Nov 6, 2026 14:07 ET · 57m ago

TREE NEWS reports: Brookfield Asset Management raised $25 billion in the third quarter, driven mainly by its credit and infrastructure businesses, as the asset manager positions itself as a key financier of AI infrastructure. Distributable earnings rose 15% to $763 million, or 47 cents per share, while fee-bearing capital climbed 13% year on year to $682 billion. The firm has agreed to co-develop and operate a data center in the UK and plans to invest up to $9 billion with Nvidia and Naver in AI computing infrastructure in South Korea.

AI take

Brookfield's fundraising mix is the real signal: capital is flowing into credit and infrastructure, the exact channels that turn AI ambitions into buildable assets, rather than into higher-beta strategies. The UK data center and South Korea commitment show the firm is moving from financier to co-developer, deepening its exposure beyond fee income. For the private-credit and infrastructure complex, this reinforces a shift toward AI compute as a core asset class. The open question is whether fundraising momentum holds as these projects move from announcement to construction and drawdown.
