  • Munich, November 28

    Allianz SE announced today that it would donate up to 200,000 euros to support disaster relief in the Philippines following the disaster caused by Super Typhoon Fung-wong. It brought torrential rains and destructive winds to the South Philippines in mid-November, causing widespread devastation. The region has already suffered damage from Typhoon Kalmegi. The close timing of the two strong storms compounded the humanitarian crisis and the impact on affected communities.
