"We need confidence back," BlackRock [profile] chief executive Larry Fink told the the Globe and Mail in a recent hard-hitting interview.

Some of the probing questions asked by the paper include:

--BlackRock is huge. Are you getting opportunities that individual investors are not?
--You took on a lot of toxic assets for the U.S. government during the financial crisis. How have you done with them?
--What were the biggest lessons investors should have learned from the financial crisis?
--What’s holding back a recovery?
--A recent news story said that U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner speaks with you on the telephone more than any other banker or executive. Can you say what you guys talk about?
--Is there anything that keeps you awake at night?

His answers can be found in the Globe and Mail article.
