Reporting channels at Allianz

At Allianz, we act with integrity and are committed to complying with laws, regulations and internal rules that govern our operations and our business relationships. Our purpose – “We secure your future” – commits us to long-term thinking and sustainable actions.

If you have information regarding potential violations of laws, regulations, or internal policies by an employee, an entity of the Allianz Group, or any of its suppliers, Allianz strongly encourages you to report this matter to us.

With the Allianz Whistleblowing Tool, we offer a straightforward and secure channel for reporting concerns. The tool is designed to help protect your identity. All reported incidents are handled impartially and effectively by our independent examiners, ensuring a thorough and fair review process. 

Your report enables us to address potential violations, provide support to those affected, and enhance our preventive measures. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in mitigating the risks of future misconduct. 

  • fraud, theft or corruption 
  • antitrust violations and potential conflict of interest
  • financial irregularities or breaches of accounting or tax provisions
  • discrimination, harassment, harmful working conditions and other breaches of human rights
  • severe environmental damage
To learn more about the standards applicable to both Allianz and our suppliers, please refer to:

Our Allianz Whistleblowing Tool, along with other reporting channels, is accessible to all individuals working for Allianz or its suppliers. It is also available to anyone, whether within or outside Allianz, who possesses information regarding potential or actual misconduct related to an employee, to any entity of the Allianz Group or their suppliers.

You are encouraged to report an incident even if you are not directly affected by it. If you have been personally impacted, you may also request someone else to submit a report on your behalf.

You can submit reports either anonymously or by voluntarily disclosing your identity.

Regardless of the reporting channel you choose—whether via the Allianz Whistleblowing Tool, email, letter, or in person—your concern will be handled with the highest level of diligence and confidentiality.

For detailed information, please refer to the applicable Verfahrensordnung (Allianz Whistleblowing Tool Rules of Procedure) which has been developed in alignment with the Allianz Human Rights Officer.

Allianz Whistleblowing Tool Rules of Procedure

Allianz maintains a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of retaliation against individuals who report an incident in good faith. "Good faith" means that the reporting person had a reasonable belief that the information provided regarding the reported incident was accurate.

This policy applies also in cases where an investigation does not substantiate the allegations.

In the context of a reported incident, retaliation may include any action or omission that results in an unjustified disadvantage for the reporting individual. Examples of such retaliation could include:

  • HR measures (e.g., written warning, transfer to another unit/department/entity, termination, withholding of promotions)
  • Harassment or mobbing (e.g., creation of a hostile work environment, offensive and harmful behavior, intimidation of any kind, exclusion from team activities)
  • Compensation aspects (e.g., salary or bonus cuts)

If you experience any form of retaliation as a result of your report, please do not hesitate to reach out to us through the Allianz Whistleblowing Tool or via any of the other reporting channels mentioned above. 

Thank you for helping us to live up to our commitments!
