BLACKROCK ACTIVE

A bigger role for active strategies

In the new regime of higher interest rates and greater macro and market volatility, we believe there is a bigger role for active strategies and more potential opportunities for skilled managers to find and deliver active returns.

Generating alpha now and in the future

Active managers aim to generate the excess returns to meet investors’ long-term objectives. BlackRock’s scale supports our key competitive advantage – we believe we have the ability to unlock unique sources of alpha through deep collaboration.

Below you will find insight from our active investment teams on the areas of the market they believe offer alpha opportunities across:

  • Fundamental equities
  • Systematic equities
  • Fixed income
  • Multi-Asset
  • Liquid alternatives

Capital at risk. All financial investments involve an element of risk. Therefore, the value of the investment and the income from it will vary and the initial investment amount cannot be guaranteed.

The quest for quality

Great businesses that can sustain high returns over long periods are rare but, we believe, may offer significant alpha – especially as markets have a history of undervaluing these winning business models.

Marshalling the mega forces

The market may be underestimating some long-term drivers of growth – or mega forces – such as digital disruption and AI, healthcare and the low-carbon materials transition.

Regional opportunities

Europe and Japan are ripe for stock pickers to source quality and earnings linked to the mega forces.
