Wall Street''s Biggest ESG Preacher Suffers Massive Loss On Russian Exposure BlackRock founder and CEO Larry Fink has never shied away from an opportunity to burnish his reputation with some ESG virtue-signaling, which is what makes this latest news so much more surprising. As it happens, BlackRock''s "Emerging Frontiers" fund has just booked its biggest loss yet after doubling down on Russian assets last month, according to Bloomberg. That''s right, the emerging markets hedge fund run by the world''s largest asset manager (and greatest virtue signaler) has taken a shellacking after its bet with Russia, booking a loss equivalent to 10% of its total AUM. After closing its Russian positions last month (and saving itself from yet more losses), the EM Frontiers fund is now down 7% for the year. The fund was managing some $960 million as of the end of January, and had invested 9% of its money in Russian assets at the peak, making Russia its largest national exposure. *BLACKROCK HEDGE FUND UPPED ITS RUSSIA BET, SUFFERED RECORD LOSS Wait, the ESG preacher blew up on Russia longs? — zerohedge (@zerohedge) March 9, 2022 One senior BlackRock exec tasked with managing the fund said he decided to increase the firm''s exposure after a team trip to Russia back in January.

Chinese Firms Mull Buying Stakes In Russian Energy Giants As it turns out, American megabanks like JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs aren''t the only ones buying up distressed Russian assets. Chinese banks are also getting in on the fun.

The talks are still in an early stage, and it''s unclear whether a deal will result, as the discussions aren’t public .

Rabobank: The Ukraine War Is Still Not Priced In By Michael Every of Rabobank On 25 January in ‘ The Ukraine Metacrisis ’ we argued “Despite the lack of market concern until very recently,…there is a serious risk of a serious war over Ukraine…. we underline this is part of a larger metacrisis that will prompt shifts in the global architecture, creating far greater economic, financial, and geopolitical volatility longer term.” On 7 March, markets finally started to get that message.
