New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo says 15
employees who received some of the largest bonuses from American
International Group have agreed to return the money in full.
The commitments amount to more than $30 million of the $165
million in bonuses awarded earlier this month by the troubled
insurer.
Cuomo says he still hopes that more AIG employees will return
their bonuses. He expects his office will be able to recoup roughly
$80 million of the money the insurer paid out.
Last week, AIG's CEO, Edward Liddy, told Congress that some of
the employees were going to give the money back. AIG has come under
heavy criticism because the bonuses were given to employees after
the company received $170 billion in government bailout money.
