Allianz's own investments carry about 77 MtCO2e of financed emissions, and its emissions figures are under reasonable assurance. Financed emissions from its listed-company holdings are 60% below 2019 and its electricity is 100% renewable, partly through unbundled certificates, but it has no SBTi-validated target and no measurable nature or water targets. NGO reports document its insurance of US LNG terminals and its asset managers' coal and fossil-fuel holdings.

What evidence is Allianz's score based on?
12 sources used in this assessment. All publicly available. Each row shows which of the ten questions it informed.
17% of them were published by Allianz itself; the rest come from independent sources.
Allianz's financed emissions (about 77.3 MtCO2e in 2025, from its own investments) are its own stated PCAF figure, from pages 54 and 72 of its 2025 Annual Report. They set the size deduction. Emissions linked to the policies it underwrites are reported only for parts of the book (about 2.7 MtCO2e) and are not included.
10 of 12 sources are independent of the company.

UnitedHealth cut market-based operational emissions 55% from 2023 to 2025, mainly by buying renewable electricity (44% of use in 2025), but location-based operational emissions fell only about 4% and value-chain emissions rose 2%.
See the breakdown →Standard Life discloses operational emissions with 81% absolute cuts since 2019, but portfolio decarbonization targets intensity only—not absolute financed emissions.
See the breakdown →Centene's reported emissions fell from 2.87 Mt in 2019 to 1.17 Mt in 2025, largely because it cut office space by about 80% after moving to hybrid working, and its Scope 3 is estimated from spending rather than supplier data.
