Brookfield Corporation is a global investment holding company that owns and operates real assets — infrastructure, renewable power, real estate, and industrial businesses — while also managing those assets on behalf of third-party investors. Brookfield operates through three interconnected pillars. First, its asset management business (Brookfield Asset Management, ~73% owned) manages over $1 trillion in AUM and $603B in fee-bearing capital, earning base management fees and carried interest from long-duration private funds across infrastructure, renewables, real estate, private equity, and credit. Second, its wealth solutions business (Brookfield Wealth Solutions) is an insurance platform with $140B+ in insurance assets that collects long-duration liabilities via annuities and pension risk transfers, then invests those assets — including a significant allocation into Brookfield-managed real asset strategies — at a higher yield to generate spread income. Third, Brookfield directly owns stakes in publicly listed operating businesses spanning renewable power (~49 GW of capacity), infrastructure (utilities, transport, data), private equity (industrial and business services), and real estate (office, retail, multifamily). Cash flows from all three pillars flow to the parent, which redeploys capital through share repurchases, dividends, fund commitments, and acquisitions. Brookfield is currently focused on three growth themes: AI infrastructure, energy transition, and retirement savings — the latter driving global expansion of its insurance business, including a planned acquisition of Just Group in the U.K.
