Fink founded BlackRock in 1988. Today, the company is valued at $7.4 trillion, making it the world’s largest financial firm. In 2024, BlackRock’s market capitalization reached $12.808 trillion, securing its position as the 102nd largest company globally. The firm’s management controls a vast capital, surpassing the GDP of several countries. BlackRock holds 10% of the total shares and bonds worldwide and is often referred to as the ‘Biggest Shadow Bank’. 

Larry Fink is the CEO of BlackRock, yet his name is not listed among the world’s richest billionaires. The reason behind this is that his company primarily manages public funds. Fink makes the decisions on which companies and markets BlackRock will invest in. BlackRock has invested in major global companies, and several Indian companies have also received significant investments from the firm.
