Selling and soliciting to high net worth foreign nationals

SALES AND SOLICITATION

All solicitation and sales of Allianz products must take place in the U.S. and comply with all applicable local laws and regulations.

When dealing with a proposed owner or proposed insured, it’s important to know which activities are permitted in their country of legal citizenship, residence, or regional jurisdiction. Do not engage in activities expressly prohibited by, or beyond the scope of, these requirements.

Keep in mind, each sovereign country has the right to enact laws governing the sale of life insurance; these laws may apply beyond the country or jurisdiction. We recommend you consult with an independent attorney for advice.

Sales and Solicitation requirements

The Allianz HNWFN program is limited to solicitation and sales in the U.S. only. On your behalf and on behalf of Allianz, you may only engage in sales activities in U.S. jurisdictions where Allianz products are approved for sale, and where you are appropriately licensed and appointed.

Contact your Life New Business Representative for assistance and additional information if the proposed owner is using an LPOA.

WHAT ELSE CAN THE PROPOSED OWNER AND PROPOSED INSURED (IF DIFFERENT) EXPECT FOR UNDERWRITING AND COMPLIANCE?

On a case-by-case basis, Allianz may request a comprehensive foreign background check. For more details, consult the Allianz HNWFN Underwriting Requirement Guide. Additional requirements for the proposed owner and proposed insured (if different) may include:

• Request for required information (if not provided) • For face amounts over $5,000,000, Allianz requires the proposed insured to participate in a phone interview and provide third-party financials. An Allianz vendor will call the proposed insured to verify their application information and ask additional questions. This phone call can take place within or outside the U.S., depending on the proposed insured's location. • Comprehensive Anti-Money Laundering (AML) review with their application

To expedite AML review, confirm your proposed owner's application includes the following information:

If this information is absent, it will delay our decision

• Foreign Government ID number • Western name, if used • Spouse’s name, if using jointly held assets to justify the death benefit or if the couple shares a joint bank account • Name and, if possible, the locations or Tax IDs of entities the proposed owner owns (25% or higher share) • Proposed owner and proposed insured's connection to the U.S. • Addresses: attorney-in-fact, home, property, relatives, etc. • Copies of current and six-month full bank statements inclusive of all transaction activities. If the proposed owner's bank account does not contain enough balance to pay the initial premium, provide specific arrangements for obtaining from an alternative source. Location of the funds (“wired from another bank account,” for example) is not an acceptable clarification. • All copies must be color copies or PDFs. No pictures will be accepted. • Source(s) of wealth • Foreign employer name (if applicable)

While it may add time to the application
process, Allianz can process the
application faster when you provide
the additional information above.

ONCE ALLIANZ APPROVES THE APPLICATION, WHAT STEPS MUST WE TAKE TO GET THE POLICY IN FORCE?

You deliver the policy in the state which the application was solicited and signed.

The proposed owner or attorney-in-fact signs the delivery receipt in the state in which the application was solicited and signed.

The proposed owner sends premium payment from a U.S. bank account they own to Allianz via domestic wired, personal check, or electronic draft.

Audit program

In compliance with the stated guidelines, all HNWFN life insurance sales are subject to specific auditing and analysis based on the risks Allianz determines through underwriting.

In these audits, Allianz may review all aspects of the producer participating in the foreign national program, including a producer’s qualifications and certifications, their sales activities, applications, questionnaires, policy delivery, policy administration, and compliance with the HNWFN program guidelines.

Policy administration

For all policies issued through the HNWFN program, policy owners must pay all initial and subsequent premium payments to Allianz in U.S. currency through a U.S. bank.

For all initial and subsequent correspondence and policy administration, the policy owner must communicate from a U.S. address.
