Former BlackRock ETF Executive to Further Expand TCW's Rapidly Growing ETF Offerings
LOS ANGELES, May 19, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The TCW Group, a leading global asset manager, today announced that it has named Scott Dennis as the firm's Head of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). In this role, he will oversee ETF Capital Markets across asset classes as well as TCW's ETF strategy and business execution. He is based in the firm's Boston office and reports to Jennifer Grancio, Global Head of Distribution.
Dennis' appointment comes as TCW has seen significant growth in both the number of ETFs it offers and assets. Since entering the ETF business in 2023, TCW's offerings have rapidly grown to six fixed-income and five equity ETFs, with assets above $3 billion. TCW's flagship fixed income ETF, the TCW Flexible Income ETF (FLXR), has seen its assets triple in the past year to more than $1 billion and is now the fifth-largest ETF in its category.
"More and more investors and financial advisors are looking to TCW to provide a diversity of ETFs that offer active management, intraday liquidity, and tax efficiency," said Grancio. "As we plan an expansion of our platform in the coming year and beyond, Scott will be an integral leader as we take our ETF offerings into an exciting new stage of growth to meet this tremendous investor demand."
Dennis joins TCW after 16 years at BlackRock in its iShares business, where he was a core member of the team that built its over $1 trillion fixed income ETF platform, focusing on ETF capital markets, distribution, and trading strategy. Most recently, he led the iShares Insurance Solutions Business, where he was responsible for growing ETF usage on insurance general account balance sheets as well as overseeing the accounting and regulatory initiatives for ETF usage across the insurance industry. During his tenure at BlackRock, he held several leadership positions in the iShares business as the Head of Wealth Capital Markets, iShares Markets Coverage and iShares Fixed Income Capital Markets.
Prior to BlackRock, Dennis worked at Morgan Stanley in fixed income institutional sales and trading and Bloomberg's trading systems group. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree from Lafayette College.
"TCW has emerged as one of the most exciting and innovative ETF issuers over the past few years, building on its 50-plus year heritage as a trusted asset manager," Dennis said. "I look forward to contributing to this team as we build on these recent successes by offering more active investment opportunities and grow assets."

Investors Revive Interest in CK Hutchison Despite Deal Delay

Investors are regaining enthusiasm for CK Hutchison Holdings Ltd. despite a delay in the company's plan to sell 43 ports, with optimism fueled by news that a Chinese shipping behemoth is finding its way into the global deal. Shares of CK Hutchison, which oscillated between gains and losses since the company first announced the deal on March 4, reached its highest this year on Friday after state-owned China Cosco Shipping Corp. emerged as a potential new member of the buyer consortium that includes American asset manager BlackRock Inc.

BlackRock, Inc. (BLK)'s Gonna Win Big In Stablecoins, Says Jim Cramer

We recently published . BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:BLK) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:BLK) is one of the biggest asset managers in the world. The resurgence in market activity following record-high interest rates has suited the firm as its shares have gained 10.8% year-to-date. However, BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:BLK)'s journey in the stock market in 2025 has been far from perfect. For instance, the shares dipped by 5.9% in July after the firm's latest earnings report revealed that it had experienced a 9.8% net long-term inflow drop due to an Asian client's withdrawal. As for Cramer, he believes BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:BLK)'s $12 trillion in assets under management provide it with an advantage in the budding stablecoin market: 'Well we'll see what Larry Fink does. Larry Fink is watching all of these things. Larry Fink is gonna be the winner in this because he's got the 12 trillion. He's got a lot of trillions under management.' The CNBC TV host discussed BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:BLK) in detail recently. Here's what he said: 'Oh, then BlackRock comes out. Now I've championed BlackRock since $600, but it's what have you done for me lately game. I hear it was at $1,111. I look at the headlines, and they seem solid, but there's a seemingly disappointing line about inflows… When I saw the stock up 20, I knew whoever was excited about how BlackRock beat the quarter was a dead man walking. Why? Well, because this is an inflow story, and those moronic quick draws would lose money, but I had no idea they'd lose almost 90 points. Pixabay/Public Domain Now I'm quite confident that both stocks are going higher eventually, but now they have to shake out all the weak hands before that happens, and that takes time. You have to build a whole new shareholder base. The companies might help. They might come on and tell us where the sellers were wrong… But in earnings season, there's no such thing as do-overs. The fact is that if BlackRock or Wells Fargo had reported quarters that were in keeping with what was expected, they wouldn't necessarily be higher today, but they certainly wouldn't have ruined earnings season for me.' While we acknowledge the potential of BLK as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
