BlackRock has reported $15.3tn in assets under management (AUM), with inflows spread across its platform and led by exchange traded funds (ETFs), private markets, and “systematic equity strategies”.
This follows $868bn of net inflows over the last twelve months, reflecting 10% organic base fee growth
The asset manager’s net attributable income for the quarter was $1.9bn, up 20% from a year earlier. Operating income rose 42% to $2.4bn, while revenue increased 31% year-on-year to $7.08bn. The company linked the change to market moves, organic base fee growth, fees connected to the HPS Transaction, higher performance fees, and increased technology services and subscription revenue.
Net inflows for the first half totalled $321bn, including $192bn in the second quarter. During the quarter, the company repurchased $450m of shares. Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenue were $1.3bn higher than in the second quarter of 2025, which BlackRock attributed mainly to market beta on average AUM, organic base fee growth and around $230m of HPS Transaction-related fees.
