Wiki Says
American International Group, Inc. (AIG), also known as AIU Holdings,
Inc., is an American insurance corporation. According to the 2008
Forbes Global 2000 list, AIG was once the 18th-largest public company
in the world.
AIG history dates back to 1919, when Cornelius Vander Starr established
an insurance agency in Shanghai, China. Starr was the first Westerner
in Shanghai to sell insurance to the Chinese, which he continued to do
until AIG left China in early 1949 — as Mao Zedong led the advance of the
Communist People's Liberation Army on Shanghai. Starr then moved the
company headquarters to its current home in New York City. The company
went on to expand, often through subsidiaries, into other markets,
including other parts of Asia, Latin America, Europe and the Middle
East.
