AllianceBernstein Reports Increase in Assets Under Management as of October 2025

AllianceBernstein Announces Assets Under Management Rise

On November 11, 2025, AllianceBernstein L.P. (commonly referred to as AB) revealed that its preliminary assets under management (AUM) reached an impressive $869 billion as of October 31, 2025. This reflects a rise from $860 billion at the end of September 2025, illustrating a solid 1% increase.

The uptick in assets was primarily attributed to market appreciation, combined with modest net inflows observed during the month. While institutional clients contributed positively with net inflows, this was somewhat countered by outflows from retail clients and modest net outflows in private wealth segments. Notably, outflows were observed in the retail category, indicating some challenges faced in maintaining retail investor confidence amidst the changing market landscape.

The detailed breakdown of the assets shows that the equity segment continues to perform robustly, constituting a total of $362 billion, of which active management accounted for $283 billion. Passive equity solutions added another $79 billion, showcasing a healthy interest in a diversified approach among investors.

In the fixed income category, total assets amounted to $314 billion. Taxable bonds stood out with $217 billion, while tax-exempt bonds accounted for $88 billion. The passive fixed income solutions have gradually gained traction, though still represent a smaller segment at $9 billion compared to active funds.

Complementing these figures, the alternatives and multi-asset solutions segment also showed significant growth, coming up to $193 billion, reinforcing AB's diversified product offerings that cater to varying investor appetites.

Despite the overall positive growth trajectory, AllianceBernstein remains vigilant about potential risks associated with market volatility. A cautionary note was issued regarding forward-looking statements made in recent communications, signaling an understanding of the unpredictability inherent in financial markets. These forward-looking statements carry inherent uncertainties that could impact actual results. Factors such as economic conditions, performance of sponsored investment products, and regulatory changes could all play a role in shaping the company’s future performance.
