4 Allianz Europe Equity Climate Transition A vehicle to invest in a low carbon economy The Allianz Europe Equity Climate Transition Fund invests in European companies engaged in the transition to a low carbon economy. Fund Manager Isabel Reuss Fund Highlights Stock selection based on fundamental research combining financial, ESG and climate aspects. A double objective: Protecting financial value by monitoring carbon risk and encouraging the transition to a low carbon economy. Investing actively in the climate transition with 3 company profiles in the portfolio best climate performers, best efforts and best solutions. Investment approach Our approach aims to control the portfolio s exposure to carbon risk by reducing its carbon footprint over the recommended investment horizon without excluding sectors that traditionally emit significant amounts of greenhouse gases. The Fund s investment strategy is based on the active selection of stocks, which are part of the transition to a lowcarbon economy, while respecting our sustainable development criteria and our financial requirements. We exclude risky practices on the basis of the following: absence of greenhouse gas reduction targets, serious controversies in the environmental field, very high-risk practices. While we invest in companies with low levels of carbon emissions relative to peers, we also favour companies committed to improve their carbon emissions overtime (also called best efforts ) and those producing products or services that facilitate the transition to a low-carbon economy ( best solutions ).

12 Allianz Green Bond Going for green and impact investing to generate societal alpha Fund Manager Hervé Dejonghe Fund Manager Julien Bras, CFA The Allianz Green Bond Fund provides a unique opportunity to gain global exposure in green bonds. The Fund is well diversified and invests globally in order to benefit from various geographic opportunities to generate returns. The quality of selected Green Bonds is assessed through a strict process combining an analysis of the Green and financial features of the bond. Fixed income securities with additional Green value A green bond is like any other regular bond with the difference that the money raised by the issuer is destined to finance `green projects, i.e. assets or business activities that are environment-friendly. Green bonds can finance projects in the areas of e.g. renewable energy, Green House Gas emissions reduction, energy efficiency systems & infrastructures, sustainable land use and waste management, biodiversity conservation or clean transportation, clean water etc Green Bonds trade in line with standard bonds and provide environmental benefits by dedicating in a transparent way their use of proceeds to projects contributing positively to the fight against climate change. The USD 223bn* Green Bond market celebrated its 0th anniversary this year. New issues are rising with USD 83bn as of end of September 207 and more than 00bn expected for 207. Investment approach The Fund is a global investment grade strategy with a maximum of 5 % in high yield bonds (from BB+ to BB-). The strategy has an aggregate profile with a focus on corporates and uses a multi-currency approach (hedged in euro). The Fund invests at least 85% of its assets in green bonds and has a diversification possibility of maximum 5% on non-green issuers with a high environmental rating in order to increase sector / instrument diversification while keeping a strong green focus. The Fund follows a fundamental and active investment approach. Our investment philosophy is to mobilize capital to finance the energy and climate transition. By using the green bond market segment, the Fund favors the re-allocation of investments through a lower carbon-intensive economy which is an important challenge for the fight against climate change. With the Allianz Green Bond Fund investors could co-finance a sustainable future through our impact strategy that aims to generate societal alpha.

Simulations are not able to account for the impact of actual portfolio trading as it may have been affected by economic and market factors, such as a lack of liquidity. If the currency in which the past performance is displayed differs from the currency of the country in which the investor resides, then the investor should be aware that due to the exchange rate fluctuations the performance shown may be higher or lower if converted into the investor s local currency.
