March 27 (Reuters) - BlackRock ‌CEO Larry ​Fink's ​2025 compensation rose to $37.7 million, a proxy filing from the asset manager ‌showed on Friday, following a banner year ⁠for the world's largest asset manager.

The pay package included ‌a $1.5 million base salary ‌and a bonus of $10.6 million, the filing showed. Fink's pay package in 2024 was $30.8 ​million. The increase was boosted by a $6.5 million rise in stock awards granted to ⁠Fink.

"We're entering 2026 with elevated momentum and we're positioned ahead ​of significant future opportunities," Fink said in a letter to investors.

Proxy adviser Institutional ​Shareholder Services last year ‌recommended investors to oppose the pay packages of top executives at the ⁠firm, including Fink, after which BlackRock said it had received 67% of votes cast in support ⁠of its executive pay.

BlackRock said in January its assets ​under management had risen to a record $14 trillion.

The asset manager blew past Wall Street profit estimates in the ‌fourth quarter of 2025, raking in a net profit of $2.18 billion excluding ‌some one-time charges. Its shares rose 4.5% ⁠in 2025 but ‌have fallen over ​12% so far this year.
