(“AIG”), a leading international insurance and financial organization with approximately 63,000 employees serving customers in more than 130 countries. Travel Guard content is accessible in the .COM gTLD, as well as a multitude of ccTLDs.
Through a unified corporate approach, AIG intends to submit three gTLD applications for the .AIG, .CHARTIS, and .TRAVELGUARD strings.
