AB International Low Volatility Equity ETF

ILOW

Market cap $1.85B

For much of the past decade, U.S. investors didn't need much convincing to stay close to home. But according to experts at a recent AllianceBernstein (AB) Product Due Diligence Session, the tide shifted dramatically in 2025, signaling a “new dawn” for non-US stocks.

In a few short years, AllianceBernstein (AB) has transformed from an ETF newcomer into a strong and diverse provider of actively managed ETFs. Since launching its initial suite in 2022, the firm has seen considerable demand.

Just three years after launching its first ETFs, AllianceBernstein (AB) recently reached $10 billion in assets. While index-based ETFs from iShares, Vanguard and State Street Investment Management continue to dominate the industry, there has been room for newer entrants to also succeed.

In September 2025, AllianceBernstein (AB) will hit the three-year anniversary of launching its active ETF suite. When we last spotlighted the suite in November 2023, the firm had just crossed the $1 billion mark.

September's seasonal volatility could challenge the Big Tech trade, but one low-volatility ETF is still betting big on it.

On Monday, AllianceBernstein debuted a new international equity strategy, the AB International Low Volatility Equity ETF (ILOW). ILOW seeks to give investors access to capital growth for the long term, while mitigating volatility.
