On BlackRock’s Q3 2025 earnings call, CFO Martin Small stated that the firm has been “focused on building capabilities that we anticipate our clients will need in the future while also implementing some of the largest and most multifaceted mandates in our history.” He noted that the iShares franchise crossed $5 trillion in assets during the quarter with record net inflows of $153 billion. Small also said the U.S. needs to “accelerate regulatory clarity and investments in digital assets innovation” and that the country should be “a leader in market infrastructure for much of the larger part of the world of digital assets.” During the call, Small discussed BlackRock’s efforts around tokenization and digitization of assets, saying the firm is “spending a great deal of time on the tech” and believes it can introduce younger investors to traditional assets through tokenized ETFs. He described digital wallets as a way to transform digital liquidity into retirement products, adding that the firm is in “deep conversations” and expects “exciting announcements in the coming years” regarding its role in tokenization.
