Insurer Allianz to sign up as Olympics sponsor for 2021-2028

German insurer Allianz said on Tuesday it had agreed to become a global Olympic sponsor for a four-Games period between 2021-2028, in the latest addition to the International Olympic Committee's top-tier sponsorship programme.

Allianz, eager to access the Games' young global audience and wider sports community, will see its logo used at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024 and Los Angeles four years later, as well as the Winter Games in 2022 in Beijing and in 2026.

The insurer will become the IOC's 14th top sponsor.
