Allianz Group's Consolidated Results of Operations

In the third quarter 2009, we generated total revenues of € 22,020 million. On an internal basis1), growth amounted to 5.2 %. All business segments contributed positively to operating profit which increased by 23.4 % to € 1,929 million. At € 1,323 million, net income from continuing operations improved significantly. Since there are no further results from discontinued operations, total net income was also € 1,323 million.

Total revenues 2)

Total revenues

in � bn

Our Life/Health business delivered the main growth impulse. Furthermore, the revenue development within the Financial Services segment improved, entirely driven by our Asset Management operations. In Property-Casualty premiums reduced compared to the third quarter of 2008.

Total revenues – Segments

Property-Casualty Life/Health

Financial Services

Gross premiums written from Property-Casualty insurance amounted to € 10,232 million. Adjusted for foreign currency and consolidation effects, revenues declined by 2.4 %. We achieved a positive price impact on revenues despite soft markets. However, our disciplined risk selection led to lower overall premium volumes.

Our Life/Health insurance operations benefited from continuing strong demand for products with minimum guarantees and participating components in the third quarter. Statutory premiums amounted to € 10,788 million. On an internal basis premiums increased by 13.5 %.

1) Internal total revenue growth excludes the effects of foreign currency translation as well as acquisitions and disposals. Please refer to page 39 for a detailed reconciliation of nominal total revenue growth to internal total revenue growth for each of our segments and the Allianz Group as a whole.

2) Total revenues comprise Property-Casualty segment's gross premiums written, Life/ Health segment's statutory premiums and Financial Services segment's operating revenues.

3) Total revenues include € (58) mn, € 9 mn and € 25 mn from consolidation for 3Q 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

In the Financial Services segment we profited from the recovery of the financial markets. Revenues amounted to € 1,058 million. Higher fee and commission income from the Asset Management business increased the segment's quarterly revenues by 14.0 % on an internal basis.

In the quarter under review, operating profit of € 1,929 million was up 23.4 % compared to the third quarter 2008 and 8.0 % versus the second quarter 2009. Considerable profit increases in Life/Health and Financial Services outweighed a decline in operating profit from our Property-Casualty insurance. However, part of this improvement has to be seen as a recovery from the financial market crisis which hit us severely in the third quarter 2008.

Operating profit from the Property-Casualty business dropped by 18.2 % to € 1,031 million in the third quarter mainly driven by lower interest and similar income.

In the third quarter, improved conditions on the capital markets increased the investment performance of our Life/ Health segment which suffered heavily from the financial market crisis last year. Operating profit increased by € 641 million to € 859 million.

In our Financial Services segment we doubled operating profit to € 332 million on a quarter-over-quarter basis. Driven by higher management and performance fees and an increase in seed money profitability from our Asset Management business. In addition, we recorded strong inflows to assets under management and a top of the industry costincome ratio of 59.2 %.

The aggregate operating loss from Corporate activities amounted to € 258 million. The additional loss of € 208 million compared to the third quarter 2008 was driven by a lower net interest result and a lower foreign currency result.

1) Operating profit includes € (35) mn, € (33) mn and € 16 mn from consolidation for 3Q 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Non-operating result

Non-operating items had a much smaller impact on our results in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter 2008. The non-operating loss was reduced from € 736 million to € 92 million. Realized gains decreased by 37.7 % to € 322 million as we had benefited from closed forward sales in the prior year's quarter. Lower net impairments, down by € 875 million to € 46 million following the capital market recovery, made by far the biggest contribution to the improved result.

Net income

Due to the completion of the sale of Dresdner Bank there are no further results from discontinued operations. Thus, we achieved net income for the third quarter 2009 of € 1,323 million compared to a net loss of € 2,023 million, stemming from the sale of Dresdner Bank, in the respective quarter of 2008. The effective tax rate was down by 2.9 percentage points to 27.1% mainly due to tax exempt income.

Earnings per share 1)

in �

Our net income translated into basic earnings per share of € 2.94 and diluted earnings per share of € 2.94 for the third quarter of 2009.

Shareholders' equity

Shareholders' equity 2) in � mn

Shareholders' equity amounted to € 39,352 million as of September 30, 2009, up 16.8 % compared to year-end 2008. Net income and unrealized gains increased our equity by € 3,221 million and € 4,054 million respectively. The dividend payment in the second quarter reduced equity by € 1,580 million.

Conglomerate solvency

in € bn

Available Funds

2) Does not include minority interests.

3) Available funds and requirement as of December 31, 2008 including discontinued operations were adjusted to reflect the pro-forma view. For example, we removed hybrid capital related to Dresdner Bank from available funds and adjusted the deduction of goodwill and other intangible assets. Furthermore, we deleted the requirement of our discontinued operations.

As of September 30, 2009 our available funds for the solvency margin, required for our insurance segments and our banking and asset management business were € 34.3 billion including off-balance sheet reserves, surpassing the minimum legally stipulated level by € 13.4 billion. This margin resulted in a cover ratio of 164%1) at September 30, 2009. Our solvency position therefore remains strong.

2009 to 2008 nine months comparison

We recorded revenues of € 71,919 million for the first nine months of 2009, up € 2,331 million on the respective prior year period. Adjusted for foreign currency and consolidation effects, growth was 2.5 %. The growth contribution from Life/Health compensated for the decline from Property-Casualty and Financial Services.

Operating profit decreased by 20.4 % to € 5,134 million. The strong additional profit contribution from our Life/Health segment could not make up for the decreased operating profits from Property-Casualty and Financial Services.

The non-operating loss was down by 34.3 % to € 518 million. The developments were largely consistent with the those described for the third quarter. The significant decrease in impairments, down € 882 million, more than compensated for the € 446 million lower realized gains.

Net income at € 3,221 million exceeded the prior year's result by € 2,554 million. The net loss from discontinued operations of € 3,483 million severely burdened our result in the first nine months of 2008. In the first quarter of 2009, we recorded the final loss of € 395 million from discontinued operations.

1) During the fiscal year, conglomerate solvency is partially based on assumptions. The extent to which intangible assets related to certain private equity investments are to be deducted from our own funds for the purpose of the conglomerate solvency calculation has not yet been finally agreed by BaFin.

Risk Management

Risk management is an integral part of our business processes and supports our value-based management. As our internal risk capital model provides management with information which allows for active asset-liability management and monitoring, we consider our risks to be well controlled and managed.

The information contained in the risk report in our 2008 Annual Report is still valid.

Events After the Balance Sheet Date

Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life) receives favorable decision in Mooney lawsuit

On October 12, 2009, a federal jury in Minneapolis returned a verdict in favor of our subsidiary Allianz Life in regard to a class action lawsuit titled Mooney v. Allianz Life Insurance Company. Filed more than four years ago, the case involved allegations relating to the clarity of language in some of the marketing materials relating to Allianz Life's annuity products. The Court will hear post trial motions on December 2, 2009, and the parties will have the right to appeal thereafter.

Outlook

Economic Outlook

Developments in the third quarter of 2009 confirmed the signs of a gradual economic recovery seen in the first half of the year. Stock markets rose strongly – as in the second quarter – and corporate bond spreads narrowed.

However, the improvement in the economic situation in both the industrial countries and in the emerging markets does not alter the fact that the world economy experienced the deepest recession in post-war history following the drastic escalation of the financial crisis in the fall of 2008. The global economy will shrink by around 2.3 % this year and industrial country gross domestic product is set to decrease by 3.3 %.

Recovery yes, but subdued momentum in the medium term

Economic indicators, such as those on economic sentiment and the order situation in industry, signal dynamic development at least in the short term. However, there are a number of potential negative factors hanging over the medium and long-term horizon which could cloud the economic outlook as soon as next year and thus noticeably curb global growth momentum. For instance, the need for private household and public-sector budget consolidation in many countries may slow the momentum of global demand and thus also of global trade. And the impetus from the stimulus packages will also increasingly peter out in the course of 2010.

The challenges facing economic policy in the years ahead are enormous. High public sector deficits have to be reduced and excess liquidity absorbed in a timely fashion to curb the risk of inflation. On the international stage there needs to be a high degree of cooperation to enable a sustained recovery in world trade without triggering renewed large global imbalances.

Regional economic performance

The economy of the United States will shrink by 2.5 % in 2009, a relatively modest figure bearing in mind that the U.S. was at the center of the real estate and banking crisis. We put the drop in Japanese gross domestic product at 5.7 %. Although the Japanese economy itself has been relatively untouched by the financial crisis, it has been badly hit by the slump in export demand. The same is true for Germany, where we expect economic activity to decline by 4.2 %.

The performance in the emerging markets is very uneven in 2009. Asia is set to be the sole region to record positive growth, with an increase of 4.2 %. China and India lead the way here. We estimate that output in the Eastern European countries will decrease by 6.2 %, the steepest decline of all emerging-market regions. This is due to the sizeable imbalances built up over recent years, for example in the form of substantial current account deficits and high foreign currency liabilities of the private sector. Latin America is not escaping the downturn either, we expect economic activity to shrink by 3 % in 2009.

Financial markets

The stock markets have already factored in the economic recovery to a considerable extent. Phases of high volatility remain on the cards. Too many risks still exist – both on the financial markets and on banks' books as well as in the real economy. Given the surge in public-sector debt and expansionary monetary policy, bond yields could rise significantly. However, the situation on the financial markets at the end of the third quarter is significantly better than at the beginning of the year.

Environment for financial services providers remains challenging

The still difficult situation on capital markets is a negative factor for insurers. Furthermore, Property-Casualty as well as Life insurance face markedly weaker demand due to the economic downturn with rising business insolvencies and rising unemployment. Prices are moving upward only slowly – if at all – and only in specific areas of business.

However, the underlying long-term driver for Life/Health insurance remains intact: due to demographic change, social security systems financed on a pay-as-you-go basis are not sustainable. Against the background of rising state deficits caused by the multitude of state rescue packages to dampen the impact of the current financial crisis, social security reforms already adopted might prove to be too generous in the future. Private health care and old-age provision are going to become even more important.

Outlook for the Allianz Group

Our third quarter results show that Allianz is well positioned to take advantage of an improving economic and operating environment, and has a sound platform for delivering solid earnings in our core insurance and asset accumulation businesses.

Allianz is well capitalized with a solvency ratio of 164 %, which already reflects a notional dividend accrual for the nine months 2009 of € 1.4 billion. Our solvency ratio is solidly based on a high quality investment portfolio, conservative risk appetite and active risk management program. We expect the ratio to remain within our target range.

Frequent reference has been made in this report to the impacts of recession, the risks to the recovery of the global economy, and capital market volatility. In this environment, reliable statements about future profit levels are not possible. However the following observations in the business segments can be made:

Property-Casualty

In general we see premium rates slowly hardening as we and most of our competitors apply tariff increases. However while pricing is on an upward trend, our volumes remain challenged due to weaker demand, the effects of our portfolio cleaning measures and selective underwriting.

Our major operating entities in Germany, France, Italy and in Credit Insurance experienced a multitude of negative underwriting effects from the recession and weather-related claims this year which have had a material effect on the segment combined ratio. Management views some of these effects as exceptional and unlikely to become the norm. In Italy however, the negative impacts from the Bersani regulations will continue to impact our results.

Management is focusing attention on efforts to improve productivity in the Property-Casualty business. We expect to see some benefit in 2010 from these continued efforts, but the full impacts will be realized progressively over the next three years.

As mentioned above, financial markets made a continued strong recovery in the third quarter with stock markets rising. However, as long as markets are unstable and interest rates remain low, our operating investment income is going to be affected.

Life/Health

We continue to preserve and leverage the strong fundamentals in our Life/Health operations: revenue growth at good margins, a growing asset base, and strong underlying profitability. The ongoing positive developments in the capital markets and the gradual economic recovery in the third quarter supported a strong growth in Life/Health revenues at good margins. This was reflected in increased demand for investment products with underlying guarantees or investment participation.

The narrowing of credit spreads and the recovery of the equity markets in the third quarter led to a catch-up effect in segment operating profit amounting to some € 0.1 billion after policyholder participation. We view this as non-recurring. The product re-design and re-pricing actions taken in the U. S. are resulting in a balanced and sustainable risk profile in that business, but these may have a negative impact on future growth.

The business development and results in this segment will continue to be closely linked to capital market conditions and interest rate movements.

Financial Services

In Financial Services, operating profit in our Asset Management business almost doubled, third-party assets under management grew substatially and the cost-income ratio fell below 60 %. The equities business returned to profit but will remain challenged in current market conditions, while the fixed-income business is performing extremely good and is well positioned to deliver outstanding results.

Property-Casualty Insurance Operations

  • Gross premiums written of € 10,232 million
  • Operating Profit of € 1,031 million
  • Combined Ratio of 96.9%

Earnings Summary

Gross premiums written1)

Markets remained soft and we have reinforced strict risk selection processes. Thus, despite a positive price effect of 1.0%, overall gross premiums written were down by 2.4% on an internal basis. This development was mainly driven by lower volume due to selective underwriting and recessiondriven impacts. These volume effects impacted mainly our credit insurance business (down by 24.8%) and our businesses in Germany (down by 4.8%), Italy (down by 4.7%) and France (down by 5.6%).

On a nominal basis, revenues declined 5.4% or € 584 million to € 10,232 million. The consolidation of our subsidiary in Turkey with a positive effect, the change in our Crop Insurance Program with a negative effect of € 324 million and an unfavorable foreign currency translation effect of € 47 million were the major drivers for the decline.

We analyse our property-casualty internal premium growth according to 'price' and 'volume'-effects. This produces the following combination of clusters:

Cluster 1: Price and volume effect both negative Cluster 2: Price and volume effect, either of them is negative Cluster 3: Price and volume effect both positive

1) We comment on the development of our gross premiums written on an internal basis; meaning adjusted for foreign currency translation and (de-)consolidation effects in order to provide more comparable information.

Cluster 1:

Revenues in Italy amounted to € 831 million. The internal decline in premiums was 8.4% and stemmed mainly from lower average premiums in motor business which continued to be impacted by the so called Bersani law. Our ongoing commitment to stick to our underwriting rules and active portfolio cleaning led to a decrease in volume. We estimate the negative price effect on premiums written to be 3.7%.

Based on internal growth, revenues in the United States declined by 3.5%. Premiums decreased mostly in our crop business, driven by lower commodity prices. Overall rates were still relatively low and the market remained soft. We estimate the negative price effect on premiums written to be 0.2%. On a nominal basis revenues declined by 22.6% to € 1,404 million. Due to changes in our Crop Insurance Program a proportion of the gross business that previously passed-through our books is now being passed directly from the scheme administrator to third parties. The effect on our net premiums is zero. This, together with the internal transfer of marine business to AGCS, led to the significantly lower nominal growth rate on gross premiums written.

Cluster 2:

Gross premiums written at Allianz Sach in Germany stood at € 1,904 million and thus decreased by 2.4% . This decline was driven by a reduction of volume, mainly relating to our motor business and was a result of continued portfolio cleaning, particularly in non-profitable fleet business. Rising prices in our non-motor business, mainly in accident, liability and property business, outweighed the price decline in our motor business. We estimate the positive overall price effect to be 3.2%.

Revenues in France of € 892 million were down by 3.1%. We increased prices in almost all business lines due to unsatisfactory profitability. The estimated positive price effect on premiums written was 2.4%. In a competitive market environment, we accepted the loss of some volume, which mainly affected non-motor lines.

In our credit insurance business premiums declined by 13.6% to € 380 million. The volume went down by 24.8% or € 109.2 million following the actively managed and intended drastic reduction of our exposure in high risk classes and the lower business turnover of our customers. At the same time, we increased prices on average by 14.1%.

Revenues in the United Kingdom were down to € 427 million. On an internal basis, excluding a negative foreign currency impact of € 42 million caused by a weaker Great Britain Pound, premiums went up by 5.9%. A decline in volume was mainly driven by personal lines and resulted from active portfolio cleaning to improve our profitability. Rates increased strongly in commercial and personal lines. We estimate the positive price effect to be 13.1%.

At AGCS premiums amounted to € 862 million. On an internal basis we recorded a decline of 6.3%. The decrease stemmed from volume reduction in property and energy business. Increased prices came through our energy, aviation and financial lines of business. On a nominal basis revenues increased by 10.1% mainly due to the aforementioned transfer of our marine business from the United States to AGCS.

In Spain, revenues declined to € 494million and thus decreased by 1.0%. We recorded higher volume due to an increase in the number of policies and customers. Prices decreased especially due to tough competition in motor and commercial lines in an overall soft market environment. Despite the negative price impact – we estimate it to be around 5.3% – our Spanish operation is one of our most profitable businesses.

In New Europe, gross premiums written decreased to € 635 million, which contained a negative foreign currency translation impact of € 93 million. On an internal basis this decline was 2.5% as the highly competitive market environment put some pressure on our prices. This led to reduced premium levels especially in our renewed business. The estimated negative price effect on premiums written was 6.5%.

In Asia-Pacific, revenues amounted to € 121 million. Internal growth was 4.5%. Growth was mainly driven by higher volume in the motor business, which mainly stemmed from our Malaysian operations.

Cluster 3:

Gross premiums written in Australia increased to € 452 million. Internal growth was 10.1%. The increase was mainly a result of significant price increases which were implemented starting in mid-2008, and accounted for an estimated positive price effect of 5.6%. Volume grew strongly, too, mainly driven by motor and household.

In South America, revenues were up to € 306 million. Internal growth was 13.6%. All countries showed a positive development. In Brazil we continued to benefit from better penetration in regions outside the major metropolitan areas. There, motor, fire and engineering insurance lines contributed most to the increase.

Operating profit

Operating profit

in € mn

Our operating profit amounted to € 1,031 million, which is the best quarterly result this year. However, compared to previous year it is down by 18.2%. This development was mainly driven by a decline of net investment income of € 206 million and a € 64 million lower underwriting result.

Our combined ratio increased by 0.4 percentage points to 96.9%. A higher accident year loss ratio up 0.6 percentage points to 72.1% and a higher expense ratio up 0.2 percentage points to 26.7% contributed to this development. Run-off ratio stood at 1.9%.

Compared to the second quarter, our combined ratio showed a positive development in both components, expense and loss ratio. Our accident year loss ratio improved by 0.6 percentage points.

Compared to the previous year, the accident year loss ratio of 72.1% was higher by 0.6 percentage points. Losses from natural catastrophes accounted for 1.6% (3Q 08: 1.5%), including the two hailstorms in Germany and the windstorm 'Brigitta' in Austria. Therefore, the accident year loss ratio excluding natural catastrophes increased by 0.5 percentage points, mainly attributable to our business operations in Germany, Italy, France as well as our credit insurance business. challenged operating entities. Higher prices had an offsetting effect making up for 0.7 percentage points.

Acquisition and administrative expenses decreased by 0.6% to € 2,606 million and therefore remained largely unchanged. The expense ratio increased by 0.2 percentage points to 26.7%.

Administrative expenses grew slightly by 0.9% to € 779 million. We recorded higher expenses of € 7 million, mainly driven by higher investments as well as higher salaries. However, a reclassification of administrative expenses to acquisition expenses and reserve releases in the United States for post-retirement subsidies had a positive effect on administrative expenses.

Overall, acquisition expenses stayed largely flat with a decrease of 1.3% to € 1,827 million.

Net investment income decreased by € 206 million or 20.3% to € 811 million. Interest and similar income declined by € 184 million to € 865 million primarily driven by the lower interest rate environment resulting in reduced yields on our fixed-income investments. Debt yields in the market declined by 100 basis points, whereas on average our yield on debt and cash securities declined by only 25 basis points due to our longer asset duration. The prior year's income was positively impacted (approximately € 30 million) by a technical effect from our cash pool in France, where we recorded higher cash assets as well as higher cash liabilities resulting in higher investment income and interest expenses than in the current period. Investment expenses increased by € 156 million to € 103 million. This is driven by a foreign exchange loss of € 36 million in the current quarter compared to a € 108 million gain in the prior year quarter. In contrast operating impairments of investments (net) were down by € 125 million to € 4 million. This recovery has to be seen in light of the financial market crisis which affected us strongly in the third quarter 2008.

2009 to 2008 nine months comparison

Gross premiums written decreased on an internal basis by 1.4%. Thereof 2.1% resulted from a reduction in volume whereas the price effect was positive with 0.6%. On a nominal basis, revenues were down by 2.1%. Changes in the scope of Consolidation impacted revenue development negatively by 0.2% and were mainly attributable to the change in our Crop Insurance Program as previously described. Currency translation also had a negative impact of 0.5%.

Operating profit declined by 34.8% to € 2,895 million. This development was mainly driven by a lower underwriting result, down by € 807 million to € 374 million, and lower operating net investment income down by € 653 million to € 2,504 million.

Our combined ratio was up by 3.0 percentage points to 98.2%. We observed significant effects, which we consider to be temporary, like the recession-driven claims and topline reductions which especially hit our credit insurance business and a large number of weather-related losses. Our operations in Germany, France and Italy were adversely challenged by all of these. Our remaining portfolios delivered a strong combined ratio of 95% which is in line with previous years.

The expense ratio increased by 0.7 percentage points to 27.6 %.

Earnings Summary

Statutory premiums 1)

Our statutory premiums grew by 13.5% on an internal basis due to continued strong demand for our products with minimum guarantees and participating components. Last year's third quarter was dominated by the financial crisis, which significantly affected consumer sentiment for investment products in general. As the markets stabilized, we capitalized on strengthened consumer confidence in life insurance contracts in our major markets. On a nominal basis, revenues grew by 14.6% to € 10,788 million.

Statutory premiums – Internal growth rates in %

9M 2009 over 9M 2008

Premiums in our German life business grew by 18.3% to € 3,327 million. Growth was mainly driven by the continued high demand for single premium investment products from private and commercial customers. In addition, sales of our recurring premium traditional products recovered slightly. The German health business recorded a small but stable revenue growth.

In Switzerland premiums reached € 209 million. The internal growth rate amounted to 20.9%. This development was driven by single premiums of traditional life products with minimum guarantees.

In order to gain market share and respond to changing consumer demand, our Italian bank assurance channel has increased its share of products with minimum guarantees and participating components. Premiums in Italy were up by 89.3% to € 1,647 million, surpassing pre-crisis levels. The increase in products with guarantees compensated the continued low demand for pure unit-linked business with equity participation as consumers remained risk averse.

Premiums also increased in France by 5.2% to € 1,653 million due to strong sales of single premiums from traditional life as well as investment-oriented products. Persistent consumer risk aversion kept the demand for pure unit-linked products at a low level.

In the United States we have made significant changes in our product portfolio to improve the product profitability. Following the suspension of our variable annuity living benefit riders earlier in the year, our premiums declined to € 1,242 million. On an internal basis the decline amounted to 19.4%. The redesigned product was launched successfully in the variable annuity market in August. Our sales of fixed index and fixed annuity products continued to grow.

1) We comment on the development of our statutory premiums written on an internal basis; meaning adjusted for foreign currency translation and (de-)consolidation effects in order to provide more comparable information.

Our business in Asia-Pacific achieved premiums of € 985 million. Internal growth was 16.3%. This development was mainly driven by an increase of 81.3% or € 157 million in Taiwan where consumer confidence returned in line with the stock market recovery.

Business in New Europe was still impacted by recession. As lower disposable income decreased customer demand for savings products, premiums were down to € 222 million. On an internal basis this represented a decline of 24.6%.

Operating profit

Operating profit

in € mn

Operating profit increased from € 218 million to € 859 million on a quarterly basis. This strong development was driven by a robust investment result as capital markets improved and impairments reduced significantly.

Interest and similar income amounted to € 3,565 million, equating to a quarterly yield of 1.2%1). We recorded an increase of € 246 million mainly due to a growing debt portfolio, which outweighed negative effects from lower interest rates.

Net gain from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income increased significantly to € 159 million. Recovering equity markets as well as decreasing interest rates and further narrowing of credit spreads showed positive results in fair value. Positive contributions from assets accounted for under fair value option and trading, mainly in France and the U.S., impacted the operating profit positively with estimated € 150 million after policyholder participation.

Investment expenses stood at € 271 million. Thereof € 120 million corresponded to economically hedged currency losses.

Improved market conditions allowed for net realized gains. Those increased by € 444 million to € 544 million as our sale activity was back to normal levels as seen in a more stable environment.

Net impairments on investments decreased significantly by € 1,321 million to € 232 million. Last year's high impairments, especially in Germany and France, were not repeated this quarter as financial markets rebounded. Remaining impairments mostly resulted from private equity investments and – to a much lesser extent – debt securities and real estate.

Changes in reserves for insurance and investment contracts (net) amounted to € 2,534 million, € 1,071 million higher than in the third quarter 2008. This was driven by an increase of reserves for premium refunds to policyholders as a consequence of higher investment income.

Net claims and insurance benefits incurred increased slightly by 0.8% to € 4,399 million.

Acquisition and administrative expenses (net) amounted to € 1,128 million, up by 21.0%. Thereof, administrative expenses declined by 15.8% whereas acquisition costs increased by 48.6%, mainly driven by higher amortization of deferred acquisition costs at Allianz Life in the U.S. as gross margins improved.

Our cost-income ratio improved by 4.0 percentage points to 94.1% due to better investment performance compared to the premiums generated in the period.

1) On debt securities including cash components, based on an average asset base of € 276.9 bn.

2009 to 2008 first nine month comparison

In the first nine months of 2009 our statutory premiums grew by 9.5% or € 3,096 million on a nominal basis and 7.8% on an internal basis. Last year's development was affected by the financial markets crisis. Our premium growth in 2009 indicates a significant return of consumer confidence. This development is in line with the described effects for the third quarter.

Operating profit reached € 2,251 million in the first nine months of 2009. The increase amounted to 49.1% compared to the same period in 2008. In addition to the reversal of the negative trend in capital markets this result reflects our efforts to further reinforce the underlying proftability of our life/health business. Line item movements were largely consistent with the developments in the third quarter.

1) Following the completion of the sale of Dresdner Bank on January 12, 2009, Allianz has modified its segment structure and introduced a new Financial Services segment starting with the first quarter 2009. Under the roof of Financial Services we have grouped our activities from Asset Management, Banking and Alternative Investment Management.

On an internal basis1), at € 828 million, Asset Management's operating revenues were up by 18.1% quarter-on-quarter. Including cominvest (€ 36 million) and favorable foreign exchange effects (€ 34 million) we recorded operating revenues of € 901 million on a nominal basis, up 28.5%.

Net fee and commission income amounted to € 866 million, an increase of 19.4% on a nominal basis. Management fees grew by € 87 million to € 926 million. Performance fees were also up by € 65 million, mainly related to our fixed-income business.

Income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income amounted to € 18 million and was therefore € 64 million above the respective quarter in 2008.

Operating profit

Operating profit

Our Asset Management operating profit developed strongly to a result of € 368 million, up by 97.8%. This development reflected higher management and performance fees and an increase in seed money profitability. As in the quarters before, this trend was supported by currency gains (€ 15 million) and the acquisition of cominvest (€ 17 million).

Administrative expenses increased to € 531 million, up € 17 million or 3.3%. Driver behind this development were negative effects of foreign exchange movements. Excluding these, expenses remained flat, despite the impact of the first time consolidation of cominvest.

The positive trend in our cost-income ratio continued. For the third quarter the ratio stood at 59.2%, down 14.3 percentage points.

Third-party assets under management of the Allianz Group

Development of third-party assets under management in € bn

Third-party assets under management by geographic region as of September 30, 2009 (December 31, 2008) 2) in %

The acquisition of cominvest increased the proportion of investments originated in Germany since the beginning of the year, which now account for nearly 16% of Allianz's third-party assets under management.

Third-party assets under management amounted to € 878 billion as of September 30, 2009, an increase of € 175 billion compared to December 31, 2008. We recorded net inflows for the first nine months of 2009 of € 61 billion with a positive contribution from fixed-income products of € 67 billion, partly offset by net outflows from our equity business. The rebounding markets in the second and third quarter led to market-related appreciations of € 90 billion, which lifted equities by € 22 billion and fixed-income securities by € 68 billion. Negative foreign currency translation effects amounted to € 16 billion, resulting primarily from a weaker U.S. Dollar versus the Euro.

The split between equity and fixed-income assets remained almost unchanged. The latter made up for 84% of third-party assets under management – a decrease of 1 percentage point versus year-end 2008 – with equity assets accounting for the balance.

The weighting of retail and institutional clients shifted towards retail customers which accounted for 32% of our third-party assets as of September 30, 2009 (December 31, 2008: 26%). This was the result of the first time consolidation of cominvest, higher net inflows and increased market return.

Compared to year-end 2008, the performance of Allianz Global Investors' assets under management remained robust concerning our equity products, where 61% (December 31, 2008: 62%) achieved an outperformance against benchmarks, despite the strong negative impact of the financial crisis. Our fixed-income products performed strongly with 79% (December 31, 2008: 48%) outperforming their respective benchmarks.

2009 to 2008 first nine months comparison

Financial Services

On a nominal basis we recorded an operating revenue increase of 5.0% to € 2,846 million for the Financial Services segment. Adjusted for positive currency translation effects – mainly resulting from the stronger U.S. Dollar – (€ 180 million) and the consolidation of cominvest (€ 100 million) our operating revenues decreased by 5.6% to € 2,559 million on an internal basis.

Operating profit declined by 4.4% to € 676 million. The increase in the third quarter could not fully compensate for the shortfall in the first half of 2009. For the Allianz Bank in Germany we recorded expensed set-up costs of € 118 million on a nine months basis.

Asset Management

For the first nine months, we recorded operating revenues of € 2,396 million, up 10.5% compared to the first nine months of 2008 on a nominal basis. Adjusted for cominvest, contributing € 100 million, and positive foreign exchange movements, totalling € 179 million, revenues were down by 2.7% to € 2,111 million on an internal basis.

For the first nine months of 2009 operating profit increased by 16.5% to € 825 million. The developments in the respective positions were largely consistent with the 2009 to 2008 third quarter comparison.

Corporate Activities

Earnings Summary

The aggregate operating loss increased by € 208 million to € 258 million.

Interest and similar income declined by € 135 million mainly driven by lower interest income due to a lower interest rate level on short term debt. Thereof, dividend income declined by € 40 million as a result of our equity exposure reduction program. Interest expenses, excluding interest expenses from external debt decreased by € 58 million to € 103 million.

Investment expenses increased by € 93 million to € 45 million coming from a positive level of € 48 million in the third quarter 2008. This development was largely driven by unfavorable foreign currency movements – especially after positive ones in the previous year's quarter – amounting to € 120 million.

2009 to 2008 first nine months comparison

In the first nine months of 2009, the same effects led to an operating loss of € 641 million, an increase of € 471 million.

  • Shareholders' equity of € 39.4 billion.

Shareholders' Equity 2)

Shareholders' equity

in € mn

As of September 30, 2009, shareholders' equity amounted to € 39,352 million and was up 16.8% from December 31, 2008. The change was driven by net income of € 3,221 million and unrealized gains of € 4,054 million, of which approximately two-thirds were attributable to strategic investments, whilst the payment of the 2008 dividend of € 1,580 million in the second quarter reduced equity.

Regulatory capital adequacy

Allianz Group is a financial conglomerate within the scope of the Financial Conglomerates Directive and the related German law effective since January 1, 2005. Under this directive, a financial conglomerate is defined as any financial parent holding company that, together with its subsidiaries, has significant cross-border and cross-sector activities. The law requires that a financial conglomerate calculates the capital needed to meet the respective solvency requirements on a consolidated basis.

Conglomerate solvency

As of September 30, 2009 our available funds for the solvency margin required for our insurance segments and our banking and asset management businesses were € 34.3 billion including off-balance sheet reserves, surpassing the minimum legally stipulated level by € 13.4 billion. This margin resulted in a cover ratio of 164%1) at September 30, 2009.

1) During the fiscal year, conglomerate solvency is partially based on assumptions. The extent to which intangible assets related to certain private equity investments are to be deducted from our own funds for the purpose of the conglomerate solvency calculation has not yet been finally agreed with BaFin.

2) Does not include minority interests of € 2.1 bn and € 3.6 bn as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. For further information please refer to Note 21 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

3) Include foreign currency translation adjustments.

4) Available funds and requirement as of December 31, 2008 including discontinued operations were adjusted to reflect the pro-forma view. For example, we removed hybrid capital related to Dresdner Bank from available funds and adjusted the deduction of goodwill and other intangible assets. Furthermore, we deleted the requirement of our discontinued operations.

Total Assets and Total Liabilities

In the following sections, we show our asset allocation for our insurance portfolio and analyze important developments within the balance sheets of our Property-Casualty, Life/Health, Financial Services and Corporate segments as presented on pages 56 and 57.

As of September 30, 2009 total assets amounted to € 573.1 billion and total liabilities amounted to € 531.6 billion. When compared to the year-end 2008 total assets and total liabilities decreased by € 382.5 billion and € 386.7 billion, respectively. This decrease was attributable to the deconsolidation of Dresdner Bank, which reduced assets and liabilities by € 417.9 billion and € 410.5 billion, respectively.

Asset allocation

Total investment assets from our Property-Casualty, Life/ Health and Corporate segments amounted to a total of € 401.1 billion as of September 30, 2009. Thereof, the fixedincome portfolio which comprises bonds and loans 1) accounted for 89.2% of total investment assets, equities for 7.6% and other investment categories for 3.2%. The increase in our debt portfolio value by € 42.0 billion was driven by net inflows mainly from our Life/Health business and positive market effects resulting from narrowing credit spreads.

We consider our fixed-income portfolio to be both of high quality and well diversified. A share of more than 60% relates to government and covered bonds that help mitigate against possible future deteriorations in the credit markets. The relatively high share in government bonds and loans amounting to € 126.3 billion and German Pfandbriefe at € 61.1 billion secure a high fungibility of the portfolio as assets attributable to the Eurozone are eligible as collateral

Property-Casualty assets

Property-Casualty asset base 1)

fair values 2) in € bn

During the first nine months 2009 our Property-Casualty asset base increased by € 0.9 billion. An increase in debt securities of € 6.0 billion to € 57.0 billion outweighed the decline in equity investments, which were down by 21.9% to € 5.0 billion, mainly due to disposals. In addition cash and cash pool assets decreased by € 2.3 billion compared to the year-end due to a repayment of short-term cash liabilities, which decreased by the same amount. Therefore we recorded no net change in cash assets and cash liabilities. Cash and cash pool assets amounted to € 5.2 billion.

In the third quarter of 2009 our asset base was up by 2.7% to € 92.7 billion. Equity investments increased by 16.3 % to € 5.0 billion. In contrast to previous quarters, there were no equity reduction activities and as equity markets recovered positive market effects increased our equity exposure slightly. In addition, we recorded an increase in debt investments by € 2.2 billion to € 57.0 billion, driven by net inflows and positive market value effects.

65% of covered bonds are German Pfandbriefe backed by either public sector loans or mortgage loans. On these as well as on all other covered bond exposures, minimum required security buffers as well as voluntary over-collateralization offer a substantial cushion for house price deterioration and payment defaults.

1) We have changed the definition of the asset bases to better reflect the economic reality: since 1Q 2009 we include cash and cash equivalents and receivables from cash pooling net of liabilities from securities lending in our asset bases.

2) Loans and advances to banks and customers, held-to-maturity investments, and real estate held for investment are stated at amortized cost. Investments in associates and joint ventures are stated at either amortized cost or equity, depending upon, among other factors, our share of ownership percentage.

In the first nine months, the Life/Health asset base increased by 8.3% to € 370.5 billion. We recorded a significant increase in debt investments from € 153.6 billion up to € 176.0 billion. This development was driven by strong net inflows from our Life insurance business and by credit spread narrowing resulting in an increase of the value of our corporate bonds. A slight net reduction in equity investments of € 1.9 billion to € 20.3 billion was due to our equity reduction program, partially offset by strong performing equity markets in the last two quarters. The increase in loans and advances to banks and customers by € 10.3 billion was also driven by net inflows.

In the third quarter, we recorded an increase of 4.3% in our Life/Health asset base to € 370.5 billion. Our debt investments increased by € 11.3 billion to € 176.0 billion, mainly due to narrowed credit spreads and strong net inflows. Our equity investments increased by € 2.1 billion compared to the previous quarter. Positive market effects outweighed reductions in equity investments.

3) Comprises assets of € 1.2 bn and € 1.5 bn and liabilities of € (6.0) bn and € (5.8) bn as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 respectively.

4) Do not include affiliates of € 1.6 bn and € 2.5 bn as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

5) Including cash and cash equivalents as stated in our segment balance sheet of € 2.2 bn and € 4.8 bn and receivables from cash pooling amounting to € 2.2 bn and € 6.6 bn net of liabilities from securities lending of € 0 bn and € (0.4) bn as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

6) Financial assets for unit-linked contracts represent assets owned by, and managed on the behalf of, policyholders of the Allianz Group, with all appreciation and depreciation in these assets accruing to the benefit of policyholders. As a result, the value of financial assets for unit-linked contracts in our balance sheet corresponds to the value of financial liabilities for unit-linked contracts.

1) We have changed the definition of the asset bases to better reflect the economic reality: since 1Q 2009 we include cash and cash equivalents and receivables from cash pooling net of liabilities from securities lending in our asset bases.

2) Loans and advances to banks and customers, held-to-maturity investments, and real estate held for investment are stated at amortized cost. Investments in associates and joint ventures are stated at either amortized cost or equity, depending upon, among other factors, our ownership percentage.

Change in unit-linked Insurance Contracts A

Change in unit-linked Investment Contracts B

Foreign currency translation adjustments C

Our financial assets for unit-linked contracts amounted to € 54.9 billion. Unit-linked insurance contracts increased by € 5.5 billion, which was largely attributable to a favorable fund performance and a fairly stable premium inflow. Unitlinked investment contracts stayed nearly unchanged.

Change in reserves for premium refunds B

Foreign currency translation adjustments C

Life/Health reserves for insurance and investment contracts increased in the first nine months by € 17.6 billion (6.1%) to € 305.5 billion. The increase was mainy driven by the change in aggregate policy reserves. Major contributers are our operations in Germany (€ 4.1 billion), Italy (€ 2.8 billion), France (€ 1.4 billion) and the U.S. (€ 1.1 billion). Our reserves for premium refunds are up by € 6.8 billion due to the recovery of financial markets. The first time consolidation of Allianz Thailand in the second quarter added € 1.9 billion. Foreign currency losses of € 1.8 billion resulted primarily from the decline of the U.S. Dollar versus the Euro.

Assets and liabilities of the Financial Services segment

Financial Services assets

Assets in our Financial Services segment relate mostly to our continuing banking business. Our Asset Management segment's results of operations stem primarily from its management of third-party assets.1)

Financial Services liabilities

Our liabilities to banks and customers amounted to € 16.4 billion (down 3.3%). Thereof, liabilities payable on demand accounted for € 4.1 billion, repurchase agreements for € 1.3 billion, term deposits and certificates of deposit for € 4.0 billion and savings deposits for € 1.9 billion.

1) For further information on the development of these third-party assets please refer to pages 24 and 26.

2) Includes loan loss allowance of € (0.1) bn and € (0.1) bn as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

Assets and liabilities of the Corporate segment

Corporate assets

Corporate asset base 1)

fair values 2) in € bn

In the first nine months our Corporate asset base was down by 4.6% to € 20.8 billion. Investments in debts increased slightly by 1.2% due to net inflows. Our equity investments declined by € 0.8 billion as net outflows were higher than positive market effects. On the one hand positive equity performance in the second and third quarter 2009 could offset the equity downturn in the first quarter 2009. On the other hand new net investments were outweighed by major disposals.

In the third quarter the Corporate asset base increased by 10.1% to € 20.8 billion. Equity investments increased slightly by € 0.5 billion. Positive market performance drove up equity exposure, but was partly offset by disposals. Loans and advances to banks and customers increased by € 1.8 billion.

This call with a volume of € 85.1 million will be effective on December 31, 2009. The holders will receive a cash compensation corresponding to 122.9% of the volume-weighted average price of the Allianz SE shares, based on the quotation during the last three months prior to the termination, but not less than € 72.39 per profit participation certificate.

Reconciliation of Consolidated Operating Profit and Income Before Income Taxes and Minority Interests in Earnings

The previous analysis is based on our consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with them. The Allianz Group uses operating profit to evaluate the performance of its business segments and the Group as a whole. The Allianz Group considers the presentation of operating profit to be useful and meaningful to investors because it enhances the understanding of the Allianz Group's underlying operating performance and the comparability of its operating performance over time. Operating profit highlights the portion of income before income taxes and minority interests in earnings attributable to the on-going core operations of the Allianz Group. To better understand the on-going operations of the business, we exclude the effects of acquisition-related expenses and the amortization of intangible assets, as these relate to business combinations; and we exclude interest expenses from external debt, as these relate to our capital structure, and non-operating income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net).

We believe that trends in the underlying profitability of our business can be more clearly identified without the fluctuating effects of the realized capital gains and losses or impairments of investment securities, as these are largely dependent on market cycles or issuer-specific events over which we have little or no control, and can and do vary, sometimes materially, across periods. Furthermore, the timing of sales that would result in such gains or losses is largely at our discretion.

We also exclude income from fully consolidated private equity investments (net) as this represents income from industrial holdings, which is outside the Allianz Group's normal scope of operating business.

Similarly, we exclude restructuring charges because the timing of the restructuring charges are largely within our control, and accordingly their exclusion provides additional insight into the operating trends of the underlying business. This differentiation is not made if the profit sources are shared with the policyholder.

Operating profit should be viewed as complementary to, and not a substitute for income before income taxes and minority interests in earnings or net income as determined in accordance with IFRS.

Composition of Total Revenue1) Growth

We also believe that an understanding of our total revenue performance is enhanced when the effects of foreign currency translation as well as acquisitions and disposals (or changes in scope of consolidation) are excluded. Accordingly, in addition to presenting "nominal growth", we also present "internal growth", which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation and changes in scope of consolidation.

Allianz Group Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

1 Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Allianz Group – comprising the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and selected explanatory notes – are presented in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as adopted under European Union ("EU") regulations in accordance with section 315a of the German Commercial Code ("HGB"). The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Allianz Group have also been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board ("IASB"). The Allianz Group's application of IFRS results in no differences between IFRS as adopted by the EU and IFRS as issued by the IASB.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements comply with all new or amended IFRS, where application is compulsory or early adopted for the first time for periods beginning on January 1, 2009. See Note 2 for further details.

For existing and unchanged IFRS the accounting policies for recognition, measurement, consolidation and presentation applied in the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies that have been applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Allianz Group Annual Report 2008.

IFRS do not provide specific guidance concerning all aspects of the recognition and measurement of insurance and reinsurance contracts. Therefore, as envisioned in IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the provisions embodied under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been applied to those aspects where specific guidance is not provided by IFRS 4, Insurance Contracts.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in millions of Euro (€ mn).

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Allianz Group were authorized for issue by the Board of Management on November 6, 2009.

2 Recently adopted accounting pronouncements, changes in accounting policies and changes in the presentation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements (effective January 1, 2009 and early adoption)

IFRS 8, Operating Segments

In November 2006, the IASB issued IFRS 8, Operating Segments. Effectively replacing IAS 14, IFRS 8 requires that an entity selects operating segments that are consistent with internal reports regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and assess its performance (i. e., the "management approach"). The standard also requires explanations of how segment information is prepared as well as reconciliations of total reportable segment revenues, total profits or losses, total assets and other material amounts disclosed for reportable segments to corresponding amounts recognized in the entity's financial statements. The Allianz Group adopted IFRS 8 and early adopted the amendment to IFRS 8 as of January 1, 2009. IFRS 8 does not have any material impact on the Allianz Group's financial results or financial position.

Previously, under IAS 14, the Allianz Group reported "Property-Casualty", "Life/Health", "Banking", "Asset Management" and "Corporate" as primary segments that, where appropriate, were subsequently organized by geographical areas. The implementation of IFRS 8 led to a change in the segment report (Note 5) from prior periods. In adopting the management approach to segment reporting as mandated by IFRS 8, the Allianz Group has identified its reportable segments on the basis of both products and services and geographic regions. Furthermore, after the sale of Dresdner Bank, the Allianz Group's main product and service offerings consist of property-casualty insurance, life/health

insurance, financial services and corporate activities. Financial services refer to the Allianz Group's asset management business, continuing banking operations and its alternative investment management operations. Based on information reported to the Allianz Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of allocating resources and measuring performance, the following reportable segments have been identified:

Property-Casualty

  • German Speaking Countries
  • Europe I incl. South America
  • Europe II incl. Africa
  • Anglo Broker Markets/Global Lines
  • Growth Markets

Life/Health

  • German Speaking Countries
  • Europe I incl. South America
  • Europe II incl. Africa
  • Anglo Broker Markets/Global Lines
  • Growth Markets

Financial Services

  • Asset Management
  • Banking
  • Alternative Investment Management

Corporate

Since the Allianz Group uses operating profit as its internal profit or loss measure, operating profit is included in the segment report. For further details on segment reporting, please refer to Note 5.

In April 2009, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 8, Operating Segments as part of the Improvements to IFRSs. The amendment to IFRS 8 requires an entity to report total assets for reportable segments only if that information is regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. Prior to the amendment, IFRS 8 required entities to report total assets for reportable segments regardless of whether the information was regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker or not.

The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010 and early application is permitted.

The Allianz Group adopted the amendment in the first quarter 2009. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the EU, but does not have a material impact on the Allianz Group's condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements – revised

In September 2007, the IASB issued the revised IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The revised standard requires information in financial statements to be aggregated on the basis of shared characteristics and introduces a statement of comprehensive income. The revised standard gives preparers of financial statements the option of presenting items of income and expense and components of other comprehensive income either in a single statement of comprehensive income with subtotals, or in two separate statements. The revisions also include changes in the titles of some of the financial statements to reflect their function more clearly. The new titles are not mandatory for use in financial statements. Allianz Group has decided not to change the titles of the statements. The Allianz Group adopted revised IAS 1 as of January 1, 2009.

Allianz Group decided to apply the two statement approach, i. e., in addition to the income statement, a statement of comprehensive income is presented including net income and other comprehensive income ("OCI"). For each component of OCI related tax effects are disclosed in the notes. Furthermore, reclassifications of components of OCI to realized gains or losses are separately presented for each component of OCI. The changes in presentation have also been included for prior periods. As a consequence, the statement of changes in equity includes transactions with owners in their capacity as owners, the total comprehensive income and, when applicable, the effects of retrospective applications or restatements. The Allianz Group's condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been presented with the effect of these changes.

New Accounting Standards Codification under U.S. GAAP On July 1, 2009 the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") launched the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ ("ASC") as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. FASB ASC is a major restructuring of accounting and reporting standards designed to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP pronouncements by providing the authoritative literature in a topically organized structure but is not intended to change U.S. GAAP. Correspondingly, names and codifications relating to e.g. insurance accounting categories have been changed within the quarterly report of Allianz Group.

Further amendments and interpretations

In addition to the above mentioned recently adopted accounting pronouncements, the following amendments to standards and interpretations have been adopted as of January 1, 2009:

  • IAS 23, Borrowing Costs amended
  • IFRS 2, Share-based Payment amended
  • IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation, and IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements – amended
  • Annual Improvements to IFRS, if applicable
  • Amendments to IFRIC 9 and IAS 39
  • IFRIC 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes
  • IFRIC 15, Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate
  • IFRIC 16, Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation

The Allianz Group adopted the amendments and interpretations as of January 1, 2009 with no material effect on its financial result or financial position.

Changes in accounting policies

IFRS 2, Share-based payment

As described in Note 2 and Note 48 of the Allianz Group's Annual Report 2008, the Allianz Group accrues the fair value of the awards relating to Group Equity Incentive ("GEI") plans as compensation expenses over the vesting period. The fair value of the recorded liability is driven by two separate effects being (1) the accrual of the plan benefits over the vesting period and (2) changes in the share price of Allianz SE. In prior years, both effects were included in administrative expenses. The second effect is hedged with derivatives with changes in the fair value of the derivatives recognized in the line item "Income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net)".

Effective June 30, 2009, Allianz Group voluntarily changed its accounting policy with regard to the presentation of expenses relating to the second effect. The accrual of plan benefits over the vesting period continues to be shown in administrative expenses. Expenses relating to changes in the share price of the Allianz SE are now presented within the line item "Income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net)". The Allianz Group believes that this presentation is more relevant and gives a clearer picture of expenses relating to the GEIs at grant date. Subsequent fluctuations in the share price are offset due to the hedging of the share price fluctuations. Therefore, the recognition of expenses relating to share price fluctuations within the line item "Income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net)" better reflects the position of Allianz Group and reduces volatility in administrative expenses.

The change in accounting policy is applied retrospectively and results in changes in the presentation as described in the tables below. There is no impact on recognition, initial or subsequent measurement of GEI plans.

Changes in the presentation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

Reclassification within Alternative Investment Management

After the sale of Dresdner Bank on January 12, 2009 and with the adoption of IFRS 8, Operating Segments, the Allianz Group has modified its segment structure and introduced a new Financial Services segment starting with the first quarter 2009. The activities of the asset managers of Alternative Investments, previously reported within the Corporate segment, are now assigned to this new segment. Following the new reporting structure of the Financial Services segment, prior years' expenses of Alternative Investment Management were reclassified from "Fee and commission expenses" to "Acquisition and administrative expenses (net)" to conform to the segment presentation introduced with the adoption of IFRS 8, Operating Segments.

The tables below describe the impact on the consolidated income statements resulting from the reclassification of expenses at Alternative Investment Management for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Reclassification of corporate loans

Certain corporate loans were shown within the category held-to-maturity investments in prior periods and were measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method according to IAS 39. The corporate loans meet the definition of loans and receivables and should have been recorded as such. Loans and receivables are also measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method according to IAS 39.

The categorization has been corrected as of September 30, 2009 and prior periods have been adjusted accordingly. There is no impact on the consolidated income statement since the measurement of both categories is the same and interest payments are shown in "Interest and similar income" for both held-to-maturity investments and loans and receivables. The line items in the consolidated balance sheet have been adjusted leading to a transfer of the corporate loans from "Investments" to "Loans and advances to banks and customers".

The following table summarizes the impacts on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008:

Other reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Reclassification of financial assets

In the first quarter 2009 certain CDOs, which were retained from Dresdner Bank, were reclassified subsequent to the derecognition of Dresdner Bank according to IAS 39 from financial assets held for trading to loans and advances to banks and customers. The embedded derivatives included in the CDOs were separated and are shown within financial assets held for trading.

The CDOs were reclassified at their fair value of € 1.1 bn at the reclassification date.

The decline in fair value is mainly due to principal repayments and foreign currency movements.

In the current environment of highly illiquid markets, valuation techniques are required to derive the fair value of these CDOs. As significant input parameters need to be based on non-observable assumptions, management judgement is required to adequately reflect the uncertainties. The Allianz Group has updated the mark-to-model input parameters and cumulatively adjusted the expected recoverable cash flows as of the date of reclassification to € 1.8 bn and the effective interest rate to approximately 7%.

3 Assets and liabilities of disposal groups classified as held for sale and discontinued operations

Impact of the sale of Dresdner Bank AG to Commerzbank AG

As described in the Notes to the Allianz Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, Allianz and Commerzbank agreed on the sale of Dresdner Bank. The transfer of ownership of Dresdner Bank to Commerzbank was completed on January 12, 2009 as scheduled. Accordingly, assets and liabilities of Dresdner Bank have been deconsolidated in the first quarter 2009.

The loss from derecognition of discontinued operations amounts to € 395 mn and represents mainly the reclassification of components of other comprehensive income to net income. All income and expenses relating to the discontinued operations of Dresdner Bank have been reclassified and presented in a separate line item "Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes and minority interests in earnings" in the consolidated income statements for all periods presented in accordance with IFRS 5.

Net income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, is comprised of:

4 Consolidation

Significant acquisitions

Cominvest

On January 12, 2009, the Allianz Group acquired, as part of the consideration received for the sale of Dresdner Bank to Commerzbank, 100% of the fund manager cominvest (including cominvest Asset Management GmbH, cominvest Asset Management S.A. (Luxembourg), cominvest Vertriebs AG and MK Luxinvest S.A. (Luxembourg)). Together with Allianz Global Investors Deutschland they became Germany's largest asset manager with assets under management of approximately € 300 bn.

Components of costs

The acquisition of cominvest was part of the consideration received from Commerzbank for the sale of Dresdner Bank on January 12, 2009. The fair value of the cominvest entities was determined to be € 700 mn and was recognized as the cost of this acquisition.

The impact of cominvest on the Allianz Group's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was € 13 mn.

The amounts recognized for major classes of assets and liabilities have been finalized in the third quarter mainly due to identification and valuation of intangible assets and are as follows:

Fair value Carrying
amount
€ mn € mn
Cash and cash equivalents 48 48
Investments 186 186
Deferred tax assets 14 8
Other assets 42 41
Intangible assets 239
Total assets 529 283
Deferred tax liabilities 72 1
Other liabilities 147 128
Participation certificates and subordinated
liabilities 57 50
Total equity 253 104
Total liabilities and equity 529 283

At the date of the acquisition, goodwill reflects to a large extent the strengthening and expansion of the market position of our asset management operations. Goodwill has been adjusted largely due to the recognition of separately identified intangible assets.

If the acquisition date of the combined entity (Allianz Group including cominvest) would have been on January 1, 2009, the revenues and net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 would have been immaterially different from the revenues and net income as presented in the consolidated income statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Ayudhya Allianz C.P. Life Public Company Limited

On June 29, 2009, the Allianz Group obtained control of the Thai life insurance company Ayudhya Allianz C.P. Life Public Company Limited, Bangkok, by appointing the majority of the members of the board of directors.

The cost of the investment in Ayudhya Allianz C.P. Life Public Company Limited amounts to € 71 mn.

The impact of Ayudhya on the Allianz Group's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was € 3 mn.

The amounts recognized for major classes of assets and liabilities have been slightly adjusted for purchase accounting effects in the third quarter and are as follows:

Fair value Carrying

5 Segment reporting

The Allianz Group has identified 14 reportable segments in accordance with IFRS 8, Operating Segments. Business activities of the Allianz Group are first segregated by product and type of service: insurance activities, financial services activities and corporate activities. Due to differences in the nature of products, risks and capital allocation, insurance activities are further divided between property-casualty and life/health categories.

The following are the five primary regions in which the Allianz Group operates:

  • German Speaking Countries
  • Europe I incl. South America
  • Europe II incl. Africa
  • Anglo Broker Markets/Global Lines
  • Growth Markets.

The Allianz Group has identified 10 reportable segments for insurance activities, representing Property-Casualty and Life/Health insurance categories organized by the geographical areas or regions listed above. Due to differences in the nature of products, risks and capital allocation, financial services activities are divided into three reportable segments: Asset Management, Banking and Alternative Investment Management. Corporate activities represent a separate reportable segment. The types of products and services from which reportable segments derive revenue are listed below.

Property-Casualty

In the Property-Casualty category, reportable segments offer a wide variety of insurance products to both private and corporate customers, including motor liability and own damage, accident, general liability, fire and property, legal expense, credit and travel insurance.

Life/Health

In the Life/Health category, reportable segments offer a comprehensive range of life and health insurance products on both individual and group basis, including annuity endowment and term insurance, unit-linked and investmentoriented products as well as full private health and supplemental health and care insurance.

Financial Services

The reportable segment Asset Management operates as a global provider of institutional and retail asset management products and services to third-party investors and provides investment management services to the Allianz Group's insurance operations. The products for retail and institutional customers include equity and fixed-income funds as well as alternative products. The United States and Germany as well as France, Italy and the Asia-Pacific region represent the primary asset management markets.

The reportable segment Banking consists of the banking activities in Germany, France, Italy and Central and Eastern Europe. The banks offer a wide range of products for corporate and retail clients with its main focus on the latter.

The reportable segment Alternative Investment Management provides global alternative investment management services in the private equity, real estate, renewable energy and infrastructure sectors on behalf of third-party investors and Allianz Group insurance operations.

Corporate

The reportable segment Corporate includes the management and support of the Allianz Group's business through its strategy, risk, corporate finance, treasury, financial control, communication, legal, human resources and technology functions. The Corporate reportable segment also includes certain fully consolidated private equity investments.

Measurement

Prices for transactions between reportable segments are set on an arm's length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties. Transactions between reportable segments are eliminated in the consolidation. For the reportable segments comprising the Allianz Group's financial services activities, interest revenue is reported net of interest expenses.

The Allianz Group uses operating profit to evaluate the performance of its reportable segments. The Allianz Group considers the presentation of operating profit to be useful and meaningful to investors because it enhances the understanding of the Allianz Group's underlying operating performance and the comparability of its operating performance over time. Operating profit highlights the portion of income before income taxes and minority interests in earnings attributable to the ongoing core operations of the Allianz Group. To better understand the on-going operations of the business, the Allianz Group excludes the effects of acquisition-related expenses and the amortization of intangible assets, as these relate to business combinations; interest expenses from external debt as these relate to the capital structure of the Allianz Group, and non-operating income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net).

The Allianz Group believes that trends in the underlying profitability of its business can be more clearly identified without the fluctuating effects of the realized capital gains and losses or impairments of investment securities, as these are largely dependent on market cycles or issuerspecific events over which the Allianz Group has little or no control, and can and do vary, sometimes materially, across periods. Further, the timing of sales that would result in such gains or losses is largely at the discretion of the Allianz Group.

The Allianz Group also excludes income from fully consolidated private equity investments (net) as this represents income from industrial holdings, which is outside the Allianz Group's normal scope of operating business. Similarly, restructuring charges are excluded because the timing of the restructuring charges are largely within the control of the Allianz Group, and accordingly their exclusion provides additional insight into the operating trends of the underlying business. This differentiation is not made if the profit sources are shared with policyholders.

Recent Organizational Changes

In connection with the sale of Dresdner Bank on January 12, 2009, the Allianz Group modified its internal organizational structure as noted above. Business activities of the Allianz Group are segregated by product and type of service, resulting in insurance activities, financial services activities and corporate activities. Financial services activities now include certain alternative investment management operations that were previously part of the Allianz Group's corporate activities. The corresponding items of previously reported information have been restated to reflect this change in the composition of the Allianz Group's reportable segments.

2) Includes primarily long-term distribution agreements with Commerzbank (€ 626 mn), customer relationships (€ 371 mn), research and development costs (€ 85 mn) and bancassurance agreements (€ 14 mn).

Changes in goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were as follows:

Cost as of January 1, 11,445
Accumulated impairments as of January 1, (224)

The reclassification relates to the goodwill of Selecta AG, Muntelier, as this subsidiary is reclassified out of disposal groups classified as held for sale.

Dresdner Bank Group

As described in detail in Note 3, the sale of Dresdner Bank was completed on January 12, 2009. Accordingly, assets and liabilities of Dresdner Bank were deconsolidated in the first quarter 2009.

Selecta AG

Given the current market environment the intended sale of Selecta has been deferred in order to optimise valuations and investment proceeds.

As a result, firstly the assets and liabilities of Selecta were reclassified from "non-current assets and assets and liabilities of disposal groups classified as held for sale" as of June 30, 2009 based on their original IFRS presentation.

Secondly, the non-current assets of Selecta were remeasured at the date of reclassification to reflect the carrying amounts the assets would have had in the absence of the held for sale classification from the end of the fourth quarter 2007 until the end of the second quarter 2009. This resulted in depreciation and amortization expenses net of deferred income taxes of € 120 mn.

If Selecta was not classified as held for sale in the comparative periods presented, net income from continuing operations would have been € 17 mn lower for the three months and € 49 mn lower for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 due to amortization and depreciation of the noncurrent assets of Selecta.

1) The presented subtotal for expenses and total income and expenses from fully consolidated private equity investment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 differs from the amounts presented in the "consolidated income statements" and in "Total revenues and reconciliation of Operating profit (loss) to Net income (loss)". This difference is due to a consolidation effect of € (26) mn and € 89 mn for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. This consolidation effect results from the deferred policyholder participation, recognised on the result from fully consolidated private equity investments within operating profit in the Life/Health segment, that was reclassified into expenses from fully consolidated private equity investments in non-operating profit to ensure a consistent presentation of the Group operating profit.

Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, both adjusted for the effects of potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares arise from the assumed conversion of participation certificates issued by Allianz SE, warrants issued by Allianz SE and share-based compensation plans, as well as from the conversion of derivatives on own shares.

Allianz SE The Board of Management

Review report

To Allianz SE, Munich

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Allianz SE, Munich – comprising the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and selected explanatory notes - together with the interim group management report of the Allianz SE, Munich for the period from January 1 to September 30, 2009 that are part of the quarterly financial report according to §37x Abs. 3 WpHG ["Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": "German Securities Trading Act"]. The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with those IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and in accordance with the IFRS for interim financial reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and of the interim group management report in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports, is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.

We performed our review of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with a certain level of assurance, that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in material aspects, in accordance with the IFRS

applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and in accordance with the IFRS for interim financial reporting as issued by the IASB, and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material aspects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot issue an auditor's report.

Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and in accordance with the IFRS for interim financial reporting as issued by the IASB, or that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports.
