Brookfield targets $100bn AUM in India as part of global expansion strategy

Brookfield Asset Management is aiming to more than triple its assets under management in India to $100bn within the next five years, as part of a broader strategy to double its global AUM from the current $1tn.

Connor Teskey, President at Brookfield, said the firm sees India as one of its highest-growth markets. Brookfield currently manages $30bn across Indian infrastructure, real estate, renewable power, and private equity. The firm expects significant capital deployment through both organic expansion and strategic M&A.

“It’s reasonable in our minds to suggest that in that same five-year time frame, we would more than triple our business here,” Teskey said, expressing confidence in India’s long-term economic fundamentals, even in a lower GDP growth scenario.

Brookfield will continue to focus heavily on infrastructure – including transport, digital assets, and renewables – leveraging India’s drive to modernise and decarbonise. The firm currently manages $12bn each in real estate and infrastructure, $3bn in renewable power and transmission, and $3.6bn in private equity and special investments.

Brookfield’s investment philosophy globally remains anchored in what it calls the “three Ds”: decarbonisation, digitalisation, and deglobalisation—trends it views as critical for value creation across its portfolio. India, with its resilient supply chain ambitions and policy reforms, is expected to remain a key beneficiary of this thematic approach.

The firm also signalled continued discipline on valuations, and confidence in India’s policy stability and growth potential. While the Indian carried interest market has faced headwinds globally, Brookfield remains optimistic about deal activity and long-term opportunities in the region.
