$$$ Insurers American International Group Inc. and Berkshire Hathaway are in a clash for talent as Warren Buffett's conglomerate pushes into a lucrative corner of the commercial market dominated by AIG. The "war," as one person familiar with the matter called it, broke out in April when Berkshire hired four senior AIG executives to start a new commercial-insurance unit that now competes with one of AIG's most-profitable businesses. Berkshire's fledgling operation has expanded to 62 employees, including about 15 additional hires from AIG. The poaching irritated AIG's top executives, and the company threatened to sue Berkshire, according to people familiar with the matter. [WSJ]
