Brookfield Asset Management has successfully closed its inaugural Brookfield Infrastructure Structured Solutions Fund (BISS) at $1 billion, reaching its fundraising target. The fund is designed to provide both structured and common equity investments to support sponsors, developers, and corporations in sectors where Brookfield has established expertise.
Strategic Investments and Market Expansion
BISS has already deployed capital into key investments, including Strategic Venue Partners, a wireless infrastructure platform, and Origis Energy, a U.S.-based renewable energy developer. Brookfield-affiliated entities contributed $150 million to the fund, reinforcing alignment with investors and demonstrating strong institutional confidence in the strategy.
The fund represents a strategic expansion of Brookfield’s infrastructure platform, targeting mid-market opportunities that leverage the firm’s deep industry knowledge and owner-operator experience. The company sees this as a scalable strategy, particularly as demand for infrastructure capital rises amid global trends like decarbonization and digitalization.
Investor Confidence and Future Growth
Ian Simes, Managing Partner and Co-Head of Brookfield’s Infrastructure Debt and Structured Solutions businesses, emphasized strong investor interest in the fund’s approach. His counterpart, Hadley Peer Marshall, noted Brookfield’s ambition to grow BISS to a scale comparable to the firm’s larger infrastructure debt and equity funds.
With this latest fund, Brookfield continues to solidify its position as a leading player in the infrastructure investment space, positioning itself to capitalize on the evolving needs of the global economy.
