AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL GROUP INC

Our Investment Management Agreements with Blackstone Inc.

In 2021, AIG entered into a long-term asset management relationship with Blackstone Inc. and its investment advisory affiliates (Blackstone), pursuant to which Blackstone initially managed $50 billion of Corebridge’s existing investment portfolio, with that amount increasing to an aggregate of $92.5 billion by the third quarter of 2027. As of December 31, 2023, Blackstone manages $55 billion in book value of assets in Corebridge's investment portfolio. As these assets run-off, we expect Blackstone to reinvest primarily in Blackstone-originated investments across a range of asset classes, including private and structured credit, and commercial and residential real estate securitized and whole loans. We continue to manage asset allocation and portfolio-level risk management decisions with respect to any assets managed by Blackstone, ensuring that we maintain a consistent level of oversight across our entire investment portfolio considering our asset-liability matching needs, risk appetite and capital positions.

Our Investment Management Agreements with BlackRock, Inc.

Since April 2022, AIG and Corebridge insurance company subsidiaries have entered into separate investment management agreements with BlackRock, Inc. and its investment advisory affiliates (BlackRock). Substantially all investment management agreements contemplated for AIG insurance company subsidiaries have been executed. A small number of insurance companies remain under discussion and expect to be resolved in 2024. As of December 31, 2023, BlackRock manages $135 billion of our investment portfolio, consisting of liquid fixed income and certain private placement assets, including $76 billion of Corebridge assets. In addition, liquid fixed income assets associated with the Fortitude Re funds withheld asset portfolio were separately transferred to BlackRock for management in 2022.

INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS IN 2023

•Blended investment yields on new investments are higher than blended rates on investments that were sold, matured or called during this period. We continued to make investments in structured securities and other fixed maturity securities with attractive risk-adjusted return characteristics to improve yields and increase net investment income.•The higher interest rate environment has contributed to higher income in the base portfolio for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. Total Net investment income increased for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher returns in our fixed maturity securities, mortgage and other loans, short-term investments and hedge fund portfolios, partially offset by lower income in our private equity portfolio.
