Allianz Makes it Official with German Football Association

Bernd Heinemann, Allianz AG’s market management board, said: “The new partnership with the DFB complements the approach of Allianz to position itself as a comprehensive partner of football in Germany – in addition to promoting the FIFA Women’s World Cup, the naming rights to the Allianz Arena and the commitment to FC Bayern Munich.”
