Anyone who reaches, exceeds or falls below 3%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 50% or 75% of the voting rights in a domestic issuer through acquisition, sale or in any other way is obliged to notify the issuer and the Federal Financial Services Agency (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht - BaFin) in accordance with the EU Transparency Directive. The notification must be made immediately, at the latest within four trading days.
In accordance with the EU Transparency Directive, the notification obligation also covers financial instruments that allow their direct or indirect holder, either in de facto or financial terms, to acquire shares carrying voting rights issued by a listed issuer.
Allianz SE is also obliged to publish the notifications relating to voting rights. We publish these notifications via EQS Group AG. The latest announcements can be found here:
