Allianz posts €2bn profit

Allianz’s asset-management division — which houses Pimco — posted a 13% fall in operating profit, but recorded net inflows of €14.9bn

Allianz said on 12 May that first-quarter net profit rose sharply after its year-earlier result was hit by a provision, and confirmed its guidance for 2023.

Europe’s largest insurer said it made a net profit of €2.03bn ($2.22bn) compared with €417m in the year-earlier period, when it booked a provision after reaching settlements related to its Structured Alpha funds in the US.
