Nov. 18 (Bloomberg) -- New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo sent a letter to American International Group Inc. seeking information on any executive bonuses or salary increases the insurance company plans on paying out at year’s end.
In a letter today to AIG Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Edward Liddy, Cuomo asked the New York-based company to be “completely transparent,” noting that AIG has received $150 billion in federal “rescue financing,” according to a copy of the letter provided by Cuomo’s office.

NEW YORK, Nov 18 (Reuters) - New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo warned American International Group Inc (AIG.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) on Tuesday of "significant legal ramifications" over executive bonuses as part of his drive to force rescued firms to drop year-end payments.
"Please inform my office as soon as possible what AIG plans to do with respect to executive bonuses and pay raises this year," Cuomo wrote in a letter to AIG Chief Executive Officer Michael Liddy. "As you know, I believe AIG's decision has significant legal ramifications."
An AIG spokesman was not immediately available for comment.
Public outrage over lavish banker pay has prompted Goldman Sachs (GS.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) and UBS (UBSN.VX: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) to announce their executives would not be receiving year-end bonuses.
Bonuses have been strongly criticized as U.S. taxpayers, suffering the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, question the U.S. Treasury Department's $700 billion bailout of the industry that played a large role in creating the crisis.
Cuomo and California Congressman Henry Waxman are investigating executive pay, putting pressure on firms over their policies of paying out millions of dollars in bonuses to executives each year.
In his letter to Liddy, Cuomo said, "it seems hard to imagine that AIG could pay significant bonuses or give raises to its executives after the company has quite literally been bailed out by the American taxpayer."
Cuomo said in a statement on Monday that it was time for the rest of Wall Street "to look in the mirror" and follow UBS and Goldman Sachs. He said Citigroup (C.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz), which is cutting 52,000 jobs, should announce quickly that top executives will not receive bonuses.
Earlier in November, the U.S. government invested $125 billion in Goldman, Citigroup and seven other large U.S banks. Companies receiving funds agreed to restrictions on executive compensation.
Compensation for executives below the very top level is not disclosed, but banks are expected to cut their bonuses by 50 to 70 percent compared with last year. (Additional reporting by Joseph Giannone; Editing by Bernard Orr)

"$$1,85 ich glaub wir rocken sie alle!!! " :D
By Hugh Son Nov. 18 (Bloomberg) -- American International Group Inc., the insurer bailed out by the U.S., hasn't paid Chief Executive Officer Edward Liddy a salary since he was appointed by the government in September. ``Mr. Liddy's compensation has not yet been determined by the board, and to date he's been working without compensation,'' said Nicholas Ashooh, a spokesman for New York-based AIG, in an interview today. ``You could say it's been both thankless and payless so far.'' Ashooh said he didn't know when the board would set Liddy's pay. Liddy, former CEO of Allstate Corp., last week won lower rates and a longer duration for the U.S. loan that spared AIG from bankruptcy. The company, whose bailout expanded to more than $150 billion, has agreed to halt severance payments to executives including former CEO Martin Sullivan and canceled most of its planned conferences. New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo demanded to know how much AIG would pay in employee bonuses and raises this year. It is ``hard to imagine'' that AIG would pay significant bonuses after taxpayers rescued the firm, Cuomo said in a letter dated today. He told AIG that its compensation decisions had ``significant legal ramifications.'' Goldman Sachs Group Inc. became the first U.S. bank to forgo bonuses for top executives yesterday amid scrutiny from lawmakers after the government passed a $700 billion rescue plan for the industry. Cuomo lauded Goldman yesterday and urged AIG to follow. Sullivan, Bensinger AIG agreed with Cuomo last month to freeze $19 million in compensation owed to Sullivan, who was ousted in June after record losses tied to the subprime mortgage market collapse. The insurer also withheld a $10 million severance payment to ex-Chief Financial Officer Steven Bensinger and $600 million in compensation to employees in a financial products unit that caused much of AIG's losses. Representative Elijah Cummings called for Liddy, 62, to resign last week after news of a conference at a Phoenix resort surfaced. AIG was rebuked by lawmakers in Oct. 7 hearings for a $440,000 conference held at a California resort in September just days after the company's original $85 billion bailout. Liddy's predecessor, Robert Willumstad, rejected a $22 million severance package after leaving AIG in September. Willumstad, 63, had to step down as one of the conditions for AIG to receive government help. AIG has posted about $43 billion in four straight quarterly losses tied to home mortgages. Liddy's plan to repay the original $85 billion loan by selling units stalled as plunging financial markets hobbled potential buyers, prompting the expanded bailout.

Paulson: Finanzsystem stabilisiert - Rettungsstrategie verteidigt
Das US-Finanzsystem ist nach den Worten von Finanzminister Henry Paulson stabilisiert. Damit sei das erste große Ziel des 700-Milliarden-Dollar-Rettungsprogramms erreicht worden.
Es bleibe aber noch viel zu tun, sagte Paulson am Dienstag (18.11.2008) vor dem Finanzausschuss des Abgeordnetenhauses in Washington. In der Anhörung bekräftigte Paulson auch, dass er die noch im Fonds verbliebenen 410 Milliarden Dollar nur dann antasten wolle, wenn es absolut notwendig sei. Er wolle damit der künftigen Regierung unter dem Demokraten Barack Obama "Flexibilität" bewahren, erklärte der Minister.
Kurswechsel in der Krisenbekämpfung
Paulson verteidigte vor dem Finanzausschuss sein bisheriges Management des Rettungsfonds. Sein Abrücken vom ursprünglichen Plan, so genannte faule Kredite und notleidende Vermögenswerte der Banken aufzukaufen, begründete er damit, dass die globale Finanzmarktkrise zurzeit der Verabschiedung des Rettungspakets im Kongress Anfang Oktober schon zu weit fortgeschritten gewesen sei. Er sei zu dem Schluss gekommen, dass die Kreditübernahme "nicht effektiv und schnell genug sein würde". Deshalb sei er auf ein Programm der direkten Kapitalspritzen für die bedrängten Banken umgeschwenkt. Er habe vor, ein Kreditaufkauf-Programm folgen zu lassen.
Am Montag hatte die US-Regierung den rund 3800 kleineren privaten Geldinstituten des Landes eine Frist bis zum 8. Dezember zur Beantragung staatlicher Unterstützung aus dem 700-Milliarden-Dollar-Paket gesetzt. Für Großbanken war diese Frist bereits am 14. November abgelaufen. Bislang sind für den Bankensektor 250 Milliarden Dollar vorgesehen, weitere 40 Milliarden soll die angeschlagene Versicherung AIG erhalten. (mas)
Na also, dann wünsche ich uns allen morgen einen guten Start, frei nach dem Motto "Bei Stolle u. Tee steigt die AIG", gell Ananas ;-)
Doch insgesamt hat sich die Lage um Aig. herum beruhigt , sind wohl nur noch kleinere Waldbrände zu löschen ( Boni zum Jahresende usw. ) alles mehr oder weniger Interner.
Bin gespannt ob wir soetwas wie ne Jahresendrallye kriegen, und ob die 3 Euro zum Jahresende dann stehen, na gut, ich würde es begrüßen.
War auch gestern etwas fremdgegangen, wie Nuss, habe zwar keine 100 Peozent geschaft 8 um so älter ich werde um so mehr schwitze ich) aber wie ich vor Wochen schon schrieb, wenn man Zeit hat kann man auch in diesen Zeiten gutes Geld machen und gerade jetzt.
Doch bei meinen Posting vor Wochen wurde ich bestimmt belächelt,---mit 1000 Euro --jährlich 100%,----in 10 Jahre 1 Millionen, und dabei bleibe ich.
Auch AIG. wird uns noch 100 % bringen.
Der Inhalt würde mich schon interessieren, vielleicht hat ein anderer User aus einen anderen Portal zugang?

Wirtschaftskrise. Eigentlich dürfte man nichts kaufen!
