美联储宣布接管AIG（美国最大保险集团）

AIG声明：能履行对投保人作出的承诺与责任

AIG寿险、财险与退休金业务，包括其广泛的亚洲营运业务，继续正常业务运转并保持资本充裕，完全能够履行对投保人所作出的承诺与责任。

AIG正继续寻求解决母公司短期流动性问题的解决方案，方案不会包括降低子公司资本或向其亚洲营运业务获得流动性。

AIG成员公司所签发的保单由AIG全球各成员公司直接承保。这些公司均资本金充裕，并完全按照当地监管部门严格的法律法规及资本金储备规定运营。AIG各成员公司将持续正常运作并履行对投保人所作出的承诺与责任。AIG特别指出，其在亚洲市场的长期服务传统将是AIG未来增长的关键。AIG于1919年于上海创立，AIG的一些老客户与尊贵客户均源自亚洲。

AIG成员公司郑重承诺，所有子公司资本金均达到规定水平，满足全球客户需求。

美联储发布的消息原文：

The Federal Reserve Board on Tuesday, with the full support of the Treasury Department, authorized the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to lend up to $85 billion to the American International Group (AIG) under section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. The secured loan has terms and conditions designed to protect the interests of the U.S. government and taxpayers.

The Board determined that, in current circumstances, a disorderly failure of AIG could add to already significant levels of financial market fragility and lead to substantially higher borrowing costs, reduced household wealth, and materially weaker economic performance. 

The purpose of this liquidity facility is to assist AIG in meeting its obligations as they come due. This loan will facilitate a process under which AIG will sell certain of its businesses in an orderly manner, with the least possible disruption to the overall economy. 

The AIG facility has a 24-month term. Interest will accrue on the outstanding balance at a rate of three-month Libor plus 850 basis points. AIG will be permitted to draw up to $85 billion under the facility. 

The interests of taxpayers are protected by key terms of the loan. The loan is collateralized by all the assets of AIG, and of its primary non-regulated subsidiaries.  These assets include the stock of substantially all of the regulated subsidiaries.  The loan is expected to be repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the firm’s assets. The U.S. government will receive a 79.9 percent equity interest in AIG and has the right to veto the payment of dividends to common and preferred shareholders.
