Sep. 15, 2008. Nation's largest insurer hit by credit raters as it tries to raise cash. Fed asks Goldman and JPMorgan Chase to raise $70 billion for firm. Shares end down 61%. ------------- The pressure on American International Group reached fevered pitch on Monday night as the troubled insurer was hit by a series of credit rating downgrades. The cuts could prove deadly to AIG, the nation's largest insurance company, which is scrambling to raise much-needed capital. Late Monday night, Moody's Investors Service and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services each said they had lowered their ratings. A few hours earlier, Fitch Rating had also downgraded AIG, saying the company's ability to raise cash is "extremely limited" because of its plummeting stock price, widening yields on it...

"Officials from credit rating agency Best Co. announced Thursday that American International Group, Inc.'s (NYSE:AIG) issuer credit rating holds steady at 'bbb,' as the insurance giant hashes out plans to repay the US government.

With the removal of this support, AIG will need to stand on its own, re-establish itself in the capital markets, restore shareholder confidence (particularly with institutional investors) and demonstrate its ability to maintain su...

Geithner had the authority to decide what to do with the second tranche of $350 billion from the $700 billion banking bailout bill passed by Congress in October 2008. He was not mandated to seek Congressional approval, but went to Congress on February 10--11, 2009 to explain his plans. Under the Financial Stability Plan, he proposed to create a new investment fund to provide a market for the legacy loans and securities -- the so-called "toxic assets"—burdening the financial system, using a mix of taxpayer and private money. He also proposed to expand a lending program that would spend as much as $1 trillion to cover the decline in the issuance of securities backed by consumer loans. He further proposed to give banks new infusions of capital with which to lend. In exchange, banks would have...

This is the first installment of a DVD that was created by my father Lauren Asplund to document and commemorate a group of Americans who went to Tehran, Iran to work for a subsidiary of AT &T; called American Bell International Inc. Though some of the pictures are grainy, it is a terrific depiction of our time spent in a wonderful country. Can't figure out how to put the whole DVD on here, so it will be in 4 installments. I hope others find their own memories while viewing this DVD and that those who weren't there with us, gain an understanding and appreciation of the culture and friendliness of the Iranian People.
