In a strategic move that underscores its dominance in the global infrastructure sector, Brookfield Asset Management has officially closed its inaugural middle-market infrastructure fund, securing a hefty $1 billion in capital commitments. The fund, named Brookfield Infrastructure Structured Solutions Fund, aims to inject capital into infrastructure sponsors, developers, and corporations navigating the shifting landscapes of decarbonization, digitalization, and deglobalization.
A Hybrid Approach to Infrastructure Investing
Brookfield’s new strategy blends infrastructure debt with equity investments, leveraging its expertise as one of the world’s largest fund managers in both sectors.
“Demand for infrastructure investment continues to grow, driven by key trends reshaping the global economy,” said Hadley Peer Marshall, managing partner and co-head of Brookfield’s infrastructure debt and structured solutions business. “This fund allows us to harness our deep knowledge and capital strength to meet that demand.”
By utilizing both structured and common equity, Brookfield aims to target sectors where it already boasts strong asset expertise. The firm plans to tap into its direct investment capabilities to source exclusive deals and capitalize on differentiated opportunities.
