NEW YORK, Oct. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AllianceBernstein Holding L.P. (NYSE: AB Stock Forums) and AllianceBernstein L.P. today reported that during the month of September, preliminary assets under management increased by approximately $30 billion, or 3.9%, to $813 billion at September 30, 2007, the result of strong investment returns, with the exception of certain hedge fund services which performed poorly.
