BlackRock’s iShares range of over 1600 ETFs have surpassed $5 trillion in global assets under management.

The milestone follows a record-breaking first half in iShares ETF inflows ($192 billion) and is powered by growth across multiple high-conviction areas:

-Fixed Income ETFs: The iShares bond franchise has over $1 trillion in AUM globally, with approximately 40% market share, as investors increasingly turn to ETFs to navigate today’s fixed income markets.

-Digital Asset ETPs: Over $100 billion in combined AUM, led by flagship products like IBIT and ETHA, which rank among the top five fastest-growing ETPs in industry history.

-A-ctive ETFs: iShares manages over $78 billion across more than 100 active ETFs globally, reflecting strong investor demand for alpha and targeted outcomes.

-European iShares crossed $1 trillion in AUM in April 2025 – serving all kinds of clients from individual investors to pension funds

Stephen Cohen, Chief Product Officer and Global Head of iShares at BlackRock, said: “Crossing $5 trillion in iShares AUM is a defining moment for investors and for the industry. ETFs have become the technology of choice to access markets, build better portfolios, and manage risk with transparency and scale.

“We believe that indexing will continue to be the predominant growth driver for ETFs, but innovation is opening new frontiers—from more granular indices, to fixed income, active, and digital strategies—and we believe this is just the beginning. Today, ETFs represent just 6% of the global capital markets. We believe the ETF industry will nearly double, from $15 trillion to $27 trillion, in the next five years.”
