Rhea-AI Summary

AllianceBernstein L.P. (AB) reported a significant increase in assets under management (AUM), rising from $647 billion in June to $689 billion by July 31, 2022, marking a 6.5% increase fueled by market appreciation and the acquisition of CarVal Investors. However, net outflows were noted, contributing to a $1.7 billion decrease due to AXA S.A's ongoing redemption of low-fee fixed income mandates, with $2.3 billion still expected to be redeemed. Despite overall outflows, Institutional net flows remained positive for July.

Positive

• Increase in AUM from $647 billion to $689 billion, a 6.5% rise.
• Successful acquisition of CarVal Investors.
• Positive net flows in the Institutional channel in July.

Negative

• $1.7 billion decrease in AUM due to net outflows.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- AllianceBernstein L.P. ("AB") and AllianceBernstein Holding L.P. ("AB Holding") (NYSE: AB) today announced that preliminary assets under management increased to $689 billion during July 2022 from $647 billion at the end of June. The 6.5% increase was driven by market appreciation and the July 1 acquisition of CarVal Investors, partially offset by firm-wide net outflows. By channel, net inflows to Private Wealth were offset by net outflows from Retail and Institutions. July month-end AUM reflected $1.7 billion of outflows resulting from AXA S.A's ongoing redemption of certain low-fee fixed income mandates, of which approximately $2.3 billion remains outstanding and is expected to be redeemed by year-end. Excluding these AXA outflows, Institutional net flows were positive for the month of July.
