Late yesterday, a federal jury ruled in favor of Allianz Life
Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life) in regard to a class action
lawsuit titled Mooney v. Allianz Life Insurance Company. Filed more
than four years ago, the case initially involved allegations
relating to the clarity of language in some marketing materials on
certain products purchased between February 9, 2000, and May 10,
2007, but ultimately expanded to other practices, policies and
procedures.
“We are very pleased that the jury concluded that no harm came
to our policyholders,” said Allianz Life President and CEO Gary C.
Bhojwani, emphasizing that the company has some of the most
stringent sales oversight policies and procedures in the industry.
“Allianz Life strives to work with only the best financial
professionals in providing financial solutions for more than a
million policyholders.”
“On behalf of the Company, I would like to thank our employees,
our agents, and parent company for their continued support
throughout this process. We remain committed to doing the right
thing for our customers. Equally important, we remain committed to
guarding our reputation jealously.”
