Pacific Investment Management Co. has had an “absolutely stunning” development this year, according to Oliver Baete, chief executive of parent company Allianz SE.

The US investment firm pulled in about €20 billion ($21.7 billion) in client money during the first six weeks of 2024, Allianz chief financial officer Claire-Marie Coste-Lepoutre added in the same interview on Friday. 

That’s “close to” what Pimco pulled in during all of last year, she said. The firm attracted €24 billion in client money in 2023, according to an investor presentation.

The upbeat development comes on the heels of a fourth quarter in which Pimco clients withdrew €3 billion from the firm, putting an end to a streak of inflows during the three preceding quarters. The asset manager suffered €75 billion in outflows in 2022 following a global bond rout.
