Allianz has retained the top insurance brand in the world. This is the second consecutive time in the Interbrand’s Best Global Brands Ranking. The top best insurer said the positive news comes at an especially uncertain time for markets and industries across the globe, as they attempt to navigate the challenges of a worldwide pandemic.
“Our focus on resilience, integrity and customer centricity is paying off. Allianz has once again been recognized as #1 insurance brand globally, which is fantastic news and confirms that we are on the right track,” said Oliver Bäte, Chief Executive Officer of Allianz SE.
“We are immensely proud to be the #1 insurance brand, and to have secured our place on the Top 40 Best Global Brands list. In just ten years, Allianz has moved from 67th place on the list with a value of $4.9 bn in 2010, to 39th place with a value of almost $13 bn in 2020. While half the brands in the Top 100 failed to grow this year, Allianz’s brand valuation increased by 7 percent despite the crisis, taking it to $12.935 bn,” said Christian Deuringer, Head of Brand & Partnerships at Allianz SE. “We have set ourselves a goal to become a Top 25 brand by 2025.”
For Allianz, the ranking is more than an encouraging sign of the brand’s growing strength. It also points to Allianz’s increasing role in people’s lives.
“During Covid-19, we worked extremely hard to deliver on our promise and beyond, taking on an even greater role in the lives of our customers, our employees and our communities, helping secure the future, and giving our customers courage in these difficult times,” stated Serge Raffard, Group Strategy, Marketing, Distribution Officer at Allianz SE.
“Our customer centricity and resilience allow us to benchmark ourselves against brands across industries. The diversity of what we offer, for example, with health services like Doctor on Call, or Chat with Allianz Partners, had an immense impact during the pandemic and made the difference,” Raffard added. “We are now up to higher summits with our Olympic partnership kicking off worldwide on January 1st, 2021. And we look forward to many more milestones.”
