Letter from Chairman of the Board & President

Dear Shareholder:

While global economic growth was far from robust, there were signs of improvement in a number of countries during the fiscal twelve-month fiscal reporting period ended August 31, 2013. Against this backdrop, global equities generated strong results, while bond prices were pressured by rising interest rates.		Hans W. Kertess Chairman Brian S. Shlissel President & CEO

Twelve-Month Fiscal Period in Review
For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013, AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (the “Fund”) returned 15.19% on net asset value (“NAV”) and 17.67% on market price.

In comparison, the MSCI All Country World Index, an unmanaged global index reflective of developed equity markets, rose 15.48% in US dollar terms. The BofA Merrill Lynch All US Convertibles Index, an unmanaged index representative of the convertible securities market, gained 18.78%. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, an unmanaged index representative of the US stock market, rose 18.70% and the Barclays US Credit Index, an unmanaged index considered representative of publicly issued, Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registered US corporate and specific foreign debentures and secured notes, declined 2.12% during the twelve-month period.

During the reporting period, the United States experienced choppy but continued growth. Gross domestic product (“GDP”), the value of goods and services produced in the country, the broadest measure of economic activity and the principal indicator of economic performance, grew at an annual pace of 2.8% during the third quarter of 2012. GDP growth decelerated to 0.1% during the fourth quarter of 2012, as private inventory investment and federal government spending moderated. However, GDP growth rose to 1.1% during the first quarter of 2013. According to the second estimate from the US Commerce Department, GDP growth increased to a 2.5% annual pace during the second quarter of 2013.

Although US economic data was mixed at times, there were continued signs of the long-awaited recovery in the housing market. In addition, while unemployment remained elevated, the unemployment rate dropped from 8.1% in August 2012 to 7.3% in August 2013.

Outlook

With unemployment falling and some signs of improving economic activity, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) announced its intention to begin tapering its monthly $85 billion asset purchase program. This triggered sharply rising yields and declining bond prices. The yield on the benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond rose from 1.57% at the beginning of the reporting period to 2.78% at August 31,

2013. While long-term rates have increased, the Fed has indicated that it intends to maintain the Fed Funds rate in the 0.0% to 0.25% range “as long as the unemployment rate remains above 6.5%,” provided that inflation remains well contained.

Market volatility increased sharply toward the end of the fiscal reporting period. This was partially triggered by concerns regarding the Fed’s plans to taper its asset purchase program and slower global growth.

We expect the Fed’s policy stance to remain accommodative, even if it begins to taper its purchase program sooner rather than later. Fed tapering is likely to create greater volatility; however, we believe the Fed will only raise interest rates if it is confident the economic recovery is on solid footing. Concerns of higher interest rates impacting the housing market, geopolitical issues and an impasse in Congress regarding the raising of the debt ceiling may also contribute to market volatility.

With respect to the US economy, an important factor going forward will be consumer spending, as it comprises in excess of two-thirds of GDP. While the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 has had a significant impact on consumers’ mindset, auto and retail sales have been generally solid. In addition, it appears that as the employment situation improves, consumer confidence will likely rise, with spending to follow. This could help drive the economy during the remainder of the year and into 2014.

Fund Insights

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013 (unaudited)

For the period of September 1, 2012 through August 31, 2013 as provided by Doug Forsyth, Portfolio Manager.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013, AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (the “Fund”) returned 15.19% on net asset value (“NAV”) and 17.67% on market price.

Market Environment

Many of the factors contributing to the equity and convertible market’s return earlier this year were seen throughout 2012. Convertible bonds benefited from both credit-spread tightening and higher equity prices. The primary reason for continued credit improvement was, and is, the lack of credit risk. Solid balance sheets were confirmed in the quarterly reporting seasons. The new-issue corporate-bond market produced a lower semiannual interest-expense burden for issuers, and again proved the widespread availability of new capital. Furthermore, the majority of the new issues’ use-of-proceeds continued to be refinancing, which helps eliminate near-term amortization risk in the market. A consistently accommodative global monetary policy has continued to offset any headline macroeconomic softness.

The market advance continued into late spring of 2013 as first-quarter corporate profits for most companies exceeded expectations. In June, however, stocks pulled back. What had been perceived by investors as a unilaterally accommodative global monetary policy had been tempered by the language, not the actions, of the US Federal Reserve (the “Fed”).

The Fed’s statements in June concerning the potential tapering of its bond buying program rattled the overall markets, but also specifically impacted longer-dated Treasuries.

In July equities and convertibles rebounded sharply and then reversed course into the end of the reporting period. Initially, better-than-expected second-quarter corporate profits, rising US consumer confidence and a strengthening US economy helped support an advance that lifted US equities to new highs for the year. In August, the convertible market declined alongside equities, but to a lesser degree. Speculation on the timing of monetary stimulus tapering and a further rise in interest rates pressured investor sentiment. However, despite these macro-related risks, on average issuer fundamentals continued to improve over the reporting period.

Against this backdrop, non-US developed market equities advanced thanks to improving global growth prospects and further economic stimulus packages. European stocks were among the best performers, led by outperformance in smaller benchmark names. Larger index weights, including France and Germany, also outperformed during the period. Japanese stocks rallied due to expansionary government policies and improving investor sentiment. Conversely, Australian stocks were positive on an absolute basis, but lagged on a relative basis due to an increase in Australia’s unemployment rate, a slowdown in consumer growth, and declining commodity prices.

4 Annual Report | August 31, 2013

Levels of implied volatility, as measured by the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (“VIX”), were muted compared to recent years. The VIX began the period at 17.47 and traded range bound before spiking in the final days of December due to the impending US fiscal cliff. Volatility declined sharply after the event was avoided and remained subdued until the Fed introduced stimulus tapering commentary. After peaking just below 22.0 in late June, the VIX retreated to close the period at 17.01.

Portfolio Specifics

The Fund rallied with the market during the reporting period. Strength was broad based and evident in a variety of holdings and industries. Exposure to convertible bonds helped cushion the Fund from downside volatility during equity market declines and provided upside participation when equities rallied.

In the US equity sleeve, sector allocations which helped performance relative to the Russell 1000 Growth Index were Information Technology, Financials and Consumer Staples. Stock picking and asset allocation effects across all of the aforementioned sectors were also positive. In contrast, security selection within the Industrials, Energy and Materials sectors hindered relative returns.

In the International equity sleeve, stock selection lagged the MSCI EAFE Index in the reporting period. In particular, bottom-up stock picking in the United Kingdom trailed the benchmark due to more conservative security selections. Hong Kong and France also detracted from relative results due to bottom-up selections, as did an overweight allocation to Singapore. Conversely, positive stock selection and a modest underweight in Australia positively impacted results for the annual reporting period. From a sector perspective, stock selection within Industrials and Financials, two of the top index performers, trailed the benchmark on a relative basis. Selections within Materials also offset results, due primarily to positions in the chemical industry. Meanwhile, stock selection in the Health Care sector proved advantageous, as did a relative overweight to Consumer Discretionary stocks, which posted the best performance for the benchmark index during the annual reporting period.

In the convertibles sleeve, sector allocations which helped performance relative to the convertibles universe in the reporting period were Financials, Transportation and Technology. The Fund benefitted from an overweighting in Transportation in addition to higher issuer-specific performance versus the overall sector. Conversely, sector allocations that hampered relative performance in the reporting period were Energy, Health Care and Utilities. All of the aforementioned sectors exhibited lower issuer-specific performance versus the universe.

The Fund benefitted from opportunistically over-writing on individual equity positions. Single stock implied volatilities for the front month continued to be low. Despite the challenging equity market, acceptable single stock premiums were recognized. As select equity holdings moved higher, the covered calls were actively managed to higher strike prices.

Performance & Statistics

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013 (unaudited)

Total Return (1) :	Market Price	NAV
1 Year	17.67%	15.19%
5 Year	4.79%	5.23%
Commencement of Operations (9/28/07) to 8/31/13	0.04%	1.86%

Market Price/NAV Performance:	Market Price/NAV:
Commencement of Operations (9/28/07) to 8/31/13	Market Price	$14.38
	NAV	$15.85
NAV	Discount to NAV	-9.27%
Market Price	Market Price Yield (2)	6.26%

(1) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Total return is calculated by determining the percentage change in NAV or market price (as applicable) in the specified period. The calculation assumes that all dividends and distributions, if any, have been reinvested. Total return does not reflect broker commissions or sales charges in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund shares. Total return for a period of more than one year represents the average annual total return.

Performance at market price will differ from results at NAV. Although market price returns typically reflect investment results over time, during shorter periods returns at market price can also be influenced by factors such as changing views about the Fund, market conditions, supply and demand for the Fund’s shares, or changes in the Fund’s dividends.

An investment in the Fund involves risk, including the loss of principal. Total return, market price, market price yield and NAV will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. This data is provided for information purposes only and is not intended for trading purposes. Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a one-time public offering and, once issued, shares of closed-end funds are traded in the open market through a stock exchange. NAV is equal to total assets less total liabilities divided by the number of shares outstanding. Holdings are subject to change daily.

(2) Market Price Yield is determined by dividing the annualized current quarterly per share dividend (comprised of net investment income and net short-term capital gains, if any) by the market price per share at August 31, 2013.

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (the “Fund”), formerly known as AGIC Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund, was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on May 3, 2007. Prior to commencing operations on September 28, 2007, the Fund had no operations other than matters relating to its organization and registration as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder. Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC (the “Investment Manager”) and Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), formerly Allianz Global Investors Capital LLC, serve as the Fund’s investment manager and sub-adviser, respectively, and are indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Allianz Asset Management of America L.P. (“AAM”). The Sub-Adviser name change occurred on January 1, 2013 in connection with several corporate reorganization transactions within the Allianz Global Investors U.S. business. AAM is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Allianz SE, a publicly traded European insurance and financial services company. The Fund has authorized an unlimited amount of common shares with $0.00001 par value.

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek total return comprised of capital appreciation, current income and gains. Under normal market conditions the Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in a diversified, global portfolio of equity securities and income-producing convertible securities. The Fund also employs a strategy of writing (selling) call options on stocks held, as well as on equity indexes, in an attempt to generate gains from option premiums. The extent of the Fund’s use of the option strategy will vary depending on market conditions and other factors, and the Fund may determine to write call options on only a portion, or none, of the stocks in its equity portfolio. There can be no assurance that the Fund will meet its stated objective.

The preparation of Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Fund’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the Fund’s financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, “Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” as amended in January 2013 by ASU No. 2013-01, which requires enhanced disclosures that will enable users to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

1. Organizational and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

January 1, 2013. The Fund’s management is currently evaluating the effect that the guidance may have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund:

(a) Valuation of Investments

Portfolio securities and other financial instruments for which market quotations are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, on the basis of quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or independent pricing services. The Fund’s investments are valued daily using prices supplied by an independent pricing service or dealer quotations, or by using the last sale price on the exchange that is the primary market for such securities, or the mean between the last quoted bid and ask price. Independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics.

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted procedures for valuing portfolio securities and other financial derivative instruments in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated the responsibility for applying the valuation methods to the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser. The Fund’s Valuation Committee was established by the Board to oversee the implementation of the Fund’s valuation methods and to make fair value determinations on behalf of the Board, as instructed. The Sub-Adviser monitors the continued appropriateness of methods applied and determines if adjustments should be made in light of market changes, events affecting the issuer, or other factors. If the Sub-Adviser determines that a valuation method may no longer be appropriate, another valuation method may be selected, or the Valuation Committee will be convened to consider the matter and take any appropriate action in accordance with procedures set forth by the Board. The Board shall review the appropriateness of the valuation methods and these methods may be amended or supplemented from time to time by the Valuation Committee.

Synthetic convertible securities are valued based on quotations obtained from unaffiliated brokers who are the principal market-makers in such securities. Such valuations are derived by the brokers from proprietary models which are generally based on readily available market information including valuations of common stock underlying the synthetic security.

Short-term securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, if their original term to maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if the original term to maturity exceeded 60 days.

Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the net asset value (“NAV”) of the Fund’s shares may be

28 Annual Report | August 31, 2013

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

1. Organizational and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is closed.

The prices used by the Fund to value investments may differ from the value that would be realized if the investments were sold, and these differences could be material to the Fund’s financial statements. The Fund’s NAV is normally determined at the close of regular trading (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on the NYSE on each day the NYSE is open for business.

The prices of certain portfolio securities may be determined at a time prior to the close of regular trading on the NYSE. When fair-valuing the securities, the Fund may, among other things, consider significant events (which may be considered to include changes in the value of U.S. securities or securities indices) that occur after the close of the relevant market and before the time the Fund’s NAV is calculated. With respect to certain foreign securities, the Fund may fair-value securities using modeling tools provided by third-party vendors. The Fund has retained a statistical research service to assist in the determining the fair value of foreign securities. This service utilizes statistics and programs based on historical performance of markets and other economic data to assist in making fair value estimates. Fair value estimates used by the Fund for foreign securities may differ from the value realized from the sale of those securities and these differences could be material to the financial statements. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security or other assets, and fair values used to determine the Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same investments. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities or other assets held by the Fund.

(b) Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

§ Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments that the Fund has the ability to access

§ Level 2 – valuations based on other significant observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risk, and default rates or other market corroborated inputs

§ Level 3 – valuations based on significant unobservable inputs (including the Sub-Adviser’s or Valuation Committee’s own assumptions and securities whose price was determined by using a single broker’s quote)

The valuation techniques used by the Fund to measure fair value during the year ended August 31, 2013 were intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

August 31, 2013 | Annual Report 29

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

1. Organizational and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the end of the reporting period. An investment asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level input, individually or in aggregate, that is significant to fair value measurement. The objective of fair value measurement remains the same even when there is a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability and regardless of the valuation techniques used. Investments categorized as Level 1 or 2 as of period end may have been transferred between Levels 1 and 2 since the prior period due to changes in the valuation method utilized in valuing the investments.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following are certain inputs and techniques that the Fund generally uses to evaluate how to classify each major category of assets and liabilities for Level 2 and Level 3, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

Equity Securities (Common and Preferred Stock) – Equity securities traded in inactive markets and certain foreign equity securities are valued using inputs which include broker-dealer quotes, recently executed transactions adjusted for changes in the benchmark index, or evaluated price quotes received from independent pricing services that take into account the integrity of the market sector and issuer, the individual characteristics of the security, and information received from broker-dealers and other market sources pertaining to the issuer or security. To the extent that these inputs are observable, the values of equity securities are categorized as Level 2. To the extent that these inputs are unobservable the values are categorized as Level 3.

Convertible Bonds & Notes – Convertible bonds & notes are valued by independent pricing services using various inputs and techniques, which include broker-dealer quotations from relevant market makers and recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. The broker-dealer quotations received are supported by credit analysis of the issuer that takes into consideration credit quality assessments, daily trading activity, and the activity of the underlying equities, listed bonds and sector-specific trends. To the extent that these inputs are observable, the values of convertible bonds & notes are categorized as Level 2. To the extent that these inputs are unobservable the values are categorized as Level 3.

Option Contracts – Option contracts traded over-the-counter (“OTC”) and FLexible EXchange (“FLEX”) are valued by independent pricing services based on pricing models that incorporate various inputs such as interest rates, credit spreads, currency exchange rates and volatility measurements for in-the-money, at-the-money, and out-of-the-money contracts based on a given strike price. To the extent that these inputs are observable, the values of OTC and FLEX option contracts are categorized as Level 2. To the extent that these inputs are unobservable the values are categorized as Level 3.

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

1. Organizational and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(c) Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost basis. Interest income adjusted for the accretion of discount and amortization of premium is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts or premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted or amortized, respectively, to interest income. Conversion premium is not amortized. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, and then are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund, using reasonable diligence, becomes aware of such dividends. Payments received on synthetic convertible securities are generally included in dividends. Payments received from certain investments may be comprised of dividends, realized gains and return of capital. These payments may initially be recorded as dividend income and may subsequently be reclassified as realized gains and/or return of capital upon receipt of information from the issuer.

(d) Federal Income Taxes

The Fund intends to distribute all of its taxable income and to comply with the other requirements of Subchapter M of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes is required.

Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes establishes for all entities, including pass-through entities such as the Fund, a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular jurisdiction), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. In accordance with provisions set forth under U.S. GAAP, the Investment Manager has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for all open tax years. As of August 31, 2013, the Fund has recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions they have taken. The Fund’s federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

(e) Dividends and Distributions

The Fund declares dividends and distributions on a quarterly basis. These dividends and distributions may be comprised in varying proportions of net investment income, gains from option premiums and the sale of portfolio securities and return of capital. The Fund records dividends and distributions on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book-tax” differences are considered either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal income tax treatment. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and/or distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, they are

August 31, 2013 | Annual Report 31

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

1. Organizational and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

reported as dividends and/or distributions to shareholders from return of capital.

(f) Foreign Currency Translations

The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period; and (2) purchases and sales, income and expenses are translated at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of such transactions. The resulting net foreign currency gain (loss) is included in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.

The Fund does not generally isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities. Accordingly, such foreign currency gain (loss) is included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. However, the Fund does isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when determining the gain (loss) upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations; such amount is categorized as foreign currency gain (loss) for both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.

( g) Convertible Securities

It is the Fund’s policy to invest a portion of its assets in convertible securities. Although convertible securities do derive part of their value from the securities into which they are convertible, they are not considered derivative financial instruments. However, certain of the Fund’s investments in convertible securities include features which render them more sensitive to price changes in their underlying securities. The value of structured/synthetic convertible securities can be affected by interest rate changes and credit risks of the issuer. Such securities may be structured in ways that limit their potential for capital appreciation and the entire value of the security may be at risk of loss depending on the performance of the underlying equity security. Consequently, the Fund is exposed to greater downside risk than traditional convertible securities, but still less than that of the underlying stock.

2. Principal Risks

In the normal course of business, the Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to, among other things, changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (counterparty risk). The Fund is also exposed to other risks such as, but not limited to, interest rate, foreign currency, credit and leverage risks.

Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the values of certain fixed income securities held by the Fund are likely to decrease. A nominal interest rate can be described as the sum of a real interest rate and an expected inflation rate. Fixed income securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than

32 Annual Report | August 31, 2013

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

2. Principal Risks (continued)

securities with shorter durations. Duration is used primarily as a measure of the sensitivity of a fixed income security’s market price to interest rate ( i.e. yield) movements.

The Fund is exposed to credit risk, which is the risk of losing money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security is unable or unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to make timely principal and/or interest payments, or to otherwise honor its obligations. Securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk, which are often reflected in credit ratings.

To the extent the Fund invests directly in foreign currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign currencies, or in derivatives that provide exposure to foreign currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including economic growth, inflation, changes in interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, or by the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the United States or abroad. As a result, the Fund’s investments in foreign currency-denominated securities may reduce the returns of the Fund.

The Fund is subject to elements of risk not typically associated with investments in the U.S., due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country or region. Such concentrations will subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions in such country or region and the possible imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions affecting such country or region, which could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies.

The market values of securities may decline due to general market conditions (market risk) which are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment. They may also decline due to factors which affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. Equity securities and equity-related investments generally have greater market price volatility than fixed income securities.

The Fund is exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an institution or other entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions will default. The potential loss to the Fund could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded in the Fund’s financial statements. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Fund to counterparty risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties and investments. The Sub-Adviser seeks to

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

2. Principal Risks (continued)

minimize the Fund’s counterparty risk by performing reviews of each counterparty and by minimizing concentration of counterparty risk by undertaking transactions with multiple customers and counterparties on recognized and reputable exchanges. Delivery of securities sold is only made once the Fund has received payment. Payment is made on a purchase once the securities have been delivered by the counterparty. The trade will fail if either party fails to meet its obligation.

The Fund held synthetic convertible securities with a Lehman Brothers entity as counterparty at the time the relevant Lehman Brothers entity filed for protection or convertible security was placed in administration. Securities were subsequently moved into escrow. These securities are valued using a discounted amount on previous sale prices and estimated remaining distributions.

3. Financial Derivative Instruments

Disclosure about derivatives and hedging activities requires qualitative disclosure regarding objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosure about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivatives, and disclosure about credit-risk related contingent features in derivative agreements. The disclosure requirements distinguish between derivatives which are accounted for as “hedges,” and those that do not qualify for such accounting. Although the Fund at times uses derivatives for hedging purposes, the Fund reflects derivatives at fair value and recognizes changes in fair value through the Fund’s Statement of Operations, and such derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

Option Transactions

The Fund writes (sells) call options on securities and indices to earn premiums, for hedging purposes, risk management purposes or otherwise as part of its investment strategies. When an option is written, the premium received is recorded as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently marked to market to reflect the market value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as call options written in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recorded on the expiration date as a realized gain. The difference between the premium received and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transactions as a realized loss. If a call option written is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether there has been a realized gain or loss. If a put option written is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security. In writing an option, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Exercise of a written option could result in the Fund purchasing a security at a price different from its current market value.

4. Investment Manager/Sub-Adviser

The Fund has an Investment Management Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Investment Manager. Subject to the supervision of the Fund’s Board of Trustees, the Investment Manager is responsible for

34 Annual Report | August 31, 2013

Notes to Financial Statements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

August 31, 2013

4. Investment Manager/Sub-Adviser (continued)

managing, either directly or through others selected by it, the Fund’s investment activities, business affairs and administrative matters. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Investment Manager receives an annual fee, payable monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s average daily total managed assets. Total managed assets refer to the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to borrowings that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings).

The Investment Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to manage the Fund’s investments. Subject to the supervision of the Investment Manager, the Sub-Adviser is responsible for making all of the Fund’s investment decisions. Pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Investment Manager and not the Fund, pays a portion of the fees it receives as Investment Manager to the Sub-Adviser in return for its services.

Effective July 1, 2013, the Investment Manager entered into an Amended and Restated Portfolio Management Agreement with the Sub-Adviser with respect to the Fund (the “Amended Agreement”). The Amended Agreement reflects recent changes in the names of the Fund and the Sub-Adviser. The Amended Agreement is otherwise substantially identical to the previous Portfolio Management Agreement.

5. Investment in Securities

For the year ended August 31, 2013, purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term securities, were $86,760,002 and $91,785,347, respectively.

6. Income Tax Information

The tax character of dividends paid was:

	Year ended August 31, 2013	Year ended August 31, 2012
Ordinary Income	$4,277,486	$5,840,371
Long-Term Capital Gain	2,044,260	889,305
Return of Capital	2,102,162	1,689,511

For the year ended August 31, 2013, permanent “book/tax” differences were primarily attributable to the differing treatment of convertible securities, foreign currency transactions, and REITs. These adjustments were to decrease dividends in excess of net investment income and increase accumulated net realized loss by $192,187.

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Fund will be permitted to carryforward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather

6. Income Tax Information (continued)

than being considered all short-term capital losses.

At August 31, 2013, the cost basis of portfolio securities for federal income tax purposes was $158,537,731. Gross unrealized appreciation was $3,179,552; gross unrealized depreciation was $50,093,218 and net unrealized depreciation was $46,913,666. Differences between book and tax cost basis were attributable to wash sale loss deferrals and differing treatment of convertible securities.

7. Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements, the Fund’s management has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.

On September 6, 2013, a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share was declared to shareholders, payable September 26, 2013 to shareholders of record on September 16, 2013.

On September 24, 2013, the Boards of Trustees of the Fund and AllianzGI Equity & Convertible Income Fund (“Equity & Convertible Income”) approved the reorganization of the Fund into Equity & Convertible Income, pursuant to which Equity & Convertible Income would continue as the surviving fund (the “Reorganization”). It is currently expected that the Reorganization will be completed in the first quarter of 2014, subject to the required approval of shareholders of both Funds and satisfaction of applicable regulatory requirements and other customary closing conditions. A Registration Statement, which will include a Joint Proxy/Statement Prospectus relating to the Reorganization, will be filed with the SEC and, upon its effectiveness, distributed to shareholders of the Fund and Equity & Convertible Income.

There were no other subsequent events identified that require recognition or disclosure.

Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed, for purposes of this calculation, to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan. Total investment return does not reflect brokerage commissions or sales charges in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund shares.

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (the “Fund”) at August 31, 2013, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Matters Relating to the Trustees’ Consideration of the Investment Management & Portfolio Management Agreements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (unaudited)

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, requires that both the full Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”) and a majority of the non-interested Trustees (the “Independent Trustees”), voting separately, approve the Fund’s Management Agreement with the Investment Manager (the “Advisory Agreement”) and Portfolio Management Agreement between the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”, and together with the Advisory Agreement, the “Agreements”). The Trustees met telephonically on June 10, 2013 and in person on June 25, 2013 (the “contract review meetings”) for the specific purpose of considering whether to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Agreements by independent legal counsel, from whom they received separate legal advice and with whom they met separately from Fund management during the contract review meeting.

In connection with their deliberations regarding the continuation of the Agreements, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, considered such information and factors as they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them and their own business judgment, to be relevant. As described below, the Trustees considered the nature, quality, and extent of the various investment management, administrative and other services performed by the Investment Manager or the Sub-Adviser under the applicable Agreement.

In connection with their contract review meetings, the Trustees received and relied upon materials provided by the Investment Manager which included, among other items: (i) information provided by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent third party, on the total return investment performance (based on net assets) of the Fund for various time periods, the investment performance of a group of funds with investment classifications/objectives comparable to those of the Fund identified by Lipper (the “Lipper performance universe”) and the performance of an applicable benchmark index, (ii) information provided by Lipper on the Fund’s management fees and other expenses and the management fees and other expenses of comparable funds identified by Lipper, (iii) information regarding the investment performance and management fees for other funds managed by the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser with strategies that have similarities (but are not substantially similar) to those of the Fund, (iv) the estimated profitability to the Investment Manager from its relationship with the Fund for the one year period ended December 31, 2012, (v) descriptions of various functions performed by the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser for the Fund, such as portfolio management, compliance monitoring and portfolio trading practices, and (vi) information regarding the overall organization of the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser, including information regarding senior management, portfolio managers and other personnel providing investment management, administrative and other services to the Fund.

40 Annual Report | August 31, 2013

Matters Relating to the Trustees’ Consideration of the Investment Management & Portfolio Management Agreements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (unaudited) (continued)

The Trustees’ conclusions as to the continuation of the Agreements were based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Trustees and were not the result of any single factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’ deliberations are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, attributing different weights to various factors. The Trustees recognized that the fee arrangements for the Fund are the result of review and discussion in prior years between the Independent Trustees and the Investment Manager, that certain aspects of such arrangements may receive greater scrutiny in some years than in others, and that the Trustees’ conclusions may be based, in part, on their consideration of these same arrangements during the course of the year and in prior years.

Fund-specific performance results for the Fund reviewed by the Trustees are discussed below. The comparative performance information was prepared and provided by Lipper and was not independently verified by the Trustees. The Trustees reviewed, among other information, comparative information showing performance of the Fund against its respective Lipper performance universe for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods ended March 31, 2013.

In addition, it was noted that the Trustees considered matters bearing on the Fund and its advisory arrangements at their meetings throughout the year, including a review of performance data at each regular meeting.

As part of their review, the Trustees examined the Investment Manager’s and the Sub-Adviser’s abilities to provide high quality investment management and other services to the Fund. Among other information, the Trustees considered the investment philosophy and research and decision-making processes of the Sub-Adviser; the experience of key advisory personnel of the Sub-Adviser responsible for portfolio management of the Fund; the ability of the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser to attract and retain capable personnel; and the capability of the senior management and staff of the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the quality of the Investment Manager’s and the Sub-Adviser’s services with respect to regulatory compliance and compliance with the investment policies of the Fund; the nature and quality of certain administrative services the Investment Manager is responsible for providing to the Fund; and conditions that might affect the Investment Manager’s or the Sub-Adviser’s ability to provide high quality services to the Fund in the future under the Agreements, including each organization’s respective financial condition and operational stability. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the Sub-Adviser’s investment process, research capabilities and philosophy were well suited to the Fund given its investment objective and policies, and that the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser would be able to continue to meet any reasonably foreseeable obligations under the Agreements.

In assessing the reasonableness of the Fund’s fees under the Agreements, the Trustees

August 31, 2013 | Annual Report 41

Matters Relating to the Trustees’ Consideration of the Investment Management & Portfolio Management Agreements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (unaudited) (continued)

considered, among other information, the Fund’s management fee and its total expense ratio as a percentage of average net assets attributable to common shares and the management fee and total expense ratios of peer expense groups of funds based on information provided by Lipper. The Fund-specific fee and expense results discussed below were prepared and provided by Lipper and were not independently verified by the Trustees.

The Trustees specifically took note of how the Fund compared to its Lipper peers as to performance and management fee and total net expenses. The Trustees noted that while the Fund is not charged a separate administration fee (recognizing that its management fee includes a component for administrative services), it was not clear in all cases whether the peer funds in the Lipper categories were separately charged such a fee by their investment managers, so that the total expense ratio (rather than any individual expense component) represented the most relevant comparison (although none exist for the Fund).

The Trustees noted that the expense group for the Fund provided by Lipper consisted of a total of six closed-end funds, including the Fund. The Trustees noted that only non-leveraged closed-end funds were considered for inclusion in the group. The Trustees also noted that average net assets of the common shares of the funds in the expense group ranged from $62.8 million to $415 million, and that three of the funds are larger in asset size than the Fund. The Trustees also noted that the Fund was ranked sixth out of six funds in the expense group for total expense ratio based on common share assets and third out of six funds in the expense group in actual management fees based on common share assets (with funds ranked first having the lowest fees/expenses and ranked sixth having the highest fees/expenses in the expense group).

With respect to the Fund’s total return performance relative to its Lipper performance universe (based on net asset value), the Trustees noted that the Fund had third quintile performance for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods ended March 31, 2013.

In addition to their review of Fund performance based on net asset value, the Trustees also considered the market value performance of the Fund’s common shares and related share price premium and/or discount information based on the materials provided by Lipper and management.

The Trustees were advised that the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser does not manage any funds or accounts, including institutional or separate accounts, with investment strategies and return profiles similar to those of the Fund. However, the Trustees considered the management fees charged by the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser to open-end funds with strategies that have similarities (but are not substantially similar) to those of the Fund. The Trustees noted that the management fees paid by the Fund are generally higher than the fees paid by the open-end funds offered for comparison but were advised by the Sub-Adviser that there are additional portfolio management challenges in managing the

42 Annual Report | August 31, 2013

Matters Relating to the Trustees’ Consideration of the Investment Management & Portfolio Management Agreements

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (unaudited) (continued)

Fund, such as those associated with attempting to meet a regular dividend.

Based on a profitability analysis provided by the Investment Manager, the Trustees also considered the estimated profitability to the Investment Manager from its relationship with the Fund and determined that such profitability did not appear to be excessive.

The Trustees also took into account that, as a closed-end investment company, the Fund does not currently intend to raise additional assets, so the assets of the Fund will grow (if at all) only through the investment performance of the Fund. Therefore, the Trustees did not consider potential economies of scale as a principal factor in assessing the fee rates payable under the Agreements.

Additionally, the Trustees considered so-called “fall-out benefits” to the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser, such as reputational value derived from serving as Investment Manager and Sub-Adviser to the Fund.

After reviewing these and other factors described herein, the Trustees concluded with respect to the Fund, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Agreements and based on the information provided and related representations made by management, that they were satisfied with the Investment Manager’s and the Sub-Adviser’s responses and efforts relating to the investment performance of the Fund. The Trustees also concluded that the fees payable under each Agreement represent reasonable compensation in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Investment Manager or Sub-Adviser, as the case may be. Based on their evaluation of factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the continuation of the Agreements was in the interests of the Fund and its shareholders, and should be approved.

Privacy Policy

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (unaudited)

Our Commitment to You

We consider customer privacy to be a fundamental aspect of our relationships with shareholders and are committed to maintaining the confidentiality, integrity and security of our current, prospective and former shareholders’ personal information. To ensure our shareholders’ privacy, we have developed policies that are designed to protect this confidentiality, while allowing shareholders’ needs to be served.

Obtaining Personal Information

In the course of providing shareholders with products and services, we may obtain non-public personal information about shareholders, which may come from sources such as account applications and other forms, from other written, electronic or verbal correspondence, from shareholder transactions, from a shareholder’s brokerage or financial advisory firm, financial adviser or consultant, and/or from information captured on our internet web sites.

Respecting Your Privacy

As a matter of policy, we do not disclose any personal or account information provided by shareholders or gathered by us to non-affiliated third parties, except as required for our everyday business purposes, such as to process transactions or service a shareholder’s account, or as otherwise permitted by law. As is common in the industry, non-affiliated companies may from time to time be used to provide certain services, such as preparing and mailing prospectuses, reports, account statements and other information, and gathering shareholder proxies. We may also retain non-affiliated financial services providers, such as broker-dealers, to market our shares or products and we may enter into joint-marketing arrangements with them and other financial companies. We may also retain marketing and research service firms to conduct research on shareholder satisfaction. These companies may have access to a shareholder’s personal and account information, but are permitted to use this information solely to provide the specific service or as otherwise permitted by law. We may also provide a shareholder’s personal and account information to their respective brokerage or financial advisory firm, Custodian, and/or to their financial advisor or consultant.

Sharing Information with Third Parties

We reserve the right to disclose or report personal information to non-affiliated third parties, in limited circumstances, where we believe in good faith that disclosure is required under law to cooperate with regulators or law enforcement authorities, to protect our rights or property or upon reasonable request by any Fund in which a shareholder has chosen to invest. In addition, we may disclose information about a shareholder or a shareholder’s accounts to a non-affiliated third party only if we receive a shareholder’s written request or consent.

Sharing Information with Affiliates

We may share shareholder information with our affiliates in connection with our affiliates’ everyday business purposes, such as servicing a shareholder’s account, but our affiliates may not use this information to market products and services to you except in conformance with applicable laws or regulations. The information we share includes information about our experiences and transactions with a shareholder and may include, for example, a shareholder’s participation in one of the

Funds or in other investment programs, a shareholder’s ownership of certain types of accounts (such as IRAs), or other data about a shareholder’s transactions or accounts. Our affiliates, in turn, are not permitted to share shareholder information with non-affiliated entities, except as required or permitted by law.

Procedures to Safeguard Private Information

We take seriously the obligation to safeguard shareholder non-public personal information. In addition to this policy, we have also implemented procedures that are designed to restrict access to a shareholder’s non-public personal information only to internal personnel who need to know that information in order to provide products or services to such shareholders. In addition, we have physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in place to guard a shareholder’s non-public personal information.

Disposal of Confidential Records

We will dispose of records, if any, that are knowingly derived from data received from a consumer reporting agency regarding a shareholder that is an individual in a manner that ensures the confidentiality of the data is maintained. Such records include, among other things, copies of consumer reports and notes of conversations with individuals at consumer reporting agencies.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (unaudited)

The Fund has adopted a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) which allows common shareholders to reinvest Fund distributions in additional common shares of the Fund. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Plan Agent”) serves as agent for common shareholders in administering the Plan. It is important to note that participation in the Plan and automatic reinvestment of Fund distributions does not ensure a profit, nor does it protect against losses in a declining market.

Automatic enrollment/voluntary participation. Under the Plan, common shareholders whose shares are registered with the Plan Agent (“registered shareholders”) are automatically enrolled as participants in the Plan and will have all Fund distributions of income, capital gains and returns of capital (together, “distributions”) reinvested by the Plan Agent in additional common shares of the Fund, unless the shareholder elects to receive cash. Registered shareholders who elect not to participate in the Plan will receive all distributions in cash paid by check and mailed directly to the shareholder of record (or if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, to the nominee) by the Plan Agent. Participation in the Plan is voluntary. Participants may terminate or resume their enrollment in the Plan at any time without penalty by notifying the Plan Agent online at www.amstock.com, by calling (800) 254-5197, by writing to the Plan Agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, at P.O. Box 922, Wall Street Station, New York, NY 10269-0560, or, as applicable, by completing and returning the transaction form attached to a Plan statement. A proper notification will be effective immediately and apply to the Fund’s next distribution if received by the Plan Agent at least three (3) days prior to the record date for the distribution; otherwise, a notification will be effective shortly following the Fund’s next distribution and will apply to the Fund’s next succeeding distribution thereafter. If you withdraw from the Plan and so request, the Plan Agent will arrange for the sale of your shares and send you the proceeds, minus a transaction fee and brokerage commissions.

How shares are purchased under the Plan. For Fund distributions, the Plan Agent will acquire common shares for participants either (i) through receipt of newly issued common shares from the Fund (“newly issued shares”) or (ii) by purchasing common shares of the Fund on the open market (“open market purchases”). If, on a distribution payment date, the net asset value per common share of the Fund (“NAV”) is equal to or less than the market price per common shares plus estimated brokerage commissions (often referred to as a “market premium”), the Plan Agent will invest the distribution amount on behalf of participants in newly issued shares at a price equal to the greater of (i) NAV or (ii) 95% of the market price per common share on the payment date. If the NAV is greater than the market price per common shares plus estimated brokerage commissions (often referred to as a “market discount”) on a distribution payment date, the Plan agent will instead attempt to invest the distribution amount through open market purchases. If the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full distribution amount in open market purchases, or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Agent will invest any un-invested portion of the distribution in newly issued shares at a price equal to the greater of (i) NAV or (ii) 95% of the

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible Income Fund (unaudited) (continued)

market price per share as of the last business day immediately prior to the purchase date (which, in either case, may be a price greater or lesser than the NAV per common share on the distribution payment date). No interest will be paid on distributions awaiting reinvestment. Under the Plan, the market price of common shares on a particular date is the last sales price on the exchange where the shares are listed on that date or, if there is no sale on the exchange on that date, the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations for the shares on the exchange on that date. The NAV per common share on a particular date is the amount calculated on that date (normally at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) in accordance with the Fund’s then current policies.

Fees and expenses. No brokerage charges are imposed on reinvestments in newly issued shares under the Plan. However, all participants will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred by the Plan Agent when it makes open market purchases. There are currently no direct service charges imposed on participants in the Plan, although the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include such charges. The Plan Agent imposes a transaction fee (in addition to brokerage commissions that are incurred) if it arranges for the sale of your common shares held under the Plan.

Shares held through nominees. In the case of a registered shareholder such as a broker, bank or other nominee (together, a “nominee”) that holds common shares for others who are the beneficial owners, the Plan Agent will administer the Plan on the basis of the number of common shares certified by the nominee/record shareholder as representing the total amount registered in such shareholder’s name and held for the account of beneficial owners who are to participate in the Plan. If your common shares are held through a nominee and are not registered with the Plan Agent, neither you nor the nominee will be participants in or have distributions reinvested under the Plan. If you are a beneficial owner of common shares and wish to participate in the Plan, and your nominee is unable or unwilling to become a registered shareholder and a Plan participant on your behalf, you may request that your nominee arrange to have all or a portion of your shares re-registered with the Plan Agent in your name so that you may be enrolled as a participant in the Plan. Please contact your nominee for details or for other possible alternatives. Participants whose shares are registered with the Plan Agent in the name of one nominee firm may not be able to transfer the shares to another firm and continue to participate in the Plan.

Tax consequences. Automatically reinvested dividends and distributions are taxed in the same manner as cash dividends and distributions – i.e., automatic reinvestment in additional shares does not relieve shareholders of, or defer the need to pay, any income tax that may be payable (or that is required to be withheld) on Fund dividends and distributions. The Fund and the Plan Agent reserve the right to amend or terminate the Plan. Additional information about the Plan, as well as a copy of the full Plan itself, may be obtained from the Plan Agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, at P.O. Box 922, Wall Street Station, New York, NY 10269-0560; telephone number: (800) 254-5197; web site: www.amstock.com.

The Registrant’s policy is stated below.

AllianzGI Global Equity & Convertible & Income Fund (The “Fund”)

AUDIT OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE POLICY FOR PRE-APPROVAL OF SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

The Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee (“Committee”) is charged with the oversight of the Funds’ financial reporting policies and practices and their internal controls. As part of this responsibility, the Committee must pre-approve any independent accounting firm’s engagement to render audit and/or permissible non-audit services, as required by law. In evaluating a proposed engagement by the independent accountants, the Committee will assess the effect that the engagement might reasonably be expected to have on the accountant’s independence. The Committee’s evaluation will be based on:

a review of the nature of the professional services expected to provided,

the fees to be charged in connection with the services expected to be provided,

a review of the safeguards put into place by the accounting firm to safeguard independence, and

periodic meetings with the accounting firm.

POLICY FOR AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED TO THE FUNDS

On an annual basis, the Fund’s Committee will review and pre-approve the scope of the audits of the Funds and proposed audit fees and permitted non-audit (including audit-related) services that may be performed by the Fund’s independent accountants. At least annually, the Committee will receive a report of all audit and non-audit services that were rendered in the previous calendar year pursuant to this Policy. In addition to the Committee’s pre-approval of services pursuant to this Policy, the engagement of the independent accounting firm for any permitted non-audit service provided to the Fund will also require the separate written pre-approval of the President of the Fund, who will confirm, independently, that the accounting firm’s engagement will not adversely affect the firm’s independence. All non-audit services performed by the independent accounting firm will be disclosed, as required, in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

AUDIT SERVICES

The categories of audit services and related fees to be reviewed and pre-approved annually by the Committee are:

Annual Fund financial statement audits
Seed audits (related to new product filings, as required)
SEC and regulatory filings and consents

AUDIT-RELATED SERVICES

The following categories of audit-related services are considered to be consistent with the role of the Fund’s independent accountants and services falling under one of these categories will be pre-approved by the Committee on an annual basis if the Committee deems those services to be consistent with the accounting firm’s independence:

Accounting consultations
Fund merger support services
Agreed upon procedure reports
Other attestation reports

Comfort letters
Other internal control reports

Individual audit-related services that fall within one of these categories and are not presented to the Committee as part of the annual pre-approval process described above, may be pre-approved, if deemed consistent with the accounting firm’s independence, by the Committee Chair (or any other Committee member who is a disinterested trustee under the Investment Company Act to whom this responsibility has been delegated) so long as the estimated fee for those services does not exceed $250,000. Any such pre-approval shall be reported to the full Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

TAX SERVICES

The following categories of tax services are considered to be consistent with the role of the Fund’s independent accountants and services falling under one of these categories will be pre-approved by the Committee on an annual basis if the Committee deems those services to be consistent with the accounting firm’s independence:

Tax compliance services related to the filing or amendment of the following:

Federal, state and local income tax compliance; and, sales and use tax compliance
Timely RIC qualification reviews
Tax distribution analysis and planning
Tax authority examination services
Tax appeals support services
Accounting methods studies
Fund merger support service
Other tax consulting services and related projects

Individual tax services that fall within one of these categories and are not presented to the Committee as part of the annual pre-approval process described above, may be pre-approved, if deemed consistent with the accounting firm’s independence, by the Committee Chairman (or any other Committee member who is a disinterested trustee under the Investment Company Act to whom this responsibility has been delegated) so long as the estimated fee for those services does not exceed $250,000. Any such pre-approval shall be reported to the full Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

PROSCRIBED SERVICES

The Fund’s independent accountants will not render services in the following categories of non-audit services:

Bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Funds
Financial information systems design and implementation
Appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports
Actuarial services
Internal audit outsourcing services
Management functions or human resources
Broker or dealer, investment adviser or investment banking services
Legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit
Any other service that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible

PRE-APPROVAL OF NON-AUDIT SERVICES PROVIDED TO OTHER ENTITIES WITHIN THE FUND COMPLEX

The Committee will pre-approve annually any permitted non-audit services to be provided to Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC or any other investment manager to the Funds (but not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is sub-contracted by the investment manager) (the “Investment Manager”) and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Investment Manager that provides ongoing services to the Fund (including affiliated sub-advisers to the Fund), provided, in each case, that the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund (such entities, including the Investment Manager, shall be referred to herein as the “Accounting Affiliates”). Individual projects that are not presented to the Committee as part of the annual pre-approval process, may be pre-approved, if deemed consistent with the accounting firm’s independence, by the Committee Chairman (or any other Committee member who is a disinterested trustee under the Investment Company Act to whom this responsibility has been delegated) so long as the estimated fee for those services does not exceed $250,000. Any such pre-approval shall be reported to the full Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

Although the Committee will not pre-approve all services provided to the Investment Manager and its affiliates, the Committee will receive an annual report from the Funds’ independent accounting firm showing the aggregate fees for all services provided to the Investment Manager and its affiliates.

DE MINIMUS EXCEPTION TO REQUIREMENT OF PRE-APPROVAL OF NON-AUDIT SERVICES

With respect to the provision of permitted non-audit services to a Fund or Accounting Affiliates, the pre-approval requirement is waived if:

(1) The aggregate amount of all such permitted non-audit services provided constitutes no more than (i) with respect to such services provided to the Fund, five percent (5%) of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its independent accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided, and (ii) with respect to such services provided to Accounting Affiliates, five percent (5%) of the total amount of revenues paid to the Fund’s independent accountant by the Fund and the Accounting Affiliates during the fiscal year in which the services are provided;

(2) Such services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement for such services to be non-audit services; and

(3) Such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Committee or by the Committee Chairman (or any other Committee member who is a disinterested trustee under the Investment Company Act to whom this Committee Chairman or other delegate shall be reported to the full Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

e) 2. No services were approved pursuant to the procedures contained in paragraph (C) (7) (i) (C) of Rule 2-01 of Registration S-X.

f) Not applicable

g) Non-audit fees. The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the Auditor for services rendered to the Registrant, and rendered to the Adviser, for the 2012 Reporting Period was $3,977,936 and the 2013 Reporting Period was $5,014,810.

h) Auditor Independence. The Registrant’s Audit Oversight Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Adviser which were not pre-approved is compatible with maintaining the Auditor’s independence.

ITEM 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE OF LISTED REGISTRANT

The Fund has a separately designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The audit committee of the Fund is comprised of Hans W. Kertess, James A. Jacobson, William B. Ogden, IV, Alan Rappaport, Bradford K. Gallagher and Deborah A. DeCotis.

ALLIANZ GLOBAL INVESTORS FUND MANAGEMENT LLC (“AGIFM”)

PROXY VOTING POLICY SUMMARY

1. It is the policy of AGIFM that proxies should be voted in the interest of the shareholders of the applicable fund, as determined by those who are in the best position to make this determination. AGIFM believes that the firms and/or persons purchasing and selling securities for the funds and analyzing the performance of the funds’ securities are in the best position and have the information necessary to vote proxies in the best interests of the funds and their shareholders, including in situations where conflicts of interest may arise between the interests of shareholders, on one hand, and the interests of the investment adviser, a sub-adviser and/or any other affiliated person of the fund, on the other. Accordingly, AGIFM’s policy shall be to delegate proxy voting responsibility to those entities with portfolio management responsibility for the funds.

2. AGIFM, for each fund for which it acts as investment adviser, delegates the responsibility for voting proxies to the sub-adviser for the respective fund.

3. The party voting proxies (e.g., the sub-adviser) vote the proxies in accordance with their proxy voting policies and, to the extent consistent with their policies, may rely on information and/or recommendations supplied by others.

4. AGIFM and each sub-adviser of a fund will deliver a copy of their respective proxy voting policies and any material amendments thereto to the board of the relevant fund promptly after the adoption or amendment of any such policies.

5.

Appendix B

Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC (“AllianzGI US”)

Description of Proxy Voting Policy and Procedures

AllianzGI US typically votes proxies as part of its discretionary authority to manage accounts, unless the client has explicitly reserved the authority for itself. To ensure that the proxies are voted in the best interests of its clients, AllianzGI US has adopted proxy voting procedures and guidelines for voting proxies on specific types of issues. When voting proxies, AllianzGI US seeks to make voting decisions solely in the best interests of its clients and to enhance the economic value of the underlying portfolio securities held in its clients’ accounts. AllianzGI US will not be responsible for voting of proxies that AllianzGI US has not been notified of on a timely basis by the client’s custodian.

AllianzGI US has adopted written Proxy Policy Guidelines and Procedures (the “Proxy Guidelines”) that are reasonably designed to ensure that the firm is voting in the best interest of its clients. The Proxy Guidelines reflect AllianzGI US’s general voting positions on specific corporate governance issues and corporate actions. AllianzGI US has retained two independent third party service providers (the “Proxy Providers”), to support two different groups of portfolio management teams, to assist in the proxy voting process by implementing the votes in accordance with the Proxy Guidelines as well as assisting in the administrative process. The services provided offer a variety of proxy-related services to assist in AllianzGI US’s handling of proxy voting responsibilities. Although both Proxy Providers have been instructed to follow the Proxy Guidelines, it is possible that in certain circumstances the Proxy Providers may interpret the Proxy Guidelines in different ways, and as a result AllianzGI US may cast votes on behalf of one client account that are different than votes cast for the same shares held by another client account.

In certain circumstances, a client may request in writing that AllianzGI US vote proxies for its account in accordance with a set of guidelines which differs from the Proxy Guidelines. For example, a client may wish to have proxies voted for its account in accordance with the Taft-Hartley proxy voting guidelines. In that case, AllianzGI US will

vote the shares held by such client accounts in accordance with their direction, which may be different from the vote cast for shares held on behalf of other client accounts that vote in accordance with the Proxy Guidelines.

AllianzGI US will generally refrain from voting proxies on non-U.S. securities that are subject to share blocking restrictions. Certain countries require the freezing of shares for trading purposes at the custodian/sub-custodian bank level in order to vote proxies to ensure that shareholders voting at meetings continue to hold the shares through the actual shareholder meeting. However, because AllianzGI US cannot anticipate every proxy proposal that may arise (including a proxy proposal that an analyst and/or portfolio manager believes has the potential to significantly affect the economic value of the underlying security, such as proxies relating to mergers and acquisitions), AllianzGI US may, from time to time, instruct the Proxy Providers to cast a vote for a proxy proposal in a share blocked country.

The Proxy Guidelines also provide for oversight of the proxy voting process by a Proxy Committee. The Proxy Guidelines summarize AllianzGI US’s position on various issues, including issues of corporate governance and corporate actions, and give general indication as to how AllianzGI US will vote shares on such issues. Occasionally, there may be instances when AllianzGI US may not vote proxies in strict adherence to the Proxy Guidelines. To the extent that the Proxy Guidelines do not cover potential voting issues or a case arises of a potential material conflict between AllianzGI US’s interest and those of a client with respect to proxy voting, the Proxy Committee will convene to discuss the issues. In evaluating issues, the Proxy Committee may consider information from many sources, including the portfolio management team, the analyst responsible for monitoring the stock of the company at issue, management of a company presenting a proposal, shareholder groups and independent proxy research services. In situations in which the Proxy Guidelines do not give clear guidance on an issue, an analyst or portfolio manager and/or the Proxy Committee will review the issue. In the event that either the analyst or portfolio manager wishes to override the Proxy Guidelines, the proposal will be presented to the Proxy Committee for a final decision. Any deviations from the Proxy Guidelines will be documented and maintained in accordance with Rule 204-2 under the Advisers Act.

In accordance with the Proxy Guidelines, AllianzGI US may review additional criteria associated with voting proxies and evaluate the expected benefit to its clients when making an overall determination on how or whether to vote a proxy. Upon receipt of a client’s written request, AllianzGI US may also vote proxies for that client’s account in a particular manner that may differ from the Proxy Guidelines. In addition, AllianzGI US may refrain from voting a proxy on behalf of its clients’ accounts due to de-minimis holdings, immaterial impact on the portfolio, items relating to non-U.S. issuers (such as those described below), non-discretionary holdings not covered by AllianzGI US, timing issues related to the opening/closing of accounts, securities lending issues (see below), contractual arrangements with clients and/or their authorized delegate, the timing of receipt of information, or where circumstances beyond its control prevent it from voting. For example, AllianzGI US may refrain from voting a proxy of a non-U.S. issuer due to logistical considerations that may impair AllianzGI US’s ability to vote the proxy. These issues may include, but are not limited to: (i) proxy statements and ballots being written in a language other than English, (ii) untimely notice of a shareholder meeting, (iii) requirements to vote proxies in person, (iv) restrictions on non-U.S. person’s ability to exercise votes, (v) restrictions on the sale of securities for a period of time in proximity to the shareholder meeting, or (vi) requirements to provide local agents with power of attorney to facilitate the voting instructions. Such proxies are voted on a best-efforts basis.

AllianzGI US may vote in accordance with the proxy guidelines of its affiliate advisers when voting in connection with Wrap Programs. The affiliated adviser’s guidelines may differ and in fact be in conflict with AllianzGI US’s voting guidelines.

If a client has decided to participate in a securities lending program, AllianzGI US will defer to the client’s determination and not attempt to recall securities on loan solely for the purpose of voting routine proxies as this could impact the returns received from securities lending and make the client a less desirable lender in the marketplace. If the participating client requests, AllianzGI US will use reasonable efforts to notify the client of proxy measures that AllianzGI US deems material.

The ability to timely identify material events and recommend recall of shares for proxy voting purposes is not within the control of AllianzGI US and requires the cooperation of

the client and its other service providers. Efforts to recall loaned securities are not always effective and there can be no guarantee that any such securities can be retrieved in a timely manner for purposes of voting the securities.

Like other investment professionals with multiple clients, a portfolio manager for a Fund may face certain potential conflicts of interest in connection with managing both the Fund and other accounts at the same time. The paragraphs below describe some of these potential conflicts, which AllianzGI US believes are faced by investment professional’s at most major financial firms.

AllianzGI US has adopted compliance policies and procedures that address certain of these potential conflicts. The management of accounts with different advisory fee rates and/or fee structures, including accounts that pay advisory fees based on account performance (“performance fee accounts”), may raise potential conflicts of interest by creating an incentive to favor higher-fee accounts. These potential conflicts may include, among others:

· The most attractive investments could be allocated to higher-fee accounts or performance fee accounts.

· The trading of higher-fee accounts could be favored as to timing and/or execution price. For example, higher-fee accounts could be permitted to sell securities earlier than other accounts when a prompt sale is desirable or to buy securities at an earlier and more opportune time.

· The investment management team could focus their time and efforts primarily on higher-fee accounts due to a personal stake in compensation.

When AllianzGI US considers the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interests of a Fund as well as other accounts, AllianzGI US’s trading desk may, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased. Aggregation of trades may create the potential for unfairness to a Fund or another account if one account is favored over another in allocating the securities purchased or sold-for example, by allocating a disproportionate amount of a security that is likely to increase in value to a favored account. AllianzGI US considers many factors when allocating securities among accounts, including the account’s investment style, applicable investment restrictions, availability of securities, available cash and other current holdings. AllianzGI US attempts to allocate investment opportunities among accounts in a fair and equitable manner. However, accounts are not assured of participating equally or at all in particular investment allocations due to such factors as noted above. “Cross trades,” in which one AllianzGI US account sells a particular security to another account (potentially saving transaction costs for both accounts), may also pose a potential conflict of interest when cross trades are effected in a manner perceived to favor one client over another. For example, AllianzGI US may cross a trade between performance fee account and a fixed fee account that results in a benefit to the performance fee account and a detriment to the fixed fee account. AllianzGI US has adopted compliance procedures that provide that all cross trades are to be made at an independent current market price, as required by law.

Another potential conflict of interest may arise from the different investment objectives and strategies of a Fund and other accounts. For example, another account may have a shorter-term investment horizon or different investment objectives, policies or restrictions than a Fund. Depending on another account’s objectives or other factors, a portfolio manager may give advice and make decisions that may differ from advice given, or the timing or nature of decisions made, with respect to a Fund. In addition, investment decisions are subject to suitability for the particular account involved. Thus, a particular security may not be bought or sold for certain accounts even though it was bought or sold for other accounts at the same time. More rarely, a particular security may be bought for one or more accounts managed by a portfolio manager when one or more other accounts are selling the security (including short sales). There may be circumstances when purchases or sales of portfolio securities for one or more accounts may have an adverse effect on other accounts. AllianzGI US maintains trading policies designed to provide portfolio managers an opportunity to minimize the effect that short sales in one portfolio may have on holdings in other portfolios.

A portfolio manager who is responsible for managing multiple accounts may devote unequal time and attention to the management of those accounts. As a result, the portfolio

manager may not be able to formulate as complete a strategy or identify equally attractive investment opportunities for each of those accounts as might be the case if he or she were to devote substantially more attention to the management of a single fund. The effects of this potential conflict may be more pronounced where funds and/or accounts overseen by a particular portfolio manager have different investment strategies.

A Fund’s portfolio manager(s) may be able to select or influence the selection of the broker/dealers that are used to execute securities transactions for the Fund. In addition to executing trades, some brokers and dealers provide AllianzGI US with brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), which may result in the payment of higher brokerage fees than might have otherwise be available. These services may be more beneficial to certain funds or accounts than to others. In order to be assured of continuing to receive services considered of value to its clients, AllianzGI US has adopted a brokerage allocation policy embodying the concepts of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The payment of brokerage commissions is subject to the requirement that the portfolio manager determine in good faith that the commissions are reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided to the Fund.

A Fund’s portfolio manager(s) may also face other potential conflicts of interest in managing a Fund, and the description above is not a complete description of every conflict that could be deemed to exist in managing both the Funds and other accounts. In addition, a Fund’s portfolio manager may also manage other accounts (including their personal assets or the assets of family members) in their personal capacity.

AllianzGI US’s investment personnel, including each Fund’s portfolio manager, are subject to restrictions on engaging in personal securities transactions pursuant to AllianzGI US’s Codes of Ethics, which contain provisions and requirements designed to identify and address conflicts of interest between personal investment activities and the interests of the Funds. The Code of Ethics is designed to ensure that the personal securities transactions, activities and interests of the employees of AllianzGI US will not interfere with (i) making decisions in the best interest of advisory clients (including the Funds) or (ii) implementing such decisions while, at the same time, allowing employees to invest for their own accounts.

As of August 31, 2013 the following explains the compensation structure of each individual who shares primary responsibility for day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund:

AllianzGI US’s compensation system is designed to support its corporate values and culture. While AllianzGI US acknowledges the importance of financial incentives and seeks to pay top quartile compensation for top quartile performance, AllianzGI US

also believes that compensation is only one of a number of critically important elements that allow the emergence of a strong, winning culture that attracts, retains and motivates talented investors and teams.

The primary components of compensation are the base salary and an annual discretionary variable compensation payment. This variable compensation component typically comprises a cash bonus that pays out immediately as well as a deferred component, for members of staff whose variable compensation exceeds a certain threshold. The deferred component for most recipients would be a notional award of the Long Term Incentive Program (LTIP); for members of staff whose variable compensation exceeds an additional threshold, the deferred compensation is itself split 50%/50% between the LTIP and a Deferral into Funds program (DIF). Currently, the marginal rate of deferral of the variable compensation can reach 42% for those in the highest variable compensation bracket. Overall awards, splits and components are regularly reviewed to ensure they meet industry best practice and, where applicable, at a minimum comply with regulatory standards.

Base salary typically reflects scope, responsibilities and experience required in a particular role, be it on the investment side or any other function in our company. Base compensation is regularly reviewed against peers with the help of compensation survey data. Base compensation is typically a greater percentage of total compensation for more junior positions, while for the most senior roles it will be a comparatively small component, often capped and only adjusted every few years.

Discretionary variable compensation is primarily designed to reflect the achievements of an individual against set goals, over a certain time period. For an investment professional these goals will typically be 70% quantitative and 30% qualitative. The former will reflect a weighted average of investment performance over a three-year rolling time period (one-year (25%) and three year (75%) results) and the latter reflects contributions to broader team goals, contributions made to client review meetings, product development or product refinement initiatives. Portfolio managers have their performance metric aligned with the benchmarks of the client portfolios they manage.

The LTIP element of the variable compensation, cliff vests three years after each (typically annual) award. Its value is directly tied to the operating result of Allianz Global Investors over the three year period of the award.

The DIF element of the variable compensation, cliff vests three years after each (typically annual) award and enables these members of staff to invest in a range of Allianz Global Investors funds (Investment Professionals are encouraged to invest into their own funds or funds where they may be influential from a research or product group relationship perspective). Again, the value of the DIF awards is determined by the growth of the fund(s) value over the three year period covering each award.

Assuming an annual deferral annual deferral of 33% over a three year period, a typical member of staff will have roughly one year’s variable compensation (3x33%) as a deferred component ‘in the bank.’ Three years after the first award, and for as long as deferred components were awarded without break, cash payments in each year will consist of the annual cash bonus for that current year’s performance as well as a payout from LTIP/DIF commensurate with the prior cumulative three-year performance.

There exist a small number of revenue sharing arrangements that generate variable compensation for specialist investment teams, as well as commission payments for a limited number of members of staff in distribution. These payments are subject to the same deferral rules and deferred instruments as described above for the discretionary compensation scheme.

In addition to competitive compensation, AllianzGI US’ approach to retention includes providing a challenging career path for each professional, a supportive culture to ensure each employee’s progress and a full benefits package.
