Follow along here for updates on what people are saying.
Davos kicked off on Monday with a warning from Larry Fink about capitalism
Fink took the stage at Davos to welcome more than a thousand chief executives to the World Economic Forum. In his opening remarks, he questioned whether anyone outside the room would care about this meeting of global leaders.
“Because if we’re being honest, for many people this meeting feels out of step with the moment: elites in an age of populism, an established institution in an era of deep institutional distrust,” the BlackRock CEO said.
“And there’s truth in that critique,” he added. “I’ve believed in this forum for a long time. I certainly wouldn’t be leading it if I didn’t. But it’s also obvious that the world now places far less trust in us to help shape what comes next.”
Fink’s remarks ground what is expected to be a monumental week, in which deals are made and new alliances are forged amid turmoil in the wider political sphere.
