Larry Fink's Warnings and Insights on Climate Investing, Tokenization, Inflation, and Innovation.

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink's annual letter to shareholders departs from previous years' emphasis on climate risk and ESG investments, but still acknowledges the importance of climate concerns as an investment risk. Fink positions BlackRock as offering choices to clients and takes a more hands-off approach to proxy voting than in years past. However, environmental groups caution against Fink's messaging on consumer choice, stating that BlackRock appears to be giving ground to those trying to undermine the finance sector's role in addressing the climate crisis.
