The money management giant is looking for a new Washington, DC-based head of US government affairs and public policy as well as a new head of state government affairs, wrote John Kelly, BlackRock's global head of corporate affairs, in a previously unreported company memo last week.

Reshaping the key policy groupA string of roles in the public policy group are changing to meet this new reality. The firm's public policy group has about 40 people, some 25 of whom are on Cound's team focused on international policy. Novick launched the firm's public policy efforts in 2009.

Goldstone was referring to a type of business-development company, an investment vehicle widely used in the private-credit market. The vehicle Condor allocated to is a slice of BlackRock's $81 billion private-credit business, which is part of the wider $317 billion alternative-assets platform. 'Size matters'In the summer, BlackRock executives teased out their focus on private credit and fixed income broadly during an investor-day presentation. BlackRock's string of private-credit developments adds up to a long-term bet that this dynamic will continue. "That, in essence, is the paradox of private credit."

"BlackRock has posted industry-leading organic growth over the last year while most of our competitors are experiencing persistent outflows," a company spokesperson told Insider. I criticize the way they defended it," Seifert told Insider. "Given no mortal can fill Larry's shoes, there is a high risk they pick some Jeff Immelt equivalent," Keeley told Insider. Fink chose to make his letters public, which leads to concerns that Fink wrote them as a PR exercise. However, the most effective engagement is typically private," Edmans told Insider.

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink took a 30% pay cut last year, pocketing a total of $25.2 million. Apple's Tim Cook, Goldman Sach's David Solomon, and Google's Sundar Pichai are other CEOs taking pay cuts. Fink — who co-founded BlackRock in 1988 — made $36 million in 2021.

HONG KONG, Oct 27 (Reuters) - Citigroup (C.N) Chief Executive Jane Fraser will not attend next week's Global Financial Leaders' Investment Summit in Hong Kong as she has tested positive for COVID-19, a person with knowledge of the matter told Reuters. It did not say if Chan would attend the summit. Citi's Fraser was set to join the heads of some of the world's top banks and asset managers at the summit. A Citi spokesperson confirmed the development and said that Fraser looked forward to visiting Hong Kong in the near future. Goldman Sachs (GS.N) CEO David Solomon, Morgan Stanley (MS.N) boss James Gorman and BlackRock (BLK.N) President Rob Kapito are among the speakers scheduled to attend, according to the summit organiser, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA).
HONG KONG, Oct 27 (Reuters) - Hong Kong's Financial Secretary Paul Chan tested positive for COVID-19 during a visit to Saudi Arabia and will stay there for a "short while" to observe health requirements, the city's government said on Thursday. Chan had been due to complete his visit to Saudi Arabia and return to Hong Kong on Thursday but had tested positive before setting off for home. Hong Kong has scrapped mandatory hotel quarantine but international arrivals still can not enter some places, like bars and restaurants, on the first three days of their visit. Participants in the banking event from abroad will be have to take a COVID test before beginning their journey to Hong Kong, upon arrival and throughout the three-day medical surveillance period, the HKMA said.

WASHINGTON, Oct 27 (Reuters) - Two U.S. lawmakers on Thursday urged top American bankers to cancel their planned attendance at a Hong Kong financial summit next week, saying their participation would contribute to Chinese government rights abuses. Hong Kong officials hope the event will signal a re-opening from COVID-19 border restrictions, but it has raised the ire of Hong Kong activists after authorities used a national security law to stifle dissent in the former British colony. The State Department last year warned U.S. businesses of civil and criminal penalties should they violate U.S. sanctions by "engaging in certain transactions" with sanctioned Hong Kong and Chinese officials. Hong Kong reverted to Chinese from British rule in 1997 with the guarantee of a high degree of autonomy, which critics say Beijing has significantly eroded. Republicans, who hope to win control of Congress in November midterm elections, have also slammed executives for their plans to attend the Hong Kong event.
HONG KONG (Reuters) -The heads of some of the world’s top banks and asset managers will attend an investment summit in Hong Kong on Nov. 2, the city’s financial regulator said on Thursday, signalling a re-opening of the financial hub after strict pandemic-linked curbs. Goldman Sachs Group Inc CEO David Solomon, Citigroup Inc head Jane Fraser, Morgan Stanley boss James Gorman and BlackRock Inc President Rob Kapito will be among the speakers at the Global Financial Leaders’ Investment Summit, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) said. Hong Kong’s unrelenting COVID curbs have battered its economy and standing as a financial centre. Some banks had warned top bosses would not attend if any restrictions remained in place. HKMA Chief Executive Eddie Yue said on Thursday the final guidelines for those attending the summit were still being finalised.
After BlackRock acquired private credit firm Tennenbaum Capital Partners, more than a dozen employees left the small investment team. Former BlackRock employees say underwhelming pay and unfulfilled promises that the team could raise its own special situations fund led to widespread frustration and departures. The departures come as BlackRock aims to compete more aggressively in private credit, a key part of its high-priority alternatives push. Still, in recent years management has made it clear that its private investment capabilities need to be an important engine of growth. "It's not to say that the private credit market is easy to manage talent.
One of the reporters noted that Powell's public calendar showed calls with Larry Fink, BlackRock's chief executive, in March, April, and May. The exchange was hardly the first time no-bid contracts between the Fed and BlackRock's Financial Markets Advisory unit raised questions. Still, former employees told Insider that FMA has served as a clear source of public-facing clout for BlackRock. "The FMA clients have extended their advisory relationships to be multiyear." A little over a year ago, FMA pulled employees out of BlackRock's office there, three former employees said.
