Yahoo Finance AllianceBernstein's (AB) March AUM Up on Market Appreciation
AllianceBernstein Holding L.P. AB has announced assets under management (AUM) for March 2024. The company’s preliminary month-end AUM of $759 billion reflects a 5% rise from the end of February 2024.
The increase was mainly driven by market appreciation, partly offset by net outflows. The company noted that excluding a $3 billion low-fee passive institutional redemption, net flows were positive for March and in each channel.
At the end of March, AllianceBernstein’s Equity AUM increased 1.5% on a sequential basis to $329 billion. Alternatives/Multi-Asset Solutions AUM (including certain multi-asset services and solutions) rose 2.9% to $143 billion. Fixed Income AUM of $287 billion increased 1.4% from the end of February 2024.
In terms of channel, March month-end institutions AUM of $323 billion increased 1.6% from the previous month. Retail AUM was $308 billion, up 2% from the prior month’s end. Private Wealth AUM of $128 billion increased 2.4% from the February 2024 level.
AllianceBernstein’s global reach and solid AUM balance are likely to boost top-line growth. However, rising operating costs and a challenging operating backdrop are major near-term concerns.
