Brookfield Asset Management says it is opening an office in Doha, aiming to deepen its presence across the Middle East and expand its Gulf operations. Multiple outlets report that the new office supports Brookfield’s broader investment activity in Qatar and the region.
The Economic Times adds that the Doha office is anchored by Brookfield’s global credit platform, including Oaktree, and links this to private credit’s role in financing Gulf economies. It also says Brookfield is seeking closer access to Qatar’s sovereign wealth funds and institutional investors, and mentions a $20 billion AI infrastructure investment programme involving a QIA-backed AI company, Qai.
Bloomberg frames the move more generally as strengthening Brookfield’s reach in a region shaped by broader economic pressures related to the war. Investing.com highlights the office opening in its headline but provides no additional details in the material provided. Overall, the reports broadly agree on the office expansion and its purpose, while differing on the depth of specific strategy and regional context.
