bing news | BlackRock CEO Larry Fink took home nearly $38M last year for leading world’s largest investment firm

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink’s 2025 compensation jumped to $37.7 million, up from $30.8 million the year before. The pay package consisted of a $1.5 million base salary, a $10.6 million cash bonus and a $6.5 million increase in stock awards, accounting for the bulk of the $7 million rise in total remuneration.

The increase drew criticism from proxy adviser Institutional Shareholder Services, which last year recommended that investors oppose the firm’s executive pay plans. Despite that, BlackRock reported that 67 % of votes cast supported the compensation package. In January, the asset manager disclosed that its assets under management had hit a record $14 trillion, and it posted a fourth‑quarter 2025 net profit of $2.18 billion, excluding one‑time charges.

In a letter to investors, Fink said the company is entering 2026 with “elevated momentum” and is positioned ahead of significant future opportunities. The firm’s shares rose 4.5 % in 2025, although they have declined more than 12 % so far this year.

yahoo news | Larry Fink and Making BlackRock Great Again

Larry Fink, chief executive of BlackRock—the world’s largest asset manager with roughly $14 trillion under management and a fresh influx of $1.8 trillion over the past five years—has become more than just a financial overseer. Since 2012 he has issued annual public letters to the CEOs of every publicly‑traded company in BlackRock’s portfolio, laying out a vision of “purpose‑driven” capitalism. The letters, echoing the style of Warren Buffett’s shareholder missives, have turned the firm’s sheer scale into a platform for shaping the rules of the market, arguing that companies must serve broader societal goals, improve governance, and address climate risk.

In recent months Fink has embraced a distinctly American brand of “national capitalism,” urging companies to prioritize domestic investment, supply‑chain resilience, and infrastructure that supports U.S. strategic interests. The author of the piece, John Authers, contends that this rhetoric is misplaced: the United States’ historic investment dynamism has not stemmed from protectionist policies but from a system that welcomed global capital, allowed firms to pursue the most profitable opportunities abroad, and rewarded innovation through open markets. By turning BlackRock’s clout toward a nativist agenda, Fink risks sidelining the very drivers—cross‑border money flows and competitive risk‑taking—that have powered U.S. growth for decades.

Authers warns that conflating the stewardship of a massive fund with the advocacy of a nationalist economic doctrine creates a dangerous precedent. When the world’s largest pool of money starts policing where investment should go, it amplifies policy influence beyond democratic checks and may skew capital toward politically favored sectors rather than the most efficient uses. The article calls for a clearer separation between the fiduciary role of asset managers and the political ambitions of their CEOs, reminding readers that “national capitalism” cannot replace the open, globally‑connected investment landscape that has historically underpinned America’s prosperity.

Going all-in on national capitalism misses where US investment growth comes from.

Negli ultimi giorni si parla di un cambiamento profondo nella finanza globale. #Amundi, il più grande #assetmanager europeo, sta riducendo l’esposizione ad alcuni asset statunitensi per aumentare la diversificazione verso Europa e mercati emergenti. Non è una fuga dagli Stati Uniti né un segnale di crisi, ma una scelta strategica legata a valutazioni elevate, valute e incertezze geopolitiche. Il focus è su equilibrio, gestione del rischio e adattamento a un mondo multipolare.
