BlackRocks Revolving Door Exposed

Описание: The Fed's emergency liquidity injection lifted the whole market. But the program's structure ensured BlackRock's own funds saw immediate benefit.

The firm's expertise in fixed income and ETFs became the channel through which public support reached private portfolios. When the Fed intervened, the largest and most liquid funds—often BlackRock's—became the default vehicles.

This strengthened BlackRock's position and exposed how, in moments of crisis, policymakers rely on the very firms that dominate market infrastructure.

The influence extended beyond contracts. Personnel moved freely between the firm and government.

Matt Liu, once head of global credit analytics for Aladdin, joined the Treasury's Office of Financial Stability. Lindsey F. Baker, a former managing director, took a senior post at the Federal Reserve Board. Larry Fink maintained regular contact with central bankers, reinforcing ties that blurred the boundaries between public policy and private capital.

The revolving door spins both ways. And the public pays the fare.

SOVEREIGN is the channel that explains the financial logic running underneath history. Every empire, every crash, every revolution has a balance sheet behind it. Most people never see it.
