Allianz US Private Placement Debt
The Allianz US Private Placement Debt strategy seeks to invest in the private debt issued by high quality companies and other entities.
Private placement bonds provide an investor with enhanced portfolio diversification, covenant protection, and potential spread premium to bonds available in the public markets. In addition, a broader range of longer maturities is available in the private debt markets, which may fit a client’s needs for longer-lived, income-producing investments.
The Allianz Global Investors private placement team draws upon a shared wealth and breadth of investment experience across several fixed income asset classes and market cycles: the average investment experience of the team is 20 years.*

Investing involves risk. The value of an investment and the income from it may fall as well as rise and investors might not get back the full amount invested.
Investing in fixed income instruments may expose investors to various risks, including but not limited to creditworthiness, interest rate, liquidity and restricted flexibility risks. Changes to the economic environment and market conditions may affect these risks, resulting in an adverse effect to the value of the investment. During periods of rising nominal interest rates, the values of fixed income instruments (including short positions with respect to fixed income instruments) are generally expected to decline. Conversely, during periods of declining interest rates, the values of these instruments are generally expected to rise. Liquidity risk may possibly delay or prevent account withdrawals or redemptions.
Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. If the currency in which the past performance is displayed differs from the currency of the country in which the investor resides, then the investor should be aware that due to the exchange rate fluctuations the performance shown may be higher or lower if converted into the investor’s local currency.
