AXA to list AllianceBernstein alongside US insurance arm

AXA, the French insurance giant, said on Wednesday it plans to list its large US life-insurance operations - including a stake in AllianceBernstein, its US fund management arm.

The French group said it hoped to raise billions of dollars from the sale in the first half of 2018, by selling a minority stake in the combined life-insurance and asset management company, the Wall Street Journal reports.
