PROFESSIONAL INVESTOR SOLUTIONS

The institutions we serve at BlackRock – from foundations to large pension funds – collectively serve hundreds of millions of people around the world.

We’re honored to work alongside them as they contribute to the financial futures of the people who depend on them.

Capital at risk. All financial investments involve an element of risk. Therefore, the value of the investment and the income from it will vary and the initial investment amount cannot be guaranteed.

Rely on our innovative solutions and dedicated partnership

The money we invest and manage is not our own – it belongs to our clients. Every investing decision we make must be made in their best interests – and theirs alone. It’s a great responsibility, which we take very seriously.
