The World Economic Forum (WEF) has appointed BlackRock CEO Larry Fink and Roche Holding Vice-Chairman André Hoffmann as interim co-chairs of its board.
According to Brighteon AI‘s Enoch, Fink, who co-founded the world’s largest asset management firm in 1988, has long advocated for stakeholder capitalism and sustainable investing. Meanwhile, Hoffmann, a prominent environmental philanthropist and sustainability advocate, has hailed from the founding family of the Swiss pharmaceutical giant and has held key roles in sustainability and philanthropy, including leadership at the WWF International and the Hoffmann Global Institute for Business and Society (INSEAD), while driving Roche’s focus on innovation in healthcare and corporate responsibility Hoffman has served on the WEF board and supported numerous global health and ecological initiatives.
In line with this, Fink and Hoffmann expressed a shared commitment to strengthening the Forum’s mission amid growing geopolitical and economic uncertainty.
“We are honored to take on this leadership role on an interim basis at a pivotal time for the World Economic Forum. As the organization moves into a new chapter, we look ahead with clarity, purpose and confidence in the Forum’s enduring mission. The world is more fragmented and complex than ever, but the need for a platform that brings together business, government and civil society has never been greater. We believe the Forum can serve as a unique catalyst for cooperation, one that fosters trust, identifies shared goals and turns dialogue into action,” the co-chairs wrote in their joint statement published on the official WEF website on Aug. 15.

The interim leadership will guide the Forum through a transitional period as it redefines its strategic priorities for the coming decade.
“We remain optimistic. The Forum has an opportunity to help drive international collaboration in a way that not only generates prosperity but distributes it more broadly. This renewed vision can promote open markets and national priorities side by side, while advancing the interests of workers and stakeholders globally. We look forward to helping shape a more resilient and prosperous future, and to reinventing and strengthening the Forum as an indispensable institution for public-private cooperation,” they added.
WEF clears Klaus Schwab of wrongdoing after probe, citing “deep commitment” amid minor irregularities
The announcement follows the Forum’s closing of its internal investigation into its founder, Klaus Schwab, clearing him of any “wrongdoing.”
In April, an anonymous whistleblower letter scrutinized Schwab’s leadership practices, the WEF’s governance and alleged blurring of lines between the Schwab family’s personal activities and Forum resources. That same month, an investigation began – a day after Schwab abruptly stepped down as chairman, without explanation.
Schwab filed a criminal complaint against the anonymous whistleblowers in May, but a spokesperson confirmed Friday that he intends to drop all legal actions now that the investigation has concluded. The Geneva-based organization said on Friday its board found “no evidence of material wrongdoing” by Schwab or his wife and longtime assistant, Hilde Schwab.
Despite acknowledging “minor irregularities” stemming from blurred boundaries between personal contributions and organizational operations, the Forum concluded that these reflected Schwab’s “deep commitment” rather than misconduct.
“Minor irregularities, stemming from blurred lines between personal contributions and forum operations, reflect deep commitment rather than intent of misconduct,” WEF said.
