Higher Fees, ETF Growth Drive Gains

BlackRock's revenue rose in the second quarter and first half of 2024 thanks to higher fees and a record first half of the year for inflows into the firm's 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which saw about $150 bi🍒llion in net inflows so far this year, $83 billion of which came in the second quarter.

“BlackRock generated nearly $140 billion of total net inflows in the first half of 2024, including $82 billion in the second quarter resulting in 3% organic base fee growth," BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said Monday. "Organic growth was driven by private markets, retail active fixed income, and surging flows into our ETFs, which had their best start to a year on record."

The ETF growth in the 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:first two quarters was also boosted by trading activity in the firm's new spot Bitcoin ETFs, which were 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:approved for the first time earlier💯 tꦉhis year.
