By GlobalDataIn May 2024, AIG reached an agreement to divest a 20% ownership stake in Corebridge Financial to Japan’s Nippon Life Insurance Company (Nippon Life).
The deal, valued at an aggregate purchase price of $3.8bn (Y595bn), will see AIG selling 120 million shares of Corebridge at $31.47 per share.
Under the terms of the deal, AIG will retain a 9.9% stake in Corebridge for at least two years following the conclusion of the transaction.
Prior to this deal, AIG held nearly a 53% stake in the company.
The transaction is part of AIG’s broader strategy to decrease its investment in Corebridge, which it had spun off in a 2022 initial public offering.
