Brookfield Oaktree Holdings, LLC

Brookfield Oaktree Holdings, LLC is a U.S.-based holding company whose value is tied to alternative credit, real estate, and equity investments managed through Oaktree Capital I and related Brookfield/Oaktree vehicles. The company earns investment income from its pro-rata share of gains and losses on these holdings rather than from selling products or services in the traditional sense. Its reported results are therefore driven by fund performance, restructuring effects, and the economics of its equity-method investment in Oaktree Capital I. The company also has preferred units listed on the NYSE, with distributions on those units serviced before any distributions to common unitholders. Following the 2024 restructuring, the company no longer indirectly controls Oaktree Capital I, which changed the way its investment economics are reflected in the financial statements.
