About BlackRock
BlackRock is the world's largest asset manager with approximately $11 trillion in assets under management across active and passive strategies, alternatives, and the Aladdin technology platform used by other asset managers and asset owners. Founded in 1988 by Larry Fink and seven partners and headquartered in New York City, the firm rose to industry leadership in part by acquiring Barclays Global Investors and the iShares ETF business in 2009. BlackRock's iShares is the largest ETF brand in the world. The firm has been expanding into private markets through major acquisitions including Global Infrastructure Partners, Preqin, and HPS Investment Partners.
About the BlackRock logo
The BlackRock (BLK) logo is part of the Tickericons pack — a hand-crafted set of logos for every company in the S&P 500. Each logo is manually redrawn to a consistent grid, weight, and corner radius so BLK sits cleanly next to other tickers in cap tables, dashboards, equity research, and fintech UI.
You get two styles: the trademark (just the symbol, ideal for grids and tight UI) and the full logo (mark plus wordmark, ideal when there's room to breathe). Both ship as scalable SVG, high-resolution PNG, and reusable Figma components.
BlackRock was added to the S&P 500 on Apr 4, 2011 and is currently classified under the Financials sector.
