Total assets under management decreased by € 38 bn to € 1,763 bn, mainly driven by third-party assets under management (AuM) net outflows and negative effects from Market and Other, but largely offset by favorable effects from foreign currency translation. Of total AuM, € 1,276 bn related to third-party AuM and € 487 bn to Allianz Group assets.
In 2015, we recorded total AuM net outflows of € 116 bn. Net out- flows from third-party AuM amounted to € 107 bn. This was strongly driven by PImCO in the United States, primarily from traditional fixed income products. However, since the end of 2014, third-party AuM net outflows at PImCO have significantly receded with each quarter, amounting to only € 11 bn in the fourth quarter of 2015. Allianz Global Investors (AllianzGI) recorded strong third-party net inflows in 2015. These were primarily due to net inflows in Europe, continuing AllianzGI’s trend of third-party net inflows for the twelfth consecutive quarter.
Unfavorable effects from Market and Other, amounting to € 34 bn, also contributed to the decrease of total AuM. Negative effects of € 41 bn at PImCO – mainly from fixed income assets – were only partially offset by positive effects at AllianzGI of € 8 bn.
We recorded a decline in total AuM of € 13 bn, reported as con- solidation, deconsolidation and other adjustments. This was mainly due to an adjustment of third-party AuM related to a joint venture and a correction in reporting of notional accounts.
Mainly as a result of the depreciation of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar, which declined from 1.21 at the beginning of the year to 1.09 on 31 December 2015, we recorded favorable foreign currency trans- lation effects of € 125 bn.

1 Fixed income, equities and other definitions based on legal entity view as of 31 December 2014. There- fore, 2014 and 2015 figures are not comparable.
2 From the first quarter of 2015, net flows represent the sum of new client assets, additional contributions from existing clients – including dividend reinvestment – withdrawals of assets from, and termination of, client accounts and distributions to investors. Reinvested dividends amounted to € 18 BN. 3 From the first quarter of 2015, Market and Other represents current income earned on, and changes in
the fair value of, securities held in client accounts. It also includes dividends from net investment income
and from net realized capital gains to investors of open ended mutual funds and of closed end funds. 4 Multi-assets is a combination of several asset classes (e.g. bonds, stocks, cash and real property) used as
an investment. Multi-assets class investments increase the diversification of an overall portfolio by dis- tributing investments throughout several asset classes.
5 Other is composed of other asset classes than equity, fixed income and multi-assets, e.g. money markets, commodities, real estate investment trusts, infrastructure investments, private equity investments, hedge funds, etc.
In the following section we focus on the development of third-party assets under management.
As of 31 December 2015, the share of third-party AuM by business unit was 77.3 % attributable to PImCO and 22.7 % attributable to AllianzGI.
At the beginning of 2015 we enhanced our asset class reporting from a legal entity view to a more granular asset class split composed of fixed income, equities, multi-assets, and other. Furthermore, we replaced the retail and institutional asset split by an investment vehicle view, comprised of mutual funds and separate accounts.1
Based on the asset class split on 31 December 2015, the third- party AuM share of fixed income amounted to 74.0 %, reflecting the high share of fixed income assets at PImCO. 11.8 % in equity assets was due to the notable equity share at AllianzGI. Multi-assets and other accounted for 10.5 % and 3.7 %, respectively.
1 Mutual funds are investment vehicles (in the United States, investment companies subject to the U.S. code; in Germany, vehicles subject to the “Standard-Anlagerichtlinien des Fonds” Investmentgesetz) where the money of several individual investors is pooled into one account to be managed by the asset manager, e.g. open-end funds, closed-end funds. Separate accounts are investment vehicles where the money of a single investor is directly managed by the asset manager in a separate dedicated account (e.g. public or private institutions, high net worth individuals, and corporates).

The regional allocation of third-party AuM shifted in favor of Europe and – to a lesser extent – the Asia-Pacific region. This was mainly due to strong third-party net outflows in the United States and third-party net inflows at AllianzGI in Europe and was supported by market effects. It was only partially offset by positive foreign currency trans- lation effects.

Outperforming third-party assets under management Underperforming third-party assets under management
1 Three-year rolling investment performance reflects the mandate-based and volume-weighted three- year investment success of all third-party assets that are managed by Allianz Asset Management’s portfolio-management units. For separate accounts and mutual funds, the investment success (valued on the basis of the closing prices) is compared with the investment success prior to cost deduction of the respective benchmark, based on various metrics. For some mutual funds, the investment success, reduced by fees, is compared with the investment success of the median of the respective Morningstar peer group (a position in the first and second quartile is equivalent to outperformance).
The overall three-year rolling investment performance of our Asset Management business decreased, but remained on a high level, with 69 % of third-party assets outperforming their respective benchmarks (31 December 2014: 84 %). The decrease was mainly driven by PImCO’s rolling investment performance, which was impacted by strong quarters of 2012 rolling off and more challenging quarters of 2015 roll- ing in. 69 % of PImCO third-party assets outperformed their respective benchmarks. AllianzGI improved significantly with 70 % of third-party assets outperforming their respective benchmarks.
