BlackRock Chief Executive Larry Fink has accused Republican presidential candidates of spreading “misinformation” about the trillion-dollar asset manager during the fourth Republican presidential debate in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, on Dec. 6.
Mr. Fink shared a lengthy post on the employment platform LinkedIn following Wednesday’s debate, during which Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy made various criticisms regarding the New York-headquartered investment firm and its growing support for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) proposals in recent years.
