Allianz Real Estate: Allianz Approach to ESG 2021

It is Allianz Real Estate’s view that ESG issues, such as climate change, are increasingly impacting the fundamentals of the real estate markets worldwide. As such, Allianz Real Estate believes that ESG needs to be integrated within its business, from the investment processes through to the way it interacts with tenants.

This document, which is based on the Allianz Real Estate ESG Group Policy, outlines its approach to integrating ESG considerations into the business processes within our investment approach. It applies to all areas of our investment activity – equity and debt, directly held and indirect – and has been adopted by all branches and hubs of Allianz Real Estate around the world. Approved by the Allianz Real Estate Executive Committee, the policy has been developed in conjunction with Allianz Climate Solutions but does not influence the own-use real estate managed by other entities within the Allianz Group. It follows Allianz’s holistic approach to the integration of corporate responsibility and particularly ESG criteria into business, which is recorded in the Allianz Group standards and governance records.
