  39. Why AIG over Allianz • Poor post-recession recovery for Allianz due to European sovereign debt crisis • Uncertainty surrounding Solvency II • Solvency II, an EU directive to come into effect in 2014, forces insurance companies to rely more on assessments of credit risk by private rating agencies • It would affect European financial institutions, especially insurers

  40. Competition from Allianz • Both are also competing for the $50bn Chinese insurance market, which recently opened after China eased regulations on foreign companies • ChartisChina is the already the largest foreign property-casualty insurer in China

  41. Credit Rating for Allianz • In December 2011, S&P placed Allianz on CreditWatch due to: • Effects of exposure to euro zone sovereign debt • Related bank debt and deposits • The impact of the expected slowdown in Europe • This would lower the returns from Allianz in light of Solvency II’s policies

  42. AIG v. AZSEY

  43. Why AIG over AXA? • Similar to Allianz, it is based in Europe and will be affected by Solvency II • The outlook for the Paris-based company was cut from stable on negative by Fitch • Competition from AXA • AXA put forward a bid in 2008 to buy AIG’s life-insurance unit, though the deal did not go through
