ALLIANCE ALL-ASIA INVESTMENT FUND
ANNUAL REPORT
OCTOBER 31, 1996
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS ALLIANCE ALL-ASIA INVESTMENT FUND, INC.
_______________________________________________________________________________
December 17, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide the annual report to shareholders of the Alliance
All-Asia Investment Fund for the 12 months ended October 31, 1996. Since the
beginning of the fiscal year in November of 1995, the Asian-Pacific markets
have risen about 3.5%, though the most recent six-month period has seen a
decline of over 12%.
INVESTMENT RESULTS
In the table below, the Fund's performance is shown. For comparison, the
performance of the overall stock markets of the Far East, represented by the
unmanaged Morgan Stanley Pacific Index, is shown, along with performance for
the Lipper Pacific Region Funds Average. The Lipper peer group average reflects
performance of 38 funds with investment objectives similar to that of the
All-Asia Investment Fund. As you can see in the chart below, your Fund
outperformed the Morgan Stanley index for the six- and twelve-month periods
ended October 31. The Fund also outperformed its Lipper peer group average for
the fiscal year.

THE MORGAN STANLEY INDEX IS UNMANAGED.
The Fund's total returns are based on the net asset values of each class of
shares as of October 31. Additional investment results appear on page 3.
During the fiscal year, Fund performance benefited from stock selection in
several markets, including Malaysia, Thailand, India, and Hong Kong, as well as
from an overweight position in Malaysia. Despite superior stock selection,
overweight positions in South Korea and Thailand detracted from performance, as
those markets saw significant downturns in the past few months.
TIME TO BUILD ASIAN EXPOSURE
Valuations in the U.S. stock market have risen significantly relative to those
in Asia, despite declines in Asian interest rates. At this point in time, with
the possible exception of Hong Kong equities, we are seeing one of the biggest
divergences between U.S. and Asian price-earnings multiples in recent memory.
The Fund continues to present an outstanding investment opportunity for
investors wishing to switch out of the U.S. stock market into Asian equities.
The Fund has maintained relatively low exposure to those markets that are
highly correlated to the U.S. stock market, such as Hong Kong, and holds
overweight positions in markets with historically low correlation to the U.S.
market, such as South Korea and India.
In the 12 months ended October 31, Malaysia and Hong Kong were each up about
28% in U.S. dollar terms, while Korea and Thailand were both down approximately
the same amount. Much of the decline in the Korean and Thai markets came in the
second half of the fiscal year, brought about largely by political uncertainty
in Thailand and a worsening current account situation in Korea. The Japanese
stock market was up only 1% in U.S. dollar terms during the period, as was the
Indonesian market. Australian and New Zealand equities performed well, up 18%
and 16%, respectively.
We expect the dollar to weaken versus the Japanese yen in the next few months
as U.S. domestic demand picks up while the Japanese economy continues with very
low growth. We also expect Japanese trade numbers to show positive year-on-year
growth by the second quarter of 1997, strengthening our case for a stronger
Japanese yen.

_______________________________________________________________________________
EXPORT GROWTH TO PICK UP
Any rise in U.S. growth during 1997 should translate into better performance
throughout Asia. The rise in Asian exports, combined with declining imports as
private fixed investment slows from historically high levels, should result in
an improvement in the current account balances of countries such as Korea and
Thailand. In the context of a world where growth rates are generally anemic,
Asia, excluding Japan, continues to stand out as a star performer, with growth
rates in excess of 7% on average. At the same time, the monetary picture is
relatively positive. Asian currencies are not overvalued and investment inflows
are strong. We see rates coming down in virtually all markets, with the
possible exceptions of Hong Kong and Japan.
Recent economic data from Japan has been disappointing. Adding to weak consumer
consumption, a recent food poisoning epidemic has constrained consumption of
even basic items such as fresh meat and fish. Consumer durables, however,
appear to be resilient and capital expenditures remain strong. We believe the
housing market should see attractive growth as purchasers attempt to beat the
consumption tax increase slated for April 1997. While monetary policy is likely
to remain loose for the next six months, fiscal policy tightening could cause
the weak recovery to become even more sluggish.
PORTFOLIO STRATEGY
We continue to adhere to a research-intensive stock selection philosophy,
seeking growth stocks with what we consider to be reasonable valuations. We
expect strong earnings momentum for a number of our holdings in communication,
consumer, and financial stocks over the next year. Many of these companies have
growth rates that are higher than those of their local economies, as well as
growth rates of their counterparts in other regions of the world.
Country weightings are an outcome of the stock selection process; we seek to
identify superior companies at attractive valuations rather than maintain
specified country weightings. Our search for such companies has led to
substantial portfolio holdings in Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, India,
Indonesia, and South Korea. Conversely, only a small portion of the portfolio's
assets are invested in Hong Kong, as we believe few Hong Kong stocks are
attractively valued at this time. The portfolio has a relatively small stake in
Japanese equities, as growth prospects outside of the technology sector are not
encouraging. We are adding to some of our positions in India and Indonesia
given price weaknesses in some stocks that we favor. In Malaysia, we are
trimming our exposure to the gaming sector, following strong performance in
these holdings in the past few months.
We are optimistic that 1997 will be a good year for Asian equities. As noted
earlier, valuations for Asian stocks are at quite attractive levels compared to
valuations in the U.S. market. Inflation levels are stable, and interest rates
are likely to fall in a number of Asian countries. At the same time, growth
rates are strong throughout the region, with the exception of Japan. We see the
current period of market uncertainty as an opportunity to add to portfolio
holdings at attractive prices.
As always, we thank you for your continued interest and investment in the
Alliance All-Asia Investment Fund. We look forward to reporting its progress to
you again in the new year.
Sincerely,
John D. Carifa
Chairman and President

This chart illustrates the total value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in
Class A shares. The chart reflects the deduction of the maximum 4.25% sales
charge from an initial $10,000 investment and assumes the reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains. Performance for Class B and C shares will vary
from the results shown above due to differences in expenses charged to those
classes. Results should not be considered representative of future gains or
losses.
Both the Morgan Stanley Pacific Index and the Lipper Pacific Region Funds
Average are unmanaged. The broad-based Morgan Stanley Index is a common measure
of overall stock market activity in the Far East. The Lipper average reflects
performance of 38 funds with investment objectives that are generally similar
to that of the Alliance All-Asia Investment Fund.
When comparing Alliance All-Asia Investment Fund to the indices shown above,
remember that sales charges and expenses are not reflected in the performance
of the MSCIPacific Index and sales charges are not reflected in the Lipper

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 1996 ALLIANCE ALL-ASIA INVESTMENT FUND, INC.
_______________________________________________________________________________
NOTE A: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Alliance All-Asia Investment Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), was organized as a
Maryland corporation on September 21, 1994 and is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a non-diversified, open-end management
investment company. On April 15, 1996 the Board of Directors approved the
creation of the fourth class of shares, Advisor Class shares. The Fund had no
operations other than the sale to Alliance Capital Management L.P. (the
"Adviser") of 10,000 shares of Class A common stock and 100 shares each of
Class B and Class C shares of common stock for the aggregate amount of $102,000
on October 18, 1994. Class A, Class B and Class C shares commenced operations
on November 28, 1994. The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C and Advisor
Class shares. Distribution of Advisor Class shares commenced on October 2,
1996. Class A shares are sold with an initial sales charge of up to 4.25%.
Class B shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge which declines
from 4.00% to zero depending on the period of time the shares are held. Class B
shares will automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after the end
of the calendar month of purchase. Class C shares purchased on or after July 1,
1996 are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% on redemptions
made within the first year after purchase. Advisor Class shares are sold
without an initial or contingent deferred sales charge and are not subject to
ongoing distribution expenses. Advisor Class shares are offered solely to
investors participating in fee-based programs. All four classes of shares have
identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, except that each
class bears different distribution expenses and has exclusive voting rights
with respect to its distribution plan. The following is a summary of
significant accounting policies followed by the Fund.
1. SECURITY VALUATION
Portfolio securities traded on a national securities exchange for which market
quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sales price on
that exchange prior to the time when assets are valued. Securities listed or
traded on certain foreign exchanges whose operations are similar to the U.S.
over-the-counter market are valued at the price within the limits of the latest
available current bid and asked price deemed best to reflect fair value.
Securities which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market value, unless this method does not represent fair value.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available and restricted
securities are valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by
the Board of Directors. In determining fair value, consideration is given to
cost, operating and other financial data.
2. ORGANIZATION EXPENSES
Organization expenses of approximately $201,500 have been deferred and are
being amortized on a straight-line basis through October, 1999.
3. CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and commitments under
forward exchange currency contracts are translated into U.S. dollars at the
mean of the quoted bid and asked price of such currencies against the U.S.
dollar.
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities are translated at the rates of
exchange prevailing when such securities were acquired or sold. Income and
expenses are translated at rates of exchange prevailing when accrued.
Net realized gain on foreign currency transactions represents foreign exchange
gains and losses from sales and maturities of securities and foreign currency
contracts, the holding of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized
between the trade and settlement dates on foreign security transactions, and
the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign taxes
receivable recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the
amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains and losses
from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities at period end
exchange rates are reflected as a component of net change in unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) of investments and foreign currency denominated
assets and liabilities.
4. TAXES
It is the Fund's policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its
investment company taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to
shareholders. Therefore, no provisions for federal income or excise taxes are
required.
12
ALLIANCE ALL-ASIA INVESTMENT FUND, INC.
_______________________________________________________________________________
5. INVESTMENT INCOME AND INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued
daily. Investment transactions are accounted for on the date securities are
purchased or sold. Investment gains and losses are determined on the identified
cost basis. The Fund accretes discounts on short-term securities as adjustments
to interest income.
6. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend
date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations.
7. RECLASSIFICATION OF NET ASSETS
As of October 31, 1996, the Fund reclassified certain components of net assets.
The reclassification resulted in a net increase to additional paid-in capital
of $6,698 and a net decrease to accumulated net investment loss and accumulated
net realized gain on investments and foreign currency transactions of $573,552
and $580,250 respectively. These reclassifications were the result of permanent
book and tax differences, primarily resulting from foreign currency gains. Net
assets were not affected by this change.
NOTE B: ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Under an investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays Alliance Capital
Management, L.P. ("the Adviser"), a fee at an annual rate of 1% of the Fund's
average daily net assets. Such fee is accrued daily and paid monthly. The
Adviser has agreed, under the terms of the advisory agreement, to reimburse the
Fund to the extent that its aggregate expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes,
brokerage, distribution fees, foreign custody fees, extraordinary expenses and
certain other expenses) exceed the limits prescribed by any state in which the
Fund's shares are qualified for sale. At October 31, 1996 the Adviser has
voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its Advisory fees. Such waiver
amounted to $71,729 for the year ended October 31, 1996.
Under the terms of an Administrative Agreement, the Fund pays Alliance Capital
Management, L.P. (the "Administrator"), a monthly fee equal to the annualized
rate of .15 of 1% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Such compensation
amounted to $43,547 for the year ended October 31, 1996.
The Administrator provides administrative functions to the Fund as well as
other clerical services. The Administrator also prepares financial and
regulatory reports for the Fund.
The Fund compensates Alliance Fund Services, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Adviser) under a Transfer Agency Agreement for providing personnel and
facilities to perform transfer agency services for the Fund. Such compensation
amounted to $57,729 for the year ended October 31, 1996.
Alliance Fund Distributors, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser)
serves as the Distributor of the Fund's shares. The Distributor received
front-end sales charges of $13,026 from the sale of Class A shares and $9,985
in contingent deferred sales charges imposed upon redemptions by shareholders
of Class B shares for the year ended October 31, 1996.
Brokerage commissions paid on securities transactions for the year ended
October 31, 1996 amounted to $395,188, of which $4,181 was paid to a broker
utilizing the services of an affiliate of the Adviser.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(CONTINUED) ALLIANCE ALL-ASIA INVESTMENT FUND, INC.
_______________________________________________________________________________
NOTE C: DISTRIBUTION SERVICES AGREEMENT
The Fund has adopted a Distribution Services Agreement (the "Agreement")
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the
Agreement, the Fund pays a distribution fee to the Distributor at an annual
rate of up to .30 of 1% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to
Class A shares and 1% of the average daily net assets attributable to both
Class B and Class C shares. There is no distribution fee on the Advisor Class
shares. The fees are accrued daily and paid monthly. The Agreement provides
that the Distributor will use such payments in their entirety for distribution
assistance and promotional activities. The Distributor has incurred expenses in
excess of the distribution costs reimbursed by the Fund in the amount of
$1,402,190 and $93,183 for Class B and Class C shares respectively. Such costs
may be recovered from the Fund in future periods so long as the Agreement is in
effect. In accordance with the Agreement, there is no provision for recovery of
unreimbursed distribution costs, incurred by the Distributor, beyond the
current fiscal year for Class A shares. The Agreement also provides that the
Adviser may use its own resources to finance the distribution of the Fund's
shares.
NOTE D: INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term and U.S.
Government obligations) aggregated $50,500,866 and $18,095,395, respectively,
for the year ended October 31, 1996. There were no purchases or sales of U.S.
government or government agency obligations for the year ended October 31,
1996.
At October 31, 1996, the cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was
$41,981,024. Gross unrealized appreciation of investments was $1,887,090 and
gross unrealized depreciation of investments was $3,803,391 resulting in net
unrealized depreciation of ($1,916,301).
FORWARD EXCHANGE CURRENCY CONTRACT
The Fund enters into forward exchange currency contracts for investment
purposes and to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange
rates on its foreign portfolio holdings and to hedge certain firm purchase and
sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies. A forward exchange currency
contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future
date at a negotiated forward rate. The gain or loss arising from the difference
between the original contracts and the closing of such contracts is included in
net realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions.
Fluctuations in the value of forward exchange currency contracts are recorded
for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund.
The Fund's custodian will place and maintain cash not available for investment
or other liquid high quality debt securities in a separate account of the Fund
having a value equal to the aggregate amount of the Fund's commitments under
forward exchange currency contracts entered into with respect to position
hedges.
Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the
terms of a contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign
currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. There were no forward exchange currency
contracts outstanding at October 31, 1996.

ALLIANCE ALL-ASIA INVESTMENT FUND, INC.
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of

of investments, as of October 31, 1996, and the related statement of operations
for the year ended, and the statement of changes in net assets and financial
highlights for the year ended October 31, 1996 and for the period from November

statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial

test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
October 31, 1996, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Alliance All-Asia Investment Fund, Inc. at October 31, 1996, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets and
