Driving innovation and change

Our history

Allianz Global Investors was established as a dedicated asset management business in 1998. Since then, we’ve grown into one of the world’s leading active asset managers. Our focus on clients – whom we consider our investment partners – has been the guiding principle throughout the major phases of our history.

Allianz Global Investors today

Globally integrated asset manager

Today, we’re a globally integrated asset manager with a single management structure – an evolution led by our clients’ and changing needs.

2018

Extending our expertise

Rogge Global Partners was acquired to grow global fixed income money management capabilities.

1999

Active sustainability shaper

As an active sustainability shaper since 20021, we’ve extended our environmental, social and governance (ESG) capabilities – including the ongoing integration of ESG factors across all our mainstream strategies.

How we built our business

AllianzGI has established strong, fast-growing alternatives alongside its equity, fixed income and multi-asset capabilities.

Client-focused by design

In 2011, following a shift in client demand towards more holistic solutions, two separate asset management businesses – Allianz Global Investors and PIMCO, both owned by Allianz – emerged out of the previous multi-boutique structure.

2004

One business. One name.

The combined asset management business of Dresdner Asset Management Group, Dresdner RCM Global Investors and the Allianz Group adopted the Allianz Global Investors name in 2004.

2001

Acquisition of Dresdner Bank and PIMCO Group

Allianz acquired Dresdner Bank in 2001, bringing Dresdner Asset Management Group, including Dresdner RCM Global Investors, into the asset management business.

The acquisition of the PIMCO Group, incorporating NFJ Investment Group and Oppenheimer Capital, took place in 2000 and was followed by the acquisition of Nicholas-Applegate Capital Management in 2001.
