Allianz’s PIMCO, L&G Sued in Scrap Over €1.2 Billion Brussels Tower
Allianz’s PIMCO and Legal & General Group (L&G) face a high-stakes lawsuit in the English High Court over the future of Brussels' iconic €1.2 billion Finance Tower. The skyscraper’s ultimate owner, South Korea-listed JR Global REIT, collapsed into insolvency in April, triggering a bitter dispute between the lenders and the property's management.

The lawsuit accuses PIMCO and L&G of exerting "undue pressure" on property valuers in an aggressive attempt to freeze the tower's rental income.
