    BLACKROCK, the world's biggest asset manager, made its first push into Europe's "robo-advice" market on Tuesday after taking a stake in Anglo-German digital investment manager Scalable Capital.

    BlackRock, which manages US$5.4 trillion across a range of actively managed and index-tracking funds, led a 30 million euro (S$46 million) funding round for Scalable alongside its two existing German venture capital backers, a joint statement said.
