American International Group Inc., the insurance giant whose near-collapse last year prompted a massive federal bailout, posted its second consecutive quarterly profit, thanks in part to rebounding credit markets.

But in a statement, Chief Executive Robert Benmosche warned that the company’s results would remain volatile.
