Join us for a fireside chat with Tom Wojcik, Managing Director and the Head of Investor Relations and Corporate Development at BlackRock, Inc. Tom will discuss the evolving roles of passive and active products within the investment management landscape. With $6.3 trillion in assets under management, including $1.7 trillion in ETF products, BlackRock is the world’s largest asset manager with strong franchises in both passive and active products and relationships with retail and institutional investors globally. Investors are increasingly using ETFs in new ways to gain exposure, hedge risk, create liquidity, and lower costs, creating challenges and opportunities for traditional asset managers.

The event kicks off the activities of the Wharton Asset Management Network.

Mr. Tom Wojcik is the Global Head of Investor Relations & Corporate Development and Head of Americas Strategy at BlackRock since 2013. He joined the Firm in 2012 as Head of Retail and iShares Business Finance. Prior to joining Blackrock, Mr. Wojcik served as an analyst at Hunter Global Investors and at Durham Asset Management. His experience also includes working for Nautic Partners and Merril Lynch. Mr. Wojcik holds an MBA from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania (Class of 2008), and a Bachelor degree from Duke University.
