BlackRock completes acquisition of Preqin

BlackRock announced the successful completion of its acquisition of Preqin, a premier independent provider of private markets data. The transaction advances BlackRock’s private markets capabilities to serve clients’ whole portfolios.

Rob Goldstein, BlackRock’s COO, and Mark O’Hare, Preqin’s Founder, discuss how Preqin advances BlackRock’s private market capabilities, enabling the delivery of integrated investment, technology and data solutions across clients’ whole portfolios.

BlackRock is a perpetual reinvention machine, evolving continuously to stay ahead of our clients’ rapidly changing needs. Today clients are seeking a ‘common language’ for investing that requires better data to drive investment decisions, manage risk, and construct portfolios. With Preqin, a part of BlackRock, we will seek to meet this need, accelerating clients’ ability to allocate to the growth of private markets and furthering our aspirations to deliver greater value across their whole portfolios.
