This Investment Playlist follows a thematic approach, aiming to deliver returns from long-term trends identified by BlackRock, set to transform the global economy, businesses, and societies. These include technological breakthroughs, demographic and social change, rapid urbanisation, climate change and resource scarcity, and emerging global economies.
