NEW YORK, March 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- AllianceBernstein
L.P. and AllianceBernstein Holding L.P. (NYSE: AB) today announced
that preliminary assets under management increased to $424 billion from $421
billion during February 2012.
The 1% increase was due to market appreciation and modest net
inflows in Retail, partially offset by net outflows in Institutions
and Private Client. More than half of the outflows in Institutions
resulted from the previously announced dissolution of an AXA joint
venture in Australia.
