Versatile Platform

AB’s versatile alternatives platform is built for investment reality and long-term relationships, because markets evolve and objectives change. Our diverse spectrum of sophisticated, distinctive strategies—hedge-fund solutions and private alternatives—are designed to deliver differently…and solve for a continuous stream of new challenges.

Big-Firm Experience

The integrity and operational performance of AB’s alternatives solutions stand on the firm’s global scale, financial stability and quiet strength at every stage of the investment lifecycle. As one of the world’s largest asset managers, with decades of experience, we’ll continue delivering alternatives differently for clients ranging from individual investors to the most sophisticated institutions.

There can be no assurance that any alternative investment strategy will achieve its investment objectives. The value of an investment can go down as well as up and investors may not get back the full amount they invested. Capital is at risk.
