In addition, we would draw your attention to the fact that to ensure that AIG has the most appropriate structure from which to serve clients and partners after Brexit, AIG Europe Limited is currently undertaking a restructuring which will have the effect of transferring the Policies to the Irish branch of AIG Europe S.A., another insurance company within the AIG Group, incorporated in Luxembourg and authorised by the Luxembourg Minister of Finance and subject to the supervision of the Commissariat aux Assurances. If approved, this transfer is expected to take effect on 1 December 2018.
