Since last fall, there have been a number of external voices clamoring to be heard, and some have raised doubts about our outlook. We will no doubt continue to hear more noise in the next few days.
This past week, the AIG Board and the Executive Leadership Team met, and we are aligned on our strategy. Together, we are confident that our future is sound, and that we’ve developed a prudent, insightful plan that will help drive shareholder value and address many of the external concerns.
The most important thing to remember is the essential role that each of you has played, and will play, in our progress. All of you across the globe are the reason our clients believe that AIG is their most valued insurer – and they are right.
As previously announced, I will update all of you and our investors on this strategy on Tuesday, January 26.
At this critical time, we need to stay focused and continue to execute on our priorities. We have always met our challenges head-on, and I know that together we will meet this one as well.
