NEW YORK, April 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- AllianceBernstein

(NYSE: AB) today announced that preliminary assets under management
decreased to $486 billion during
March 2015 from $488 billion at the end of February. The 0.4%
decrease was the result of market depreciation, including the

and Retail and negative in Private Wealth.
