AllianceBernstein Announces September 30, 2010 Assets Under Management
 
Third Quarter 2010 Earnings Conference Call to be Held on October 29, 2010 at 8:30 A.M. (EDT)

 
New York, NY, October 12, 2010 – AllianceBernstein L.P. and AllianceBernstein Holding L.P. (NYSE: AB) today announced that preliminary assets under management increased to $484 billion from $467 billion during September 2010. The 3.7% increase was due to positive equity investment returns, partially offset by net asset outflows mainly from institutional accounts. Two accounts – a non-actively managed account, which generates substantially lower fees than other such accounts, and a U.S. Large Cap Growth account – comprised half of the institutional outflows.
