Business: Their approximately 12,200 employees and advisors are entrusted with more than $670 billion of assets under management through two complementary and well-established principal franchises, AXA Equitable Life and AllianceBernstein, providing:

Advice and solutions for helping Americans set and meet their retirement goals and protect and transfer their wealth across generations; and

A wide range of investment management insights, expertise and innovations to drive better investment decisions and outcomes for clients and institutional investors worldwide.

They believe that the growing and aging U.S. population, shift of responsibility for retirement planning from employers to individuals and overall growth in total investable assets will drive significant demand for their products and services going forward. Throughout their long history, they have embraced change and looked to the future, and they continue to see significant opportunities to find new solutions and new ways to deliver service to clients within their target markets.

They have a leading position at the intersection of advice, asset management and financial protection that they believe provides their clients with products and solutions that meet their long-term financial needs and their stockholders with attractive growth prospects.

Financials:  Their total revenues were $8.34 billion, $13.08 billion, $10.08 billion,
$11.92 billion and $12.51 billion and their net income (loss) attributable to Holdings was ($1.40 billion), $1.64 billion, $333 million, $1.27 billion and $850 million in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively. The $422 million decrease in net income attributable to Holdings to $850 million for the year ended 2017 from $1,272 million for the year ended 2016 was primarily driven by lower investment gains of $2.2 billion mainly due to a non-recurring $1.9 billion realized gain on the sale of two real estate properties in New York City for the year ended 2016, and losses of $0.2 billion in 2017 mainly due to the disposal of their commercial-mortgage backed securities portfolio and the sale of U.S. treasury securities.
