So let me see. AIG announces a huge loss. AIG announces it will raise billions in new capital. AIG announces it will increase its dividend. Why would a company dilute existing shareholders by raising new capital from new shareholders in order to pay a larger dividend to existing shareholders for the use of their capital? Why not cut the dividend, or eliminate it? Wouldn't that, effectively, be a capital-raise by the amount of the cut -- but without all the transaction costs?
