BlackRock boss working on $800 billion plan for Ukraine’s economy – Witkoff | 23 Jan 2026 | BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has joined U.S. President Donald Trump’s Ukraine team as a “prosperity adviser,” U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff has announced. Speaking at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos on Thursday, Witkoff described Fink as “the best-in-class prosperity adviser,” adding that he “was good enough to volunteer for the job.” Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky has spoken repeatedly about developing a “prosperity plan,” aimed at attracting $800 billion in foreign investment to Ukraine after a peace agreement with Russia is reached. While Ukrainian officials met with BlackRock executives to discuss this plan last month, it was unclear from reports about the closed-door meeting what level of involvement the firm would take in implementing it.
