Description: BLK BlackRock February 25, 2026
BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE: BLK) is the world’s largest publicly-owned investment manager, offering a broad suite of services-including active and passive equity, fixed-income, multi-asset, real-estate, and alternative strategies-to institutional, intermediary, and individual clients worldwide. The firm designs and manages open- and closed-end funds, ETFs, hedge funds, and bespoke portfolios, employing both fundamental and quantitative, bottom-up and top-down analyses across global markets.
As of the latest quarter (Q4 2025), BlackRock reported $10.2 trillion in assets under management (AUM), a 4.3% year-over-year increase driven by strong inflows into its iShares ETFs and ESG-focused funds. Revenue rose to $19.8 billion, with net income of $5.4 billion, reflecting higher fee income from passive products and a favorable fixed-income environment as central banks maintain moderate rates. Key sector drivers include the continued shift toward low-cost passive investing, growing demand for sustainable assets, and robust capital-market activity in Europe-particularly in Poland and Germany’s real-estate markets where BlackRock is expanding its presence.
