Allianz shuffles deck with Worldwide Partners business

Allianz Global Automotive, Allianz Global Assistance and Allianz Worldwide Care are now housed under one roof as Allianz Worldwide Partners (AWP).

The company believes the approach will enhance AWP’s market-leading position.

“Uniting three of Allianz’s leading subsidiaries under one organisation will streamline the capabilities of the business and provide us with opportunities to invest in global and customer-centric services to deliver a stronger partner focus moving forward,” CEO Craig Dalzell said.

“Our modular, value-added solutions are the result of our customer-centric approach.”

Last year more than 40 million Australians used AWP services such as travel insurance, tuition insurance, event protection and other assistance services.

Mr Dalzell says AWP aims to remain an assistance services leader and will expand its offering in healthcare, “lifecare”, cyber assistance, and mobile device and digital risk.
