JioBlackRock Investment Advisers, a 50:50 joint venture between Jio Financial Services Limited and BlackRock Inc., has launched its official website and initiated an early access registration campaign ahead of the full commercial rollout of its investment advisory business.
The website allows users to access educational content and register for updates related to upcoming product launches and services. The company has also disclosed details of its executive leadership team, led by Chief Executive Officer Marc Pilgrem, who assumed the role in June 2025.
The development follows the launch of JioBlackRock’s asset management arm earlier this year. The asset management business has so far introduced 10 investment products, which the company said received strong investor participation. The advisory business is expected to complement this platform as part of JioBlackRock’s broader investment management strategy.
JioBlackRock Investment Advisers aims to offer investment advisory services to individual investors using a digital-first approach. The company plans to combine BlackRock’s global investment capabilities and its Aladdin investment technology platform with Jio Financial Services’ digital distribution reach.
Commenting on the development, Hitesh Sethia, Chief Executive Officer of Jio Financial Services, said the advisory business is a key component of the joint venture’s integrated investment strategy, following the rollout of its asset management operations.
Rachel Lord, Head of International at BlackRock, said the advisory platform is intended to make personalised investment advice more accessible by leveraging technology and investment solutions developed by the global asset manager.
Marc Pilgrem said the advisory service is being designed to provide broader access to institutional-grade investment opportunities through digital tools, with a focus on affordability and accessibility.
Separately, the company has established its presence across social media platforms including LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and X, as part of efforts to increase awareness of its advisory offering.
JioBlackRock Investment Advisers has not announced a timeline for the full commercial launch of its advisory services.
