    AMERICAN International Group (AIG) said on Wednesday (Dec 14) its subsidiary, AIG Financial Products (FP), had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

    The filing concludes a process that has been ongoing since the 2008 financial crisis, the insurer said, adding it will not have a material impact on its balance sheet or that of recently listed life and retirement insurer Corebridge Financial.

    Connecticut-based FP has no material operations or businesses and no employees.
