Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, with respect to BlackRock’s future financial or business performance, strategies or expectations.  Forward-
looking
statements
are
typically
identified
by
words
or
phrases
such
as
“trend,”
“potential,”
“opportunity,”
“pipeline,”
“believe,”
“comfortable,”
“expect,”
“anticipate,”
“current,”
“intention,”
“estimate,”
“position,”

and similar expressions.
BlackRock cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time.  Forward-
looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and BlackRock assumes no duty to and does not undertake to update forward-looking
statements.  Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements and future results could differ materially from
historical performance.
In addition to risk factors previously disclosed in BlackRock’s Securities and Exchange Commission reports and those identified elsewhere in this
presentation, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or historical performance:
(1)
the
introduction,
withdrawal,
success
and
timing
of
business
initiatives
and
strategies;
(2)
changes
and
volatility
in
political,
economic
or
industry
conditions, the interest rate environment, foreign exchange rates or financial and capital markets, which could result in changes in demand for products or
services
or
in
the
value
of
assets
under
management;
(3)
the
relative
and
absolute
investment
performance
of
BlackRock’s
investment
products;
(4)
the
impact of increased competition; (5)
the impact of future acquisitions or divestitures; (6)
the unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings; (7)
the extent and
timing of any share repurchases; (8)
the impact, extent and timing of technological changes and the adequacy of intellectual property, information and
cyber security protection; (9)
the impact of legislative and regulatory actions and reforms, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act, and regulatory, supervisory or enforcement actions of government agencies relating to BlackRock or The PNC Financial Services Group,
Inc.; (10)
terrorist activities, international hostilities and natural disasters, which may adversely affect the general economy, domestic and local financial
and
capital
markets,
specific
industries
or
BlackRock;
(11)
the
ability
to
attract
and
retain
highly
talented
professionals;
(12)
fluctuations
in
the
carrying
value of BlackRock’s economic investments; (13)
the impact of changes to tax legislation, including income, payroll and transaction taxes, and taxation on
products
or
transactions,
which
could
affect
the
value
proposition
to
clients
and,
generally,
the
tax
position
of
BlackRock;
(14)
BlackRock’s
success
in
maintaining
the
distribution
of
its
products;
(15)
the
impact
of
BlackRock
electing
to
provide
support
to
its
products
from
time
to
time
and
any
potential
liabilities
related
to
securities
lending
or
other
indemnification
obligations;
and
(16)
the
impact
of
problems
at
other
financial
institutions
or
the
failure
or
negative performance of products at other financial institutions.
