Market Risk Management
Market risk is defined as the risk of adverse impact due to systemic movements in one or more of the following market risk drivers: interest rates, credit spreads, foreign exchange, equity and commodity prices, residential and commercial real estate values, inflation, and their respective levels of uncertainty. It can also be brought on by political turmoil, natural disasters, and terrorist attacks. We are exposed to market risks primarily within our insurance and capital markets activities, on both the asset and the liability sides of our balance sheet through on- and off-balance sheet exposures.
Market risk is overseen at the corporate level within ERM through the CRO. Market risk is managed by our finance, treasury and investment management corporate functions, collectively, and in partnership with ERM. The scope and magnitude of our market risk exposures is monitored through multiple lenses that include economic, GAAP and statutory reporting frameworks at various levels of business consolidation, in a manner consistent with our risk appetite statement. This process aims to establish a comprehensive coverage of potential implications from adverse market risk developments. We use a number of approaches to measure market risk exposure including sensitivity analysis, scenario analysis and stress testing.
Market Risk Sensitivities
Most of our fixed income portfolio is reported as available-for-sale. Therefore, fair value changes will have a direct impact on Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (AOCI), but do not impact our net investment income revenue unless the assets are sold. Our short-term and long-term debt is reported at amortized cost and thus changes in interest rates do not impact the debt values reported on our financial statements. Their fair value, however, is sensitive to interest rates.
The following table provides estimates of sensitivity to changes in yield curves, equity prices and foreign exchange (FX) rates on our financial instruments. We aim to manage interest rate exposure of the investment portfolio such that valuation changes from interest rates are partially offset by changes in the economic value of insurance reserves. These exposures are regularly reviewed as part of AIG’s governance structure and limits are set accordingly. The table excludes $3.1 billion of interest rate sensitive assets supporting the Fortitude Re funds withheld arrangements as the contractual returns related to the assets are transferred to Fortitude Re, as well as $3.2 billion of related funds withheld payables.

(a)The economic effect is the difference between the estimated fair value with and without a 100 bps parallel increase in all yield curves. The estimated fair values for Mortgage and other loans receivable and Long-term debt, excluding assets supporting Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, were $2.8 billion and $8.2 billion at December 31, 2024, respectively. The estimated fair values for Mortgage and other loans receivable and Long-term debt, excluding assets supporting Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, were $4.1 billion and $9.6 billion at December 31, 2023, respectively.
(b)At December 31, 2024, $568 million of Fixed maturity securities and $492 million of Mortgage and other loans receivable were excluded due to modeling limitations. At December 31, 2023, this amount was $566 million for Fixed maturity securities and $459 million for Mortgage and other loans receivable.
(c)At December 31, 2024 and 2023 the analysis excluded $239 million and $267 million, respectively, of AIG Japan Holdings Kabushiki Kaisha loans.
(d)Most of the foreign currency exposure is reported on a one quarter lag. Foreign currency-denominated net asset position reflects our aggregated non-U.S. dollar assets less our aggregated non-U.S. dollar liabilities on a GAAP basis.
Interest rate sensitivity is defined as the change in value with respect to a 100 basis point parallel shift up in the interest rate environment, calculated as: scenario value minus base value, where base value is the value under the yield curves as of the period end and scenario value is the value reflecting a 100 basis point parallel increase in all yield curves. The hypothetical change is assumed to be instantaneous. This therefore also assumes that the interest rate risk profile of the company remains constant and doesn't reflect the impact of any potential portfolio duration repositioning while interest rates rise.
As a global company, AIG conducts business in multiple currencies. In general, we aim to match liabilities with assets of the same currency. For regulated insurance subsidiaries, we also try to mitigate statutory surplus or capital injection risk and capital surplus volatility in accordance with the entity’s statutory accounting framework. This often requires us to allocate capital in the liability’s currency mix or the functional currency of the entity. Derivatives may also be used.
