Brookfield's Acquisition Plans: Brookfield is in advanced talks to acquire the remaining 26% stake in Oaktree Capital Management for approximately $3 billion, which would value Oaktree at around $11.5 billion. This acquisition is expected to enhance Brookfield's earnings and strengthen its position in the U.S. market.
Strategic Evolution: This move marks a significant step in Brookfield's transition from a real-asset firm to a comprehensive alternatives powerhouse, following its initial $4.7 billion investment in Oaktree. The integration will also align leadership, with Oaktree's co-founders remaining influential in Brookfield's operations.
