Exhibit 99.1

                       American International Group, Inc.


            STATEMENT UNDER OATH OF PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND
                PRINCIPAL FINANCIAL OFFICER REGARDING FACTS AND
                 CIRCUMSTANCES RELATING TO EXCHANGE ACT FILINGS


     I, Maurice R. Greenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of American
International Group, Inc., state and attest that:

          (1) To the best of my knowledge, based upon a review of the covered
          reports of American International Group, Inc., and, except as
          corrected or supplemented in a subsequent covered report:

               -  No covered report contained an untrue statement of a material
                  fact as of the end of the period covered by such report (or in
                  the case of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy
                  materials, as of the date on which it was filed); and

               -  No covered report omitted to state a material fact necessary
                  to make the statements in the covered report, in light of the
                  circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of
                  the end of the period covered by such report (or in the case
                  of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials, as of
                  the date on which it was filed).

          (2) I have reviewed the contents of this statement with American
          International Group, Inc.'s audit committee.

          (3) In this statement under oath, each of the following, if filed on
          or before the date of this statement, is a "covered report":

               -  The Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
                  2001, of American International Group, Inc.;

               -  All quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, all reports on Form 8-K
                  and all definitive proxy materials of American International
                  Group, Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
                  subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K identified above;
                  and

               -  Any amendments to any of the foregoing.
