Benmosche: AIG No Longer Beholden to US Government

"We have actually turned the corner and our crisis is over" and American International Group (NYSE:

) is no longer beholden to the U.S. government, CEO Robert Benmosche told CNBC Thursday. AIG sold 100 million shares during its most recent stock offering and that "everything else the government is owed is from collateralized portfolios and common stock. We're done." The company received a $182 billion bailout from the Treasury Department during the financial crisis and the agency still owns a majority of AIG shares.
