Hankerin’ for a Fight

“Hank Greenberg was mad. He was angry.”

—Theodore Wells, lawyer for AIG, addressing jurors in the civil trial against ex-AIG head Maurice “Hank” Greenberg. Greenberg stands accused of plundering $4.3 billion in stock from the company in 2005 after his ouster as CEO. The shares, which had been earmarked for bonuses, were owned by the Greenberg-controlled holding company, Starr International.
