AIG与中国人保集团商谈成立合资企业

operation, AIG would not sell more than 25 per cent of its PICC holding without the Chinese company’s consent for five years.

AIG将旗下的一般保险业务改名为Chartis，意在重振自身声誉。在2010年金融危机最严峻时期，AIG曾令人震惊地走到倒闭边缘，被迫接受美国政府提供的1800亿美元纾困，纾困金额创下了世界纪录。

AIG renamed its general insurance business Chartis in an attempt to restore its reputation after the group’s spectacular near-collapse at the height of the financial crisis in 2010, which led to it receiving a world-record $180bn bailout from the US government.

Chartis 2011年的年报显示，目前该公司50%的业务来自美国市场，17%的业务来自欧洲市常这意味着，该公司有逾三分之二的业务位于成熟、低增长的市常

Chartis gets 50 per cent of its business from the US and a further 17 per cent from Europe, according to its 2011 annual report, meaning more than two-thirds of its operations are in mature, low-growth markets.

一般保险业务的经营状况与宏观经济形势密切相关，因为当企业活动萎缩时，其购买的保险数量也会随之缩减。因此，经济产出停滞不前或者下滑，会对Chartis这样的保险公司产生直接影响。

General insurance as a business is highly correlated with wider economic conditions because when activity at companies declines they buy less insurance, so static or declining gross domestic product has a direct impact on a group such as Chartis.
