Brookfield exists to build long-term wealth for institutions and individuals by investing in the essential assets that form the backbone of the global economy. With over $1 trillion in assets under management and operations spanning 50+ countries, we bring an owner-operator mindset to everything we do - applying hands-on operational expertise to scale the businesses we own. From infrastructure and renewable power to private equity and real estate, we focus on long-life, high-quality assets that generate enduring value.
Our origins trace back to 1899 and the founding of the São Paulo Tramway, Light and Power Company in Brazil. More than a century later, we've grown into one of the world's leading alternative investment firms with 4,400+ professionals and ~250,000 operating employees worldwide. We partner with sovereign wealth funds, pensions, insurance companies, family offices, and individuals to deliver strong, stable returns through market cycles. The Brookfield Ecosystem - the collective intelligence from our global operations - gives us a competitive edge in identifying opportunities and creating lasting value.
