The Bid

Climate change is reshaping the global economy. And we believe it’s not just an investment risk – it’s an investment opportunity. But most ignore the effect of climate change in their economic projections. We think that’s wrong.On the last episode of a five-part mini-series on our global outlook, Vivek Paul, Senior Investment Strategist for the BlackRock Investment Institute, shares his outlook for sustainability this year. He details BlackRock’s new climate-aware return assumptions, including the dramatic effects on economic growth and sectoral performance, and explains why the sustainability wave is just getting started.This material is for informational purposes and is prepared by BlackRock, is not intended to be relied upon as a forecast, research or investment advice, and is not a recommendation, offer or solicitation to buy or sell any securities or to adopt any investment strategy.

Thirty-two years ago, BlackRock’s Chairman and CEO, Larry Fink, rallied seven other people to found a small bond firm. Since then, BlackRock has grown into a global asset manager. Following the Global Financial Crisis, Larry began an annual tradition of writing a letter to CEOs on behalf of our clients – the institutions and individuals who invest in these companies to achieve their financial goals.On this special episode of The Bid, Larry talks about how the events of 2020 shaped his thinking in developing this year’s letter, why “net zero” will reshape the economy and why companies driven by purpose will thrive moving forward.This material is for informational purposes and is prepared by BlackRock, is not intended to be relied upon as a forecast, research or investment advice, and is not a recommendation, offer or solicitation to buy or sell any securities or to adopt any investment strategy.
