AIG Europe S.A. (formerly AIG Europe Limited, organizační složka pro Českou republiku) · Czech Republic
Overview
AIG entered the Czech market in 1992 as První americko-česká pojišťovna, a.s., later operating as AIG Czech Republic, AIG Europe/Chartis Europe and AIG Europe Limited. Historically it focused on industrial, commercial property, liability, financial lines (including D&O and cyber), travel and personal-lines insurance in the Czech Republic. In 2016 AIG agreed to sell the renewal rights, operating assets and employees of its Czech local business to Canada's Fairfax Financial Holdings, with administration transferred to Colonnade Insurance S.A. from 1 May 2017. Following Brexit, AIG's European business was restructured from the UK-based AIG Europe Limited into the Luxembourg-domiciled AIG Europe S.A., which continues to provide certain commercial/corporate insurance (e.g. multinational programmes, D&O, cyber) into Czechia, largely on a freedom-of-services cross-border basis rather than through a full local branch.

AIG's original Czech branch (AIG Europe Limited, organizační složka pro Českou republiku, IČO 24232777) sold its local retail/commercial insurance book to Fairfax's Colonnade Insurance in 2016-2017, transferring policies, operating assets and staff. The UK-regulated AIG Europe Limited branch for the Czech Republic was recorded as inactive from 3 December 2018 following the post-Brexit reorganisation of AIG's European operations into the Luxembourg entity AIG Europe S.A. Current ČNB financial-market registers list 'AIG EUROPE S.A.' (and its branches in other EU states) as a foreign insurer providing cross-border services in Czechia, rather than as a locally licensed branch.
