Kuwait's sovereign-wealth fund is one of the cornerstone investors in AIA, which AIG is listing to help repay U.S. taxpayers after a huge government bailout in 2008.
AIA is slated to list in Hong Kong on Oct. 29, with the roadshow set to begin Tuesday, and pricing on Oct. 21. It began pre-marketing the deal, in which no new shares will be issued, on Sept. 27.
