Jio Financial Services Teams Up with BlackRock for 50:50 Joint Venture in Wealth Management

Jio Financial Services Ltd has solidified its partnership with BlackRock Inc and BlackRock Advisors Singapore Pte Ltd, unveiling plans for a 50:50 joint venture aimed at bolstering wealth management activities in India. The agreement, announced in a statement, marks a significant step forward for both companies.

Under the terms of the agreement, the joint venture will focus on a range of wealth management activities, including the establishment of a wealth management company and subsequent formation of a brokerage company in India. This move underscores Jio Financial’s commitment to expanding its presence in the financial services sector and enhancing its offerings to customers.

The announcement comes as part of Jio Financial’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its collaboration with BlackRock Inc.
