Larry Fink

Larry Fink may not be a household name, but the scale of what he commands should stop anyone cold. From Van Nuys to UCLA to co-founding BlackRock, he built the largest asset manager on earth, steering well over ten trillion dollars in assets. What interests me is the nature of his power: it isn't loud or televised, yet his decisions quietly ripple through pensions, markets, and economies worldwide. I tend to think the truly consequential figures are the ones operating offstage, turning the gears of history without applause.
