We achieved the top position of all +125 rated insurance companies in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index. Since 2000, we have been in the top field in the DJSI which assesses environmental, social and governance criteria. Our achievements in the environmental area performed particularly well, while in the social and the governance area we also raised the bar significantly higher. And we’re ready for more.

The recent U.N. Climate Conference (COP27) made it clear that to advance initiatives important to sustainable investing, a field in which we play a leading role, we need to meet the opportunities and challenges head on. Ryan Korinke, managing director and head of sustainability at PIMCO, one of the world's premier fixed income investment firm, speaks out about the way forward for sustainable fixed income investors.

We are strongly committed to the climate targets of the United Nations to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Therefore, Allianz Group is adapting its guidelines to pragmatically provide insurance and investment in renewable energy projects. The changes aim to support and speed up the transition of energy companies, particularly in Asia and Eastern Europe, where the adaptation from coal to renewables is difficult and less advanced than in Europe or the United States.

We invest and use our resources for the best possible future for our customers.
We are engaged in the communities we are in. We support social resilience for the people who live and work in the communities in which we operate. We focus especially on the support of next generations and people with disabilities.

Allianz Life US partners with people and organizations who are proactively working to lower barriers and promote economic inclusivity. We believe the best way to make a positive impact in our community is to focus on our existing areas of expertise. We support the people and organizations that are working to reduce barriers to economic inclusion at all stages of life. For Allianz, economic inclusion means that all people have their basic needs met, opportunities for gainful employment, and resources to increase their financial knowledge.

A home is a place where small changes can be a part of making a big difference. From what we eat and the energy we use, to how we manage waste or choose which household products buy.
