets and a strong global product portfolio.

Capital Resources

At March 31, 2005, AIG had total consolidated shareholders’ equity of $82.68 billion and total consolidated borrowings of $104.78 billion. At that date, $95.26 billion of such borrowings were either not guaranteed by AIG or were AIGFP’s matched borrowings under obligations of guaranteed investment agreements (GIAs), liabilities connected to trust preferred stock, or matched notes and bonds payable.

     During the period from January 1, 2005 through March 31, 2005, AIG purchased in the open market 2,477,100 shares of its common stock.

Liquidity

At March 31, 2005, AIG’s consolidated invested assets included $24.38 billion in cash and short-term investments. Consolidated net cash provided from operating activities in the first three months of 2005 amounted to $654 million. The $654 million in consolidated net cash provided by operating activities is net of approximately $8 billion used by AIGFP to purchase securities purchased under agreements to resell and to repurchase securities sold under agreements to repurchase in the ordinary course of AIGFP’s business. This operating activity was funded in part by proceeds from security sales under similar repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, but primarily by AIGFP’s financing activities, specifically proceeds from guaranteed investment agreements and notes, bonds, loans and mortgages payable. To date, approximately half of the $8 billion was subsequently invested in securities available for sale. AIG believes that its liquid assets, cash provided by operations and access to short term funding through commercial paper and bank credit facilities will enable it to meet any anticipated cash requirements.

Outlook

From March through June of 2005, the major rating agencies downgraded AIG’s ratings in a series of actions. Standard & Poor’s, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (S&P), lowered the long-term senior debt and counterparty ratings of AIG from ‘AAA’ to ‘AA’ and changed the rating outlook to negative. Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) lowered AIG’s long-term senior debt rating from ‘Aaa’ to ‘Aa2’ and changed the outlook to stable. Fitch Ratings (Fitch) downgraded the long-term senior debt ratings of AIG from ‘AAA’ to ‘AA’ and placed the ratings on Rating Watch Negative.

     The agencies also took rating actions on AIG’s insurance subsidiaries. S&P and Fitch lowered to ‘AA+’ the insurance financial strength ratings of most of AIG’s insurance companies. Moody’s lowered the insurance financial strength ratings generally to either ‘Aa1’ or ‘Aa2’. A.M. Best downgraded the financial strength ratings for most of AIG’s insurance subsidiaries from ‘A++’ to ‘A+’ and the issuer credit ratings from ‘aa+’ to ‘aa-’. Many of these companies’ ratings remain on a negative watch.

     In addition, S&P changed the outlook on ILFC’s ‘AA-’ long-term senior debt rating to negative. Moody’s affirmed ILFC’s long-term and short-term senior debt ratings (‘A1’/‘P-1’). Fitch downgraded ILFC’s long-term senior debt rating from ‘AA-’ to ‘A+’ and placed the rating on Rating Watch Negative and downgraded ILFC’s short-term debt rating from ‘F1+’ to ‘F1’. Fitch also placed the ‘A+’ long-term senior debt ratings of American General Finance Corporation and American General Finance, Inc. on Rating Watch Negative. S&P and Moody’s affirmed the long-term and short-term senior debt ratings of American General Finance Corporation at ‘A+’/‘A-1’ and ‘A1’/‘P-1’, respectively.

     These debt and financial strength ratings are current opinions of the rating agencies. As such, 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 AIG management’s request. This discussion of ratings is not a complete list of ratings of AIG and its subsidiaries.

     These ratings actions have affected and will continue to affect AIG’s business and results of operations in a number of ways.

---

 

•	Downgrades in AIG’s debt ratings will adversely affect AIG’s results of operations. AIG relies on external sources of financing to fund several of its operations. The cost and availability of unsecured financing are generally dependent on the issuer’s long-term and short-term debt ratings. The recent downgrades and any future downgrades in AIG’s debt ratings will increase AIG’s borrowing costs and therefore adversely affect AIG’s results of operations.
•	The downgrade in AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings will adversely affect AIGFP’s ability to compete for certain businesses. Credit ratings are very important to the ability of financial institutions to compete in the derivative and structured transaction marketplaces. Historically, AIG’s triple-A ratings provided AIGFP a competitive advantage. The downgrades will reduce this advantage and, for specialized financial transactions that generally are conducted only by triple-A rated financial institutions, counterparties may be unwilling to transact business with AIGFP except on a secured basis. This could require AIGFP to post more collateral to counterparties in the future. See below for a further discussion of the effect that posting collateral may have on AIG’s liquidity.
•	Although the financial strength ratings of AIG’s insurance company subsidiaries remain high compared to many of their competitors, the downgrades have reduced the previous ratings differential. The competitive advantage of the ratings to AIG’s insurance company subsidiaries may be lessened accordingly. The recent regulatory inquiries, internal investigations, and delay in the filing of the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as negative publicity, had caused independent producers and distributors of AIG’s domestic life and retirement services products to be more cautious in placing business with AIG subsidiaries. AIG is unable to predict the effect of these issues on AIG’s business, including any increase in associated surrender or replacement activity.
•	As a result of the downgrades of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings, AIG has been required to post approximately $1.16 billion of collateral with counterparties to municipal guaranteed investment agreements and financial derivatives transactions. In the event of a further downgrade, AIG will be required to post additional collateral. It is estimated that, as of the close of business on June 23, 2005, based on AIG’s outstanding municipal guaranteed investment agreements and financial derivatives transactions as of such date, a further downgrade of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings to ‘Aa3’ by Moody’s or ‘AA-’ by S&P would permit counterparties to call for approximately $2.10 billion of additional collateral. Further, additional downgrades could result in requirements for substantial additional collateral, which could have a material effect on how AIG manages its liquidity. The actual amount of additional collateral that AIG would be required to post to counterparties in the event of such downgrades depends on market conditions, the market value of the outstanding affected transactions and other factors prevailing at the time of the downgrade. The requirement to post additional collateral may increase if additional counterparties begin to require credit support from AIG through collateralization agreements. Additional obligations to post collateral will increase the demand on AIG’s liquidity.

     Despite industry price erosion in some classes of general insurance, AIG expects to continue to identify profitable opportunities and build attractive new General Insurance businesses as a result of AIG’s broad product line and extensive distribution networks. AIG expects total General Insurance premiums to increase for 2005 and expects cash flow for investments to remain strong. Thus, General Insurance net investment income is expected to rise in future quarters even in a continued low interest rate environment.

     In China, AIG has wholly-owned life insurance operations in eight cities. These operations should benefit from China’s rapid rate of economic growth and growing middle class, a segment that is a prime market for life insurance. AIG believes that it may also have opportunities in the future to grow by entering the group insurance business. However, in March 2005 it withdrew its application to serve the group insurance market until certain regulatory issues are resolved. Among the regulatory issues to be addressed is the response to AIG’s acknowledgment that certain of its Hong Kong based agents sold life insurance to customers on the Chinese mainland in contravention of applicable regulations.

     AIG Edison Life, acquired in August 2003, adds to the current agency force in Japan, and provides alternative distribution channels including banks, financial advisers, and corporate and government employee relationships. AIG Edison Life’s integration into AIG’s existing Japanese operations will provide future operating efficiencies. In January 2005, AIG Star Life entered into an agreement with the Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi, one of Japan’s largest banks, to market a multi-currency fixed annuity. Through ALICO, AIG Star Life and AIG Edison, AIG has developed a leadership position in the distribution of annuities through banks. AIG is also a leader in the direct marketing of insurance products through sponsors and in the broad market. AIG also expects continued growth in India, Korea and Vietnam.

     Domestically, AIG anticipates continued operating growth in 2005 as distribution channels are expanded and new products are introduced. The home service operation has not met business objectives, although its cash flow has been strong, and domestic group life/health was also weak in 2004. AIG expects restructuring efforts in these businesses to show positive results by early 2006. AIG American General’s current ratings remain equal to or higher than many of its principal competitors. Nevertheless, recent events have caused independent producers and distributors of AIG Amer-

     In the airline industry, changes in market conditions are not immediately apparent in operating results. Lease rates have firmed considerably, as a result of strong demand spurred by the recovering global commercial aviation market, especially in Asia. Sales have begun to increase, and AIG expects an increasing level of interest from a variety of purchasers. Therefore, AIG believes that the improvements in that market which commenced in 2003 will be gradually reflected in ILFC’s results in 2005. In the Capital Markets operations, the integration of AIG Trading Group Inc. and its subsidiaries into the operations of AIGFP created operating efficiencies that will continue to be realized and product synergies that should enhance 2005 results, although quarter to quarter variations are to be expected in this transaction-oriented business. AIG also expects increased contributions to Financial Services revenues and income from its consumer finance operations both domestically and overseas. However, the downgrades of AIG’s credit ratings may adversely affect funding costs for AIG and its subsidiaries and AIGFP’s ability to engage in derivative transactions and certain structured products. See “Certain Factors Affecting AIG’s Business — AIG’s Credit Ratings” in Item 1 of Part I of AIG’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     GICs, which are sold domestically and abroad to both institutions and individuals, are written on an opportunistic basis when market conditions are favorable. AIG expects to launch a matched investment program utilizing issuances of AIG debt securities, which will become AIG’s principal spread-based investment activity. However, in light of recent developments, the timing of the launch of this program is uncertain. Because AIG’s credit spreads in the capital markets have widened following the ratings declines, there may be a reduction in the earnings on new business in AIG’s spread based funding businesses.

     AIG has many promising growth initiatives underway around the world in its insurance and other operations. Cooperative agreements such as those with PICC and various banks in the U.S., Japan and Korea are expected to expand distribution networks for AIG’s products and provide models for future growth.

Critical Accounting Estimates

AIG considers its most critical accounting estimates those with respect to reserves for losses and loss expenses, future policy benefits for life and accident and health contracts, deferred policy acquisition costs, estimated gross profits for investment-oriented products, fair value determinations for certain Capital Markets assets and liabilities and other than temporary declines in value-investments. 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, AIG’s results of operations would be directly affected.

     Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, AIG’s critical accounting estimates are discussed in detail. The major categories for which assumptions are developed and used to establish each critical accounting estimate are highlighted below.

Reserves for Losses and Loss Expenses (General Insurance):

•	Loss trend factors: used to establish expected loss ratios for subsequent accident years based on premium rate adequacy and the projected loss ratio with respect to prior accident years.
•	Expected loss ratios for the latest accident year: for example, accident year 2004 for the year end 2004 loss reserve analysis. For low frequency, high severity classes such as excess casualty and directors and officers liability (D&O), expected loss ratios generally are utilized for at least the three most recent accident years.
•	Loss development factors: used to project the reported losses for each accident year to an ultimate amount.

Future Policy Benefits for Life and Accident and Health Contracts (Life Insurance & Retirement Services):

•	Interest rates: which vary by geographical region, year of issuance and products.
•	Mortality, morbidity and surrender rates: based upon actual experience by geographical region modified to allow for variation in policy form.

Estimated Gross Profits (Life Insurance & Retirement Services):

•	Estimated gross profits to be realized over the estimated duration of the contracts (investment-oriented products) affects the carrying value of deferred policy acquisition costs under FAS 97. Estimated gross profits include investment income and gains and losses on investments less required interest, actual mortality and other expenses.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs (Life Insurance & Retirement Services):

•	Recoverability based on current and future expected profitability, which is affected by interest rates, foreign exchange rates, mortality experience, and policy persistency.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs (General Insurance):

•	Recoverability and eligibility based upon the current terms and profitability of the underlying insurance contracts.

Fair Value Determinations of Certain Assets and Liabilities (Financial Services – Capital Markets):

•	Valuation models: utilizing factors, such as market liquidity and current interest, foreign exchange and volatility rates.

•

AIG attempts to secure reliable and independent current market price data, such as published exchange rates from external subscription services such as Bloomberg or Reuters or third-party broker quotes for use in this model. When such prices are not available, AIG uses an internal methodology, which includes interpolation from verifiable prices from trades occurring on dates nearest to the dates of the transactions.

Other Than Temporary Declines in Value – Investments:

•	Trading at a significant (25 percent or more) discount to par, amortized cost (if lower) or cost for an extended period of time (nine months or longer).
•	The occurrence of a discrete credit event resulting in the debtor default, seeking bankruptcy or insolvency protection or voluntary reorganization.
•	The possibility of non-realization of a full recovery on its investment, irrespective of the occurrence of one of the foregoing events.

Operating Review

General Insurance Operations

AIG’s General Insurance subsidiaries are multiple line companies writing substantially all lines of property and casualty insurance both domestically and abroad.

     Domestic General Insurance operations are comprised of the Domestic Brokerage Group (DBG), which includes the operations of The Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and Insurance Company (HSB), Transatlantic Holdings, Inc. (Transatlantic); Personal Lines, including 21st Century Insurance Group (21st Century); and United Guaranty Corporation (UGC).

     AIG’s primary domestic division is DBG. DBG’s business in the United States and Canada is conducted through its General Insurance subsidiaries including American Home, National Union, Lexington and certain other General Insurance company subsidiaries of AIG.

     DBG writes substantially all classes of business insurance, accepting such business mainly from insurance brokers. This provides DBG the opportunity to select specialized markets and retain underwriting control. Any licensed broker is able to submit business to DBG without the traditional agent-company contractual relationship, but such broker usually has no authority to commit DBG to accept a risk.

     In addition to writing substantially all classes of business insurance, including large commercial or industrial property insurance, excess liability, inland marine, environmental, workers compensation and excess and umbrella coverages, DBG offers many specialized forms of insurance such as aviation, accident and health, equipment breakdown, directors and officers liability (D&O), difference-in-conditions, kidnap-ransom, export credit and political risk, and various types of professional errors and omissions coverages. The AIG Risk Management operation provides insurance and risk management programs for large corporate customers. The AIG Risk Finance operation is a leading provider of customized structured insurance products. Also included in DBG are the operations of AIG Environmental, which focuses specifically on providing specialty products to clients with environmental exposures. Lexington writes surplus lines, those risks for which conventional insurance companies do not readily provide insurance coverage, either because of complexity or because the coverage does not lend itself to conventional contracts.

     Certain of the products of the DBG companies include funding components or have been structured in a manner such that little or no insurance risk is actually transferred. Funds received in connection with these products are recorded as deposits, included in other liabilities, rather than premiums and incurred losses.

     The AIG Worldsource Division introduces and coordinates AIG’s products and services to U.S.-based multinational clients and foreign corporations doing business in the U.S.

     Transatlantic subsidiaries offer reinsurance capacity on both a treaty and facultative basis both in the U.S. and abroad. Transatlantic structures programs for a full range of property and casualty products with an emphasis on specialty risks.

     AIG’s Personal Lines operations provide automobile insurance through AIG Direct, the mass marketing operation of AIG, Agency Auto Division and 21^st Century Insurance Group, as well as a broad range of coverages for high-net-worth individuals through the AIG Private Client Group.

     The principal business of the UGC subsidiaries is the writing of residential mortgage loan insurance, which is guaranty insurance on conventional first mortgage loans on single-family dwellings and condominiums. This type of insurance protects lenders against loss if borrowers default. UGC subsidiaries also write home equity and property improvement loan insurance on loans to finance residential property improvements, alterations and repairs and for other purposes not necessarily related to real estate.

     AIG’s Foreign General Insurance group accepts risks primarily underwritten through American International Underwriters (AIU), a marketing unit consisting of wholly owned agencies and insurance companies. The Foreign General Insurance group also includes business written by AIG’s foreign-based insurance subsidiaries. The Foreign General group uses various marketing methods and multiple distribution channels to write both business and personal lines insurance with certain refinements for local laws, customs and needs. AIU operates in Asia, the Pacific Rim, the United Kingdom, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America.

     As previously noted, AIG believes it should present and discuss its financial information in a manner most meaningful

     A critical discipline of a successful general insurance business is the objective to produce operating income from underwriting exclusive of investment-related income. When underwriting is not profitable, premiums are inadequate to pay for insured losses and underwriting related expenses. In these situations, the addition of general insurance related investment income and realized capital gains may, however, enable a general insurance business to produce operating income. For these reasons, AIG views underwriting profit to be critical in the overall evaluation of performance. Although in and of itself not a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) measurement, AIG believes that underwriting profit is a useful and meaningful disclosure. (See also the discussion under “Liquidity” herein.)

     Underwriting profit is measured in two ways: statutory underwriting profit and GAAP underwriting profit.

     Statutory underwriting profit is derived by reducing net premiums earned by net losses and loss expenses incurred and net expenses incurred. Statutory accounting generally requires immediate expense recognition and ignores the matching of revenues and expenses as required by GAAP. That is, for statutory purposes, expenses are recognized immediately, not over the same period that the revenues are earned.

     A basic premise of GAAP accounting is the recognition of expenses at the same time revenues are earned, the accounting principle of matching. Therefore, to convert underwriting results to a GAAP basis, acquisition expenses are deferred (deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC)) and amortized over the period the related net premiums written are earned. Accordingly, the statutory underwriting profit has been adjusted as a result of acquisition expenses being deferred as required by GAAP. DAC is reviewed for recoverability, and such review requires management judgment. (See also “Critical Accounting Estimates” herein.)

     AIG, along with most General Insurance companies, uses the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the combined ratio as measures of underwriting performance. The loss ratio is the sum of losses and loss expenses incurred divided by net premiums earned. The expense ratio is statutory underwriting expenses divided by net premiums written. The combined ratio is the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio. These ratios are relative measurements that describe, for every $100 of net premiums earned or written, the cost of losses and statutory expenses, respectively. The combined ratio presents the total cost per $100 of premium production. A combined ratio below 100 demonstrates underwriting profit; a combined ratio above 100 demonstrates underwriting loss.

     Net premiums written are initially deferred and earned based upon the terms of the underlying policies. The net unearned premium reserve constitutes deferred revenues which are generally earned ratably over the policy period. Thus, the net unearned premium reserve is not fully recognized in income as net premiums earned until the end of the policy period.

     The underwriting environment varies from country to country, as does the degree of litigation activity. Regulation, product type and competition have a direct effect on pricing and consequently on profitability as reflected in underwriting profit and statutory general insurance ratios.

General Insurance operating income is comprised of underwriting profit (loss), net investment income and realized capital gains and losses. These components, as well as net premiums written, net premiums earned and statutory ratios for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

General Insurance Results

     General Insurance operating income in the first three months of 2005 showed excellent results. The increase in General Insurance operating income in the first three months of 2005 was primarily attributable to strong profitable growth in Foreign General’s underwriting results and DBG’s and Foreign General’s net investment income partially offset by a decrease in realized capital gains relative to the same period of 2004. DBG’s underwriting results included additional losses incurred resulting from increased labor and material costs related to the 2004 Florida hurricanes.

     Like most AIG units, DBG benefited in the first three months of 2005 from a strong profit center focus and growing distribution channels. Overall, DBG’s net premiums written increased in the first three months of 2005 and 2004, as new business, generally higher renewal retention rates and a modest change in the mix of business towards classes (i.e. smaller accounts) that purchase less reinsurance more than offset modest rate decreases in some classes (i.e. property, D&O, healthcare, aviation). Domestic property-casualty premium rates are generally satisfactory at this time, although AIG has begun to see evidence in some classes of business, including property, D&O, energy and healthcare, where rates quoted by other carriers on selected accounts or segments do not meet AIG’s view of satisfactory. The loss ratio decreased from same period of 2004 principally as a result of the impact of prior year rate increases on premiums earned in the quarter, lower losses in the quarter in short tail classes of business, such as property and accident & health, offset by $118 million of additional losses incurred resulting from increased labor and material costs related to the 2004 Florida hurricanes.

     Transatlantic’s net premiums written and net premiums earned for the first quarter of 2005 decreased compared with the same period in 2004, principally as a result of decreased domestic business, partially offset by increased international business.

     Personal Lines net premiums written in the first three months of 2005 increased when compared to the same period of 2004 due to good growth in its core business units through expanded marketing efforts, increased agent/broker appointments, and enhanced product offerings. These gains were partially offset by reductions in its involuntary auto business due to aggressive re-underwriting of the previously acquired GE business. Underwriting income increased as a result of earned premium growth and favorable development of prior accident years.

     Mortgage Guaranty’s net premiums written increased in the first three months of 2005 when compared to the same period of 2004. Strong growth in junior liens, student loans and international business were offset by continued low persistency in the residential first lien business, caused by high refinance activity fueled by low mortgage interest rates.

     Foreign General Insurance had strong results in the first three months of 2005. Growth in net premiums written was achieved due to new business as well as new distribution channels partially offset by rate decreases in Australia and the United Kingdom commercial lines. The Far East region had excellent results. Personal accident business exhibited strong growth. In Japan, the purchase of the Royal & SunAlliance branch operations opened new distribution channels. Commercial lines in Europe and the Ascot syndicate continue to exhibit strong growth, as did Personal Lines operations in Brazil and Latin America. This growth translated to improved underwriting results.

AIG transacts business in most major foreign currencies. The following table summarizes the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the growth of General Insurance net premiums written for the first three months of 2005:

		2005
Growth in original currency			6.3%
Foreign exchange effect			1.3
Growth as reported in U.S. dollars			7.6%

     As previously noted, DBG’s results include $118 million of additional losses incurred in the first three months of 2005 resulting from increased labor and material costs related to the 2004 Florida hurricanes. Other effects of catastrophes incurred in the first three months of 2005 and 2004 were insignificant. The effect on losses caused by catastrophes can fluctuate widely from year to year, making comparisons of recurring type business more difficult. With respect to catastrophe losses, AIG believes that it has taken appropriate steps, such as careful exposure selection and obtaining reinsurance coverage, to reduce the effect of the magnitude of possible future losses. The occurrence of one or more catastrophic events of unanticipated frequency or severity, such

     General Insurance net investment income grew in the first three months of 2005 when compared to the same period of 2004. AIG is benefiting from strong cash flow, higher interest rates as well as increased partnership income. Additionally, net investment income was positively affected by the compounding of previously earned and reinvested net investment income. As AIG believes that net premiums written will continue to increase in 2005, AIG expects that cash flow for investment will continue to be strong, resulting in growth in net investment income in 2005.

     Realized capital gains and losses resulted from the ongoing investment management of the General Insurance portfolios within the overall objectives of the General Insurance operations. (See the discussion on “Valuation of Invested Assets” herein.)

     The contribution of General Insurance operating income to AIG’s consolidated income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change was 31.2 percent in the first three months of 2005 compared to 36.6 percent in the same period of 2004.

Reinsurance

AIG is a major purchaser of reinsurance for its General Insurance operations. AIG insures risks globally, and its reinsurance programs must be coordinated in order to provide AIG the level of reinsurance protection that AIG desires. Reinsurance is an important risk management tool to manage transaction and insurance line risk retention at prudent levels set by management. AIG also purchases reinsurance to mitigate its catastrophic exposure. AIG is cognizant of the need to exercise good judgment in the selection and approval of both domestic and foreign companies participating in its reinsurance programs because one or more catastrophe losses could negatively affect AIG’s reinsurers and result in an inability of AIG to collect reinsurance recoverables. AIG’s reinsurance department evaluates catastrophic events and assesses the probability of occurrence and magnitude of catastrophic events through the use of state-of-the-art industry recognized program models among other techniques. AIG supplements these models through continually monitoring the risk exposure of AIG’s worldwide General Insurance operations and adjusting such models accordingly. While reinsurance arrangements do not relieve AIG from its direct obligations to its insureds, an efficient and effective reinsurance program substantially limits AIG’s exposure to potentially significant losses.

     AIG’s consolidated general reinsurance assets amounted to $18.30 billion at March 31, 2005 and resulted from AIG’s reinsurance arrangements. Thus, a credit exposure existed at March 31, 2005 with respect to reinsurance recoverable to the extent that any reinsurer may not be able to reimburse AIG under the terms of these reinsurance arrangements. AIG manages its credit risk in its reinsurance relationships by transacting with reinsurers that it considers financially sound, and when necessary AIG holds substantial collateral in the form of funds, securities and/or irrevocable letters of credit. This collateral can be drawn on for amounts that remain unpaid beyond specified time periods on an individual reinsurer basis. At December 31, 2004, approximately 43 percent of the general reinsurance assets were from unauthorized reinsurers. In order to obtain statutory recognition, the majority of these balances were collateralized. The remaining 57 percent of the general reinsurance assets were from authorized reinsurers. The terms authorized and unauthorized pertain to regulatory categories, not creditworthiness. Approximately 90 percent of the balances with respect to authorized reinsurers are from reinsurers rated A (excellent) or better, as rated by A.M. Best, or A (strong) or better, as rated by Standard & Poor’s. Through March 31, 2005, these distribution percentages have not changed significantly. These ratings are measures of financial strength.

     AIG maintains a reserve for estimated unrecoverable reinsurance, but it has been largely successful in its previous recovery efforts. At December 31, 2004 AIG had allowances for unrecoverable reinsurance approximating $400 million. At that date, AIG had no significant reinsurance recoverables due from any individual reinsurer that was financially troubled (e.g., liquidated, insolvent, in receivership or otherwise subject to formal or informal regulatory restriction).

     AIG’s Reinsurance Security Department conducts ongoing detailed assessments of the reinsurance markets and current and potential reinsurers, both foreign and domestic. Such assessments include, but are not limited to, identifying if a reinsurer is appropriately licensed and has sufficient financial capacity, and evaluating the local economic environment in which a foreign reinsurer operates. This department also reviews the nature of the risks ceded and the requirements for credit risk mitigants. For example, in AIG’s treaty reinsurance contracts, AIG includes provisions that frequently require a reinsurer to post collateral when a referenced event occurs. Furthermore, AIG limits its unsecured exposure to reinsurers through the use of credit triggers, which include, but are not limited to, insurer financial strength rating downgrades, policyholder surplus declines at or below a certain predetermined level or a certain predetermined level of a reinsurance recoverable being reached. In addition, AIG’s Credit Risk Committee reviews the credit limits for and concentrations with any one reinsurer.

     AIG enters into intercompany reinsurance transactions, primarily through AIRCO, for its General Insurance and Life Insurance operations. AIG enters into these transactions as a sound and prudent business practice in order to maintain underwriting control and spread insurance risk among AIG’s various legal entities. These reinsurance agreements have

     At March 31, 2005, the consolidated general reinsurance assets of $18.30 billion include reinsurance recoverables for paid losses and loss expenses of $944 million, $14.24 billion with respect to the ceded reserve for losses and loss expenses, including ceded losses incurred but not reported (IBNR) (ceded reserves) and ceded reserve for unearned premiums of $3.12 billion. The ceded reserves represent the accumulation of estimates of ultimate ceded losses including provisions for ceded IBNR and loss expenses. The methods used to determine such estimates and to establish the resulting ceded reserves are continually reviewed and updated by management. Any adjustments thereto are reflected in income currently. It is AIG’s belief that the ceded reserves at March 31, 2005 were representative of the ultimate losses recoverable. In the future, as the ceded reserves continue to develop to ultimate amounts, the ultimate loss recoverable may be greater or less than the reserves currently ceded.

     At March 31, 2005, General Insurance net loss reserves increased $2.08 billion from the prior year end to $49.83 billion. The net loss reserves represent loss reserves reduced by reinsurance recoverables, net of an allowance for unrecoverable reinsurance and the discount for future investment income. The table below classifies the components of the General Insurance net loss reserves by business unit as of March 31, 2005.

(in millions)
DBG(a)			$34,383
Personal Lines(b)			2,314
Transatlantic			5,062
Mortgage Guaranty			353
Foreign General(c)			7,714
Total Net Loss Reserve			$49,826

(a)	DBG loss reserves include approximately $3.37 billion ($3.98 billion before discount) related to business written by DBG but ceded to AIRCO and reported in AIRCO’s statutory filings.
(b)	Personal Lines loss reserves include $700 million related to business ceded to DBG and reported in DBG’s statutory filings.
(c)	Foreign General loss reserves include approximately $1.95 billion related to business reported in DBG’s statutory filings.

     The DBG net loss reserve of $34.38 billion is comprised principally of the business of AIG subsidiaries participating in the American Home/National Union pool (11 companies) and the surplus lines pool (Lexington, Starr Excess Liability Insurance Company and Landmark Insurance Company).

     Beginning in 1998, DBG ceded a quota share percentage of its other liability occurrence and products liability occurrence business to AIRCO. The quota share percentage ceded was 40 percent in 1998, 65 percent in 1999, 75 percent in 2000 and 2001, 50 percent in 2002 and 2003, 40 percent in 2004 and 35 percent in 2005 and covered all business written in these years for these lines by participants in the American Home/National Union pool. In 1998 the cession reflected only the other liability occurrence business, but in 1999 and subsequent years included products liability occurrence. AIRCO’s loss reserves relating to these quota share cessions from DBG are recorded on a discounted basis. As of March 31, 2005, AIRCO carried a discount of approximately $610 million applicable to the $3.98 billion in undiscounted reserves it assumed from the American Home/National Union pool via this quota share cession. AIRCO also carries approximately $375 million in net loss reserves relating to Foreign General insurance business. These reserves are carried on an undiscounted basis.

     Beginning in 1997, the Personal Lines division ceded a percentage of all business written by the companies participating in the personal lines pool to the American Home/National Union pool. As noted above, the total reserves carried by participants in the American Home/National Union pool relating to this cession amounted to $700 million as of March 31, 2005.

     The companies participating in the American Home/National Union pool have maintained a participation in the business written by AIU for decades. As of March 31, 2005, these AIU reserves carried by participants in the American Home/National Union pool amounted to approximately

     At March 31, 2005, AIG’s overall General Insurance net loss reserves reflects a loss reserve discount of $1.56 billion, including tabular and non-tabular calculations. The tabular workers compensation discount is calculated using a 3.5 percent interest rate and the 1979-81 Decennial Mortality Table. The non-tabular workers compensation discount is calculated separately for companies domiciled in New York and Pennsylvania, and follows the statutory regulations for each state. For New York companies, the discount is based on a five percent interest rate and the companies’ own payout patterns. For Pennsylvania companies, the statute has specified discount factors for accident years 2001 and prior, which are based on a six percent interest rate and an industry payout pattern. For accident years 2002 and subsequent, the discount is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury securities ranging from one to twenty years and the company’s own payout pattern, with the future expected payment for each year using the interest rate associated with the corresponding Treasury security yield for that time period. The discount is comprised of the following: $401 million – tabular discount for workers compensation in DBG; $544 million – non-tabular discount for workers compensation in DBG; and, $610 million – non-tabular discount for other liability occurrence and products liability occurrence in AIRCO. The total undiscounted workers compensation loss reserve carried by DBG is approximately $6.9 billion as of March 31, 2005. The other liability occurrence and products liability occurrence business in AIRCO that is assumed from DBG is discounted using a 5.5 percent interest rate and the DBG payout pattern for this business. The undiscounted reserves assumed by AIRCO from DBG totaled approximately $3.98 billion at March 31, 2005.

     The methods used to determine loss reserve estimates and to establish the resulting reserves are continually reviewed and updated by management. Any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in operating income currently. It is management’s belief that the General Insurance net loss reserves are adequate to cover all General Insurance net losses and loss expenses as at March 31, 2005. While AIG annually reviews the adequacy of established loss reserves, there can be no assurance that AIG’s ultimate loss reserves will not adversely develop and materially exceed AIG’s loss reserves as of March 31, 2005. In the opinion of management, such adverse development and resulting increase in reserves is not likely to have a material adverse effect on AIG’s consolidated financial position, although it could have a material adverse effect on AIG’s consolidated results of operations for an individual reporting period.

     AIG has announced that it will commission a comprehensive independent actuarial review of the loss reserves of its principal property-casualty insurance operations. The review is expected to be completed before AIG reports its full year 2005 financial results.

The table below presents the reconciliation of net loss reserves for the first three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 as follows:

(in millions)			2005				2004
Net reserve for losses and loss expenses at beginning of year			$	47,747			$	36,738
Foreign exchange effect				28				222
Losses and loss expenses incurred:
	Current year			7,032				6,340
	Prior years*			240				368
Losses and loss expenses incurred				7,272				6,708
Losses and loss expenses paid				5,221				4,645
Net reserve for losses and loss expenses at end of period			$	49,826			$	39,023

*

Includes accretion of discount of $97 million in the first three months of 2005 and $94 million in the first three months of 2004. Additionally, includes $55 million in the first three months of 2005 and $45 million in the first three months of 2004 for the general reinsurance operations of Transatlantic, and $118 million of additional losses incurred in the first three months of 2005 resulting from increased labor and material costs related to the 2004 Florida hurricanes.

     In a very broad sense, the General Insurance loss reserves can be categorized into two distinct groups. One group is long-tail casualty lines of business which include excess and umbrella liability, D&O, professional liability, medical malpractice, workers compensation, general liability, products liability, and related classes. The other group is short-tail lines of business consisting principally of property lines, personal lines and certain classes of casualty lines.

     For operations writing short-tail coverages, such as property coverages, the process of recording quarterly loss reserve changes is geared toward maintaining an appropriate reserve level for the outstanding exposure, rather than determining an expected loss ratio for current business. For example, the IBNR reserve required for a class of property business might be expected to approximate 20 percent of the latest year’s earned premiums, and this level of reserve would be maintained regardless of the loss ratio emerging in the current quarter. The 20 percent factor is adjusted to reflect changes in rate levels, loss reporting patterns, known exposures to large unreported losses, or other factors affecting the particular class of business.

     Estimation of ultimate net losses and loss expenses (net losses) for long-tail casualty lines of business is a complex process and depends on a number of factors, including the line and volume of the business involved. Experience in the more recent accident years of long-tail casualty lines shows limited statistical credibility in reported net losses because a relatively low proportion of net losses would be reported claims and expenses and an even smaller proportion would be net losses paid. Therefore, IBNR would constitute a relatively high proportion of net losses.

     AIG’s carried net long-tail loss reserves are tested using loss trend factors that AIG considers most appropriate for each class of business. A variety of actuarial methods and assumptions is normally employed to estimate net losses for long-tail casualty lines. These methods ordinarily involve the use of loss trend factors intended to reflect the estimated annual growth in loss costs from one accident year to the next. For the majority of long-tail casualty lines, net loss trend factors approximated five percent. Loss trend factors reflect many items including changes in claims handling, exposure and policy forms; current and future estimates of monetary inflation and social inflation and increases in litigation and awards. These factors are periodically reviewed and subsequently adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect emerging trends which are based upon past loss experience. Thus, many factors are implicitly considered in estimating the year to year growth in loss costs recognized.

     A number of actuarial assumptions are made in the review of reserves for each line of business. For longer tail lines of business, actuarial assumptions generally are made with respect to the following:

•	Loss trend factors which are used to establish expected loss ratios for subsequent accident years based on the projected loss ratio for prior accident years.
•	Expected loss ratios for the latest accident year (i.e., accident year 2004 for the year end 2004 loss reserve analysis) and, in some cases, for accident years prior to the latest accident year. The expected loss ratio generally reflects the projected loss ratio from prior accident years, adjusted for the loss trend (see above) and the effect of rate changes and other quantifiable factors. For low-frequency, high-severity classes such as excess casualty and D&O, expected loss ratios generally are utilized for at least the three most recent accident years.
•	Loss development factors which are used to project the reported losses for each accident year to an ultimate basis.

     AIG records quarterly changes in loss reserves for each of its many General Insurance profit centers. The overall change in AIG’s loss reserves is based on the sum of these profit center level changes. For most profit centers which write longer tail classes of casualty coverage, the process of recording quarterly loss reserve changes involves determining the estimated current loss ratio for each class of coverage. This loss ratio is multiplied by the current quarter’s net earned premium for that class of coverage to determine the quarter’s total estimated net incurred loss and loss expense. The change in loss reserves for the quarter for each class is thus the difference between the net incurred loss and loss expense, estimated as described above, and the net paid losses and loss expenses in the quarter.

     The process of determining the current loss ratio for each class or business segment begins in the profit centers in the latter part of the previous year. The loss ratios determined for each profit center are based on a variety of factors. These include, but are not limited to, the following considerations: prior accident year and policy year loss ratios; actual and anticipated rate changes; actual and anticipated changes in coverage, reinsurance, or mix of business; actual and anticipated changes in external factors affecting results, such as trends in loss costs or in the legal and claims environment. Each profit center’s loss ratio for the following year is subject to review by the profit center’s management, by actuarial and accounting staffs, and ultimately by senior management. At the close of each quarter, the assumptions underlying the loss ratios are reviewed to determine if the loss ratios based thereon remain appropriate. This process includes a review of the actual claims experience in the quarter, actual rate changes achieved, actual changes in coverage, reinsurance or mix of business, and changes in certain other factors that may affect the loss ratio. When this review suggests that the initially determined loss ratio is no longer appropriate, the loss ratio for current business would be changed to reflect the revised assumptions.

     A comprehensive annual loss reserve review is conducted in the fourth quarter of each year for each AIG General Insurance subsidiary. These reviews are conducted in full detail for each class or line of business for each subsidiary, and thus consist of literally hundreds of individual analyses. The purpose of these reviews is to confirm the reasonableness of the reserves carried by each of the individual subsidiaries, and thereby of AIG’s overall carried reserves. The reserve analysis for each business class is performed by the actuarial personnel who are most familiar with that class of business. In completing these detailed actuarial reserve analyses, the actuaries are required to make numerous assumptions, including for example the selection of loss development factors and loss cost trend factors. They are also required to determine and select the most appropriate actuarial method(s) to employ for each business class. Additionally, they must determine the appropriate segmentation of data or segments from which the adequacy of the reserves can be most accurately tested. In the course of these detailed reserve reviews for each business segment, a point estimate of the loss reserve is generally determined. The sum of these point estimates for each of the individual business classes for each subsidiary provides an overall actuarial point estimate of the loss reserve for that subsidiary. The overall actuarial point estimate is compared to the sub-

     With respect to the 2004 year-end actuarial loss reserve analysis for DBG, the actuaries continued to utilize the modified assumptions which gave additional weight to actual loss development from the more recent years, as identified during the 2002 and 2003 analysis, with appropriate adjustments to account for the additional year of loss experience which emerged in 2004. Although the actuaries continued to use actuarial assumptions that rely on expected loss ratios based on the results of prior accident years, the expected loss ratio assumptions used continue to give far greater weight to the more recent accident year experience than was the case in the prior year-end assumptions. For example, for the excess casualty lead umbrella class of business, 100 percent weight was given to the experience of accident years 1998-2001, with no weight given to the more favorable experience of accident years prior to 1998.

     AIG’s annual loss reserve review does not calculate a range of loss reserve estimates. Because a large portion of the loss reserves from AIG’s General Insurance business relates to long-tail casualty lines driven by severity rather than frequency of claims, such as excess casualty and D&O, developing a range around loss reserve estimates would not be meaningful. An estimate is calculated which AIG’s actuaries believe provides a reasonable estimate of the required reserve. This amount is then evaluated against actual carried reserves.

     There is potential for significant variation in the development of loss reserves, particularly for long-tail casualty classes of business such as excess casualty, when actual costs differ from the assumptions used to test the reserves. Such assumptions include those made for loss trend factors and loss development factors, as described earlier. Set forth below is a sensitivity analysis demonstrating the estimated effect on the loss reserve position of alternative loss trend or loss development factor assumptions as compared to those actually used to test the carried reserves.

     For the excess casualty class of business the assumed loss cost trend was five percent. Thus, in establishing the expected loss ratios for accident years 2002 through 2004, the loss costs from accident years 1998 through 2001 were trended by this five percent factor per annum. A five percent change in the assumed loss cost trend from each accident year to the next would cause approximately a $600 million change (either positively or negatively) to the net loss and loss expense reserve for this business. For the D&O and related management liability classes of business the assumed loss cost trend was four percent. Thus, in establishing the expected loss ratios for accident years 2002 through 2004, the loss costs from accident years 1997 through 2001 were trended by this four percent factor per annum. A five percent change in this assumed loss cost trend would cause approximately a $500 million change (either positively or negatively) to the net loss and loss expense reserve for such business. For healthcare liability business, including hospitals and other healthcare exposures, a five percent change in the assumed loss cost trend would cause approximately a $150 million change (either positively or negatively) to the loss and loss expense reserve for this business. Actual loss cost trends in the early 1990’s were negative for these classes, whereas in the late 1990’s loss costs trends ran well into the double digits for each of these three classes. The sharp increase in loss costs in the late 1990’s was thus much greater than the five percent changes cited above, and caused significant increases in the overall loss reserve needs for these classes. While changes in the loss cost trend assumptions can have a significant effect on the reserve needs for other smaller classes of liability business, the potential effect of these changes on AIG’s overall carried reserves would be much less than for the classes noted above.

     For the excess casualty class, if future loss development factors differed by five percent from those utilized in the year-end 2004 loss reserve review, there would be approximately a $450 million change (either positively or negatively) to the overall AIG loss reserve position. The comparable effect on the D&O and related management liability classes would be approximately $200 million (either positively or negatively) if future loss development factors differed by five percent from those utilized in the year-end 2004 loss reserve review. For healthcare liability classes, the effect would be approximately $125 million (either positively or negatively). For workers compensation reserves, the effect of a five percent deviation from the loss development factors utilized in the year-end 2004 reserve reviews would be approximately $750 million (either positively or negatively). Because loss development factors for this class have shown less volatility than higher severity classes such as excess casualty, however, actual changes in loss development factors are expected to be less than five percent. There is some degree of volatility in loss development patterns for other longer tail liability classes as well. However, the potential effect on AIG’s reserves would be much less than for the classes cited above.

     The calculations of the effect of the five percent change in loss development factors are made by selecting the stage of accident year development where it is believed reasonable for such a deviation to occur. For example, for workers compen-

     AIG management believes that using a five percent change in the assumptions for loss cost trends and loss development factors provides a reasonable benchmark for a sensitivity analysis of the reserves of AIG’s most significant lines of general insurance business. For excess casualty business, both the loss cost trend and the loss development factor assumptions are critical. Generally, actual historical loss development factors are used to project future loss development. However, there can be no assurance that future loss development patterns will be the same as in the past. Moreover, as excess casualty is a long-tail class of business, any deviation in loss cost trends or in loss development factors might not be discernible for an extended period of time subsequent to the recording of the initial loss reserve estimates for any accident year. Thus, there is the potential for the reserves with respect to a number of accident years to be significantly affected by changes in the loss cost trends or loss development factors that were initially relied upon in setting the reserves. These changes in loss trends or loss development factors could be attributable to changes in inflation or in the judicial environment, or in other social or economic phenomena affecting claims. For example, during the lengthy periods during which losses develop for excess casualty, actual changes in loss costs from one accident year to the next have ranged from negative values to double-digit amounts. Thus, there is the potential for significant volatility in loss costs for excess casualty and, although five percent is considered a reasonable benchmark for sensitivity analysis for this business, there is the potential for variations far greater than this amount (either positively or negatively). Likewise, in the judgment of AIG’s actuaries, five percent is considered an appropriate benchmark for sensitivity analysis with respect to the loss development factor assumptions used to test the reserves. It should be noted that the loss cost trend factor for excess casualty was reduced to five percent in the year-end 2004 loss reserve review compared to the 7.5 percent loss trend factor used in the 2003 review for excess casualty. This reduction was made by AIG’s actuaries in response to a significant favorable loss trend that had emerged from accident year 2000 to 2001. This favorable trend appears to be continuing in accident years 2002 and 2003, although these accident years are still immature.

     For D&O and related management liability classes of business, the loss cost trend assumption is critical. The loss development factor assumption is important but less critical than for excess casualty. As this coverage is written on a claims-made basis, claims for a given accident year are all reported within that year. Actual changes in loss costs from one accident year to the next in the 1990s ranged from double digit negative values for several accident years in the early 1990s to nearly 50 percent per year for the period from accident year 1996 to accident year 1999. Thus, there is the potential for extreme volatility in loss costs for this business and, although five percent is considered a reasonable benchmark for sensitivity analysis, there is the potential for variations far greater than this amount (either positively or negatively). Five percent is also considered an appropriate benchmark for sensitivity analysis with respect to the loss development factor assumptions used to test the reserves for these classes. However, as noted above, the effect of such a deviation is less than that of a similar deviation in loss cost trends. It should be noted that the loss cost trend factor for D&O and related management liability classes was reduced to four percent in the year end 2004 loss reserve reviews compared to six percent in the 2003 review. This reduction was made by AIG’s actuaries in response to a relative stabilization in loss costs from accident year 1999 to 2001 following the period of sharp increases in loss costs through 1999. The stabilization in loss costs appears to be continuing in accident years 2002 and 2003, although these accident years are still immature.

     For healthcare liability classes, both the loss cost trend and the loss development factor assumptions are critical. The nature of the potential volatility would be analogous to that described above for the excess casualty business. However, AIG’s volume of business in the healthcare classes is much smaller than for excess casualty, hence the potential effect on AIG’s overall reserves is smaller for these classes than for excess casualty. AIG’s healthcare liability business includes both primary and excess exposures.

     For workers compensation, the loss development factor assumptions are important. Generally, AIG’s actual historical workers compensation loss development would be expected to provide a reasonably accurate predictor of future loss development. A five percent sensitivity indicator for workers compensation would thus be considered to be toward the high end of potential deviations for this class of business. AIG’s workers compensation reserves include a small portion relating to excess workers compensation coverage. The analysis applicable to excess casualty would apply to these reserves. However, the volume of such business is de minimis compared to the volume of excess casualty. The loss cost trend assumption for workers compensation is not believed to be material with respect to AIG’s loss reserves other than for that portion representing excess workers compensation. This is primarily because AIG’s actuaries are generally able to use loss development projections for all but the most recent accident year’s reserves, so there is limited need to rely on loss cost trend assumptions for workers compensation business.

     For casualty business other than the classes noted above, there is generally some potential for deviation in both the loss cost trend and loss development factor selections. However,

     The comprehensive annual loss reserve review process results in an accumulation of point estimates for AIG’s General Insurance business. The loss reserve carried at year-end 2004 for AIG’s General Insurance business was approximately equal to the aggregate reserve indicated by the actuarial point estimates. This represents a relative improvement of approximately two percent from AIG’s position as of December 31, 2003. This comparison excludes the reserves relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, which are determined using different methodologies, as described below.

Asbestos and Environmental Reserves

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. The insurance industry as a whole is engaged in extensive litigation over these coverage and liability issues and is thus confronted with a continuing uncertainty in its efforts to quantify these exposures.

     AIG continues to receive claims asserting injuries from toxic waste, hazardous substances, and other environmental pollutants and alleged damages to cover the cleanup costs of hazardous waste dump sites, referred to collectively as environmental claims, and indemnity claims asserting injuries from asbestos.

     The vast majority of these asbestos and environmental claims emanate from policies written in 1984 and prior years. Commencing in 1985, standard policies contained an absolute exclusion for pollution related damage and an absolute asbestos exclusion was also implemented. However, AIG currently underwrites environmental impairment liability insurance on a claims-made basis and has excluded such claims from the analysis herein.

     The majority of AIG’s exposures for asbestos and environmental claims are excess casualty coverages, not primary coverages. Thus, the litigation costs are treated in the same manner as indemnity reserves. That is, litigation expenses are included within the limits of the liability AIG incurs. Individual significant claim liabilities, where future litigation costs are reasonably determinable, are established on a case basis.

     Estimation of asbestos and environmental claims loss reserves is a subjective process and reserves for asbestos and environmental claims cannot be estimated using conventional reserving techniques such as those that rely on historical accident year loss development factors.

     Significant factors which affect the trends that influence the asbestos and environmental claims estimation process are the inconsistent court resolutions and judicial interpretations which broaden the intent of the policies and scope of coverage. The current case law can be characterized as still evolving, and there is little likelihood that any firm direction will develop in the near future. Additionally, the exposures for cleanup costs of hazardous waste dump sites involve issues such as allocation of responsibility among potentially responsible parties and the government’s refusal to release parties.

     Due to this uncertainty, it is not possible to determine the future development of asbestos and environmental claims with the same degree of reliability as with other types of claims. Such future development will be affected by the extent to which courts continue to expand the intent of the policies and the scope of the coverage, as they have in the past, as well as by the changes in Superfund and waste dump site coverage issues. If the asbestos and environmental reserves develop deficiently, such deficiency would have an adverse effect on AIG’s future results of operations. AIG does not discount asbestos and environmental reserves.

     With respect to known asbestos and environmental claims, AIG established over a decade ago specialized toxic tort and environmental claims units, which investigate and adjust all such asbestos and environmental claims. These units evaluate these asbestos and environmental claims utilizing a claim-by-claim approach that involves a detailed review of individual policy terms and exposures. Because each policyholder presents different liability and coverage issues, AIG generally evaluates exposure on a policy-by-policy basis, considering a variety of factors such as known facts, current law, jurisdiction, policy language and other factors that are unique to each policy. Quantitative techniques have to be supplemented by subjective considerations including management judgment. Each claim is reviewed at least semi-annually utilizing the aforementioned approach and adjusted as necessary to reflect the current information.

     In both the specialized and dedicated asbestos and environmental claims units, AIG actively manages and pursues early settlement with respect to these claims in an attempt to mitigate its exposure to the unpredictable development of these claims. AIG attempts to mitigate its known long-tail environmental exposures by utilizing a combination of proactive claim-handling techniques including policy buybacks, complete environmental releases, compromise settlements, and, where indicated, litigation.

     With respect to asbestos claims handling, AIG’s specialized claims staff operates to mitigate losses through proactive handling, supervision and resolution of asbestos cases. Thus, while AIG has resolved all claims with respect to miners and major manufacturers (Tier One), its claims staff continues to operate under the same proactive philosophy to resolve claims involving accounts with products containing asbestos

34

     In order to evaluate the overall reasonableness of the asbestos and environmental reserves established using the claim-by-claim approach as described above, AIG uses two methods, the market share method and the frequency/severity or report year method.

     The market share method produces indicated asbestos and environmental reserve needs by applying the appropriate AIG market share to estimated potential industry ultimate loss and loss expenses based on the latest estimates from A.M. Best and Tillinghast. The market share method is a series of tests. Six estimates of potential industry ultimate losses for asbestos and environmental claims are tested. Additionally, a second series of tests are performed, using estimated industry unpaid losses, instead of industry ultimate losses. The market share tests are also performed using estimates of AIG’s market share. The reason AIG’s market share is an estimate is that there are assumptions as to which years and classes of business the asbestos and environmental exposure applies. For example, commercial multiple peril business is included in the market share calculation in some, but not all, of the scenarios.

     AIG’s estimate of the carried net asbestos and environmental reserves were approximately $50 million greater than the mean indication of the outcomes of market share testing. However, the market share method does not give weight to AIG’s actual asbestos and environmental loss experience.

     The frequency/severity or report year approach, is also a series of tests which are performed separately for asbestos and for environmental exposures. For asbestos, these tests project the expected losses to be reported over the next twenty years, i.e. from 2005 through 2024, based on the actual losses reported through 2004 and the expected future loss emergence for these claims. Three scenarios are tested, with a series of assumptions ranging from more optimistic to more conservative. In the first scenario, all carried asbestos case reserves, as determined above using the claim-by-claim approach, are assumed to be within ten percent of their ultimate settlement value.

     The second scenario relies on an actuarial projection of report year developments for asbestos claims reported from 1993 to the present to estimate case reserve adequacy as of year-end 2004. The third scenario also relies on an actuarial projection of report year claims for asbestos, but reflects claims reported from 1989 to the present to estimate case reserve adequacy as of year-end 2004. As of year-end 2004, the results of the second and third scenarios varied significantly. In the second scenario, case reserves were indicated to be at slightly less than 60 percent of the ultimate settlement value at year-end 2004, whereas in the third scenario they were indicated to be at less than 25 percent of ultimate settlement value.

     Based on the results of the prior report years for each of the three scenarios described above, the report year approach then projects forward to the year 2024 the expected future report year losses, based on AIG’s estimate of reasonable loss trend assumptions.

     These calculations are performed on losses gross of reinsurance. The IBNR (including a provision for development of reported claims) on a net basis is based on applying a factor reflecting the expected ratio of net losses to gross losses for future loss emergence.

     For environmental claims, an analogous series of frequency/severity tests are produced. In general, the case reserve adequacy assumptions are narrower, as case reserve adequacy is indicated within approximately 25 percent of adequacy in all scenarios tested. Environmental claims from future report years (i.e. IBNR) are projected out ten years, i.e. through the year 2014.

     As of year-end 2004, the range of outcomes from the scenarios tested for environmental ranged from $20 million below AIG’s carried reserve to approximately $200 million greater than AIG’s carried reserve. The range of outcomes for asbestos was greater. The indication from the first scenario, as described above, was approximately $140 million below AIG’s carried reserve. The indication from the second scenario was approximately $10 million below AIG’s carried reserves. The indication from the third scenario was approximately $650 million greater than AIG’s carried reserve.

     At year-end 2004, AIG considered a number of factors and recent experience to determine the appropriate reserve that should be carried for these claims, including the following:

     1. Actual calendar experience for past ten years, five years, three years, and one year. AIG experienced consistent adverse development on its carried asbestos and environmental reserves over the years. The net carried reserves from ten years ago ran off $1.45 billion deficient; from five years ago $430 million deficient; from three years ago $350 million deficient; and from one year ago $150 million deficient. Thus the reserves consistently produced adverse development per year, with no evidence of recent improvement. These figures are prior to the year-end 2004 reserve increase.

     On a gross of reinsurance basis, the adverse developments were analogous, with approximately $450 million in the latest year and $4.8 billion over the past ten years.

     2. Input from claims officers on latest year events. DBG’s claims officers observed an increasing trend toward adverse claims experience in the layers underlying its excess

35

     3. Deterioration in Report Year claims experience. As noted above, the Scenario Two and Scenario Three indications for case reserve adequacy in AIG’s 2004 year-end actuarial report indicated an increasing deficiency in carried case reserves for asbestos. This was the result of continued adverse development on prior year case reserves and suggests future loss development will be at higher levels than previously indicated. As a result, the Scenario Three indicated reserve deficiency increased from approximately $480 million in the 2003 year-end reserve review to a deficiency of approximately $650 million in the year-end 2004 review. Furthermore, the year-end 2004 review utilized data evaluated as of June 30, 2004. An update to this data was produced (for all large claims) with claims evaluated as of March 31, 2005, i.e., an additional nine months of data beyond the year-end 2004 reserve study. This update showed that report year losses in the nine months from June 2004 to March 2005 produced additional adverse loss development. In fact, more loss development was observed during these nine months than for the twelve months from the June 2003 through June 2004 period. Thus, both the latest year’s data used in the year-end 2004 actuarial study and the nine months of additional data subsequent to that study indicated the experience was deteriorating beyond what was expected at year-end 2003.

     4. Survival Ratios. AIG’s year-end 2004 survival ratio for asbestos was 5.7 and 5.2 on a gross and a net basis, respectively, prior to the year-end 2004 reserve increase. AIG’s year-end 2004 survival ratio for environmental was 4.8 and 3.8 on a gross and a net basis, respectively, prior to the year-end 2004 reserve increase. These survival ratios indicated AIG’s carried reserves were sufficient to fund four to five years of payments for these claims, assuming payment levels remain stable. Based on the latest two years of actual paid losses, AIG did not expect its losses to decline as quickly as these ratios imply.

     5. Industry experience. The industry has experienced a significant wave of adverse development for asbestos since 2001, with little, if any, signs of recent improvement. Furthermore, the litigation environment has become increasingly adverse.

     6. Reinsurance Recoverable. Although AIG has been successful in collecting the vast majority of its reinsurance on asbestos and environmental claims, the greater the future losses and the longer the exposure persists, the greater the likelihood of increased problems in collecting reinsurance. Thus, the continued adverse developments and lack of any signs that loss experience is beginning to diminish increases the risk of uncollectible reinsurance.

     After considering all of these factors, particularly its recent experience, AIG determined that its carried reserve for asbestos and environmental claims would be best estimated by scenario three described above. This resulted in a $650 million increase in net asbestos reserves, and a $200 million increase in net environmental reserves. The corresponding increases in gross reserves were $1.2 billion for asbestos and $250 million for environmental reserves.

Significant uncertainty remains as to AIG’s ultimate liability relating to asbestos and environmental claims. This uncertainty is due to several factors including:

•	The long latency period between asbestos exposure and disease manifestation and the resulting potential for involvement of multiple policy periods for individual claims;
•	The increase in the volume of claims by currently unimpaired plaintiffs;
•	Claims filed under the non-aggregate premises or operations section of general liability policies;
•	The number of insureds seeking bankruptcy protection and the effect of prepackaged bankruptcies;
•	Diverging legal interpretations;
•	With respect to environmental claims, the difficulty in estimating the allocation of remediation cost among various parties; and
•	The possibility of federal legislation that would address the asbestos and environmental issue.

Claims at end of period				7,685				8,044				15,729				7,386				8,913				16,299

     The table below presents AIG’s survival ratios for asbestos and environmental claims at March 31, 2005 and 2004. The survival ratio is derived by dividing the current carried loss reserve by the average payments for the three most recent calendar years for these claims. Therefore, the survival ratio is a simplistic measure estimating the number of years it would be before the current ending loss reserves for these claims would be paid off using recent year average payments. Many factors, such as aggressive settlement procedures, mix of business and level of coverage provided, have a significant effect on the amount of asbestos and environmental reserves and payments and the resultant survival ratio. Thus, caution should be exercised in attempting to determine reserve adequacy for these claims based simply on this survival ratio.

AIG’s survival ratios for asbestos and environmental claims, separately and combined were based upon a three-year average payment. These ratios at March 31, 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

			Gross				Net
2005
Survival ratios:
	Asbestos			9.8				12.7
	Environmental			6.3				6.7
	Combined			8.5				10.1

Survival ratios:
	Asbestos			4.4				4.4
	Environmental			4.9				4.0

Life Insurance & Retirement Services Results

The increase in operating income in the first three months of 2005 when compared to the same period of 2004 was caused in part by strong growth overseas, and realized capital gains in 2005 rather than the realized capital losses in 2004.

     Life Insurance & Retirement Services GAAP premiums grew in the first three months of 2005 when compared with the same period in 2004. AIG’s Domestic Life operations had continued strong growth in term and universal life sales and good performance from the independent distribution channels. Payout annuities also had strong growth. The domestic group business is below AIG’s growth standards, largely because several accounts where pricing was unacceptable were not renewed and loss experience was higher than anticipated. Restructuring efforts in this business are focused on new product introductions, cross selling and other growth strategies. AGLA, the home service business, is diversifying product offerings, enhancing the capabilities and quality of the sales force and broadening the markets served beyond those historically serviced in an effort to accelerate growth.

     Domestic Retirement Services businesses faced a challenging environment in the first three months of 2005, as deposits declined approximately nine percent compared to the same period in 2004 and operating income for the retirement services businesses remained relatively flat when compared with the first three months of 2004. The sales environment for the first three months of 2005 for individual variable annuities was unfavorably affected by the combination of weak equity market performance and the cumulative effect of more restrictive regulatory compliance procedures imposed by the broker-dealer and bank distributors in recent periods.

     AIG’s domestic fixed annuity business has been affected by a significant flattening of the treasury yield curve over the past several quarters, which has affected sales as yields on competing products, such as bank CDs, approach those available on AIG’s fixed annuities. There are some indications that negative press coverage of AIG has adversely affected surrenders and withdrawals of fixed annuities. In addition, surrenders have increased from prior year levels as annuities sold in 2000 can now be surrendered without charges, and as a result of the competitive interest rate environment. The combination of reduced sales and increased surrenders and withdrawals resulted in net flows 21 percent lower than prior year net flows. AIG expects that net flows will remain lower than in prior years as long as an environment of poor equity market performance and the yield curve remains flat.

     The majority of the growth in Life Insurance & Retirement Services GAAP premiums in Foreign Life operations was attributable to the life insurance, personal accident & health, and group products lines of business. Globally, AIG’s deep and diverse distribution, which includes bancassurance, worksite marketing, direct marketing and strong agency organizations, provides a powerful platform for growth. This growth was most significant in Southeast Asia where AIG maintains significant market share established by its strong agency force, and in Japan, where AIG has benefited from a flight to quality and development of multiple distribution channels. In light of AIG’s recent credit rating downgrades, it is unclear whether this flight to quality will continue to benefit AIG. Also in Japan, AIG Edison Life’s back office operations are being integrated successfully into AIG’s life operations. AIG Star Life is growing first year premiums as a result of new product introductions and an expanded agency force, and is benefiting from more successful conservation of in-force business. The Foreign Retirement Services business continues its strong growth based upon its success in Japan and Korea by expanding its extensive distribution network and leveraging AIG’s product expertise. AIG is introducing annuity products in new markets. In January 2005, AIG Star Life entered into an agreement with the Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi, one of Japan’s largest banks, to market a multi-currency fixed annuity.

     Foreign Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations produced 78.8 percent and 78.4 percent of Life Insurance & Retirement Services GAAP premiums in the first three months of 2005 and 2004, respectively.

AIG transacts business in most major foreign currencies. The following table summarizes the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the growth of Life Insurance & Retirement Services GAAP premiums.

		2005
Growth in original currency			6.1	%
Foreign exchange effect			3.4
Growth as reported in U.S. dollars			9.5	%

     Under U.S. GAAP, deposits and certain other consideration received under deferred annuity (variable and fixed) and universal life contracts are not included as GAAP premiums.

     The growth in net investment income in the first three months of 2005 was attributable to both foreign and domestic invested new cash flow for investment. Additionally, net investment income was positively affected by the compounding of previously earned and reinvested net investment income.

     Life Insurance & Retirement Services investment portfolios are managed within the overall objectives of the Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations. AIG subsidiaries invest in certain limited liability companies that invest in synthetic fuel production facilities as a means of generating income tax credits. Net investment income includes operating

     The contribution of Life Insurance & Retirement Services operating income to AIG’s consolidated income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change amounted to 40.8 percent in the first three months of 2005, compared to 45.3 percent in the same period of 2004.

Underwriting and Investment Risk

The risks associated with life and accident and health products are underwriting risk and investment risk. The risk associated with the financial and investment contract products is primarily investment risk.

     Underwriting risk represents the exposure to loss resulting from the actual policy experience adversely emerging in comparison to the assumptions made in the product pricing associated with mortality, morbidity, termination and expenses. The emergence of significant adverse experience would require an adjustment to DAC and benefit reserves that could have a substantial effect on AIG’s results of operations.

     AIG’s Foreign Life companies generally limit their maximum underwriting exposure on life insurance of a single life to approximately $1.7 million of coverage and AIG’s Domestic Life companies generally limit their maximum underwriting exposure on life insurance of a single life to $5 million of coverage by using yearly renewable term reinsurance. (See also the discussion under “Liquidity” herein.)

     AIRCO acts primarily as an internal reinsurance company for AIG’s foreign life operations. This facilitates insurance risk management (retention, volatility, concentrations) and capital planning locally (branch and subsidiary). It also allows AIG to pool its insurance risks and purchase reinsurance more efficiently at a consolidated level and manage global counterparty risk and relationships.

     AIG’s domestic Life Insurance and Retirement Services operations utilize internal and third-party reinsurance relationships to manage insurance risks and to facilitate capital management strategies. Pools of highly-rated third-party reinsurers are utilized to manage net amounts at risk in excess of retention limits. AIG’s domestic life insurance companies also cede excess, non-economic reserves carried on a statutory-basis only on certain term and universal life insurance policies and certain fixed annuities to AIG Life of Bermuda Ltd., a wholly owned Bermuda reinsurer.

     AIG generally obtains letters of credit in order to obtain statutory recognition of these intercompany reinsurance transactions. For this purpose, AIG entered into a $2.5 billion syndicated letter of credit facility in December 2004. Letters of credit totaling $2.17 billion was outstanding as of December 31, 2004, and all $2.5 billion was outstanding as of March 31, 2005. The letter of credit facility has a ten-year term, but the facility can be reduced or terminated by the lenders beginning after seven years.

     The investment risk represents the exposure to loss resulting from the cash flows from the invested assets, primarily long-term fixed rate investments, being less than the cash flows required to meet the obligations of the expected policy and contract liabilities and the necessary return on investments. (See also the discussion under “Liquidity” herein.)

     To minimize its exposure to investment risk, AIG tests the cash flows from the invested assets and the policy and contract liabilities using various interest rate scenarios to assess whether there is a liquidity excess or deficit. If a necessary rebalancing of the invested assets to the policy and contract claims does not occur, a demand could be placed upon liquidity. (See also the discussion under “Liquidity” herein.)

     AIG actively manages the asset-liability relationship in its foreign operations, as it has been doing throughout AIG’s history, even though certain territories lack qualified long-term investments or certain local regulatory authorities may impose investment restrictions. For example, in Japan and several Southeast Asian countries, the duration of the investments is often for a shorter period than the effective maturity of the related policy liabilities. Therefore, there is a risk that the reinvestment of the proceeds at the maturity of the initial investments may be at a yield below that of the interest required for the accretion of the policy liabilities. Additionally, there exists a future investment risk associated with certain policies currently in force which will have premium receipts in the future. That is, the investment of these future premium receipts may be at a yield below that required to meet future policy liabilities.

     To maintain an adequate yield to match the interest necessary to support future policy liabilities, management focus is required to reinvest the proceeds of the maturing securities and to invest the future premium receipts while continuing to maintain satisfactory investment quality.

     Certain foreign jurisdictions, including Japan, have limited long-dated bond markets and AIG may use alternative investments, including equities, real estate and foreign currency denominated fixed income instruments to extend the effective duration and increase the yield of the investment portfolio to more closely match the requirements of the policyholder liabilities and DAC recoverability, particularly in Taiwan, where Nan Shan has approximately 30 percent of invested assets in foreign currencies. Using foreign currency denominated investments to support policyholder liabilities could increase the risk to and volatility of cash flows and income. AIG actively manages this risk through regular monitoring and selected hedging strategies.

     AIG actively manages the asset-liability relationship in its domestic operations. This relationship is more easily man-

     AIG uses asset-liability matching as a management tool worldwide to determine the composition of the invested assets and appropriate marketing strategies. As a part of these strategies, AIG may determine that it is economically advantageous to be temporarily in an unmatched position due to anticipated interest rate or other economic changes. In addition, the absence of long-dated fixed income instruments in certain markets may preclude a matched asset-liability position in those markets.

     A number of guaranteed benefits are offered on certain variable life and variable annuity products.

     DAC for life insurance and retirement services products arises from the deferral of those costs that vary with, and are directly related to, the acquisition of new or renewal business. Policy acquisition costs for life insurance products are generally deferred and amortized over the premium paying period of the policy. Policy acquisition costs which relate to universal life and investment-type products, including variable and fixed annuities (investment-oriented products) are deferred and amortized, with interest, as appropriate, in relation to the historical and future incidence of estimated gross profits to be realized over the estimated lives of the contracts. With respect to universal life and investment-oriented products, AIG’s policy, as appropriate, has been to adjust amortization assumptions for DAC when estimates of current or future gross profits to be realized from these contracts are revised. With respect to variable annuities sold domestically (representing the vast majority of AIG’s variable annuity business), the assumption for the long-term annual net growth rate of the equity markets used in the determination of DAC amortization is approximately ten percent. A methodology referred to as “reversion to the mean” is used to maintain this long-term net growth rate assumption, while giving consideration to short-term variations in equity markets. Estimated gross profits include investment income and gains and losses on investments less interest required as well as other charges in the contract less actual mortality and expenses. Current experience and changes in the expected future gross profits are analyzed to determine the effect on the amortization of DAC. The estimation of projected gross profits requires significant management judgment. The elements with respect to the current and projected gross profits are reviewed and analyzed quarterly and are adjusted appropriately.

     AIG’s variable annuity earnings will be affected by changes in market returns because separate account revenues, primarily composed of mortality and expense charges and asset management fees, are a function of asset values.

     DAC for both insurance-oriented and investment-oriented products as well as retirement services products are subject to review for recoverability, which involve estimating the future profitability of current business. This review also involves significant management judgment. If the actual emergence of future profitability were to be substantially different than that estimated, AIG’s results of operations could be significantly affected in future periods.

Insurance and Asset Management Invested Assets

AIG’s investment strategy is to invest primarily in high quality securities while maintaining diversification to avoid significant exposure to issuer, industry and/or country concentrations. With respect to General Insurance, AIG’s strategy is to invest in longer duration fixed maturity investments to maximize the yields at the date of purchase. With respect to Life Insurance & Retirement Services, AIG’s strategy is to produce cash flows required to meet maturing insurance liabilities. (See also the discussion under “Operating Review: Life Insurance & Retirement Services Operations” herein.) AIG invests in equities for various reasons, including diversifying its overall exposure to interest rate risk. Available for sale bonds and equity securities are subject to declines in fair value. Such declines in fair value are presented in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments, net of taxes as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Generally, insurance regulations restrict the types of assets in which an insurance company may invest. When permitted by regulatory authorities and when deemed necessary to protect insurance assets, including invested assets, from adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, AIG and its insurance subsidiaries may enter into derivative transactions as end users. (See also the discussion under “Derivatives” herein.)

     In certain jurisdictions, significant regulatory and/or foreign governmental barriers exist which may not permit the immediate free flow of funds between insurance subsidiaries or from the insurance subsidiaries to AIG parent.

Credit Quality

At March 31, 2005, approximately 62 percent of the fixed maturities investments were domestic securities. Approximately 33 percent of such domestic securities were rated AAA by one or more of the principal rating agencies. Approximately six percent were below investment grade or not rated.

     A significant portion of the foreign fixed income portfolio is rated by Moody’s, S&P or similar foreign services. Similar credit quality rating services are not available in all overseas locations. AIG reviews the credit quality of the foreign portfolio nonrated fixed income investments, including mortgages. At March 31, 2005, approximately 20 percent of the foreign fixed income investments were either rated AAA or, on the basis of AIG’s internal analysis, were equivalent from a credit standpoint to securities so rated. Approximately four percent were below investment grade or not rated at that date. A large portion of the foreign fixed income portfolio are sovereign fixed maturity securities supporting the policy liabilities in the country of issuance.

     Any fixed income security may be subject to downgrade for a variety of reasons subsequent to any balance sheet date.

Valuation of Invested Assets

AIG has the ability to hold any fixed maturity security to its stated maturity, including those fixed maturity securities classified as available for sale. Therefore, the decision to sell any such fixed maturity security classified as available for sale reflects the judgment of AIG’s management that the security

     The valuation of invested assets involves obtaining a market value for each security. The source for the market value is generally from market exchanges or dealer quotations, with the exception of nontraded securities.

     If AIG chooses to hold a security, it evaluates the security for an impairment in valuation. As a matter of policy, the determination that a security has incurred an other-than-temporary decline in value and the amount of any loss recognition requires the judgment of AIG’s management and a continual review of its investments.

     In general, a security is considered a candidate for impairment if it meets any of the following criteria:

•	Trading at a significant (25 percent or more) discount to par, amortized cost (if lower) or cost for an extended period of time (nine months or longer);
•	The occurrence of a discrete credit event resulting in (i) the issuer defaulting on a material outstanding obligation; or (ii) the issuer seeking protection from creditors under the bankruptcy laws or any similar laws intended for the court supervised reorganization of insolvent enterprises; or (iii) the issuer proposing a voluntary reorganization pursuant to which creditors are asked to exchange their claims for cash or securities having a fair value substantially lower than par value of their claims; or
•	In the opinion of AIG’s management, it is possible that AIG may not realize a full recovery on its investment, irrespective of the occurrence of one of the foregoing events.

     Once a security has been identified as other-than-temporarily impaired, the amount of such impairment is determined by reference to that security’s contemporaneous market price and recorded as a charge to earnings.

     As a result of these policies, AIG recorded impairment losses, net of taxes, of $92 million and $79 million in the first three months of 2005 and 2004, respectively.

     No impairment charge with respect to any one single credit was significant to AIG’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations, and no individual impairment loss exceeded 1.0 percent of consolidated net income for the first three months of 2005.

     Excluding the other-than-temporary impairments noted above, the changes in market value for AIG’s available for sale portfolio, which constitutes the vast majority of AIG’s investments, were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as unrealized gains or losses, net of tax.

     At March 31, 2005, the fair value of AIG’s fixed maturities and equity securities aggregated to $395.3 billion. At March 31, 2005, aggregate unrealized gains after taxes for fixed maturity and equity securities were $10.9 billion. At March 31, 2005, the aggregate unrealized losses after taxes of fixed maturity and equity securities were approximately $1.8 billion.

     The effect on net income of unrealized losses after taxes will be further mitigated upon realization, because certain realized losses will be charged to participating policyholder accounts, or realization will result in current decreases in the amortization of certain deferred policy acquisition costs.

At March 31, 2005, unrealized losses for fixed maturity securities and equity securities did not reflect any significant industry concentrations.

The amortized cost of fixed maturities available for sale in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2005, by contractual maturity, is shown below:

		Amortized
(in millions)		Cost
Due in one year or less		$	3,075
Due after one year through five years			23,137
Due after five years through ten years			38,423
Due after ten years			43,305
Total		$	107,940

     In the three months ended March 31, 2005, the pretax realized losses incurred with respect to the sale of fixed maturities and equity securities were $419 million. The aggregate fair value of securities sold was $13.4 billion, which was approximately 99 percent of amortized cost. The average period of time that securities sold at a loss during the three months ended March 31, 2005 were trading continuously at a price below book value was approximately four months.

At March 31, 2005, aggregate pretax unrealized gains were $16.7 billion, while the pretax unrealized losses with respect to investment grade bonds, below investment grade bonds and equity securities were $2.1 billion, $450 million and $248 million, respectively. Aging of the pretax unrealized losses with respect to these securities, distributed as a percentage of cost relative to unrealized loss (the extent by which the market value is less than amortized cost or cost), including the number of respective items, was as follows:

(a)	For bonds, represents amortized cost.
(b)	As more fully described above, upon realization, certain realized losses will be charged to participating policyholder accounts, or realization will result in a current decrease in the amortization of certain deferred policy acquisition costs.

     As stated previously, the valuation for AIG’s investment portfolio comes from market exchanges or dealer quotations, with the exception of nontraded securities. AIG considers nontraded securities to mean certain fixed income investments, certain structured securities, direct private equities, limited partnerships and hedge funds. The aggregate carrying value of these securities at March 31, 2005 was approximately $75 billion.

     The methodology used to estimate fair value of nontraded fixed income investments is by reference to traded securities with similar attributes and using a matrix pricing methodology. This technique takes into account such factors as the industry, the security’s rating and tenor, its coupon rate, its position in the capital structure of the issuer, and other relevant factors. The change in fair value is recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax.

     For certain structured securities, the carrying value is based on an estimate of the security’s future cash flows pursuant to the requirements of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.” The change in carrying value is recognized in income.

     Hedge funds and limited partnerships in which AIG holds in the aggregate less than a five percent interest are carried at fair value. The change in fair value is recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax.

     With respect to hedge funds and limited partnerships in which AIG holds in the aggregate a five percent or greater interest, AIG uses the equity method to record these investments. Changes in value are recorded in earnings.

     AIG obtains the fair value of its investments in limited partnerships and hedge funds from information provided by the general partner or manager of each of these investments, the accounts of which are generally audited on an annual basis.

     Each of these investment categories is regularly tested to determine if impairment in value exists. Various valuation

Financial Services Operations

AIG’s Financial Services subsidiaries engage in diversified activities including aircraft and equipment leasing, capital market transactions, consumer finance and insurance premium financing. (See also Note 2 of Notes to Financial Statements.)

Aircraft Finance

     AIG’s Aircraft Finance operations represent the operations of International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC), which generates its revenues primarily from leasing new and used commercial jet aircraft to domestic and foreign airlines. Revenues also result from the remarketing of commercial jets for its own account, for airlines and for financial institutions.

     ILFC finances its purchases of aircraft primarily through the issuance of a variety of debt instruments. The composite borrowing rates at the end of the first three months of 2005 and 2004 were 4.49 percent and 4.34 percent, respectively. (See also the discussions under “Capital Resources” and “Liquidity” herein and Note 2 of Notes to Financial Statements.)

     ILFC is exposed to operating loss and liquidity strain through nonperformance of aircraft lessees, through owning aircraft which it would be unable to sell or re-lease at acceptable rates at lease expiration and, in part, through committing to purchase aircraft which it would be unable to lease.

     ILFC manages its lessee nonperformance exposure through credit reviews and security deposit requirements. As a result of these measures and its own contingency planning, ILFC did not suffer any material losses from airline shutdowns in the aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks, but there can be no assurance that ILFC will successfully manage the risks relating to the effect of possible future deterioration in the airline industry. Over 80 percent of ILFC’s fleet is leased to non-U.S. carriers, and this fleet, comprised of the most efficient aircraft in the airline industry, continues to be in high demand from such carriers.

     ILFC typically contracts to re-lease aircraft before the end of the existing lease term. For aircraft returned before the end of the lease term, ILFC has generally been able to re-lease such aircraft within two to six months of its return. While some of the lease rates for aircraft that have been redeployed are lower, the effect of these reduced revenues is partially offset by low interest rates, which reduces ILFC’s financing costs. As a lessor, ILFC considers an aircraft “idle” or “off lease” when the aircraft is not subject to a signed lease agreement or signed letter of intent. ILFC had one aircraft off lease at March 31, 2005. (See also the discussions under “Capital Resources” and “Liquidity” herein.)

     ILFC sold a portfolio consisting of 34 aircraft in 2004 to a trust connected to a securitization transaction. Certain of AIG’s Life Insurance & Retirement Services businesses purchased a large share of the securities issued in connection with this securitization, which included both debt and equity securities.

     Management formally reviews regularly, and no less frequently than quarterly, issues affecting ILFC’s fleet, including events and circumstances that may cause impairment of aircraft values. Management evaluates aircraft in the fleet as necessary, based on these events and circumstances in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (FAS 144). ILFC has not recognized any impairment related to its fleet, as the existing service potential of the aircraft in ILFC’s portfolio has not been diminished. Further, ILFC has been able to re-lease the aircraft without diminution in lease rates to an extent that would require an impairment write-down. (See also the discussions under “Liquidity” herein.)

Capital Markets

     AIG’s Capital Markets operations represents the integrated operations of AIGFP and AIGTG. As Capital Markets is a transaction-oriented operation, current and past revenues and operating results may not provide a basis for predicting future performance. Also, AIG’s Capital Markets operations may be adversely affected by the downgrades in AIG’s credit ratings. See “Outlook”, for a further discussion of the potential effect of the rating downgrades on AIG’s Capital Markets businesses herein.

     AIG’s Capital Markets operations derive substantially all their revenues from proprietary positions entered in connection with counterparty transactions rather than from speculative transactions. These subsidiaries participate in the derivatives dealer market conducting, primarily as principal, an interest rate, currency, equity, commodity and credit products business.

     As a dealer, AIGFP marks all derivative and trading transactions to fair value daily. Thus, a gain or loss on each transaction is recognized daily. Under GAAP, in certain instances, gains and losses are required to be recorded in earnings immediately, whereas in other instances, they are required to be recognized over the life of the underlying contracts. AIGFP hedges the market risks arising from its transactions. Therefore, revenues and operating income are not significantly exposed to or affected by market fluctuations and volatility, except for the volatility resulting from differences in the timing of the revenue recognition for the positions that do not qualify for hedge accounting under FAS 133 compared with their associated hedges. Revenues of the Capital Markets operations and the percentage change in revenues for any given period are significantly affected by the number and size of transactions entered into by these subsidiaries during that period relative to those entered into during the

45

---

 

     Derivative transactions are entered into in the ordinary course of Capital Markets operations. Therefore, income on interest rate, currency, equity, commodity and credit derivatives along with their related hedges is recorded at fair value, determined by references to the mark to market value of the derivative or their estimated fair value where market prices are not readily available. The resulting aggregate unrealized gains or losses from the derivative is reflected in the income statement in the current year. In the first quarter of 2005, less than five percent of revenues resulted from transactions valued at estimated fair value. The mark to fair value of derivative transactions is reflected in the balance sheet in the captions “Unrealized gain on swaps, options and forward transactions” and “Unrealized loss on swaps, options and forward transactions.” Unrealized gains represent the present value of the aggregate of each net receivable by counterparty, and the unrealized losses represent the present value of the aggregate of each net payable by counterparty as of March 31, 2005. These amounts will change from one period to the next due to changes in interest rates, currency rates, equity and commodity prices and other market variables, as well as cash movements, execution of new transactions and the maturing of existing transactions. (See also the discussion under “Derivatives” herein.)

     Spread income on investments and borrowings is recorded on an accrual basis over the life of the transaction. Investments are classified as securities available for sale and are marked to market with the resulting unrealized gains or losses reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. U.S. dollar denominated borrowings are carried at cost, while borrowings in any currency other than the U.S. dollar result in unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses reported in income. AIGFP hedges the economic exposure on its investments and borrowings through its derivatives portfolio. The requirements under FAS 133 hedge accounting were not met for certain of these hedge transactions for the period ended March 31, 2005. Thus, these hedges are marked to fair value with the unrealized gains or losses reported in income.

Consumer Finance

     Domestically, AIG’s Consumer Finance operations derive a substantial portion of their revenues from finance charges assessed on outstanding mortgages, home equity loans, secured and unsecured consumer loans and retail merchant financing. Credit quality continues to be strong and receivables grew substantially. Overseas operations, particularly those in emerging markets, provide credit cards, personal and auto loans, term deposits, savings accounts, sales finance and mortgages.

     Consumer Finance operations are exposed to loss when contractual payments are not received. Collection exposure is managed through tight underwriting controls, mix of loans and collateral thereon.

Financial Services operations for the three month periods ending March 31, 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

(in millions)		2005				2004
Revenues(a):
Aircraft Finance(b)		$	858			$	752
Capital Markets(c)(d)			738				317
Consumer Finance(e)			833				693
Other			20				26
Total		$	2,449			$	1,788
Operating income(a):
Aircraft Finance		$	206			$	180
Capital Markets(d)			599				167
Consumer Finance			231				183
Other, including intercompany adjustments			7				15
Total		$	1,043			$	545

(a)	Includes the unrealized gain (loss) attributable to economic hedges not qualifying for hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133, including the related foreign exchange gains and losses. For the first three months of 2005 and 2004, the effect was $15 million and $20 million, respectively, in operating income for Aircraft Finance and $449 million and $37 million in both revenues and operating income for Capital Markets.
(b)	Revenues were primarily from ILFC aircraft lease rentals.
(c)	Revenues, shown net of interest expense, were primarily from hedged proprietary positions entered into in connection with counterparty transactions and the effect of not qualifying for hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133 described in (a) above.
(d)	Certain transactions entered into by AIGFP generate tax credits and benefits which are shown in the income tax line on the consolidated statement of income. The amount of tax credits and benefits for the first three months of March 31, 2005 and 2004 are $19 million, and $35 million, respectively.
(e)	Revenues were primarily finance charges.

Financial Services Results

Financial Services operating income increased in the first three months of 2005 compared to the same period of 2004 due to strong results in all the businesses and the accounting effect of FAS 133. Fluctuations in revenues and operating income from quarter to quarter are not unusual because of the transaction-oriented nature of Capital Markets operations and hedge accounting treatment not being obtained under FAS 133.

     To the extent the Financial Services subsidiaries, other than AIGFP, use derivatives to hedge their assets or liabilities with respect to their future cash flows, and such hedges do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133, the changes in fair value of such derivatives are recorded in realized capital gains (losses) or other revenues.

46

---

 

     Financial market conditions in the first three months of 2005 compared with the same period of 2004 were characterized by interest rates which were broadly unchanged across fixed income markets globally, some widening of credit spreads, and higher equity valuations. Capital Markets’ results in 2005 compared with 2004 reflected a shift in product segment activity to respond to these conditions.

     The most significant component of Capital Markets operating expenses is compensation, which was approximately $111 million and $114 million in the first three months of 2005 and 2004, respectively. The amount of compensation was not affected by unrealized gains or losses attributable to economic hedges, including the related foreign exchange gains and losses not qualifying for hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133.

     With respect to ILFC, the revenue growth in the first three months of 2005 compared to the same period of 2004 resulted primarily from the increase in flight equipment under operating lease, and the increase in the relative value of the leased fleet. ILFC continued to see net improvements in lease rates and an increasing level of interest from traditional buyers, third-party investors and debt providers for the purchase of aircraft from ILFC’s extensive lease portfolio. Thus, the outlook for the remainder of 2005 is positive.

     In connection with a global aircraft lease transaction entered into in 2000 for a total of 14 aircraft, ILFC acquired certain securities of and issued certain guarantees to ATA Airlines and related entities (ATA). During the fourth quarter of 2004, ATA filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On the basis of estimates of the probable outcome of the ATA bankruptcy, ILFC recorded a charge in the fourth quarter to write down the value of the ATA securities and record obligations assumed under the guarantee. The pre-tax charges aggregated $54 million (reported as a realized capital loss) and did not have a material effect on AIG’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

     ATA has cured all of the defaults under the existing leases and continues to perform under the leases at the pre-bankruptcy contracted lease terms.

     Consumer Finance operations, both domestically and internationally, did very well with increased revenues and operating income.

     The increase in Consumer Finance revenues in 2005 was the result of growth in average finance receivables. Credit quality of those receivables continues to be strong. Foreign Consumer Finance operations performed well as the operations in Poland continued its strong growth and the Hong Kong credit card business benefited from the strengthening local economy resulting in less need for loan loss provisions. Further, the continuing low interest rate and charge-off environment led to an improvement in the operating income in 2005 over 2004.

     Financial Services operating income represented 19.2 percent of AIG’s consolidated income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of accounting changes in the first quarter of 2005. This compares to 13.8 percent in the first quarter of 2004. The increase in contribution percentage in 2005 was due to the effect of hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133.

Financial Services Invested Assets

The following table is a summary of the composition of AIG’s Financial Services invested assets at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. (See also the discussions under “Operating Review: Financial Services Operations,” “Capital Resources” and “Derivatives” herein.)

		2005								2004
		Invested				Percent of				Invested				Percent of
(dollars in millions)		Assets				Total				Assets				Total
Flight equipment primarily under operating leases, net of accumulated depreciation		$	34,550				23.0	%		$	32,705				22.4	%
Finance receivables, net of allowance			24,929				16.6				23,574				16.2
Unrealized gain on swaps, options and forward transactions			20,149				13.4				22,670				15.5
Securities available for sale, at market value			29,332				19.6				30,448				20.9
Trading securities, at market value			3,485				2.3				3,142				2.1
Securities purchased under agreements to resell, at contract value			32,570				21.7				26,272				18.0
Trading assets			1,372				0.9				3,331				2.3
Spot commodities, at market value			98				0.1				95				0.1
Other, including short-term investments			3,481				2.4				3,625				2.5
Total		$	149,966				100.0	%		$	145,862				100.0	%

     As previously discussed, the cash used for the purchase of flight equipment is derived primarily from the proceeds of ILFC’s debt financings. The primary sources for the repayment of this debt and the interest expense thereon are the cash flow from operations, proceeds from the sale of flight equipment and the rollover and refinancing of the prior debt. During the first three months of 2005, ILFC acquired flight equipment costing $2.22 billion. (See also the discussion under “Operating Review: Financial Services Operations” and “Capital Resources” herein.)

     AIG’s Consumer Finance operations provide a wide variety of consumer finance products both domestically and over-

     With respect to credit losses, the allowance for finance receivable losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to absorb anticipated credit losses existing in that portfolio.

     Capital Markets derivative transactions are carried at market value or at estimated fair value when market prices are not readily available. AIGFP reduces its economic risk exposure through similarly valued offsetting transactions including swaps, trading securities, options, forwards and futures. The estimated fair values of these transactions represent assessments of the present value of expected future cash flows. These transactions are exposed to liquidity risk if AIGFP were required to sell or close out the transactions prior to maturity. AIG believes that the effect of any such event would not be significant to AIG’s financial condition or its overall liquidity. (See also the discussion under “Operating Review: Financial Services Operations” and “Derivatives” herein.)

     AIGFP uses the proceeds from the issuance of notes and bonds and GIA borrowings to invest in a diversified portfolio of securities, including securities available for sale, at market, and derivative transactions. The funds may also be temporarily invested in securities purchased under agreements to resell. The proceeds from the disposal of the aforementioned securities available for sale and securities purchased under agreements to resell have been used to fund the maturing GIAs or other AIGFP financings, or invest in new assets. (See also the discussion under “Capital Resources” herein.)

     Securities available for sale is predominantly a portfolio of fixed income securities, where the individual securities have varying degrees of credit risk. At March 31, 2005, the average credit rating of this portfolio was AA+ or the equivalent thereto as determined through rating agencies or internal review. AIGFP has also entered into credit derivative transactions to hedge its credit risk associated with $149 million of these securities. There have been no significant downgrades through March 31, 2005.

     AIGFP’s risk management objective is to minimize interest rate, currency, commodity and equity risks associated with its securities available for sale. That is, when AIGFP purchases a security for its securities available for sale investment portfolio, it simultaneously enters into an offsetting internal hedge such that the payment terms of the hedging transaction offset the payment terms of the investment security, which achieves the economic result of converting the return on the underlying security to USD LIBOR plus or minus a spread based on the underlying profit on each security on the initial trade date. The market risk associated with such internal hedges is managed on a portfolio basis, with third party hedging transactions executed as necessary. As hedge accounting treatment is not achieved in accordance with FAS 133, the unrealized gains and losses on these securities, resulting from changes in interest rates, currency rates, commodity and equity prices, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income while the unrealized gains and losses on the related economic hedges are reflected in operating income. When a security is sold, the related hedging transaction is terminated. The realized gain or loss with respect to each security is then recorded in operating income.

     Securities purchased under agreements to resell are treated as collateralized financing transactions. AIGFP takes possession of or obtains a security interest in securities purchased under agreements to resell. AIGFP further minimizes its credit risk by monitoring counterparty credit exposure and, when it deems necessary, it requires additional collateral to be deposited. Trading securities, at market value are marked to market daily and are held to meet the short-term risk management objectives of AIGFP.

     AIGFP is exposed to credit risk. If its securities available for sale portfolio were to suffer significant default and the collateral held declined significantly in value with no replacement or the credit default swap counterparty failed to perform, AIGFP could have a liquidity strain. AIG guarantees AIGFP’s payment obligations, including its debt obligations.

     AIGFP also conducts, as principal, market making and trading activities in foreign exchange, and commodities, primarily precious metals. AIGFP owns inventories in the commodities in which it trades and may reduce the exposure to market risk through the use of swaps, forwards, futures and option contracts. AIGFP uses derivatives to manage the economic exposure of its various trading positions and transactions from adverse movements of interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. AIGFP supports its trading activities largely through trading liabilities, unrealized losses on swaps, short-term borrowings, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and securities and commodities sold but not yet purchased. (See also the discussions under “Capital Resources.”)

The gross unrealized gains and gross unrealized losses of Capital Markets included in the financial services assets and liabilities at March 31, 2005 were as follows:

		Gross				Gross
		Unrealized				Unrealized
(in millions)		Gains				Losses
Securities available for sale, at market value		$	1,046			$	454
Unrealized gain/ loss on swaps, options and forward transactions*			20,149				14,751

*	These amounts are also presented as the respective balance sheet amounts.

     Trading securities, at market value, and securities and spot commodities sold but not yet purchased, at market value are marked to market daily with the unrealized gain or loss being recognized in income at that time. These trading securities are held to meet the short-term risk management objectives of Capital Markets operations.

     The senior management of AIG defines the policies and establishes general operating parameters for Capital Markets operations. AIG’s senior management has established various oversight committees to review the various financial market, operational and credit issues of the Capital Markets operations. The senior management of AIGFP reports the results of its operations to and reviews future strategies with AIG’s senior management.

     AIG actively manages the exposures to limit potential losses, while maximizing the rewards afforded by these business opportunities. In doing so, AIG must continually manage a variety of exposures including credit, market, liquidity, operational and legal risks.

     At March 31, 2005, AIGFP held a large portfolio of privately negotiated financing transactions with institutional counterparties in the United Kingdom. Certain provisions in the UK Finance Bill that was published by the House of Commons on March 22, 2005 have caused AIGFP’s counterparties to exercise rights to unwind these transactions early. Although the unwinding of these transactions will not cause AIGFP to suffer any losses, the unwinds do mean that AIGFP will not realize spread income in the future that AIGFP expects it would have realized had the transactions remained outstanding. The aggregate reduction in 2005 operating income attributable to such foregone future accrual earnings is currently expected to be approximately $75 million.

Asset Management Operations

AIG’s Asset Management operations comprise a wide variety of investment-related services and investment products including institutional and retail asset management, broker dealer services and spread-based investment business from the sale of guaranteed investment contracts, also known as funding agreements (GICs). Such services and products are offered to individuals and institutions both domestically and overseas.

     As discussed above, AIG Retirement Services operations are now reported with Life Insurance operations. Therefore, Asset Management operations now represent the results of AIG’s asset management and brokerage services operations, mutual fund operations and the foreign and domestic GIC operations.

Asset Management revenues and operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

(in millions)			2005				2004
Revenues:
	Guaranteed investment contracts		$	896			$	730
	Institutional Asset Management(a)			317				183
	Brokerage Services and Mutual Funds			63				61
	Other			99				58
Total			$	1,375			$	1,032
Operating income:
	Guaranteed investment contracts		$	257			$	223
	Institutional Asset Management(a)(b)			159				55
	Brokerage Services and Mutual Funds			13				20
	Other			97				55
Total			$	526			$	353

(a)	Includes AIG Global Investment Group and certain smaller asset management operations.
(b)	Includes the results of certain AIG managed private equity and real estate funds that are consolidated effective December 31, 2003 pursuant to FIN46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”. For the first three months of 2005 and 2004, operating income includes $75 million and $4 million of third-party limited partner earnings offset in Minority interest expense.

Asset Management Results

Asset Management operating income increased in the first three months of 2005 compared to the same period of 2004 as a result of a strong global product portfolio. The operating income growth results from fees related to the management of mutual funds and various investment portfolios that are in great part contingent upon the growth in the equity markets and customer interest in equity sensitive products. Thus, as equity markets expand and contract, the appetite for listed and private equity investment changes. The revenues and operating income with respect to this segment are similarly affected. GICs are sold domestically and abroad to both institutions and individuals. These products are written on an opportunistic basis when market conditions are favorable. GIC revenues include income from SunAmerica partnerships supporting the GIC line of business and are significantly affected by performance in the equity markets. Thus, revenues, operating income and cash flow attributable to GICs will vary from one reporting period to the next. Growth in GIC operating income compared to the first quarter of 2004 reflects improved partnership returns and increased assets under management, partially offset by spread compression on the core GIC portfolio. Spread compression has occurred as the base portfolio yield declined due to declining interest rates and the effect of recognizing capital gains in prior periods, and also due to an increase in the cost of funds in the short-term floating rate portion of the GIC portfolio only partially offset by increased investment income from the floating rate assets backing the portfolio. AIG expects to launch a matched investment program utilizing issuances of AIG debt securities,

     Asset Management operating income represented 9.7 percent of AIG’s consolidated income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change in the first three months of 2005. This compares to 9.0 percent in the same period of 2004.

     At March 31, 2005, AIG’s third party assets under management, including both retail mutual funds and institutional accounts, exceeded $55 billion and the aggregate GIC reserve was $56.0 billion.

Other Operations

Other income (deductions)-net includes AIG’s equity in certain partially owned companies, the cash distributions on the liabilities connected to trust preferred stock, as well as the income and expenses of the parent holding company and other miscellaneous income and expenses. Other income (deductions)-net amounted to $(25) million and $(259) million in the first three months of 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Capital Resources

At March 31, 2005, AIG had total consolidated shareholders’ equity of $82.68 billion and total consolidated borrowings of $104.78 billion. At that date, $95.26 billion of such borrowings were either not guaranteed by AIG or were AIGFP’s matched borrowings under obligations of guaranteed investment agreements (GIAs), liabilities connected to trust preferred stock, or matched notes and bonds payable.

Borrowings

At March 31, 2005, AIG’s net borrowings were $9.51 billion after reflecting amounts that were matched borrowings under AIGFP’s obligations of GIAs, matched notes and bonds payable, amounts not guaranteed by AIG and liabilities connected to trust preferred stock. The following table summarizes borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004:

     For a description of the effects on AIG’s capital resources, including the cost of borrowing, of recent downgrades and rating actions by the major rating agencies, see the discussion under “Outlook” herein.

     During the first three months of 2005, AIG did not issue any medium term notes. AIG intends to continue its customary practice of issuing debt securities from time to time to

     On May 15, 2003, AIG sold $1.5 billion principal amount of notes in a Rule 144A/Regulation S offering, $500 million of which bear interest at a rate of 2.875 percent per annum and mature in 2008 and $1.0 billion of which bear interest at a rate of 4.250 percent per annum and mature in 2013. The notes are senior unsecured obligations of AIG and rank equally with all of AIG’s other senior debt outstanding. AIG completed an exchange offer in April 2004 with respect to the Rule 144A/Regulation S Notes and issued in exchange substantially identical notes that are registered under the Securities Act.

     AIGFP uses the proceeds from the issuance of notes and bonds and GIA borrowings to invest in a diversified portfolio of securities and derivative transactions. The borrowings may also be temporarily invested in securities purchased under agreements to resell. (See also the discussions under “Operating Review,” “Liquidity” and “Derivatives” herein.)

     AIGFP has established a Euro Medium Term Note Program under which an aggregate principal amount of up to $5.0 billion of notes may be outstanding. The Program provides that additional notes may be issued to replace matured or redeemed notes. As of March 31, 2005, $8.25 billion of notes had been issued under the program, $4.94 billion of which were outstanding including $124 million resulting from foreign exchange translation into U.S. dollars. Notes issued under this program are included in Notes and Bonds Payable in the preceding table of borrowings.

     AIG Funding, Inc. (AIG Funding), through the issuance of commercial paper, helps fulfill the short-term cash requirements of AIG and its subsidiaries. AIG Funding intends to continue to meet AIG’s funding requirements through the issuance of commercial paper guaranteed by AIG. The issuance of AIG Funding’s commercial paper is subject to the approval of AIG’s Board of Directors.

     AIG and AIG Funding are parties to unsecured syndicated revolving credit facilities aggregating $2.75 billion, consisting of $1.375 billion in a 364-day revolving credit facility that expires in July of 2005 and $1.375 billion in a five-year revolving credit facility that expires in July of 2007. The 364-day facility allows for the conversion by AIG of any outstanding loans at expiration into one-year term loans. The facilities can be used for general corporate purposes and also to provide backup for AIG’s commercial paper programs administered by AIG Funding. AIG expects to replace or extend these credit facilities on or prior to their expiration. There are currently no borrowings outstanding under these facilities, nor were any borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2005.

     AIG obtained waivers from the lenders under these revolving credit facilities providing for the extension of the delivery date of AIG’s consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of 2005 through June 30, 2005.

     AIG is also a party to an unsecured inter-company revolving credit facility provided by certain of its subsidiaries aggregating $2 billion that expires in October of 2005. The facility allows for the conversion of any outstanding loans at expiration into one-year term loans. The facility can be used for general corporate purposes and also to provide backup for AIG’s commercial paper programs. AIG expects to replace or extend this credit facility on or prior to its expiration. There are currently no borrowings outstanding under the inter-company facility, nor were any borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2005.

     As of November 2001, AIG guaranteed the notes and bonds of AGC.

     Preferred stock issued by an AGC subsidiary, American General Capital I, with a liquidation value of $200 million was redeemed for cash on September 8, 2004. AGC redeemed the related Junior Subordinated Debentures at that time, extinguishing the liabilities connected to the trust preferred stock.

     ILFC fulfills its short term cash requirements through the issuance of commercial paper. The issuance of commercial paper is subject to the approval of ILFC’s Board of Directors and is not guaranteed by AIG. ILFC is a party to unsecured syndicated revolving credit facilities aggregating $6.0 billion at March 31, 2005. The facilities can be used for general corporate purposes and also to provide backup for ILFC’s commercial paper program and consist of $4.0 billion in a 364-day revolving credit facility that expires in October 2005, with a one-year term out option, and $2.0 billion in a five-year revolving credit facility that expires in October 2009. ILFC expects to replace or extend these credit facilities on or prior to their expiration. There are currently no borrowings under these facilities, nor were any borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2005.

     At March 31, 2005, ILFC had increased the aggregate principal amount outstanding of its medium term and long-term notes. The foreign exchange adjustment for the foreign currency denominated debt was $933 million at March 31, 2005 and $1.2 billion at December 31, 2004. ILFC had $13.13 billion of debt securities registered for public sale at March 31, 2005. As of March 31, 2005, $6.11 billion of debt securities were issued. In addition, ILFC has a Euro Medium Term Note Program for $7.0 billion, under which $4.48 billion in notes were sold through March 31, 2005. ILFC has substantially eliminated the currency exposure arising from foreign currency denominated notes by either hedging the notes through swaps or through the offset provided by operating lease payments in Euros. Notes issued under this program are included in Notes and Bonds Payable in the preceding table of borrowings.

     ILFC had a $4.3 billion Export Credit Facility for use in connection with the purchase of approximately 75 aircraft delivered through 2001. This facility was guaranteed by various European Export Credit Agencies. The interest rate varies from 5.75 percent to 5.90 percent on these amortizing ten-year borrowings depending on the delivery date of the aircraft. At March 31, 2005, ILFC had $1.5 billion outstanding under this facility. The debt is collateralized by a pledge of the shares of a subsidiary of ILFC, which holds title to the aircraft financed under the facility. In May 2004, ILFC entered into a similarly structured Export Credit Facility (ECA) for up to a maximum of $2.64 billion for Airbus aircraft to be delivered in 2004 and 2005. The facility becomes available as the various European Export Credit Agencies provide their guarantees for aircraft based on a six-month forward-looking calendar, and the interest rate is determined through a bid process. At March 31, 2005, ILFC has $604 million outstanding under this facility. Borrowings with respect to these facilities are included in Notes and Bonds Payable in the preceding table of borrowings.

     In August 2004, ILFC received a commitment for an Ex-Im Bank comprehensive guarantee in the amount of $1.68 billion to support the financing of up to 30 new Boeing aircraft. The delivery period initially extends from September 1, 2004 through August 31, 2005, but may be extended to August 31, 2006. ILFC did not have any borrowings outstanding under this facility at March 31, 2005. During 2003, ILFC entered into various bank financings for a total funded amount of $1.3 billion. The financings mature through 2009. One tranche of one of the loans totaling $410 million was funded in Japanese yen and swapped to U.S. dollars.

     The proceeds of ILFC’s debt financing are primarily used to purchase flight equipment, including progress payments during the construction phase. The primary sources for the repayment of this debt and the interest expense thereon are the cash flow from operations, proceeds from the sale of flight equipment and the rollover and refinancing of the prior debt. (See also the discussions under “Operating Review” and “Liquidity” herein.)

     AGF fulfills its short term cash requirements through the issuance of commercial paper. The issuance of commercial paper is subject to the approval of AGF’s Board of Directors and is not guaranteed by AIG. AGF is a party to unsecured syndicated revolving credit facilities aggregating $3.25 billion, consisting of $1.75 billion in a 364-day revolving credit facility that expires in July of 2005 and $1.5 billion in a five-year revolving credit facility that expires in July of 2007. The 364-day facility allows for the conversion by AGF of any outstanding loans at expiration into one-year term loans. The facilities can be used for general corporate purposes and also to provide backup for AGF’s commercial paper programs. AGF expects to replace or extend these credit facilities on or prior to their expiration. There are currently no borrowings under these AGF facilities, nor were any borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2005.

     AGF is also party to several bilateral credit agreements aggregating $260 million at March 31, 2005. The terms and conditions of these agreements are identical to AGF’s 364-day revolving credit facility.

     During the first three months of 2005, AGF issued $1.77 billion fixed rate and variable rates medium term notes ranging in maturities from two to five years. As of March 31, 2005, notes aggregating $14.82 billion were outstanding with maturity dates ranging from 2005 to 2014 at interest rates ranging from 1.25 percent to 7.50 percent. To the extent deemed appropriate, AGF may enter into swap transactions to manage its effective borrowing with respect to these notes.

     In addition, AGF issued $2.86 billion of long-term funding in 2004 from sources including Euro-denominated and Sterling-denominated transactions totaling the equivalent of $1.82 billion. Other funding sources included private placement debt, retail note issuances and bank financings.

     AIG Credit Company (Taiwan) — (AIGCCC-Taiwan) and AIG Finance (Taiwan) Limited — (AIGF-Taiwan), both consumer finance subsidiaries in Taiwan, have issued commercial paper for the funding of their own operations. At March 31, 2005, AIG did not guarantee the commercial paper of any of its subsidiaries other than AIG Funding. (See also the discussion under “Derivatives” herein).

(d)	Primarily in connection with options to acquire aircraft.
(e)	Primarily AIG SunAmerica commitments to invest in partnerships.

(f)	Primarily commitments to invest in limited partnerships.

     “Rating triggers” have been defined by one independent rating agency to include clauses or agreements the outcome of which depends upon the level of ratings maintained by one or more rating agencies. Rating triggers generally relate to events which (i) could result in the termination or limitation of credit availability, or require accelerated repayment, (ii) could result in the termination of business contracts or (iii) could require a company to post collateral for the benefit of counterparties.

     AIG believes that any of its or its subsidiaries’ contractual obligations that are subject to “ratings triggers” or financial covenants relating to “ratings triggers” would not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, future operating results or liquidity.

     As a result of the downgrades of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings, AIG has been required to post approximately $1.16 billion of collateral with counterparties to municipal guaranteed investment agreements and financial derivatives transactions. In the event of a further downgrade, AIG will be required to post additional collateral. It is estimated that, as of the close of business on June 23, 2005, based on AIG’s outstanding municipal guaranteed investment agreements and financial derivatives transactions as of such date, a further downgrade of AIG’s long-term senior debt ratings to ‘Aa3’ by Moody’s or ‘AA–’ by S&P would permit counterparties to call for approximately $2.10 billion of additional collateral. Further, additional downgrades could result in requirements for substantial additional collateral, which could have a material effect on how AIG manages its liquidity. The actual amount of additional collateral that AIG would be required to post to counterparties in the event of such downgrades depends on market conditions, the market value of the outstanding affected transactions and other factors prevailing at the time of the downgrade. The requirement to post additional collateral may increase if additional counterparties begin to require credit support from AIG through collateralization agreements. Additional obligations to post collateral will increase the demand on AIG’s liquidity.

Shareholders’ Equity

AIG’s consolidated shareholders’ equity increased $2.08 billion during the first three months of 2005. During the first three months of 2005, retained earnings increased $3.36 billion, resulting from net income less dividends. Unrealized appreciation of investments, net of taxes decreased $1.27 billion and the cumulative translation adjustment loss, net of taxes, increased $99 million. During the first three months of 2005, there was a gain of $179 million, net of taxes, relating to derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedging instruments. (See also the discussion under “Operating Review” and “Liquidity” herein and the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.)

     AIG has in the past reinvested most of its unrestricted earnings in its operations and believes such continued reinvestment in the future will be adequate to meet any foreseeable capital needs. However, AIG may choose from time to time to raise additional funds through the issuance of additional securities.

Stock Purchase

During the period January 1, 2005 through March 31, 2005, AIG purchased in the open market 2,477,100 shares of its common stock. AIG from time to time may buy shares of its common stock in the open market for general corporate purposes, including to satisfy its obligations under various employee benefit plans. At March 31, 2005, an additional 36,542,700 shares could be purchased under the then current authorization by AIG’s Board of Directors.

Dividends from Insurance Subsidiaries

Payments of dividends to AIG by its insurance subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions imposed by regulatory authorities. With respect to AIG’s domestic insurance subsidiaries, the payment of any dividend requires formal notice to the insurance department in which the particular insurance subsidiary is domiciled. Under the laws of many states, an insurer may pay a dividend without prior approval of the insurance regulator when the amount of the dividend is below certain regulatory thresholds.

     With respect to AIG’s foreign insurance subsidiaries, the most significant insurance regulatory jurisdictions include Bermuda, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, Thailand and Singapore.

     AIG cannot predict whether the regulatory investigations currently underway or future regulatory issues will impair AIG’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. To AIG’s knowledge, no AIG company is currently on any regulatory or similar “watch list” with regard to solvency. (See also the discussion under “Liquidity” herein.)

Regulation and Supervision

AIG’s insurance subsidiaries, in common with other insurers, are subject to regulation and supervision by the states and jurisdictions in which they do business. In the U.S. the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has developed Risk-Based Capital (RBC) requirements. RBC relates an individual insurance company’s statutory surplus to the risk inherent in its overall operations. At March 31, 2005, the risk-based adjusted surplus of each of AIG’s Domestic General companies and of each of AIG’s Domestic Life companies exceeded each of their RBC standards. As discussed above, various regulators have commenced investigations into certain insurance business practices, including with respect to AIG. While such investigations are in their early stages, it is possible that they may result in additional regulation of the insurance industry and specific action with respect to AIG and AIG cannot predict the ultimate effect that such additional regulation might have on its business. Federal, state or local legislation may affect AIG’s ability to operate and expand its various financial services businesses and changes in the current laws, regulations or interpretations thereof may have a material adverse effect on these businesses.

     AIG’s U.S. operations are negatively affected under guarantee fund assessment laws which exist in most states. As a result of operating in a state which has guarantee fund assessment laws, a solvent insurance company may be assessed for certain obligations arising from the insolvencies of other insurance companies which operated in that state. AIG generally records these assessments upon notice. Additionally, certain states permit at least a portion of the assessed amount to be used as a credit against a company’s future premium tax

     AIG is also required to participate in various involuntary pools (principally workers compensation business) which provide insurance coverage for those not able to obtain such coverage in the voluntary markets. This participation is also recorded upon notification, as these amounts cannot reasonably be estimated.

     A substantial portion of AIG’s General Insurance business and a majority of its Life Insurance & Retirement Services business are conducted in foreign countries. The degree of regulation and supervision in foreign jurisdictions varies. Generally, AIG, as well as the underwriting companies operating in such jurisdictions, must satisfy local regulatory requirements. Licenses issued by foreign authorities to AIG subsidiaries are subject to modification and revocation. Thus, AIG’s insurance subsidiaries could be prevented from conducting future business in certain of the jurisdictions where they currently operate. AIG’s international operations include operations in various developing nations. Both current and future foreign operations could be adversely affected by unfavorable political developments up to and including nationalization of AIG’s operations without compensation. Adverse effects resulting from any one country may affect AIG’s results of operations, liquidity and financial condition depending on the magnitude of the event and AIG’s net financial exposure at that time in that country.

     Foreign operations are individually subject to local solvency margin requirements that require maintenance of adequate capitalization, which AIG complies with by country. In addition, certain foreign locations, notably Japan, have established regulations that can result in guarantee fund assessments. These have not had a material effect on AIG’s operations.

Liquidity

AIG’s liquidity is primarily derived from the operating cash flows of its General and Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations. Management believes that AIG’s liquid assets, its net cash provided by operations, and access to short-term funding through commercial paper and bank credit facilities will enable it to meet any anticipated cash requirements.

     At March 31, 2005, AIG’s consolidated invested assets included $24.38 billion of cash and short-term investments. Consolidated net cash provided from operating activities in the first three months of 2005 amounted to $654 million. The $654 million in consolidated net cash provided by operating activities is net of approximately $8 billion used by AIGFP to purchase securities purchased under agreements to resell and to repurchase securities sold under agreements to repurchase in the ordinary course of AIGFP’s business. This operating activity was funded in part by proceeds from security sales under similar repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, but primarily by AIGFP’s financing activities, specifically proceeds from guaranteed investment agreements and notes, bonds, loans and mortgages payable. To date, approximately half of the $8 billion was subsequently invested in securities available for sale.

     The liquidity of the combined insurance operations is derived both domestically and abroad. The combined insurance operating cash flow is derived from two sources, underwriting operations and investment operations. Cash flow includes periodic premium collections, including policyholders’ contract deposits, cash flows from investment operations and paid loss recoveries less reinsurance premiums, losses, benefits, and acquisition and operating expenses. Generally, there is a time lag from when premiums are collected and, when as a result of the occurrence of events specified in the policy, the losses and benefits are paid. Investment income cash flow is primarily derived from interest and dividends received and includes realized capital gains net of realized capital losses. (See also the discussions under “Operating Review: General Insurance Operations” and “Life Insurance & Retirement Services Operations” herein.)

     With respect to General Insurance operations, if paid losses accelerated beyond AIG’s ability to fund such paid losses from current operating cash flows, AIG might need to liquidate a portion of its General Insurance investment portfolio and/or arrange for financing. Potential events causing such a liquidity strain could be the result of several significant catastrophic events occurring in a relatively short period of time. Additional strain on liquidity could occur if the investments sold to fund such paid losses were sold into a depressed market place and/or reinsurance recoverable on such paid losses became uncollectible or collateral supporting such reinsurance recoverable significantly decreased in value. (See also the discussions under “Operating Review: General Insurance Operations” herein.)

     With respect to Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations, if a substantial portion of the Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations bond portfolio diminished significantly in value and/or defaulted, AIG might need to liquidate other portions of its Life Insurance & Retirement Services investment portfolio and/or arrange financing. Potential events causing such a liquidity strain could be the result of economic collapse of a nation or region in which AIG Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations exist, nationalization, terrorist acts or other such economic or political upheaval. In addition, a significant rise in interest rates leading to a significant increase in policyholder surrenders could also create a liquidity strain. (See also the discussions under “Operating Review: Life Insurance & Retirement Services Operations” herein.)

     In addition to the combined insurance pretax operating cash flow, AIG’s insurance operations held $13.18 billion in cash and short-term investments at March 31, 2005. Operating cash flow and the cash and short-term balances held provided AIG’s insurance operations with a significant amount of liquidity.

     This liquidity is available, among other things, to purchase predominately high quality and diversified fixed income securities and, to a lesser extent, marketable equity securities, and to provide mortgage loans on real estate, policy loans and collateral loans. This cash flow coupled with proceeds of approximately $36 billion from the maturities, sales and redemptions of fixed income securities and from the sale of equity securities was used to purchase approximately $49 billion of fixed income securities and marketable equity securities during the first three months of 2005.

     AIG’s major Financial Services operating subsidiaries consist of AIGFP, ILFC, AGF and AIGCFG. Sources of funds considered in meeting the liquidity needs of AIGFP’s operations include execution of guaranteed investment agreements, issuance of long-term and short-term debt, proceeds from maturities and sales of securities available for sale, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and securities and spot commodities sold but not yet purchased. ILFC, AGF and AIGCFG all utilize the commercial paper markets, bank loans and bank credit facilities as sources of liquidity. ILFC and AGF also fund in the domestic and international capital markets without reliance on any guarantee from AIG. An additional source of liquidity for ILFC is the use of export credit facilities. AIGCFG also uses wholesale and retail bank deposits as sources of funds. On occasion, AIG has provided equity capital to ILFC, AGF and AIGCFG and provides intercompany loans to AIGCFG. Cash flow provided from operations is a major source of liquidity for AIG’s primary Financial Services operating subsidiaries.

     AIG, the parent company, funds its short-term working capital needs through commercial paper issued by AIG Funding. As of March 31, 2005, AIG Funding had $3.48 billion of commercial paper outstanding with an average maturity of 26 days. As additional liquidity, AIG parent has a $2 billion inter-company revolving credit facility provided by certain of its subsidiaries, a $1.375 billion 364-day revolving bank credit facility that expires in July 2005 and a $1.375 billion five year revolving bank credit facility that expires in July 2007. AIG parent’s primary sources of cash flow are dividends and loans from its subsidiaries. AIG parent’s primary uses of cash flow are for debt service and the payment of dividends to shareholders. As of March 31, 2005, including debt obligations of AGC that are guaranteed by AIG, remaining debt maturities due in 2005 are $300 million, $55 million and $500 million for the second, third and fourth quarters, respectively. See also Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in AIG’s 2004 Form 10-K for additional information on debt maturities for AIG and its subsidiaries.

Special Purpose Vehicles and Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

AIG uses special purpose vehicles (SPVs) and off balance sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business. As a result of recent changes in accounting, a number of SPVs and off balance sheet arrangements have been reflected in AIG’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2003, FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46). FIN 46 addressed the consolidation and disclosure rules for nonoperating entities that are now defined as Variable Interest Entities (VIEs). In December 2003, FASB issued a revision to Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46R).

     AIG has restrictive guidelines with respect to the formation of and investment in SPVs and off balance sheet arrangements. In particular, AIG has expanded the responsibility of its Complex Structured Financial Transaction Committee (CSFT) to include the review of any transaction that could enable a third party to achieve an accounting or financial reporting result that is not in conformity with applicable GAAP or subject AIG to heightened legal, reputational, regulatory or other risk. See “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting” in Item 9A of Part II included in AIG’s 2004 Form 10-K for a further discussion of the CSFT.

     For additional information related to AIG’s activities with respect to VIEs and certain guarantees see “Recent Accounting Standards” herein and also Note 8 of Notes to Financial Statements. Also, for additional disclosure regarding AIG’s commercial commitments (including guarantors), see “Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments” herein.

Derivatives

Derivatives are financial instruments among two or more parties with returns linked to or “derived” from some underlying equity, debt, commodity or other asset, liability, or index. Derivatives payments may be based on interest rates and exchange rates and/or prices of certain securities, certain commodities, financial or commodity indices, or other variables. The more significant types of derivative arrangements in which AIG transacts are swaps, forwards, futures and options. In the normal course of business, with the agreement of the original counterparty, these contracts may be terminated early or assigned to another counterparty.

     The overwhelming majority of AIG’s derivatives activities are conducted by the Capital Markets operations, thus permitting AIG to participate in the derivatives dealer market acting primarily as principal. In these derivative operations, AIG structures agreements which generally allow its counterparties to enter into transactions with respect to changes in interest and exchange rates, securities’ prices and certain commodities and financial or commodity indices.

56

---

 

     A counterparty may default on any obligation to AIG, including a derivative contract. Credit risk is a consequence of extending credit and/or carrying trading and investment positions. Credit risk exists for a derivative contract when that contract has a positive fair value to AIG. To help manage this risk, AIGFP’s credit department operates within the guidelines set and authorities granted by the AIG Credit Risk Committee. This committee establishes the credit policy, sets limits for counterparties and provides limits for derivative transactions with counterparties having different credit ratings. In addition to credit ratings, this committee takes into account other factors, including the industry and country of the counterparty. Transactions which fall outside pre-established guidelines and limits require the specific approval of the AIG Credit Risk Committee. It is also AIG’s policy to establish reserves for potential credit impairment when necessary.

     In addition, AIGFP utilizes various credit enhancements, including letters of credit, guarantees, collateral, credit triggers, credit derivatives, and margin agreements to reduce the credit risk relating to its outstanding derivative financial transactions. AIGFP requires credit enhancements in connection with specific transactions based on, among other things, the creditworthiness of the counterparties, and the transaction’s size and maturity.

     AIG’s Derivatives Review Committee provides an independent review of any proposed derivative transaction or program except those derivative transactions entered into by AIGFP with third parties. The committee examines, among other things, the nature and purpose of the derivative transaction, its potential credit exposure, if any, and the estimated benefits.

     FAS 133 requires that third-party derivatives used for hedging must be specifically matched with the underlying exposures to an outside third party and documented contemporaneously to qualify for hedge accounting treatment. In many cases, AIG did not meet these hedging requirements with respect to certain hedging transactions. Not meeting the requirements of FAS 133 does not result in any changes in AIG’s liquidity or its overall financial condition even though inter-period volatility of earnings increased.

Managing Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss of fair value resulting from adverse fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currencies, equities and commodity prices. AIG has exposures to these risks.

     AIG analyzes market risk using various statistical techniques including Value at Risk (VaR). VaR is a summary statistical measure that applies the estimated volatility and correlation of market factors to AIG’s market positions. The output from the VaR calculation is the maximum loss that could occur over a defined period of time given a certain probability. While VaR models are relatively sophisticated, the quantitative market risk information generated is limited by the assumptions and parameters established in creating the related models. AIG believes that statistical models alone do not provide a reliable method of monitoring and controlling market risk. Therefore, such models are tools and do not substitute for the experience or judgment of senior management.

Insurance

AIG has performed a separate VaR analysis for the General Insurance and Life Insurance & Retirement Services segments and for each market risk within each segment. For purposes of the VaR calculation, the insurance assets and liabilities from GICs are included in the Life Insurance & Retirement Services segment. For the calculations in the analyses the financial instrument assets included are the insurance segments’ invested assets, excluding real estate and investment income due and accrued, and the financial instrument liabilities included are reserve for losses and loss expenses, reserve for unearned premiums, future policy benefits for life and accident and health insurance contracts and other policyholders’ funds.

     AIG calculated the VaR with respect to the net fair value of each of AIG’s insurance segments as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. The VaR number represents the maximum potential loss that could be incurred with a 95 percent confidence (i.e., only 5 percent of historical scenarios show losses greater than the VaR figure) within a one-month holding period. AIG uses the historical simulation methodology that entails repricing all assets and liabilities under explicit changes in market rates within a specific historical time period. AIG uses the most recent three years of historical market information for interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity index prices. For each scenario, each transaction was repriced. Portfolio, business unit and finally AIG-wide scenario values are then calculated by netting the values of all the underlying assets and liabilities.

The following table presents the VaR on a combined basis and of each component of market risk for each of AIG’s insurance segments as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Due to diversification effects, the combined VaR is always smaller than the sum of its components.

Financial Services

AIG generally manages its market exposures within Financial Services by maintaining offsetting positions. Capital Markets seeks to minimize or set limits for open or uncovered market positions. Credit exposure is managed separately. (See the discussion on the management of credit risk above.)

     AIG’s Market Risk Management Department provides detailed independent review of AIG’s market exposures, particularly those market exposures of the Capital Markets operations. This department determines whether AIG’s market risks, as well as those market risks of individual subsidiaries, are within the parameters established by AIG’s senior management. Well established market risk management techniques such as sensitivity analysis are used. Additionally, this department verifies that specific market risks of each of certain subsidiaries are managed and hedged by that subsidiary.

     ILFC is exposed to market risk and the risk of loss of fair value and possible liquidity strain resulting from adverse fluctuations in interest rates. As of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, AIG statistically measured the loss of fair value through the application of a VaR model. In this analysis, the net fair value of Aircraft Finance operations was determined using the financial instrument assets which included the tax adjusted future flight equipment lease revenue, and the financial instrument liabilities which included the future servicing of the current debt. The estimated effect of the current derivative positions was also taken into account.

     AIG calculated the VaR with respect to the net fair value of Aircraft Finance operations using the historical simulation methodology, as previously described. As of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the average VaR with respect to the net fair value of Aircraft Finance operations was approximately $76 million and $70 million, respectively.

     Capital Markets operations are exposed to market risk due to changes in the level and volatility of interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and commodity prices. AIGFP hedges its exposure to these risks primarily through swaps, options, forwards and futures. To economically hedge interest rate risks, AIGFP may also purchase U.S. and foreign government obligations.

     AIGFP does not seek to manage the market risk of each transaction through an individual third party offsetting transaction. Rather, AIGFP takes a portfolio approach to the management of its market risk exposures. AIGFP values the predominant portion of its market-sensitive transactions by marking them to market currently through income. A smaller

     AIGFP manages market risk with a variety of transactions, including swaps, trading securities, futures and forward contracts, and other transactions as appropriate. The recorded values of these transactions may be different from the values that might be realized if AIGFP were required to sell or close out the transactions prior to maturity. AIG believes that such differences are not significant to the results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. Such differences would be immediately recognized when the transactions are sold or closed out prior to maturity.

     AIGFP attempts to secure reliable and independent current market prices, such as published exchange prices, external subscription services such as from Bloomberg or Reuters or third-party broker quotes for use in this model. When such prices are not available, AIGFP use an internal methodology which includes extrapolation from observable and verifiable prices nearest to the dates of the transactions. Historically, actual results have not materially deviated from these models.

     Systems used by Capital Markets operations can monitor each unit’s respective market positions on an intraday basis. AIGFP operates in major business centers overseas and therefore is open for business essentially 24 hours a day. Thus, the market exposure and offset strategies are monitored, reviewed and coordinated around the clock.

     AIGFP applies various testing techniques which reflect significant potential market movements in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity and equity prices, volatility levels and the effect of time. These techniques vary by currency and are regularly changed to reflect factors affecting the derivatives portfolio. The results from these analyses are regularly reviewed by AIG management.

     As described above, Capital Markets operations are exposed to the risk of loss of fair value from adverse fluctuations in interest rate and foreign currency exchange rates and equity and commodity prices as well as implied volatilities thereon. AIG statistically measures the losses of fair value through the application of a VaR model across Capital Markets.

     Capital Markets asset and liability portfolios for which the VaR analyses were performed included over the counter and exchange traded investments, derivative instruments and commodities. Because the market risk with respect to securities available for sale, at market, is substantially hedged, segregation of market sensitive instruments into trading and other than trading was not deemed necessary. The VAR calculation is unaffected by the accounting treatment of hedged transactions under FAS 133.

     In the calculation of VaR for Capital Markets operations, AIG uses the same historical simulation methodology, described under Insurance above, which entails repricing all assets and liabilities under explicit changes in market rates within a specific historical time period. AIGFP has recently enhanced its library of factors by including implied option volatilities to construct the historical scenarios for simulation

The following table presents the VaR on a combined basis and of each component of Capital Markets risk as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Due to diversification effects, the combined VaR is always smaller than the sum of its components.

Recent Accounting Standards

At the March 2004 meeting, the Emerging Issue Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus with respect to Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.” On September 30, 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF Issue 03-1-1, Effective Date of Paragraphs 10-20 of EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.”

     At the September 2004 meeting, the EITF reached a consensus with respect to Issue No. 04-8, “Accounting Issues Related to Certain Features of Contingently Convertible Debt and the Effect on Diluted Earnings per Share.”

     In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004) (FAS 123R), “Share Based Payment.” In April 2005, the SEC delayed the effective date for the revised FAS No. 123.

     In March 2005, FASB issued FSP FIN46R-5 “Implicit Variable Interests under FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.”

     For further discussion of these recent accounting standards and their application to AIG, see Note 8 of Notes to Financial Statements.

Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2005, an evaluation was carried out by AIG’s management, with the participation of AIG’s current 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under 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. Based on its evaluation, which included comparisons to the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework – issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and in light of the previously identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described within the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the inability to file this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q within the statutory time period, AIG’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2005, AIG’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective.

     Earlier in 2005, in connection with the preparation of AIG’s consolidated financial statements to be included in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, AIG’s current management initiated an internal review of AIG’s books and records, which was substantially expanded in mid-March 2005. As a result of the findings of that review, together with the results of investigations conducted by outside counsel at the request of AIG’s Audit Committee, and in consultation with AIG’s independent registered public accounting firm, AIG has restated its audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, June 30 and September 30, 2004 and 2003 and the quarter ended December 31, 2003. AIG is actively engaged in the implementation of remediation efforts to address the material weaknesses in AIG’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 2004. These remediation efforts are outlined in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K and further remediation developments will be described in future filings with the SEC.

American International Group, Inc.

Computation of Ratios of Earnings to Fixed Charges

Three Months Ended March 31, (in millions, except ratios)			2005				2004
Income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change			$	5,443				$3,939
Less – Equity income of less than 50% owned persons				39				50
Add – Dividends from less than 50% owned persons				3				3
				5,407				3,892
Add – Fixed charges				1,863				1,629
Less – Capitalized interest				15				14
Income before income taxes, minority interest, cumulative effect of an accounting change and fixed charges			$	7,255				$5,507
Fixed charges:
	Interest costs		$	1,812				$1,583
	Rental expense*			51				46
Total fixed charges			$	1,863				$1,629
Ratio of earnings to fixed charges				3.89				3.38
Secondary Ratio
Interest credited to GIC and GIA policy and contract holders			$	1,227				$1,093
Total fixed charges excluding interest credited to GIC and GIA policy and contract holders			$	636				$ 536
Secondary ratio of earnings to fixed charges				9.47				8.24

*	The proportion deemed representative of the interest factor.

The secondary ratio is disclosed for the convenience of fixed income investors and the rating agencies that serve them and is more comparable to the ratios disclosed by all issuers of fixed income securities. The secondary ratio removes interest credited to guaranteed investment contract (GIC) policyholders and guaranteed investment agreement (GIA) contractholders. Such expenses are also removed from income before income taxes, minority interest and cumulative effect of an accounting change used in this calculation. GICs and GIAs are entered into by AIG’s insurance subsidiaries, principally Sun America Life Insurance Company and AIG Financial Products Corp. and its subsidiaries, respectively. The proceeds from GICs and GIAs are invested in a diversified portfolio of securities, primarily investment grade bonds. The assets acquired yield rates greater than the rates on the related policyholders obligation or agreement, with the intent of earning operating income from the spread.
