Risk Change Over Time
- Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 1Our The valuation of our investments involves the application of methodologies and assumptions to derive estimates, which may differ from actual experience and could result in changes to investment valuations that may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and and/or liquidity or lead to volatility in our net income.
It has been and may continue to be difficult to value those of our investments or derivatives that are not actively traded. There also may be cases where, due to the financial environment or market conditions, normally active markets become inactive or less active, which can result in insufficient observable data. As a result, valuations may include inputs and assumptions that are less observable or require greater estimation and judgment as well as valuation methods that are more complex. These values may not be realized in a market transaction, may not reflect the value of the asset and may change very rapidly as market conditions change and valuation assumptions are modified. Decreases in value and/or an inability to realize that value in a market transaction or other disposition may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
- Debt & Financing - Risk 2We rely on investment management and advisory arrangements with third-party investment managers for the majority of our investment portfolio. The historical performance of any investment manager we engage should not be considered as indicative of the future results of our investment portfolio, our future results or any returns expected on our Common Stock. portfolio.
We rely on external investment managers to manage the majority of our investment portfolio, consisting of liquid fixed income securities, structured fixed income securities, certain private credit, private fund, joint venture and partnership investments, structured products, commercial real estate-related equity investments and commercial mortgage loans. Our investment managers are generally compensated based on the size of the investment portfolios that they manage, rather than based on investment profits or income. As a result, these investment managers are not directly incentivized to maximize investment returns. There can be no guarantee that any investment manager we engage will be able to achieve any particular returns or generate investment opportunities with attractive, risk-adjusted returns for our investment portfolio in the future. If any of our investment managers becomes unable to effectively manage our portfolio investments, the concentration of assets in our portfolio that are managed by it could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. In addition, we have become more reliant on our external asset managers, and such increased dependence has reduced and may continue to reduce our internal capabilities and expertise or expose us to greater risk, including the risk that external asset managers may fail to meet our performance expectations or otherwise experience disruptions or losses.
- Debt & Financing - Risk 3We are subject to risks from our continuing equity market exposure to Corebridge. There can be no assurances that the The anticipated benefits of our sales of Corebridge stock will may not be achieved.
Since the closing of the initial public offering of Corebridge's common stock in September of 2022, we have continued to sell down our interest in Corebridge. Although Corebridge has been deconsolidated from our consolidated financial results, we continue to hold a significant stake in Corebridge's common stock. At the time of deconsolidation on June 9, 2024, we elected the fair value option to account for our remaining investment in Corebridge. From that date onward, fair value changes in Corebridge's stock and dividends received from Corebridge are recognized in net investment income. As a result, a decline in the market value of Corebridge common stock may result in a decrease in our investment income and may have a material and adverse effect on our results and financial condition. There can be no assurance as to the price, transaction costs, or timing of further Corebridge stock sales and, as a result, we may fail to realize the expected benefits of our sales of such stock, including if there are adverse movements in its market value prior to, or at the time of, such sales. For a detailed discussion of the Corebridge deconsolidation, see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
- Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 4Business Strategic transactions, including business or asset acquisitions and dispositions dispositions, may expose us to certain risks.
We have engaged in strategic transactions, including business or asset acquisitions and dispositions, and may continue to do so. Such transactions may, individually or in the aggregate, be material to us. The completion of any strategic transaction is subject to certain risks, including those relating to the receipt of required regulatory approvals, the terms and conditions of regulatory approvals, our ability to satisfy such terms and conditions, the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of a transaction and the risk that parties may not be willing or able to satisfy the conditions to a transaction. As a result, business or asset acquisitions or dispositions may not be completed as contemplated, on the expected timeline, or at all. Once completed, there can be no assurance that we will realize the anticipated economic, strategic or other benefits of any transaction. For example, the integration of businesses we acquire may not be as successful as we anticipate or there may be undisclosed risks present in such businesses. Additionally, difficulties or delays in separating a divested business from our existing infrastructure, systems and operations could reduce the anticipated economic, strategic or other benefits of such transaction. Strategic transactions, including acquisitions and dispositions involve a number of risks, such as operational, strategic, financial, accounting, legal, compliance and tax risks. Our existing businesses could also be negatively impacted by acquisitions. Risks resulting from future acquisitions may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In connection with a strategic transaction, we may also hold a concentrated position in securities of the acquirer or the target, received as part of the consideration, which subjects us to risks related to the price of equity securities and our ability to monetize such securities. We have also provided and may provide financial guarantees and indemnities in connection with the businesses we have sold or may sell, as described in greater detail in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. While we do not currently believe that claims under these indemnities will be material, it is possible that significant indemnity claims could be made against us. Any such claim or claims, if successful, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. For additional information regarding the risks associated with our continuing equity market exposure to Corebridge, see Business and Operations – "We are subject to risks from our continuing equity market exposure to Corebridge. The anticipated benefits of our sales of Corebridge stock may not be achieved" below.

Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 36
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1An "ownership change" could limit our ability to utilize tax loss and credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income.
Our ability to use U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be significantly limited if we experience an "ownership change" as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. In general, an ownership change will occur when the percentage of AIG Parent's ownership (measured by value) by one or more "5-percent shareholders" (as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code) has increased by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage owned by such shareholders at any time during the prior three years (calculated on a rolling basis). An entity that experiences an ownership change generally will be subject to an annual limitation on its utilization of pre-ownership change tax loss and credit carryforwards equal to the equity value of the corporation immediately before the ownership change, multiplied by the long-term tax-exempt rate posted monthly by the Internal Revenue Service (AFR) (subject to certain adjustments). The annual limitation would be increased each year to the extent that there is an unused limitation in a prior year. The limitation on our ability to utilize tax loss and credit carryforwards arising from an ownership change under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code would be dependent on the value of our equity and the AFR at the time of any ownership change. If we were to experience an "ownership change," it is possible that a significant portion of our tax loss carryforwards could expire before we are able to use them to offset future taxable income.
