(Sharecast News) - Asset manager BlackRock posted its biggest quarterly inflows on record, pushing assets under management above $14trn for the first time in the company's history, up from $11.6trn a year earlier.

Blackrock saw $342bn of investor capital in the three months ended 31 December, smashing past Wall Street expectations of $269bn, principally due to its equity and fixed income units.

The New York-based company said investors had poured in $268bn on a net basis to its long-term investment funds, including $181bn to its exchange-trade fund business that now has $5.5trn overall.

"BlackRock enters 2026 with accelerating momentum across our entire platform, coming off the strongest year and quarter of net inflows in our history," chief executive Larry Fink said.
