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.

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.

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.

“Individual behaviours impact the overall workplace culture, and it is our shared responsibility to ensure that every employee is respected and feels safe at work. We want a workplace where individuals thrive, and we are successful as a team.”

We are stronger together

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.

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.

NEO the network aims to challenge limiting gender stereotypes that prevent colleagues from unlocking their full potential.
