The central question, he said, is whether people can see, touch, and build a future on the prosperity created by new technologies.\nDon't Miss:\n\"Accrued to a far narrower share of people than any healthy society can ultimately sustain,\" Fink said, describing how wealth created in the decades following the fall of the Berlin Wall was distributed in advanced economies. Those decades created more wealth than any previous period in human history, but the gains were uneven, he said.\nHe said that this imbalance has contributed to declining trust in institutions. Fink said the forum itself risks being seen as \"out of step with the moment,\" particularly in an age of populism and weakening institutional trust. \nHe questioned whether people outside the room care about what happens at gatherings like Davos.\nTrending: Deloitte's #1 Fastest-Growing Software Company Lets Users Earn Money Just by Scrolling — Accredited Investors Can Still Get In at $0.50/Share.\n\"Early gains are flowing to the owners of models, owners of data, and owners of infrastructure,\" Fink said, adding that AI is already following a familiar pattern and raising the question, \"What happens to everyone else?\"\n\"It is not about the future. The future is now,\" he said, calling for credible plans that allow broader participation in AI-driven gains.\nSee Also: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it?\nFink said at Davos that the real challenge is whether capitalism can evolve to include more people in economic growth rather than leaving them on the sidelines. \"This is going to be the test,\" he said. \"Capitalism can evolve to turn more people into owners of growth instead of spectators watching it happen.\"\nHe said that doing so is difficult in a world shaped by competing ideologies and assumptions about how economic systems should function, but rebuilding trust depends on broader participation.\nOne way to widen that participation, Fink said, is by ensuring long-term savers benefit from AI investment. He said pensions and retirement savings can help connect workers to the growth of AI infrastructure.\n\"We need to make sure that the average pensioner and the average saver is part of that growth,\" he said. \"If they're just watching it from the sidelines, they're going to feel left out.\"\nRead Next: This investment firm leverages expert insights and a 2.40x net equity multiple to help accredited investors capitalize on 2026 multifamily market trends—read the full forecast now.\nImage: Shutterstock\nTo add Benzinga News as your preferred source on Google, click here.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.36.2","shortVersion":"4.36.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2610667034","isCrawlerRequest":true}
