Succeeding as yourself, together

Our commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) involves making sure we have a diverse workforce, are creating an inclusive workplace and are positively contributing to our industry and wider society. In turn, these efforts enable us to become increasingly diverse, equitable and inclusive by the day.

What do we mean by DEI

In essence, inclusion is reflected in our behaviours and processes, enabling everyone to contribute their best.

Diversity – the mix of visible and invisible traits that make each individual unique, such as gender, age, disability,nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, cultural background, personality type and family status.

Equity – by allocating the necessary resources, individuals can be provided with equal opportunities to achieve the same goals, regardless of their background or circumstances.

Inclusion – the behaviours we demonstrate and the processes we use to enable everyone to give their best. Our inclusive culture embraces and values our differences. It also encourages us to feel free to be who we truly are.

Our DEI strategy

Our DEI strategy applies to all aspects of diversity, emphasising gender balance, disability, neurodiversity, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Recognising that we embody a combination of these traits, we prioritise an intersectional approach, addressing diversity challenges holistically for lasting progress. Alongside increasing minority representation, we are committed to fostering an equitable and inclusive workplace through fair, unbiased systems, equal access, and a supportive culture. To achieve this, our DEI strategy intentionally integrates DEI principles across everything we do, focusing on three pillars: Workforce, Workplace, and Marketplace.

Who we recruit and develop

We focus on attracting and developing diverse talent. Our hiring practices prioritise gender equality, fair pay, and providing training and mentoring to support our diverse workforce.

How it feels to work here

We strive to create an inclusive, safe and healthy hybrid workplace where all employees feel valued. Through relevant practices, policies, networks and training, we promote DEI awareness, health and wellbeing and zero tolerance for harassment.

How we serve our social purpose

We use our influence as responsible investors to drive DEI progress within the asset management sector and society. Through impact investing, active stewardship, and industry commitments, we advocate for greater diversity and gender balance in boardrooms.

Our zero tolerance towards harassment and discrimination commitment

We are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive workplace where employees feel safe, respected, and empowered. Harassment, discrimination, bullying, or abusive behaviour have no place here—our commitment is manifested in our Global Anti-Harassment and Anti-Discrimination Policy.
Together, we can create a positive, supportive environment for all.

Our “Women in Finance Charter” commitment

As a signatory to the Women in Finance Charter, we are committed to supporting the progression of women into senior roles in the financial services sector and to reporting publicly on the progress made against internal ambitions on gender equality.

Our ambition is to have at least 30% women in global senior management positions by end of 2024:

50% of our ExCo are women (50% in 2023)
42% of our workforce are women (43% in 2023)
30% of our Managing Directors are women (26% in 2023)

As at 31.12.2024
New ambitions will be set from 2025 onwards, reflecting our continued commitment to working for more balanced gender representation.

We are stronger together

Our Employee Networks are voluntary, employee-led groups that serve as valuable resources for their members as well as the company. These networks have a clear purpose, structure, sponsorship, and agenda aligned with HR, our DEI strategy, and the company’s business goals. At AllianzGI, we support DEI-specific Global Employee Networks as well as locally anchored Local Engagement Groups.

NEO
the network aims to challenge limiting gender stereotypes that prevent colleagues from unlocking their full potential.
GRACE
represents the interests of our cultural and ethnically diverse workforce through innovation, cooperation, mentoring and education, creating an inclusive and equal work culture across our locations.
PRIDE
provides a platform for LGBTQ+ and their supporters, raises awareness of LGBTQ+ topics, promotes mutual respect, establishes a network of experts for LGBTQ+ topics, and positions us as an employer of choice for LGBTQ+ talent.
BEYOND
acts as an insightful resource for raising awareness about living with disabilities and how we can remove barriers and create an inclusive working environment for colleagues with disabilities.
ENGAGE
connects people of all ages to create an environment that values and promotes the contributions of different generations. By raising awareness of the benefits of age inclusion, ENGAGE fosters opportunities for individuals from various age groups and life stages to come together, share experiences and knowledge, appreciate diverse perspectives, and celebrate commonalities.

The initiatives we support

Our partnerships and commitments, such as signing the UK Government's Women in Finance Charter and LGBTI UN Standards of Conduct,
underscore our dedication to meaningful DEI initiatives.
