Operating Highlights
We raised $71 billion over the last twelve months, with
- We raised a collective
$4.3 billion of capital between our two largest infrastructure funds. In the fifth vintage of our flagship infrastructure fund, we raised$3.0 billion of capital, growing the fund to over$27 billion , and expect to hold a final close by the end of the year. Subsequent to quarter end, we held a final close for our third infrastructure debt fund of$1.3 billion of capital, making this vintage more than double the size of its predecessor fund with over$6.0 billion of capital commitments. - We raised
$11.0 billion across Oaktree funds, including$3.2 billion for our twelfth opportunistic credit fund and$2.3 billion for our strategic lending partners fund. - We held a final close of
$715 million for the sixth vintage of our flagship private equity strategy during the quarter, which, at$12 billion , makes this the largest private equity strategy we have ever raised.
Fee-bearing capital was
- The above year-over-year increase in fee-bearing capital contributed to growth in fee-related earnings to
$2.2 billion over the last twelve months, representing a 13% increase over the prior year period, excluding performance fees.
In the third quarter, we deployed
- From our infrastructure flagship, we deployed
$4.7 billion of capital, including$1.4 billion of co-invest capital, towards the acquisition of Triton International, announced in April of this year. Triton is the world’s largest lessor of intermodal shipping containers and this transaction expands the build out of our international logistics and supply chain operations capabilities. - Also from our infrastructure flagship, we deployed
$2.5 billion to fund the acquisition of Data4. This acquisition is Brookfield’s first major entry into the European data center market and is an important part of our goal of owning and operating one of the largest hyperscale data center platforms in the world. - Across Oaktree funds, we deployed
$6.5 billion of capital, including$1.9 billion deployed out of the eleventh vintage of our opportunistic credit fund, approximately$660 million out of the twelfth vintage of our opportunistic credit fund, and approximately$660 million out of our Sponsor Fund Credit business. Credit opportunities will only get better heading into 2024.
As of
- Uncalled fund commitments include $45 billion which is not currently earning fees, but that will earn approximately $450 million of fees annually once deployed.
- We hold close to
$3 .0 billion of cash and equivalents on our balance sheet.
