The Austrian-German actor plays the part of a well-groomed man rather stuck in his ways.

In the ‘Start Making Cents’ ad campaign, viewers see actor Christoph Waltz carry out various daily rituals, from debobbling his sweaters to elaborately applying moisturizer.

As he very carefully completes each task, it becomes obvious that the care and thought that he puts into them could also be applied to managing money, especially when it comes to investments – which is where Allianz comes in, the Munich-headquartered multinational financial service company highlighting how it hopes to make people ”think twice” before making money decisions.
