Note: Refers to investments where Brookfield has control or significant influence. We may refer to the term "material" and define it as potentially having a direct, substantial impact on the ability to create or preserve economic, environmental and/or social value for our businesses and their stakeholders. The word "material" should not be equated to or taken as a representation concerning "materiality" of any particular sustainability factor under U.S. federal securities laws or any similar legal or regulatory regime globally.

Sustainability highlights
We provide tools and resources to our teams and portfolio companies
Our Achieving Net Zero Framework provides a structured approach to assessing and progressing our investments based on their specific circumstances, recognizing that the pace and decarbonization pathway will vary by sector, geography and technology availability. We plotted our Operationally Managed AUM1 across this Framework for the third year and continue to see positive movement.
We’re committed to responsible investing over the long-term
We are committed to upholding sustainability governance within our organization. We periodically review and update sustainability-related policies and provide training resources to employees.
We report on GHG emissions across approximately 80% of our invested AUM
We have measured emissions across our business for several years and as of December 31, 2025, over three quarters of our assets under management2 reported on their GHG scope 1 and 2 emissions.
Our measurement and disclosure are informed by the GHG Protocol and Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) Standards.
We believe in facilitating a balanced transition
We work with our portfolio companies to identify and implement operational value-enhancement and decarbonization initiatives, including energy efficiency and electrification measures. In doing so, we are supporting our portfolio companies in maximizing their value, while also working towards their decarbonization potential and contributing to a future lower-emissions economy.
We have also committed or deployed $49 billion toward investments aimed at supporting the global transition to lower-carbon energy systems.
1 Operationally Managed Investments represent investments where we may be able to broadly influence and control decarbonization outcomes through a range of factors, such as governance rights and economic interest. Also included in this category are investments that have a transition mandate and investments where we have more direct access to collaborate with the portfolio company and other significant owners of the business. Investors should refer to the applicable private placement memorandum or product disclosure documents for any fund-specific sustainability objectives or related representations, which may differ from or supplement the firm-level approach described herein.
2 Assets under management adjusted to exclude uninvested capital, cash and cash equivalents, and investments where emissions would otherwise be double-counted.
