In 1919, Cornelius Vander Starr stepped off a steamship in Shanghai determined to make his mark in the world. Working from a two-room office, he established American Asiatic Underwriters, an insurance agency to which we trace our roots. Starr believed in making the world a better place and with other early company pioneers, his organization grew across the world. Today, AIG is a global insurance company headquartered in New York with operations in approximately 70 countries and jurisdictions. AIG companies serve commercial, institutional, and individual customers through one of the most extensive worldwide property-casualty networks of any insurer.
