About this role

Overview of FMA

FMA provides a differentiated range of advisory services, leveraging BlackRock's Aladdin platform and the firm's sophisticated capital markets, data and analytics, technology, and financial modeling capabilities while maintaining information barriers.

FMA was founded in 2008 in response to the unprecedented challenges governments, financial institutions, and central banks faced as they confronted the financial crisis. They sought an impartial expert with the expertise and technology to help address some of their most difficult and challenging problems, from analyzing and unwinding complex asset portfolios to helping reassess central bank balance sheets. To meet that need, BlackRock established Financial Markets Advisory as a separate and independent business from BlackRock's traditional asset management business.

FMA advises financial institutions, regulators, and government entities on their most critical financial issues. Example areas of support include bank stress-testing, unwinding asset portfolios, designing and implementing bond purchase programs to support to the economy, and climate risk analytics and advisory.

We work with senior management at these organizations, with a focus on balance sheet, capital markets, and sustainability considerations as well as a wide range of other strategic, regulatory, and operational challenges.

Since our founding, we have completed over 500 assignments for more than 280 unique clients in 37 countries. Our professionals work out of all three BlackRock regions (Americas, EMEA, APAC), allowing FMA to serve clients in all locations and time zones and respond to urgent needs as they arise. For assignments demanding cross-disciplinary expertise, we unite professionals from multiple offices to deliver the most effective team for any client situation.
