Controversy level
- BlackRock Inc has faced sustained anti-ESG backlash from US Republican-led state treasurers including the August 2022 Texas Comptroller divestment list inclusion (Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Missouri, South Carolina, West Virginia state treasurers divested USD 5+ billion of BlackRock-managed mandates over alleged 'fossil fuel boycott'), plus the contested January 2025 BlackRock withdrawal from the Net Zero Asset Managers (NZAM) initiative.
