  It didn't take long after Wa! rren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-A  ) (NYSE: BRK-B  ) welcomed four former AIG (NYSE: AIG  ) executives into the fold that it introduced a new, specialty insurance arm to the world.

  American International Group (NYSE: AIG  ) has recently spent close to $600 million expanding its presence in China in a joint venture with the PICC Group, initiated in the fourth quarter of 2012. The company reported a 10% return in the first quarter from its investment and re-upped its involvement. But due to the rapid expansion plan, investors might be a bit concerned this morning, sending the insurer down 4.2% so far in trading. AIG's plan in China hinges on the continued growth of the emerging middle class and discretionary income for both insurance and retirement products and services. If the Chinese economy slows to a crawl, the returns seen by the insurer in the first quarter may not be matched for quite a while.
