to boost fund

"Genjot" means "intensify to get higher result".
I think the word "boost" represents the best meaning for this.

has raised/earned

from 'menggenjot'
The sentence is a translation of a report that appears at http://www.financeenquiry.com/usd-6-billion-raised-by-aig-ra...
The web address uses the term 'has raised' (which I think is more precise), while the corresponding sentence uses the term 'has earned'.
Example sentence:

American International Group (NYSE: AIG) has earned approximately USD6 billion through the sale of its stake in AIA Group stake in a deal that was priced at the lowermost of the bailed-out US insurer's own expectations.

neutral ErichEko ⟹⭐ : I guess they just "berniat" (intending), not yet successful in this effort. Should be "wanted to raise" or something of the same effect.
