The Shadow Kingmaker: How BlackRock's Larry Fink Seized Control of the World Economic Forum

Inside the Corporate Coup That Puts $10 Trillion Behind Globalist Agenda

The appointment of Larry Fink, chairman and CEO of BlackRock, as interim co-chairman of the World Economic Forum represents far more than a routine leadership transition. It marks the consolidation of unprecedented financial power within the world’s most influential globalist organization, creating conflicts of interest so profound they validate the darkest warnings of conspiracy theorists while simultaneously advancing the very agenda they predicted.

On August 15, 2025, the WEF announced that Fink, who commands over $10.6 trillion in assets through BlackRock, would assume interim leadership alongside André Hoffmann of Roche Holding. The timing was no coincidence. This appointment followed an investigation that cleared WEF founder Klaus Schwab of “material wrongdoing” after anonymous whistle-blowers alleged financial misconduct and inappropriate behaviour. Schwab, the 87-year-old architect of stakeholder capitalism, had resigned abruptly in April 2025 amid mounting scandals.

What the corporate media portrayed as a simple succession story conceals a far more sinister reality: the world’s largest asset manager has now captured the organization that sets global economic policy, creating an unprecedented concentration of power that threatens democratic governance and free market capitalism.
