Description: BBU Brookfield Business Partners January 13, 2026

Brookfield Business Partners L.P. (BBU) is a Bermuda-incorporated private-equity platform that targets majority-controlled investments in growth-oriented businesses across business services, infrastructure, construction, energy, and industrial sectors worldwide, aiming for 15%-20% internal rates of return. Founded in 2016 as a subsidiary of Brookfield Corporation, the firm typically provides growth capital, facilitates divestitures, and executes acquisitions, favoring global exposure and controlling stakes.

As of the latest filing, BBU reported a portfolio EBITDA of roughly $2.3 billion and a dividend yield near 5%, reflecting its cash-generating assets in fee-based infrastructure and long-term contracts. The construction and engineering segment is sensitive to global capex cycles, with U.S. and European infrastructure spending projected to grow 3-4% annually through 2028, supporting BBU’s pipeline. Additionally, the firm’s exposure to renewable-energy assets aligns with the sector’s 10%-12% annual capacity-addition rate, offering a hedge against fossil-fuel volatility.
