American International Group Inc. (AIG, Financial) (4.2%) (AIG – $56.82 – NYSE) is a multi-line insurance company, offering property and casualty and life insurance, serving customers in more than 130 countries and jurisdictions. AIG’s annuity and private mortgage insurance businesses have good growth prospects. The company is well positioned, as it has excess capital, sophisticated products, and broad global distribution. In addition, the company is committed to returning capital to shareholders with dividends and share buybacks. We believe it can increase these capital returns to shareholders, given greater stability of the business lines.
