History
Origins
AllianceBernstein traces its origins back to Sanford C. Bernstein and the founding of his eponymous private investment firm in 1967. Later in 1968, Bernstein partnered with Zalman Bernstein, Paul P. Bernstein, Shepard D. Osherow, Roger Hertog and Lewis A Sanders to form Sanford C. Bernstein & Company.[4]
Alliance Capital was founded in 1971 when the investment-management department of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette merged with the investment-advisory business of Moody's Investor Services
