The corporate assistance solution has been designed to cater for companies with a globally-mobile base of employees and organisations that operate in high-risk or unstable areas.

The new services include a wide range of tools that offer detailed country risk assessments, pinpoint the geographic location of employees during a crisis, organise ‘meet and greet’ and ‘check-in’ security services when travelling in high-risk locations, and provide detailed cultural awareness programmes.

The security features of the service have been reinforced through a new partnership with Red24, a global leader in crisis and risk management. Through this partnership, Allianz offers clients access to a global network of expert security specialists, providing real-time destination risk reports and analysis. This gives organisations a comprehensive overview of the security risks involved when moving or travelling to potentially volatile locations, with full support from a 24/7 emergency assistance team.

The new services reflect the proactive approach Allianz takes to corporate assistance, and involves working closely with clients, including looking at the travel protocols they have in place, reviewing their crisis management plans, ensuring an organisation has comprehensive oversight of employee safety and well-being whilst abroad, and awareness of what support is in place in the event of a medical, travel or security emergency.
