Australia
From real estate to private equity, energy, and infrastructure, we've invested in the assets that form the backbone of Australia's economy since 2007.
Investment highlights in Australia
Brookfield expanded into Australia through the 2007 acquisition of construction firm Multiplex, and the country has played an important role in our business ever since.
Our growth has continued with key transactions including Thakral Holdings (2012), comprising what is now Brookfield Place Sydney, transmission and distribution business AusNet (2021), alternative asset manager La Trobe Financial (2022), and renewables developer Neoen (2025). We continue to invest in assets that form the backbone of Australia’s economy, from data to financial services to logistics.
