🎀 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month - a time to remind ourselves that early detection saves lives and that communication, empathy, and inclusion can make all the difference. This week, our gender equality network, NEO, hosted a meaningful webinar in collaboration with Pink Awareness Deutschland, focusing not only on raising awareness about breast cancer but also on how to talk about it with sensitivity, openness, and care. 💡 Did you know? ➡️ 1 in 8 women in Germany will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. ➡️ Early detection matters: 83% of women diagnosed have a 10-year survival rate. ➡️ Support extends far beyond the patient , touching families, friends, colleagues, and workplaces. ✨ From awareness to action – AllianzGI Milan joins the movement Throughout October, our Milan office has been bringing these values to life through a series of inspiring initiatives dedicated to inclusion and cancer prevention: 💗 13 October - beyond care: health, rights and protection Thanks to our dedicated and passionate colleague Anna Vigliotti's efforts, in partnership with Allianz Bank, colleagues joined an event dedicated to raising awareness about oncological diseases. It was an evening of empathy and expertise exploring prevention, care, and hope through powerful testimonies and insights from medical, nutritional, and legal experts. 🚶♀️ 19 October – PittaRosso Pink Parade 2025 This Sunday, our AllianzGI team will proudly take part in the PittaRosso Pink Parade, a 5 km solidarity walk supporting the Umberto Veronesi Foundation and its vital scientific research. We’ll walk side by side, united in purpose and in memory of our colleagues, whose courage and kindness continue to inspire us. 🌿 Throughout October – promoting prevention and knowledge Across our offices, we’re sharing thoughtfully designed materials with colleagues which are made from sustainable, AI-assisted production which is filled with practical information on cancer prevention, nutrition, and health guidance. Because prevention begins with knowledge and caring begins with action. 💬 Whether through awareness, inclusion, or community action, these initiatives remind us that taking care of one another is at the heart of who we are. Let’s continue to raise our voices, support each other, and act for change. Together. 💪💗

🍲On this #WorldFoodDay, consider how we can each take small steps to help bridge this gap and combat food inequality. Did you know that over 700 million people are living with hunger? Meanwhile, more than one billion tons of food is wasted each year - enough to feed two billion people annually. Food insecurity is a rising global threat, and innovations in food production could play a crucial role in creating more resilient food systems and reducing waste.   💡Read more to discover how food is lost and wasted, and how AI and digitalisation can optimise food production to make a change and ensure that everyone has access to adequate, nutritious, and sustainable food: https://ow.ly/Qf2x50XccP6 #Sustainability #FoodWaste #Biodiversity #AI

China’s equity story is increasingly local, increasingly tech-driven, and increasingly strategic. #ChinaBriefing #Tariffs

The United States is currently in the throes of a government shutdown, which occurs when lawmakers (Congress) are unable to agree on passing legislation that would approve or extend federal funding for public services. As a result, large swathes of the US government have effectively ceased operating, with only activities deemed essential continuing. Stock markets remain open, of course, having meanwhile become accustomed to taking these (fiscal) policy standoffs in their stride. While it is expected to hit the economy to some extent, catch-up effects after a shutdown typically limit the damage.
