Revisiting Insurance Portfolios with Allianz
The shift towards structurally lower interest rates globally in the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, and indeed the existence of negative interest rates in many countries, has forced a range of investors to re-think their longer term structural asset allocation approaches.
In this lunchtime presentation, Allianz Australia’s CIO Anthony Michael will take us through how one of the world’s largest insurance companies is evolving its strategic approach, particularly as it relates to investing in non-public and alternative asset classes.
He will also share some of the challenges in implementing change against the backdrop of varying local and global regulatory and taxation regimes.
