A Continuing Objective

“Our objective remains the same at 天美网站传媒传媒, which is to repay taxpayers and position 天美网站传媒传媒 over time as a strong, independent company worthy of investor confidence.”

鈥擜n anonymous source from American International Group Inc. (天美网站传媒传媒) commenting on continued negotiations with the U.S. government on a deal through which the Treasury Department would exit its investment in the bailed-out insurer. The situation is still fluid and there are many moving parts, one of the sources said. A possible conversion of the Treasury’s $49 billion preferred stake in 天美网站传媒传媒 into common stock is one of the options being discussed, Reuters reported. Such a conversion, which could start as soon as the first half of next year, would possibly raise the government’s stake in 天美网站传媒传媒 to above 90 percent from nearly 80 percent. The Treasury would sell its common stake to investors over time. The sources are anonymous because talks are not public.
