Group Management Report

1990: In the year of German reunification, Allianz's East German subsidiary launches an advertising campaign for auto insurance. The old East German classic car, the "Trabbi", is left to gather dust in the garage while the people in the advertisement are depicted showing their new "West German car" some tender loving care. Allianz's business booms: within the space of two months, the company's customers in the former East Germany take out 650,000 new policies.

2012: Allianz's auto insurance is almost as old as the first electric car. Allianz has been a stable insurance partner of the automotive industry since 1918. The Allianz Center for Technology has been researching the issue of e-mobility for years now, and several hundreds of purely electrically powered cars already enjoy the comprehensive insurance cover offered by Allianz.

◼ Ear nings Su mmary for the Third quarter 2012

operating environment

The world economy lost further steam well into the summer – largely due to the unrelenting sovereign debt crisis in the Eurozone. Low interest rates and financial market volatility continued to put pressure on the insurance industry's earnings and balance sheets. However, equity markets saw an upward trend in the third quarter and selected corporate and sovereign credit spreads narrowed.

In the property-casualty insurance industry, market conditions continued to slowly improve in many countries. Premium growth was mainly driven by rate increases, for example in Germany and Australia, supported by relatively robust economic growth in emerging markets. After the extraordinarily costly natural catastrophes in 2011, conditions in 2012 have been relatively benign.

1 | Solvency according to the E.U. Financial Conglomerates Directive. Off-balance sheet reserves are accepted by the authorities as eligible capital only upon request. Allianz SE has not submitted an application so far. Excluding off-balance sheet reserves, the solvency ratio as of 30 September 2012 would be 181% (31 December 2011: 170%, 31 December 2010: 164%).

In the life insurance industry, global premium growth remained sluggish. In emerging markets, premium growth recovered. In advanced markets, however, premium growth stalled or even contracted with some European markets – for example, France and Spain – among the hardest hit due to the difficult economic conditions and competition. The U.S. market sent mixed signals, annuity sales dropped as a result of low return guarantees, but other sales continued to improve in the life industry, albeit slowly. Needless to say, the persistent low-yield environment, coupled with overall modest economic growth, continues to be a challenge for traditional life business.

Management's assessment of results

Despite the tough economic and market conditions – which weighed heavily on premium growth for the life industry – we managed to increase T otal revenues from € 24.1 bn to € 25.2 bn. All our operating segments contributed to this positive development. On an internal basis 1 , revenues grew by 1.2 %.

We earned a strong operating profit of € 2,532 mn, an increase of 32.8 %. This increase was mainly driven by our Life/ Health business thanks to its higher investment result and from Asset Management due to the increase in assets under management and performance fees. Our Property-Casualty segment also contributed, although to a lesser extent, as our underwriting result benefited from the benign natural catastrophe environment.

Thanks to our good operating performance and strongly improved non-operating result, our n e t income also significantly rebounded from € 258 mn to € 1,437 mn. The third quarter of 2011 was severely impacted by high investment losses from the European sovereign debt crisis.

Our capita l izat ion remained strong compared to 31 December 2011. Shareholders' equity increased by 15.6 % to € 51,915 mn and conglomerate solvency further strengthened by 11 percentage points to 190 %2 .

Total Revenues3

2012 to 2011 Third quarter co mpariso n

T otal revenues – Segments 4 | in � mn

  • 1 | Internal total revenue growth excludes the effects of foreign currency translation as well as acquisitions and disposals. Please refer to page 52 for a reconciliation of nominal total revenue growth to internal total revenue growth for each of our segments and the Allianz Group as a whole.
  • 2 | Solvency according to the E.U. Financial Conglomerates Directive. Off-balance sheet reserves are accepted by the authorities as eligible capital only upon request. Allianz SE has not submitted an application so far. Excluding off-balance sheet reserves, the solvency ratio as of 30 September 2012 would be 181%.
  • 3 | Total revenues comprise statutory gross premiums written in Property-Casualty and in Life/Health, operating revenues in Asset Management and total revenues in Corporate and Other (Banking). For further information, please refer to page 51.
  • 4 | Total revenues include € (84) mn, € (23) mn and € (33) mn from consolidation for 3Q 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Propert y-Casualt y gross premiums written grew by 5.2 % to € 11,392 mn. On an internal basis, premiums increased by 1.7 % thanks to positive price effects, whereas volumes decreased slightly by 0.1 %. The majority of this revenue growth stemmed from Australia, Latin America, Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty (AG CS) and Germany, partly offset by a decline in the United States.

L i fe/Health statutory premiums increased from € 11,806 mn to € 11,912 mn, supported by positive foreign currency translation effects of € 307 mn. Premiums decreased by 1.6 %, on an internal basis, impacted by ongoing efforts to protect our margins.

In As s e t Management our internal revenue growth amounted to 25.5 %. This was in line with strong growth in total assets under management which, as of 30 September 2012, reached a record high of € 1,827 bn, as well as an increase in performance fees driven primarily by carried interest from maturing private funds. Third-party net inflows amounted to € 31 bn in the third quarter of 2012. On a nominal basis, revenue growth amounted to 39.1 %.

2012 to 2011 fir st Nine Mo nths co mpariso n

Even though the first nine months of 2012, like last year, have been challenging for the insurance industry, our revenues remained stable on an internal basis and, on a nominal basis, increased by 2.4 % to € 80,456 mn.

Operating Profit

2012 to 2011 Third quarter co mpariso n

Operating profit – Segments 1 | in � mn

Propert y-Casualt y operating profit improved by € 48 mn to € 1,159 mn. The underwriting result increased to € 342 mn mainly due to an improvement in our accident year loss ratio of 3.4 percentage points, supported by lower natural catastrophe claims. Our operating investment income declined by € 94 mn to € 795 mn largely driven by a lower dividend yield on equities and unfavorable foreign currency translation effects. Reduced losses from natural catastrophes were only partially offset by a less favorable run-off resulting in a 1.3 percentage points decrease in the combined ratio to 96.3 %.

Our L i fe/Health operating profit grew by € 302 mn to € 822 mn. This positive development was driven primarily by a higher operating investment result due to a significant decrease in impairments, partially offset by the corresponding policyholder participation.

Our As s e t Management business continued its outstanding performance – especially in the third quarter – and operating profit jumped € 312 mn to € 849 mn, reflecting higher assets under management, an increase in performance fees and positive foreign currency translation effects. This resulted in a strong cost-income ratio of 54.0 %. Our internal operating profit growth amounted to 40.9 %.

In Corporate and Ot her our operating loss increased by € 39 mn to € 272 mn. This was mainly related to Holding & Treasury due to lower interest and similar income and higher IT costs. Our Banking operations improved by € 9 mn largely due to an increase in trading income partly offset by higher administrative expenses. Alternative Investments operating result decreased by € 6 mn to € 3 mn.

2012 to 2011 fir st Nine months co mpariso n

Our operating profit improved from € 5,866 mn to € 7,226 mn, supported by all our operating segments. Higher operating investment result in Life/Health, higher assets under management and performance fees in Asset Management as well as lower claims from natural catastrophes in our Property-Casualty segment, all contributed to the positive growth.

Non-operating Result

2012 to 2011 Third quarter co mpariso n

Our non-operating Re sult improved by € 911 mn to a loss of € 351 mn, thanks to the much better non-operatin g investme nt Re sult in comparison to the impairment-burdened third quarter of last year.

non-operat ing income from financial asse t s and liabili t i es carried at fair value through income (NE T ) increased by € 301 mn to a loss of € 12 mn. This increase was largely due to the € 213 mn revaluation losses on The Hartford warrants in the third quarter of 2011 – which we sold in April 2012.

non-operating Realized gains and losses (ne t) decreased from € 314 mn to € 107 mn mainly driven by lower realizations on equities of € 100 mn. Realized gains on debt securities, and to a lesser extent from real estate, also decreased.

non-operating impairment s of investme nt s (ne t) dropped from the extraordinary high level in 2011 of € 931 mn to € 56 mn. The third quarter of 2011 was severely hit by the negative trend in equity markets which resulted in high impairments on investments in financial sector assets. In contrast, we saw positive developments in almost all equity markets during this quarter. Equity impairments amounted to € 24 mn compared to € 715 mn in the previous year quarter. Debt impairments also decreased – from € 206 mn to € 32 mn – as in 2011 we had to impair Greek sovereign bonds.

acquisition-relate d expenses increased slightly from € 37 mn to € 42 mn, of which PIMCO B-unit expenses1 amounted to € 40 mn.

Amo rtiz ation of intangible asse t s increased from € 23 mn to € 91 mn mainly due to a € 89 mn goodwill impairment on Selecta in the third quarter of 2012.

1 | When PIMCO was acquired, B-units were created, entitling senior management to profit participation. Under the B-unit plan, Allianz has the right to call, while PIMCO senior management has the right to put those B-units over several years. Fair value changes due to changes in operating earnings are reflected in acquisition-related expenses. The marginal difference between a higher call versus the put price upon any exercise, which is partially linked to the adherence to certain parameters, and distributions received by the senior management B-unit holders, is also included in our acquisition-related expenses.

2012 to 2011 fir st Nine months co mpariso n

Our non-operating Re sult improved by € 1,386 mn to a loss of € 736 mn, reflecting the significant improvement in our non-operating investment result. The nine-month comparison was also affected by the fact that 2011 was a particularly difficult year because of the European sovereign debt crisis, which led to debt and equity impairments.

Income Tax

2012 to 2011 Third quarter co mpariso n

income ta xes amounted to € 744 mn compared to € 386 mn and the effective tax rate was 34.1 % (3Q 2011: 60.0 %). The improvement in the tax rate in 2012 is mainly due to a higher tax charge from non-tax effective losses on equities in the third quarter of 2011.

2012 to 2011 Nine months co mpariso n

income ta xes increased by € 788 mn to € 2,288 mn in line with the higher pre-tax income for the first nine months of 2012. The effective tax rate amounted to 35.3 % (2011 9M: 40.1 %) and was above the expected level mainly due to trade taxes and prior year taxes.

Net Income

2012 to 2011 Third quarter co mpariso n

Our n e t income increased from € 258 mn to € 1,437 mn, as the third quarter 2011 was severely impacted by the financial market turmoil with high impairments. Our operating profit and non-operating result have since recovered, leading to the higher net income.

Ne t income att r ib utable to shareholders and non-controlling int eres t s amounted to € 1,344 mn (3Q 2011: € 196 mn) and € 93 mn (3Q 2011: € 62 mn), respectively. The net income attributable to non-controlling interests related mainly to Euler Hermes.

2012 to 2011 fir st Nine months co mpariso n

n e t income increased from € 2,244 mn to € 4,202 mn due to our good operational performance and the recovery of our non-operating investment result since the previous year which was heavily impacted by the European sovereign debt crisis and high natural catastrophes.

Risk Management

Risk management is an integral part of our business processes and supports our value-based management. For further information we refer you to the Risk Report in our 2011 Annual Report. The Allianz Group's management feels comfortable with the Group's overall risk profile and is confident that the Group's risk management framework can meet the challenges of a rapidly changing environment as well as day-to-day business needs. The risk profile described in the latest Risk Report remains unchanged.

ECB Chairman Draghi's pledge to go to any length in supporting the integrity of the Euro and the German Government's tacit agreement fostered tangible improvement in credit market sentiment and risk asset pricing in the third quarter of 2012. Nevertheless, in absolute terms, the European sovereign debt crisis remained a risk and markets were far from stable, as illustrated by the still sizable risk premia on certain peripheral bonds. While some Italian banks saw their credit ratings downgraded, risk assessments of Spanish banks in the third quarter remained stable prior to the definition of institute-specific capital needs for the sector in late September. Beyond the recapitalization support for the banking sector, investors anticipated additional demand for the Spanish Sovereign bonds based on the ability of the ECB to purchase Government bonds. Credit and equity markets remained volatile against a background of uncertainties concerning the timing and extent of such support for Spain and other Eurozone members.

For sovereigns considered a "safe haven", yields have continued to decline and some continue to hover around all-time lows. Depending on the individual investment strategy, a continuation of the low interest rate environment creates challenges for some life insurance companies, especially in delivering sufficient investment income to meet policyholders' future expectations and the long-term guarantees embedded in individual life insurance products.

Market volatility and the low interest rate environment may continue to have adverse implications on our business development, asset values and the theoretical value of our liabilities. In addition to continuously monitoring these developments, management has responded decisively to the external events by, for example, further adjusting product design and pricing in the Life/Health segment. In this context, we continue to de-risk our portfolios focusing on exposures to peripheral borrowers and financial institutions as well as our non-domestic investment portfolios to increase our resilience to even remote shock event scenarios.

◼ Ear nings Summary for the Third Quarter 2012

Gross premiums writt en amounted to € 11,392 mn, up 5.2 %, supported by positive price and foreign currency translation effects. On an internal basis, gross premiums increased by 1.7 % primarily stemming from our subsidiaries in Australia, Latin America, Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty (AGCS) and Germany. This positive development was partly offset by lower gross premiums in the United States.

Our operating profit grew by € 48 mn, or 4.3 %, to € 1,159 mn compared to the third quarter of 2011. The underwriting result increased by € 148 mn to € 342 mn, mainly due to an improvement in our accident year loss ratio following lower losses from natural catastrophes. Compared to the previous year's quarter, our operating investment income declined by € 94 mn to € 795 mn largely driven by a lower dividend yield on equities and unfavorable foreign currency translation effects.

The combined rat io improved from 97.6 % in the third quarter of 2011 to 96.3 % in the current quarter. The overall positive price development and lower losses from natural catastrophes more than offset a less favorable run-off.

Gross Premiums Written1

2012 to 2011 t hird quarter compariso n

Gross premiums writt en increased by 1.7 % due to a positive price effect of 1.8 % and a negative volume effect of 0.1 %. Most of the growth was attributable to price increases in our subsidiaries in Australia, Germany and France.

On a nominal basis, gross premiums written grew by 5.2 % – or € 560 mn – to € 11,392 mn. Favorable foreign currency translation effects accounted for € 383 mn of this growth, largely due to the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar, the Australian Dollar and the British Pound against the Euro.

Analyzing internal premium growth in terms of price and volume, we use four clusters based on 3Q 2012 internal growth over 3Q 2011:

◼ Clus t e r 1:

Overall growth – both price and volume effects are positive.

◼ Clus t e r 2:

Overall growth – either price or volume effects are positive.

◼ Clus t e r 3:

Overall decline – either price or volume effects are positive.

◼ Clus t e r 4:

Overall decline – both price and volume effects are negative.

Clus t er 1

In As ia - Pacific gross premiums amounted to € 170 mn. We grew by 21.9 % mainly driven by volume growth in our Malaysian motor business. The price effect was slightly positive at about 0.1 %.

Supported by a positive volume effect, gross premiums in L atin Am erica increased 20.5 % to € 566 mn. This was largely attributable to our motor business.

In Aus tr alia we recorded gross premiums of € 892 mn, including favorable foreign currency translation effects of € 93 mn. The 15.7 % growth benefited from tariff increases in our property and commercial motor business. The price effect was positive at about 14.1 %.

At AGCS gross premiums grew 7.3 % to € 1,145 mn driven by volume growth in our property business in Germany and in Asia-Pacific – mainly in our financial lines. We estimate an overall positive price effect of 0.8 %.

In France gross premiums amounted to € 787 mn, up 4.4 %, mainly benefiting from tariff increases in both retail and commercial lines. This led to a positive price effect of about 3.5 %.

In the Un ited Kingdom we recorded gross premiums of € 593 mn, including favorable foreign currency translation effects of € 58 mn. The growth of 1.9 % was driven by tariff increases in the liability lines. The price effect was positive at approximately 1.8 %.

In Italy gross premiums increased 1.3 % to € 836 mn reflecting tariff increases in our motor business and double-digit growth in direct channels. The growth in motor more than offset volume losses in our non-motor business resulting from the highly competitive market, economic stagnation and our strict underwriting rules. We estimate the overall price effect to be 0.8 %.

Clus t er 2

In our Cr ed it Insurance business, gross premiums grew 6.1 % to € 485 mn thanks to new customers and increased insured turnover, especially in growth markets. Pressure on prices led to a negative price effect of about 1.3 %.

In GERMANY we recorded gross premiums of € 1,891 mn, up 3.2 %. We benefited from a positive price effect of about 3.4 %, particularly in our motor business, which more than offset the slight volume decrease.

Clus t er 3

In Switzerland gross premiums stood at € 269 mn. We achieved a positive volume effect which was more than offset by a negative price effect of about 2.5 %.

In Spain gross premiums decreased 3.6 % to € 433 mn. This decline is largely attributable to one specific fleet contract which was not renewed. The economic recession put intense pressure on prices, especially in our commercial property lines which led to a negative price effect of approximately 3.7 %. Despite the tough market conditions, we achieved a slight increase in volume.

In the Unit ed Stat e s we recorded gross premiums of € 1,615 mn. Excluding favorable foreign currency translation effects of € 184 mn, gross premiums fell by 12.5 % primarily attributable to lower premiums in the current quarter in our crop business mainly due to lower commodity prices compared to the previous year's quarter. Our retail and commercial lines also showed a slight decrease. The price effect was positive at about 0.8 %.

Clus t er 4

In Central and E as t ern Europe gross premiums decreased to € 567 mn, including unfavorable foreign currency translation effects of € 2 mn. The decrease of 5.0 % was mainly attributable to our motor business in Poland as well as to industrial property business in Russia and selective underwriting in our Russian health portfolio.

2012 to 2011 f ir s t Nine Months compariso n

On an internal basis, Gross premiums writt en increased by 2.5 % benefiting from a positive volume effect of 1.1 % and a positive price effect of 1.4 %. On a nominal basis, gross premiums grew 4.6 % to € 36,915 mn.

2012 TO 2011 THIRD QUARTER COMPAR IS ON

OPERATIN G PROFIT amounted to € 1,159 mn, up € 48 mn.

Our UNDERWRITIN G RESULT grew by € 148 mn to € 342 mn. This increase was mainly due to an improvement in our accident year loss ratio of 3.4 percentage points supported by lower natural catastrophe claims, partially offset by a less favorable run-off compared to the third quarter of 2011.

Our OPERATIN G INVES TMEN T INCOME decreased € 94 mn to € 795 mn mainly driven by lower interest and similar income (net of interest expenses).

The COMBINED RATIO improved by 1.3 percentage points to 96.3 %. The overall positive price development and lower losses from natural catastrophes more than offset a less favorable run-off.

Our ACCIDENT YEAR LOSS RATIO was 70.7 %, down 3.4 percentage points from the previous year. Net losses from natural catastrophes decreased from € 413 mn to € 83 mn. The impact from natural catastrophes decreased by 3.2 percentage points to 0.8 percentage points as the previous year's quarter was impacted by a series of thunderstorms in Germany and Hurricane "Irene" in the United States.

Excluding natural catastrophes, our accident year loss ratio was 69.9 %, improving 0.2 percentage points compared to the third quarter of 2011. This was mainly attributable to a favorable development in claims frequency in our motor business and positive price momentum. These favorable developments were partly offset by losses in the United States from our crop business due to severe drought.

The following operations contributed positively to the development of our accident year loss ratio:

  • ◾ Germany: 2.4 percentage points. The positive impact was due to more benign weather compared to the previous year, favorable price trends and reduced large claims.
  • ◾ ITALY : 0.5 percentage points. This was supported by a positive development in claims frequency and a higher average premium in third-party motor liability – as well as strict profitability management.
  • ◾ CREDIT: 0.2 percentage points. This was due to higher reinsurance recoveries.
  • ◾ FRANCE : 0.1 percentage points. This was supported by positive price momentum, in both retail and commercial lines.
  • ◾ AGCS : 0.1 percentage points. The positive impact was mainly a result of lower losses from natural catastrophes. This was partly counterbalanced by larger losses in our energy and property lines of business.
  • ◾ REINSURANCE : 0.1 percentage points. This improvement was attributable to the lower burden of losses from natural catastrophes compared to the previous year.

The following operations contributed negatively to the development of the accident year loss ratio:

  • ◾ UNITED KIN GDOM : 0.3 percentage points. The main driver for the deterioration was higher losses in commercial liabilities.
  • ◾ UNITED STATES: 0.1 percentage points. This was mainly due to the severe drought which affected our crop business, slightly exceeding losses from natural catastrophes in the previous year's quarter.

Our RUN-OFF RESULT declined by € 212 mn, or 2.1 percentage points, to € 160 mn. This decline was attributable to additional reserve strengthening in the United States in the third quarter of 2012 versus 2011. Furthermore, the third quarter of 2011 had benefited from the release of Allianz Group's asbestos reserves of € 130 mn.

Total expenses stood at € 2,923 mn, compared to € 2,786 mn in the previous year. Our EXPENSE RATIO was stable at 27.1 %.

2012 TO 2011 F IR S T NINE MONTHS COMPAR IS ON

OPERATIN G PROFIT increased by € 357 mn to € 3,460 mn driven by higher profitability in our core European markets of Italy and Germany, but also in Australia, and in our Reinsurance business. A partial negative offsetting effect came from less favorable run-off.

Our COMBINED RATIO improved by 1.3 percentage points to 96.6 % mainly due to a lower burden from natural catastrophe claims. The first nine months of 2011 were heavily impacted by exceptionally high losses amounting to € 1,324 mn. In the first nine months of 2012, natural catastrophe losses totaled € 298 mn. Additionally, our combined ratio improved due to a favorable pricing environment. A slight increase in large losses and a less favorable run-off had a partly offsetting effect.

Operating INVES TMEN T INCOME decreased by € 82 mn to € 2,495 mn. The other result remained rather stable.

t h i r d q u a r t e r 2012

  • ◾ Statutory premiums stable at € 11.9 bn.
  • ◾ Operating profit increased by € 302 mn driven by a rebounding operating investment result.

◼ Se gment Overvi ew

Allianz offers a broad range of life, savings and investment-oriented products, including individual and group life insurance contracts. Via our distribution channels – mainly tied agents, brokers and bank partnerships – we offer life and health products for both private and corporate clients. As one of the worldwide market leaders in life business we serve customers in more than 45 countries.

◼ key figures

◼ Ear ningS Su mmary for the thi rd Quarter 2012

STATUT ORY Premiums increased slightly to € 11,912 mn, supported by positive foreign currency translation effects of € 307 mn. On an internal basis 2 , premiums decreased by 1.6 % which was broadly in line with our expectations. Revenues were impacted by the continuing difficult environment in some of our major markets and our ongoing efforts to protect our margin through pricing actions. We saw an increase in traditional product sales in Spain, France and Asia-Pacific. Sales growth of investment-oriented products in a number of our markets was more than offset by a decline in the United States and Germany. The decrease also reflected the discontinuation of selling new business in Japan since year-end 2011.

Operating prof i t increased by € 302 mn to € 822 mn, driven by a higher operating investment result after being impacted by the effects of the financial market turmoil in the third quarter of 2011.

Margin on re serve s increased from 50 to 74 basis points, due to the improved operating profit.

1 | Represents operating profit divided by the average of current quarter end and prior quarter end net reserves, whereby net reserves equal reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses, reserves for insurance and investment contracts and financial liabilities for unit-linked contracts less reinsurance assets.

Statutory Premiums1

2012 to 2011 thi rd quarter compariso n

In the following section, we comment on the development of our statutory premiums written on an internal basis, i.e. adjusted for foreign currency translation and (de-)consolidation effects in order to provide more comparable information.

In Belgium/Luxembou rg we recorded premiums of € 486 mn, an increase of 85.5 %, mainly resulting from our investmentoriented products in Luxembourg, which is largely related to French originated business. This was marginally offset by a minor decrease in employee benefit product sales in Belgium to sustain profitability in the current interest rate environment.

In Switzerland premiums totaled € 283 mn. Adjusting for negative foreign currency translation effects of € 10 mn, premiums grew by 26.3 %. Increased single premiums in our group life investment-oriented business – mainly driven by new business generated through acquisition-related employee growth of a major client – more than offset the minor decrease in regular premiums in our individual traditional business.

Despite the continuing recessionary market environment, including high unemployment and turmoil in the banking industry, premiums in spain increased 19.4 % to € 234 mn. The ongoing positive trend in individual traditional product and long-term investment-oriented product sales was supported by an extraordinary one-off pension contract.

In Asia-pacific premiums increased 9.4 % to € 1,405 mn, after adjusting for positive foreign currency translation effects of € 108 mn. Sales of unit-linked products rose in Taiwan - following a reduction in competitor sales due to a necessary market repricing in July 2012. In South Korea single premium investment-oriented product business strongly increased throughout the quarter. However, in line with our competitors, we stopped selling one of our major growth products in September 2012, due to the low interest rate environment as well as the imminent termination of associated tax advantages. In Japan premiums declined by € 105 mn reflecting the discontinuation of selling new business.

1 | Statutory premiums are gross premiums written from sales of life and health insurance policies as well as gross receipts from sales of unit-linked and other investment-oriented products, in accordance with the statutory accounting practices applicable in the insurer's home jurisdiction.

Premiums in France grew 6.9 % – € 121 mn on an internal basis – to € 1,877 mn. An increase of approximately € 200 mn was attributable to our internal reinsurance of partnership business with our Belgium/Luxembourg operations. This more than compensated for the decrease in single premium traditional products distributed by other partnerships.

In our Ge rman life business, premiums decreased 4.5 % to € 3,311 mn. This decrease was largely attributable to single premium investment-oriented products. Overall, we saw a positive product mix shift to regular premiums while the share of individual life business volumes remained stable. Premiums in our German health business increased 1.7 % to € 819 mn. Sales of new supplementary coverage compensated for the slight decrease in full health care coverage.

In italy premiums decreased 3.0 % to € 1,338 mn. The market environment remained extremely difficult with a significant decline in the individual life business primarily driven by lower volumes in the bancassurance sales channel as banks focused on selling local sovereign bonds and own products rather than insurance products. Higher sales of investmentoriented products distributed by Agents and Financial Advisors partially compensated for this decrease.

Premiums in Central and east ern europ e decreased 16.3 % to € 218 mn, after adjusting for € 1 mn adverse foreign currency translation effects. Increased sales of investment-oriented products in the Czech Republic and growth in Russia partially offset the decline from high third quarter levels in 2011, driven by sales campaigns, in Poland and Hungary.

Premiums in the United s tate s declined to € 1,740 mn, representing a decrease of 18.6 % after excluding a positive foreign currency translation effect of € 199 mn. This development was driven by a drop in both fixed-indexed and variable annuity sales. The downturn in both lines reflects product and commission changes that were implemented in the second and third quarter of 2012 in reaction to low interest rates.

2012 to 2011 fir st NINE MONTHS compariso n

S TATUT ORY Premiums were 1.5 % below the first nine months of 2011 and amounted to € 38,472 mn. On an internal basis, premiums decreased by 3.3 %. The decline in premiums in Italy, the United States, Japan and Germany was partly offset by higher revenues in Belgium/Luxembourg, Indonesia and South Korea.

Operating Profit

2012 to 2011 thi rd quarter compariso n

Our Operating profit amounted to € 822 mn. The increase of € 302 mn was driven by a higher operating investment result that benefited from lower impairments on equities versus the third quarter of 2011. This higher investment result was partially offset by a corresponding increase in policyholder participation.

Intere st and similar income (net of intere st expense s) increased by € 120 mn and amounted to € 4,145 mn. We recorded growth in interest income from debt securities due to a higher asset base – more than offsetting the modest decline in interest yield and the marginal decrease in dividends.

Operating income from f inancial ass e ts and liabi litie s carried at fair value through income (net) improved by € 205 mn to a loss of € 120 mn. This increase was mainly due to the favorable impact of the equity market performance on our Fair Value Option assets in France and a positive trading result in the United States compared to the third quarter of 2011. While derivatives – used to hedge stock price and interest rate movements – contributed adversely to this development. Gains resulting from foreign currency hedges more than offset the foreign currency translation losses in Germany.

Operating realized gains and loss e s (net) remained stable at € 596 mn. Higher realizations on debt investments were offset by lower realized gains on equity investments.

Operating impairment s on inve stment s (net) amounted to € 68 mn, a decline of € 911 mn. Compared to the third quarter of 2011, which was hit by the turmoil of the financial markets, equity impairments decreased significantly in particular in Germany, France and Italy. Lower impairments on debt investments also contributed to the favorable development as the comparable quarter in 2011 had been primarily burdened by impairments on Greek sovereign bonds.

claims and insurance benefit s incurred (net) remained stable at € 4,550 mn.

Change s in re s erve s for i nsurance and inve s tment contract s (net) increased significantly by € 907 mn to € 3,422 mn. This was largely driven by policyholder participation in the higher operating investment result.

Inv e stment expense s decreased from € 210 mn to € 189 mn as a result of lower expenses for real estate maintenance and repair in Germany.

Acqui sit ion and admini st r ative expense s (net) were up by € 264 mn to € 1,302 mn. The slight decrease in administrative expenses only partially offset higher acquisition costs.

Margin on re serve s increased from 50 to 74 basis points, following the improvement in the operating profit.

2012 to 2011 fir st NINE MONTHS compariso n

Operating profit increased by € 568 mn to € 2,469 mn, mainly due to a higher operating investment result driven by higher realized gains and significantly lower impairments on equity and debt investments, which had burdened the investment result in the first nine months of 2011. The results were also supported by higher interest income from debt investments as a consequence of the higher asset base. This positive development was partly offset by higher policyholder participation as a result of the improved operating investment result and increased acquisition costs.

Margin on re serve s improved from 62 to 76 basis points, mainly as a result of a higher operating profit.

◼ Se gment Overvi ew

Allianz offers Asset Management products and services for third-party investors and the Allianz Group's insurance operations. We serve a wide range of retail and institutional clients worldwide with investment and distribution capacities in all major markets. Our particular strongholds are in the United States, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Based on total assets under management, we are one of the largest asset managers in the world managing third-party assets with active investment strategies.

◼ key figures

◼ Ear nings Su mmary for the thi rd Quarter 2012

Our Operating revenues increased by € 519 mn, or 39.1 %, to € 1,845 mn. On an internal basis, operating revenues grew by 25.5 % compared to the third quarter of 2011, benefiting from the robust growth in our assets under management and an increase in performance fees. We recorded strong net inflows in our third-party assets under management of € 31 bn.

As a result, we achieved an operating prof it of € 849 mn, an increase of € 312 mn. On an internal basis 1 , our operating profit grew by 40.9 %.

The cos t-income ratio of 54.0 % improved by 5.5 percentage points compared to the third quarter of the previous year, also supported by the increase in performance fees.

Assets under Management

As of 30 September 2012, total assets under management reached a new record high of € 1,827 bn consisting of third-party assets of € 1,419 bn and € 408 bn of Allianz Group assets. We show the development of total assets under management based on asset classes as they are relevant for the segment's business development.

Development of total asse ts under management | in € bn

In the first nine months of 2012, we achieved impressive growth with net inflows of € 73 bn all of which came from third-party assets under management. We registered strong net inflows in all regions, particularly in the United States and Europe. Our fixed income net flows added € 76 bn while our equities saw net outflows of € 3 bn.

Favorable market developments contributed an additional € 140 bn, mainly driven by fixed income – with € 124 bn – and equities with € 16 bn. These were partly offset by negative effects of € 56 bn, which were primarily related to a reclassification from "assets under management" to "assets under administration" with no impact on our revenue base. In addition, we recorded favorable foreign currency translation effects of € 13 bn, largely resulting from the slight appreciation of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro 1 .

In the following section, we focus on the development of third-party assets under management.

Third-Part y As s e ts under Management | in %

The regional split of third-party assets under management shifted slightly. Driven by strong net inflows, positive market conditions and favorable foreign currency translation effects, the United States increased its share by 2.2 percentage points to 65.4 %. Germany decreased by 1.8 percentage points to 7.5 %, mainly due to the reclassification from "assets under management" to "assets under administration".

Overall, the share of third-party assets from fixed income and equities remained unchanged at 89 % and 11 % respectively.

2 | Retrospective figures as of 31 December 2011 are not provided since the composition of total assets under management is impacted by the new structure for Asset Management in effect since 1 January 2012.

1 | Based on the closing rate on the respective balance sheet dates.

3 | Based on the origin of assets by the asset management company.

4 | The region "Other" consists of third-party assets managed by other Allianz Group companies (approximately € 28 bn as of 30 September 2012 and € 26 bn as of 31 December 2011, respectively).

Supported by strong net inflows from our retail clients, the share of third-party assets under management between retail and institutional clients changed slightly, with a two percentage point increase in favor of our retail clients to 36 % versus 64 % for institutional clients.

rol ling investme nt performance of PIMCO and AGI1 | in %

The overall investment performance of our AAM business was exceptional, with 93 % outperforming their respective benchmarks (31 December 2011: 89 %). PIMCO recorded an outstanding performance of 97 % versus its respective benchmarks, with AGI outperforming 65 % of its benchmarks.

Operating Revenues

2012 to 2011 thi rd quarter co mpariso n

Our Operating revenues increased by € 519 mn, or 39.1 %, to € 1,845 mn. This reflects further growth in assets under management and an increase in performance fees. On an internal basis, operating revenues went up 25.5 %.

Our Ne t fee and commission incom e grew by € 486 mn to € 1,821 mn. This was largely due to higher management fees in line with the higher asset base. Driven primarily by carried interest from maturing private funds, our perfor m a n c e fees increased by € 239 mn to € 284 mn.

Income from financial asse t s and liabilities carried at fair value through income (ne t) amounted to € 10 mn, up € 31 mn, benefiting from positive effects of mark-to-market valuations of seed money in the United States.

2012 to 2011 fir st nine months co mpariso n

Our Operating revenues grew by € 879 mn – or 22.5 % – to € 4,781 mn supported by higher assets under management and an increase in our performance fees. On an internal basis, operating revenues grew by 12.6 %.

1 | On 1 January 2012, we brought our PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors (AGI) business units under the common governance of Allianz Asset Management Holding (AAM). Therefore, we show the rolling investment performance of PIMCO and AGI versus their respective benchmarks. In addition, we enhanced our investment performance measurement methodology. For comparability, the enhanced methodology is applied retrospectively. The investment performance is based on Allianz Asset Management account-based, asset-weighted three-year investment performance of third-party assets versus the primary target including all accounts managed by equity and fixed income managers of Allianz Asset Management. For some retail funds, the net of fee performance is compared to the median performance of the corresponding Morningstar peer group (first and second quartile mean outperformance). For all other retail funds and for all institutional accounts, the gross of fee performance (revaluated based on closing prices) is compared to the respective benchmark based on different metrics.

Operating Profit

2012 to 2011 thi rd quarter co mpariso n

We achieved an outstanding op er ating prof it of € 849 mn, up 58.1 %, benefiting from growth in our assets under management, an increase in performance fees and a strong cost-income ratio. Excluding both the impact of foreign currency translation effects of € 86 mn1 and consolidation/deconsolidation effects of € 9 mn, internal growth amounted to 40.9 %.

Administr ative expenses increased to € 996 mn in line with the favorable business development and the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro. On an internal basis, administrative expenses increased by 14.9 %.

Revenue growth continued to exceed the increase in our operational cost base. This resulted in a 5.5 percentage point improvement in our cost-income ratio to 54.0 %.

2012 to 2011 fir st nine months co mpariso n

Our operating prof it amounted to € 2,097 mn – an increase of 31.6 %. On an internal basis, operating profit grew by 19.6 %. This outstanding performance resulted from higher assets under management and an increase in performance fees as well as from an improvement of the cost-income ratio by 3.1 percentage points to 56.1 %.

◼ Ea rnings Su mmary for the third Quarter 2012

Our Operating result worsened by € 39 mn to a loss of € 272 mn. This was almost entirely driven by a higher loss in Holding & Treasury. The operating result improved in Banking by € 9 mn and was partly offset by a € 6 mn decrease in our Alternative Investments' operating result.

Earnings Summary – Holding & Treasury

2012 to 2011 t hird quarter co mpariso n

Holding & Treasury's operating result worsened by € 41 mn to a loss of € 275 mn. This was due to lower operating revenues and higher operating expenses.

Our net interest Result weakened by € 11 mn to a loss of € 47 mn. Interest and similar income amounted to € 58 mn, a decrease of € 17 mn compared to the previous year's quarter. This reflects lower income on debt securities as a result of lower interest yields – partly offset by higher income from associates. The decline in interest and similar income could only be partially compensated for by the slight reduction in In t e r e s t e x p e n s e s , e xc l u d i n g i n t e r e s t expenses from external debt, which amounted to € 105 mn (3Q 2011: € 111 mn).

Our net fee and commission Re sult declined by € 24 mn to a loss of € 35 mn. This downturn was driven by unrecovered costs within our internal IT service provider.

Administrative expenses (net), excluding acquisition-related expenses , were up by € 10 mn to € 165 mn. This increase was primarily attributable to higher pension costs and salaries mainly due to the increased business of our internal IT service provider.

Operating income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income remained almost stable at € (7) mn (3Q 2011: € (5) mn).

2012 to 2011 fir st nine months co mpariso n

The operating loss grew by € 101 mn and amounted to € 726 mn. This increase largely resulted from a lower net interest result, which was a consequence of lower equity related returns (dividends and income from associates) and interest yields. To a lesser extent it was attributable to a lower net fee and commission result.

2012 to 2011 t hird quarter co mpariso n

Overall, the operating result of € 0 mn was € 9 mn above the previous year's level. This improvement was primarily driven by higher operating income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value (trading income), partly offset by an increase in administrative expenses.

Our net interest, fee and commission result increased slightly by € 2 mn to € 138 mn. Overall, the decline in our interest and similar income was completely offset by lower interest expenses, driven by lower interest yields, resulting in a stable net interest result of € 89 mn. Net fee and commission income also remained almost flat at € 49 mn (3Q 2011: € 47 mn).

operating income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value (trading income) amounted to € 6 mn, compared to a loss of € 8 mn in the third quarter of 2011. This improvement was largely due to changed interest rates and spreads.

Administrative expenses increased by € 5 mn to € 129 mn due to higher expenses related to our financial advisors network in Italy.

Our loan loss provisions remained unchanged at € 13 mn.

Our operating result worsened by € 5 mn to a loss of € 36 mn. A € 13 mn increase in our net interest, fee and commission result and € 11 mn lower administrative expenses were more than offset by the negative development of our loan loss provisions, which were up by € 39 mn. This increase in provisions was mainly due to financial guarantees within certain unit-linked products related to peripheral sovereign bonds, which were largely sold by the end of the second quarter.

Economic Outlook

As we approach the end of 2012, the economic outlook remains clouded by uncertainty. In order to achieve at least a moderate recovery in global economic activity, it is crucial that the sovereign debt crisis in the Eurozone gradually subsides. The prospects for this have improved in recent months. The German Federal Constitutional Court ruling in mid-September paved the way for the swift establishment of the European Stability Mechanism (ESM ). In conjunction with measures taken by the European Central Bank (ECB), and providing national policymakers push ahead with consolidation and structural reforms and European policymakers make further headway on economic and political integration, there are reasons to hope we are moving closer to a resolution of the debt crisis. This is one of the two central premises upon which our outlook rests. The second main assumption relates to the Middle East and North Africa region, where we anticipate we will be spared any dramatic escalation, even though the political situation remains tense.

Based on these assumptions, the world economy is likely to regain some momentum in the coming months. Global output is expected to grow by 2.9 % next year, following an increase of about 2.4 % this year. On both sides of the Atlantic, public and private sector consolidation needs, due to high debt levels, will continue to restrain economic activity. Monetary policy, however, is still very accommodative in the United States, Japan and Europe and overall favorable financing conditions are providing economic impetus for private households and the corporate sector alike. A monetary tightening in the Eurozone is unlikely before late 2013 and in the United States it might take even longer. The emerging markets remain key drivers of global growth, although their future growth rates will be lower than in previous years. We expect the emerging markets to expand by 4.6 % this year and 5.5 % next year. By way of comparison: from 2004 to 2008, the annual growth rate averaged 7.2 %.

In the United States, economic growth will probably be very moderate – at around 2.0 % – both this year and next. Hurricane "Sandy" will very likely add to volatility in economic indicators, as the inevitable disruptions to economic activity will be followed by additional demand from reconstruction work. Looking ahead to 2013, the downside risks are considerable due to the sizeable fiscal policy uncertainties. In the Eurozone, we expect to see a gradual recovery in 2013, following a slight decline in overall economic activity this year. The arguments in support of this include: political successes in getting to grips with the crisis that will boost confidence levels among economic players, the substantial support provided by the ECB's monetary policy and the relatively low external value of the Euro. Nevertheless, budgetary consolidation will exert a drag on the domestic economy. Furthermore, developments still vary considerably from country to country. Real GDP in the Eurozone is expected to grow by 0.5 % in 2013, following a decline of 0.3 % this year. The German economy will continue to outperform the Eurozone average thanks to robust domestic demand, a stable labor market and relatively low public sector consolidation needs. Following real GDP growth of 0.8 % this year, we expect an increase of 1.5 % next year.

Financial market jitters related to the European sovereign debt crisis have decreased in recent weeks. However, German government bonds continue to be considered a "safe haven", with yields on 10-year bonds hovering around 1.5 %. Provided the debt crisis abates, the "safe haven" effect will start to fade somewhat and yields on German government bonds are likely to creep up modestly. The picture is the same for 10-year U.S. Treasury yields, which are currently only slightly higher than those on German bonds. When the debt crisis abates, spreads on other EMU government bonds are likely to narrow gradually, although their level will remain high. As far as the stock market is concerned, low interest rates and relatively attractive price/earnings ratios provide a sound foundation for further gains in equities. However, as we have seen repeatedly in recent months, a renewed pick-up in risk aversion can easily send stock markets down again, no matter how positive corporate sector fundamentals appear to be.

Industry Outlook

The economic outlook for the next two years is more of the same sub-optimal growth we have experienced through 2012. As a consequence, world premium growth will be slow, with fairly robust growth in emerging markets outpacing that in developed markets. Any comprehensive solution to the Euro crisis will take time, as will the structural reforms needed to boost competitiveness and growth. Therefore, financial markets are expected to remain unsettled and interest rates to stay at very low levels to support the economy. Against this backdrop, we forecast a muted earnings outlook for the industry that will also be impacted by expected further investment de-risking. While balance sheets for the most part are likely to remain relatively strong, they will continue to be affected by financial market volatility and clouded by the uncertain future of Solvency II in Europe.

In the property-casualty sector, we anticipate that the modest increase in premium rates in 2011 and 2012 will continue in 2013, despite the need for further increases to offset the impact of low investment yields. Consequently, premium growth will also remain sluggish in advanced markets where the headwinds of low economic growth and high unemployment depress insurance demand. However, in emerging markets, robust economic growth, rising incomes and heightened risk awareness will drive stronger premium growth.

In the life sector, we expect relatively low interest rates to continue, limiting sales and profitability in mature markets. However, growth in emerging markets is expected to remain robust. Competition with banks in the short-term savings market is also expected to persist – to the detriment of bancassurance life sales. If interest rates continue to be low, as anticipated, we also envisage that the life business mix will continue to slowly evolve towards more attractive unit-linked and protection business. As this shift takes place we expect new business profitability and the quality of earnings to gradually improve on a risk-adjusted basis.

Due to the persistent uncertainty regarding the further development of the global economy as well as the surrounding political conditions, financial markets are expected to stay volatile well into 2013 and flow expectations for the Asset Management industry remain subdued. Assuming that economic growth rates in the main OECD markets will continue to lag behind the long-term trends – due to high national debt levels and the growing propensity of private households to save – the short-term growth prospects will be limited by the conditions in the market environment, both in the fixed income and the equity space. Further, it is hard to tell how the development of the global regulatory environment will impact the Asset Management industry (e.g. due to potentially increased administrative and equity requirements).

Outlook for the Allianz Group

The Allianz Group remains strongly capitalized with a solvency ratio of 190 %. 1

Compared to the first nine months of 2011, our operating profit grew strongly by 23.2 % to € 7,226 mn. All our operating segments made a significant contribution to the positive development. Life/Health operating profit was strong mainly thanks to a higher operating investment result as last year was heavily burdened by impairments. Our Property-Casualty business benefited from lower losses from natural catastrophes. The growth and performance of our Asset Management segment continued to be outstanding and achieved a record level of operating profit in the third quarter.

Following this strong operating performance, we expect the 2012 full year operating profit to exceed € 9 bn, assuming no adverse developments during the remainder of the year. This is a change in comparison to our previously stated outlook which was € 8.2 bn, plus or minus € 0.5 bn.

However, net income development will continue to be influenced by balance sheet strengthening including investment de-risking and restructuring activities.

This outlook considers preliminary estimates regarding the impacts of hurricane "Sandy" as per date of ratification of this interim report (8 November 2012). As common with such large catastrophes, comprehensive and reliable loss estimates from all our affected clients across our various business segments and operating entities can only be made weeks or even months after the event. Furthermore, as always, other natural catastrophes, adverse developments in the capital markets as well as subsequent events and factors stated in our cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements, may also affect the results of our operations.

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements

The statements contained herein may include prospects, future expectations and other forward-looking statements that are based on management's current views and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Actual results, performance or events may differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. Such deviations may arise, without limitation, because of changes in the general economic condition and competitive situation, particularly in the Allianz Group's core business and core markets, or the impact of acquisitions, related integration issues and reorganization measures. Deviations may also arise from the frequency and severity of insured loss events, including natural catastrophes, and from the development of loss expenses, mortality and morbidity levels and trends, persistency levels, and, particularly in our banking business, the extent of credit defaults. In addition, the performance of the financial markets (particularly market volatility, liquidity and credit defaults) as well as changes in interest rate levels, currency exchange rates and changes in national and international laws and regulations, particularly tax regulation, may have a relevant impact. Many of these factors may be more likely to occur, or more pronounced, as a result of terrorist activities and their consequences. The company assumes no obligation to update any forwardlooking statement.

Allianz SE has not submitted an application so far. Excluding off-balance sheet reserves, the solvency ratio as of 30 September 2012 would be 181%.

i. Balance Sheet Review

  • ◾ Shareholders' equity increased by € 7.0 bn to € 51.9 bn.
  • ◾ Strong solvency ratio up by 11 percentage points to 190 %.1

Shareholders' Equity2

As of 30 September 2012, shareholders' equity increased by € 7,000 mn – or 15.6 % – to € 51,915 mn compared to 31 December 2011, despite dividend payments of € 2,037 mn in May 2012. This growth was largely driven by the net income attributable to shareholders of € 3,949 mn and the rise in unrealized gains of € 4,755 mn. The latter was fueled by our debt securities, which benefited from the reduction of selected sovereign yields and lower interest rates.

Regulatory Capital Adequacy

The Allianz Group is a financial conglomerate within the scope of the E.U. Financial Conglomerates Directive and the related German law in force since 2005. The law requires that a financial conglomerate calculates the capital available to meet its solvency requirements on a consolidated basis, which we refer to as "eligible capital".

1 | Off-balance sheet reserves are accepted by the authorities as eligible capital only upon request. Allianz SE has not submitted an application so far. Excluding off-balance sheet reserves, the solvency ratio as of 30 September 2012 would be 181% (30 June 2012: 177%, 31 December 2011: 170%).

Conglomerate so lvency1 | in € bn

Our co nglomerate so lvency ratio has strengthened by 11 percentage points to 190 % since the end of 2011. As of 30 September 2012, the Group's eligible capital for solvency purposes amounted to € 46.3 bn (31 December 2011: € 42.6 bn), including an off-balance sheet reserve of € 2.2 bn (31 December 2011: € 2.2 bn). The increase of € 3.7 bn was largely driven by our net income (net of accrued dividends) of € 2.4 bn. The required funds went up by € 0.6 bn to € 24.4 bn, mainly due to higher aggregate policy reserves in our Life/Health business. Thus, our eligible capital surpassed the minimum legally stipulated level by € 21.9 bn and our already strong solvency position improved further.

Total Assets and Total Liabilities

In the following sections, we show the asset allocation for our insurance portfolio and analyze important developments in the balance sheets of our segments.

As of 30 September 2012, total assets amounted to € 688.0 bn and total liabilities were € 633.6 bn. Compared to year-end 2011, total assets and total liabilities increased by € 46.5 bn and € 39.3 bn, respectively.

This section mainly focuses on our financial investments in debt instruments, equities, real estate and cash and other as well as on our insurance reserves and external financing, since these reflect the major developments in our balance sheet.

In the third quarter of 2012, Financial market developments revealed a mixed picture.

Stock market indices in Europe and the United States overcame second quarter declines and experienced a positive development. Although German and U.S. government bond yields remained on a low level, compared to the end of the second quarter 2012, U.S. government bond yields stabilized while German government bond yields decreased. Yields on Italian government bonds dropped in the first half of 2012 and decreased further by the end of September.

In the first nine months of 2012, U.S. and European corporate credit spreads for A-rated debtors narrowed.

S tructure of inve s tmen t s – port fo l io overview

The Allianz Group's investment portfolio is mainly derived from our core business of insurance. The following portfolio overview covers the insurance segments and the Corporate and Other segment.

This investment portfolio increased by € 36.4 bn, or 7.9 %, to € 497.5 bn. This was mainly due to the investment performance of our underlying operating businesses, primarily from our Life/Health segment. Overall, the asset allocation remained stable.

Our gross exposure to equitie s grew slightly from € 28.8 bn to € 28.9 bn, driven by market improvements and a partially offsetting effect from realizations. Our equity gearing – a ratio of our equity holdings allocated to the shareholder after policyholder participation and hedges to shareholder's equity plus off-balance sheet reserves less goodwill – dropped 7 percentage points from 31 % to 24 %, predominantly due to the growth in shareholders' equity.

The vast majority of our investment portfolio is comprised of debt instrument s . Our investments in this asset class rose 8.7 % to € 452.8 bn, mainly due to lower interest rates and reinvested interest flows. Our exposure in this asset class was well diversified, with 60 % in government and covered bonds. In line with our operating business profile, 61 % of our fixed income portfolio was invested in Eurozone bonds and loans. About 95 % of our portfolio of debt instruments 1 was invested in investment-grade bonds and loans.

Our exposure to rEa l e state held for investment increased slightly to € 8.9 bn (31 December 2011: € 8.7 bn).

Fixed income portfolio as of 30 September 2012: 452.8 bn [as of 31 December 2011: 416.5 bn]

Our total sovereign exposu re amounted to € 167.4 bn, which equals 37 % of our fixed income portfolio. In the first nine months of 2012, we reduced our investments in Spanish, Portuguese, Greek and Irish sovereign bonds. As of 30 September 2012, our sovereign bond exposure in Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece and Ireland comprised approximately 7.6 % of our fixed income portfolio, of which about 0.6 % was in Spain and 7.0 % in Italy.

Reflecting primarily the decline in yields on Italian government bonds, unrealized losses (gross) on the above mentioned sovereign bond exposures decreased by € 3,115 mn to € 598 mn compared to 31 December 2011.

51 % of the covered bonds were German Pfandbriefe, backed by either public sector loans or mortgage loans. Another 15 % and 9 % of our covered bonds portfolio were allocated to France and Spain, respectively. Covered bonds provide a cushion against real estate price deterioration and payment defaults through minimum required security buffers and over-collateralization.

Due to a reduction in the Tier 2 share, our exposure to subordinated securities in banks amounted to € 7.0 bn, representing a decrease of € 1.4 bn compared to year-end 2011.

Our portfolio included asset-backed securities (ABS) of € 20.9 bn (31 December 2011: € 19.9 bn), of which more than 80 % were related to mortgage backed securities (MBS). Around 25 % of our ABS securities are made up of MBS issued by U.S. agencies which are backed by the U.S. government. Overall, 97 % of the total ABS portfolio received an investment grade rating, with 87 % rated "AA " or better (31 December 2011: 84 %).

Overall, the reduction of our exposure to equities and bonds of selected European peripheral countries leaves us better prepared to withstand further adverse effects of the European sovereign debt crisis and related market turmoil.

In the third quarter of 2012, our net inve stment incom e increased 73.9 % to € 5,357 mn. The growth of € 2,277 mn was largely driven by lower impairments and to a lesser extent by the improvement in our income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net).

Mainly resulting from our growing asset base in the Life/Health segment and almost offset by lower yields, Int e r e st and similar income (net) 1 rose slightly from € 5,037 mn to € 5,092 mn.

The loss in our Income from f inancial ass e t s and liabilitie s carried at fair value through income (net) was reduced by € 530 mn to € 139 mn – driven by favorable equity market developments in Europe, especially in France, and a positive trading result. In addition, the comparison figures were affected by the negative valuation effects on The Hartford warrants, which were sold in April 2012. The positive development was partially offset by an unfavorable foreign currency result. Financial derivatives are used to protect against equity and foreign currency fluctuations as well as to manage duration and other interest rate-related exposures.

Re alized gains and loss e s (net) decreased by € 171 mn to € 735 mn. This was predominantly due to the lower realizations on equities and real estate, which were only partly compensated for by higher debt security realizations.

impairments (net) fell 94.8 % to € 101 mn. This was mainly due to the previous year's results, which have been impacted by effects from the financial market turmoil, resulting in high impairments on equity investments.

Inv e stment expense s (net) were almost stable at € 230 mn compared to € 247 mn in the previous year's third quarter.

Composition of ass e t base | fair values

As of 30 September 2012, ABS amounted to € 0.4 bn, representing 1.0 % of its asset base.

◼ Cor por ate and Other liabilitie s

Other liabilities increased by € 1.7 bn to € 17.5 bn. The growth in certificated liabilities from € 13.8 bn to € 15.7 bn was primarily driven by a senior bond of € 1.5 bn issued in February 2012. Participation certificates and subordinated liabilities decreased by € 2.0 bn, reflecting the redemption of a subordinated bond of € 2.0 bn in May 2012. 4

1 | This comprises assets of € 0.1 bn and € 0.2 bn and liabilities of € (0.3) bn and € (0.5) bn as of 30 September 2012 and 31 December 2011, respectively.

2 | These do not include affiliates of € 74.0 bn and € 73.4 bn as of 30 September 2012 and 31 December 2011, respectively.

3 | Including cash and cash equivalents, as stated in our segment balance sheet, of € 3.4 bn and € 1.8 bn and receivables from cash pooling amounting to € 0.3 bn and € 0.5 bn, net of liabilities from securities lending and derivatives of € (0.1) bn and € 0.0 bn, as well as liabilities from cash pooling of € (5.0) bn and € (4.2) bn as of 30 September 2012 and 31 December 2011, respectively.

2 | Senior bonds provide for early termination rights in case of non-payment of amounts due under the bond (interest and principal) as well as in case of insolvency of the relevant issuer or, if applicable, the relevant guarantor (Allianz SE).

3 | The terms of the subordinated bonds do not explicitly provide for early termination rights in favor of the bondholder. Interest payments are subject to certain conditions which are linked, inter alia, to our net income, and may have to be deferred. Nevertheless, the terms of the relevant bonds provide for alternative settlement mechanisms which allow us to avoid an interest deferral using cash raised from the issuance of specific newly issued instruments.

1 | This does not include, among others, the € 0.5 bn 30-year convertible subordinated note issued in July 2011. For further information on Allianz SE debt (issued or guaranteed) as of 30 September 2012, please refer to notes 18 and 19 of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

The previous analysis is based on our condensed consolidated interim financial statements and should be read in conjunction with them. In addition to our stated figures according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the Allianz Group uses operating profit and internal growth to enhance the understanding of our results. These additional measures should be viewed as complementary to, and not as a substitute for, our figures determined according to IFRS.

For further information, please refer to note 4 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Composition of Total Revenue Growth

We 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 separately analyzed. Accordingly, in addition to presenting "nominal growth", we also present "internal growth", which excludes these effects.

Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

1955: All it took was a signature on the pre-printed form and the Allianz "standard form policy" (Blockpolice) for liability insurance granted insurance coverage right away.

(Translator's note: The Blockpolice (Standard form policy) was a standard policy based on a form that insurance agents would fill out on a clipboard during their visit to the customer's home. This meant that customers enjoyed insurance coverage from the moment the completed form was handed over to them.) 2012: Today, more than 135,000 Allianz agents across the globe use specially developed software and online solutions to tailor insurance coverage to suit customers' needs.

II. 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 conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS ), as adopted under European Union (E.U.) regulations in accordance with § 315 a of the German Commercial Code (HG B). IFRS comprise the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS ), the International Accounting Standards (IAS ), and the interpretations developed by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (formerly called the IFRIC) or the former Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC).

Within these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the Allianz Group has applied all IFRS issued by the IAS B and endorsed by the E.U. that are compulsory as of 1 January 2012 or adopted earlier. 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 31 December 2011. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Allianz Group Annual Report 2011.

IFRS do not provide specific guidance concerning all aspects of the recognition and measurement of insurance contracts, reinsurance contracts and investment contracts with discretionary participation features. 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 (US 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 Euros (€ mn), unless otherwise stated.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Allianz Group were authorized for issue by the Board of Management on 8 November 2012.

3 Consolidation

◼ Si gnific ant acq uisitions

MENSURA CCA AND MENSURA ASSURANCES SA

Effective as of 1 August 2012, Allianz Belgium acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities related to the insurance activities of Mensura CCA and its 100 % subsidiary Mensura Assurances SA. Through this acquisition, Allianz Belgium completed its range of products for the self-employed, SMEs and large companies with worker's accident insurance.

The transaction was approved by the General Assembly of Mensura CCA on 13 July 2012, and by the Belgian National Bank on 17 July 2012.

No consideration has been paid in the course of this transaction. Acquisition-related costs in the amount of € 1 mn are included in administrative expenses.

The amounts recognized for major classes of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are as follows:

In € mn Fair value
Cash and cash equivalents 22
Investments 918
Reinsurance assets 30
Deferred acquisition costs 2
Deferred tax assets 5
Other assets 80
Total assets 1,057
Financial liabilities carried at fair value through income 4
Unearned premiums 26
Reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses 992
Other liabilities 32
Total equity 3
Total liabilities and equity 1,057

The negative goodwill of € 3 mn arising from the acquisition is derived from the development of the value of the acquired business between 1 January 2012 and 1 August 2012. The amount has been recognized, as of the acquisition date, in the consolidated income statement and is reported in realized gains/losses (net).

The impact of the activities acquired from Mensura CCA, including Mensura Assurances SA , on the Allianz Group's total revenues and net income since the acquisition was € 3 mn and € 6 mn, respectively.

The gross premiums written, total revenues and net income of the combined entity (Allianz Group including the activities acquired from Mensura CCA, including Mensura Assurances SA) for the nine months ended 30 September 2012, would have been € 55,165 mn, € 80,564 mn and € 4,209 mn, respectively, if the acquisition date was 1 January 2012.

The impact of the activities acquired from Mensura CCA, including Mensura Assurances SA , net of cash acquired, on the condensed consolidated statement of cashflows since the acquisition, was:

In € mn
Investments (918)
Reinsurance assets (30)
Deferred acquisition costs (2)
Deferred tax assets (5)
Other assets (80)
Financial liabilities carried at fair value through income 4
Unearned premiums 26
Reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses 992
Other liabilities 32
Total equity 3
Acquisition, net of cash acquired 22

GAN EUROCOURTAGE

Effective as of 1 October 2012, Allianz France acquired the Property-Casualty brokerage portfolio-related activities (excluding transport) of Gan Eurocourtage, a wholly owned subsidiary of Groupama S.A., after having received the formal approvals from the European anti-trust authorities and from the French regulatory authority, Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel (ACP). Gan Eurocourtage is a leading Property and Casualty franchise in the French brokerage market. This acquisition will create one of the largest brokerage franchises in France.

The total consideration paid in cash amounted to € 160 mn. This consideration was partly determined by reference to the net asset value of the transferred portfolio as of 30 April 2012 and does not represent the full shareholders' equity of Gan Eurocourtage. Acquisition-related costs in the amount of € 4 mn are included in administrative expenses.

Total identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized as of 1 October 2012 amount to approximately € 2.0 bn each. At the time the condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue, the purchase accounting for the business combination was not entirely completed due to the pending receipt of the final valuations for investments, intangible assets, reinsurance assets, other assets, reserves for insurance and investment contracts, current and deferred tax liabilities, other liabilities and goodwill.

Information regarding total revenues and net income the acquired business would have contributed to the Allianz Group for the nine months ended 30 September 2012 is not available as the Allianz Group has not yet had access to the respective reporting systems. Accordingly, pro forma consolidated figures for gross premiums written, total revenues and net income of the combined entity (Allianz Group including the Property-Casualty brokerage portfolio-related activities of Gan Eurocourtage) for the nine months ended 30 September 2012, had the acquisition date been 1 January 2012, can at this stage not be provided.

4 Segment Reporting

◼ Identification of reportable segments

The business activities of the Allianz Group are first organized by product and type of service: insurance activities, asset management activities and corporate and other 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. In accordance with the responsibilities of the Board of Management, each of the insurance categories is grouped into the following reportable segments:

  • ◾ German Speaking Countries
  • ◾ Western & Southern Europe
  • ◾ Iberia & Latin America
  • ◾ USA
  • ◾ Global Insurance Lines & Anglo Markets
  • ◾ Growth Markets
  • ◾ Global Assistance (Property-Casualty only)

Asset management activities represent a separate reportable segment. Due to differences in the nature of products, risks and capital allocation, corporate and other activities are divided into three reportable segments: Holding & Treasury, Banking and Alternative Investments. In total, the Allianz Group has identified 17 reportable segments in accordance with IFRS 8, Operating Segments.

The types of products and services from which reportable segments derive revenue are described below.

Property-Casualt y

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 an individual and a group basis, including annuity, endowment and term insurance, unit-linked and investmentoriented products as well as full private health and supplemental health and long-term care insurance.

Asset Management

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.

Corporate and Other

The reportable segment Holding & Treasury includes the management and support of the Allianz Group's businesses through its strategy, risk, corporate finance, treasury, financial reporting, controlling, communication, legal, human resources and technology functions. The reportable segment Banking consists of the banking activities in Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands and Bulgaria. The banks offer a wide range of products for corporate and retail clients with the main focus on the latter. The reportable segment Alternative Investments provides global alternative investment management services in the private equity, real estate, renewable energy and infrastructure sectors, mainly on behalf of the Allianz Group's insurance operations. The Alternative Investments reportable segment also includes a fully consolidated private equity investment. The income and expenses of this investment are included in the non-operating result. For further details, please see note 27.

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 Consolidation. For the reportable segment Asset Management, interest revenues are reported net of interest expenses.

◼ Reportable segments measure of profit or loss

The Allianz Group uses operating profit to evaluate the performance of its reportable segments and the Allianz Group as a whole. Operating profit highlights the portion of income before income taxes attributable to the ongoing core operations of the Allianz Group. 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.

To better understand the ongoing operations of the business, the Allianz Group generally excludes the following nonoperating effects:

  • ◾ acquisition-related expenses and the amortization of intangible assets, as these relate to business combinations;
  • ◾ restructuring charges, because the timing of these is largely at the discretion of the Allianz Group, and accordingly, their exclusion provides additional insight into the operating trends of the underlying business;
  • ◾ interest expenses from external debt, as these relate to the capital structure of the Allianz Group;
  • ◾ 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;
  • ◾ income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net), as this does not reflect the Allianz Group's long-term performance;
  • ◾ realized capital gains and losses (net) or impairments of investments (net), as the timing of sales that would result in such realized gains or losses is largely at the discretion of the Allianz Group and impairments are largely dependent on market cycles or issuer-specific events over which the Allianz Group has little or no control and which can and do vary, sometimes materially, through time.

Against this general rule, the following exceptions apply:

  • ◾ in all segments, income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net) is treated as operating profit if the income refers to operating business;
  • ◾ for Life/Health insurance business and Property-Casualty insurance products with premium refunds, all items listed above are included in operating profit if the profit sources are shared with policyholders. This is also applicable to tax benefits, which are shared with policyholders. IFRS requires that the consolidated income statements present all tax benefits in the income taxes line item, even though these belong to policyholders. In the segment reporting, the tax benefits are reclassified and shown within operating profit in order to adequately reflect the policyholder participation in tax benefits.

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

◼ Recent organizationa l change s

At the beginning of 2012, the Allianz Group reorganized the structure of its insurance activities to reflect the changes in the responsibilities of the Board of Management. The insurance activities of Spain, Portugal, Mexico and South America were combined in the newly created reportable segment Iberia & Latin America. As a consequence, the former Europe incl. South America was renamed into Western & Southern Europe and NAFTA Markets was reduced to USA . Previously reported information has been adjusted to reflect this change in the composition of the Allianz Group's reportable segments. Additionally, some minor reallocations between the reportable segments have been made.

◼ Restructu ring plans

The increase in the restructuring provisions is mainly driven by two new restructuring programs initiated in the second quarter of 2012. Allianz Global Investors recorded restructuring provisions of € 58 mn and restructuring charges of € 62 mn in order to create a global investment platform with the purpose of improving efficiency and positioning for growth. The restructuring measures primarily comprise reductions in headcount.

In addition, Allianz Beratungs- und Vertriebs-AG recorded restructuring provisions as well as restructuring charges of € 51 mn in order to reduce staff in the bancassurance operations.

The use of the provisions as well as the transfers to other provisions of other restructuring programs partially offset this increase. There were no other significant changes in the estimates for restructuring charges as described in the Allianz Group Annual Report 2011.

This includes expenses of € 138 mn (2011: income of € 555 mn) of German entities from financial derivative positions held for duration management and protection against equity and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Also included are expenses related to fixed-indexed annuity products and guaranteed benefits under unit-linked contracts of € 645 mn (2011: € 590 mn) from U.S. entities.

Co rporate and Other segment

For the nine months ended 30 September 2012, income (expenses) from financial assets and liabilities held for trading (net) in the Corporate and Other segment includes income of € 391 mn (2011: expenses of € 463 mn) from derivative financial instruments. This includes income of € 16 mn (2011: expenses of € 16 mn) from financial derivative instruments to protect investments and liabilities against foreign exchange rate fluctuations. In 2012, hedging of equity investments not designated for hedge accounting induced income of € 5 mn (2011: expenses of € 31 mn). Financial derivatives related to investment strategies generated income of € 180 mn (2011: expenses of € 322 mn). Expenses of € 78 mn (2011: income of € 42 mn) from the hedges of share based compensation plans (restricted stock units) are also included.

◼ Income (expenses) from financ ial assets and li abilities design at ed at fair value through inc ome (ne t )

This excludes exchange differences arising from financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, which do not have to be disclosed separately. The Allianz Group uses freestanding derivatives to hedge against foreign currency fluctuations, for which it recognized expenses of € 146 mn (2011: income of € 101 mn) for the nine months ended 30 September 2012.

1 | The presented subtotal for expenses and total income and expenses from fully consolidated private equity investments for the three and the nine months ended 30 September 2012 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 € 6 mn (2011: € 15 mn) and € (34) mn (2011: € 46 mn) for the three and the nine months ended 30 September 2012, respectively. This consolidation effect results from the deferred policyholder participation, recognized 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 Allianz Group's operating profit.

Review report

To Allianz SE, Munich

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of 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 Allianz SE, Munich, for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2012, 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 International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS ) applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the E.U., 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 respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the E.U., and 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. 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 E.U., 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.
