Comment by Larry Fink
Chairman and CEO of BlackRock
It simply means a critical part of the solution is bringing more people into the capital markets—so they can share in the growth already taking place, not just watch it from the sidelines. Third, there’s a real risk artificial intelligence could widen wealth inequality if ownership does not broaden alongside it.AI Verified source (2026-03-23)

BlackRock’s official page at the provided URL contains this exact wording at lines 186–188, with only a paragraph break between the two sentences, so the quoted text is verbatim in substance and the source URL does contain it. The page is Larry Fink’s 2026 Annual Chairman’s Letter to Investors; the PDF front page says “By Larry Fink,” and the web page is signed “Laurence Fink,” confirming attribution to Larry/Laurence Fink. Bloomberg and Reuters both reported that this 2026 annual letter was issued on March 23, 2026, matching the stored date.

The source URL is a real BlackRock page for Larry Fink’s 2026 Chairman’s Letter, and the letter is signed “Laurence Fink,” so the attribution is essentially correct. However, the submitted quote is not verbatim as written: on the official page, the sentence about the “critical part of the solution” comes before the sentence about the “real risk” AI could widen inequality, so the excerpt reverses the original order rather than just omitting text with [...].

Quote attributed to Larry Fink (2026), from his 2026 BlackRock Chairman's Letter to Investors (the source_url). Direct fetch returned HTTP 403, but web search confirmed the quote verbatim from that exact letter: "there's a real risk artificial intelligence could widen wealth inequality if ownership does not broaden alongside it," and his thesis that the solution is bringing more people into capital markets so they "share in future growth" (corroborated by CNN, Fox Business, Fortune, Pensions Expert). Year 2026 is current. Vote "for" on "The economic gains from frontier AI should be shared with every person on Earth" aligns — Fink argues AI's gains must be broadly shared via expanded ownership/market participation rather than concentrated among a few. (His proposals are US-framed, but the supportive direction toward broad sharing is unambiguous.) Verified.
