Description:
BlackRock® is a premier provider of global investment management, risk management and advisory services to institutional and retail clients around the world. As of 30 June 2009, BlackRock's assets under management total US$1.37 trillion across equity, fixed income, cash management, alternative investment and real estate strategies. Through BlackRock Solutions® - the natural evolution of our long-standing investment in developing sophisticated and highly integrated systems - we offer risk management, strategic advisory and enterprise investment system services to a broad base of clients with portfolios totaling approximately US$7 trillion as of 30 June 2009. Attracting, motivating and retaining top talent has always been a priority for the firm. BlackRock emphasizes entry-level hiring and is committed to building our firm from within. Given our flat organizational structure, analysts have the opportunity to work closely with seasoned professionals and benefit from their insight and experience. The Green Package is the end result of the daily collection and validation of tens of thousands of pieces of market data (such as end of day prices, index positions, and security indicative information), the creation of complex economic and analytical models, the calculation of millions of risk measures at the security and portfolio level, their aggregation and summarization into thousands of reports – all of which lets portfolio managers know, at a glance, their exposure to changes in the global markets – from the highest to the most detailed level. Our group creates, maintains, and enhances the technical infrastructure to produce the Green Package across all internal and external clients. We design and develop the end-to-end production processes, provide intelligent quality checks on the data, risk analytics and reports, and continually re-engineer and optimize our processes to accommodate BlackRock’s rapid growth.
