This is a very exciting time at AIG, and she will play an important role in telling the story of the company’s next chapter."

Williamson commented: "I am pleased to join this great organisation and to have a role in making AIG better than it has ever been. I look forward to working with Cindy and my new colleagues throughout the organisation to foster a fluid and multi-directional communications environment, one that advances the corporate strategy while also making the employee experience more engaging and professionally fulfilling."
