Our Philosophy: One BlackRock
Since our founding, BlackRock’s core philosophy has been grounded in the belief that experienced investment professionals using a disciplined process and sophisticated analytical tools can consistently add value to client portfolios. With this as a framework, BlackRock has assembled teams of investment professionals with significant expertise in global capital markets. Through BlackRock Solutions, we continue to invest substantial resources in the ongoing development of our technology and analytic capabilities, for both internal users and BlackRock Solutions clients. Our focus on investment excellence and state-of-the-art analytics is complemented by an unwavering, senior-level commitment to service; this results in dynamic client relationships and enables us to assist clients with a range of services, including an understanding of liabilities and asset allocation needs.
BlackRock takes a three dimensional approach to the management of the organization, incorporating functional, product and regional elements in support of our clients’ goals. The functional dimension looks at our operations by specific task, such as portfolio management, account management or operations. The product dimension brings together the cross-disciplinary expertise critical to managing client assets in each class. Finally, the regional aspect of our model recognizes the unique, geography-specific needs of clients as well as the importance of local regulatory issues.
Distinct but interconnected, these factors work together to inform all of our business decisions and result in a firm that is globally efficient and locally effective. With our three-dimensional approach to managing the organization, we seek to:
- ensure consistency on a global basis;
- allow for the tailoring of products and services according to client or local needs;
- promote teamwork among our employees worldwide; and
- facilitate operational integrity and efficiency
Given our size, scope and global footprint we strive for a consistent, interconnected approach "One BlackRock."
