"Brookfield Asset Management delivered record Q4 results with over $135B raised in 2024, driving an 18% increase in fee-bearing capital and a 15% dividend hike amidst secular tailwinds in AI, clean energy, and private credit."
Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) delivered a strong performance in 2024, raising over $135 billion in capital (including a record $29 billion in Q4) and growing fee-bearing capital to $539 billion (an 18% increase). Q4 fee-related earnings rose 17% to $677 million, and distributable earnings increased 11% to $649 million, prompting a 15% dividend increase to $1.75 per share annually. Growth was heavily driven by structural tailwinds in AI, clean energy transition, and private credit, which now represents BAM's largest asset class under management. BAM completed transactions to acquire 100% of its asset management business and relocated its headquarters to the U.S., paving the way for broader index inclusion.
