Larry Fink, the CEO of BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, also spoke at the conference. He told the audience there was a reasonable chance oil prices would reach $100 a barrel,"Inflation, we are in a new regime," he said."There are many structural reasons for that. Short-term policy related to environmentalism, in terms of restricting the supply of hydrocarbons, has created energy inflation, and we are going to be living with that for some time.
"We're not focusing on long-term solutions. We're not trying to change the world on a granular basis," Fink continued."We have these visions we could go from a brown world, and we could wake up tomorrow there'd be a green world, and that is not going to happen." Subscribe to push notifications
