Genworth Financial Inc. and China Oceanwide Holdings Group Co. Ltd. say they have reached a preliminary agreement with New York state regulators over how much capital should be infused into a Genworth subsidiary in New York state.
The agreement should remove one of the remaining obstacles to efforts by China Oceanwide to acquire Genworth, Genworth and China Oceanwide said Monday.
