Brookfield Corporation completed its acquisition of Oaktree on August 3, 2026, fully integrating the premier credit manager into its platform following a partnership initiated in 2019. The transaction strengthens Brookfield's $365 billion global credit platform by combining Oaktree’s cycle-tested expertise with Brookfield’s scale. Howard Marks and Bruce Karsh will serve as Co-Chairs of Oaktree while retaining their respective roles at Brookfield. This acquisition positions the U.S. as Brookfield Asset Management’s largest market, accounting for over 60% of its employee base and nearly half of its revenue, while expanding its global reach to 18 countries. Brookfield Corporation is a leading global investment firm managing more than $1 trillion in assets across infrastructure, energy, private equity, real estate, and credit.
