"In early 2021, we re-assessed the modern slavery risks in our supply chain which included a review of services and goods being acquired by BlackRock UK. For those goods/services that are at a high(er) risk for modern slavery, including underpayment or exploitation of vulnerable workers, we’ve identified the current suppliers and have asked them to complete a due diligence questionnaire via our ‘Know Your Third Party’ (KY3P) tool A similar due diligence review will be conducted on any new suppliers prior to providing higher risk goods or services, as well as a periodic review on existing suppliers."
