NEW YORK, Aug. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- AllianceBernstein
L.P. ("AB") and AllianceBernstein Holding L.P. ("AB Holding")
(NYSE: AB) today announced that preliminary assets under management
increased to $492 billion during
July 2016 from $490 billion at the end of June. The 0.4%
increase resulted entirely from market appreciation, which offset
net outflows from all three client channels. As previously
announced, July month-end AUM reflects $6.7
billion in outflows -- $6.3
billion from Retail and $400
million from Private Wealth Management -- that resulted from
the conclusion of our 529 CollegeBound Fund relationship
with the state of Rhode Island. In
addition, we experienced $1.1 billion
in Institutional outflows from our relationship with AIG,
consistent with AIG's plan to significantly reduce its hedge fund
exposure and begin managing its remaining alternative assets
in-house. As reported on our second quarter earnings call, we
expect these redemptions to total approximately $7 billion and to be completed by the end of the
third quarter.
