BlackRock is not a hedge fund; it is the world's largest multinational publicly traded asset management corporation. Unlike hedge funds—which typically manage private, aggressive investment pools for wealthy accredited investors and institutions using high-risk leverage—BlackRock manages mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), pension portfolios, and institutional assets for millions of everyday retail and institutional investors worldwide, operating primarily as a fiduciary asset manager rather than a private equity or hedge fund operator.
