Company Description
Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc. (NYSE: RA) is a diversified, closed-end management investment company in the finance and insurance sector. It is classified in the investment banking and securities dealing industry and is designed as a fund structure rather than an operating company. The fund’s stated investment objective is to seek a high total return, with a primary focus on high current income and a secondary focus on capital growth.
The fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in the real asset class. According to available information, this real asset focus includes three main categories: Real Estate Securities, Infrastructure Securities, and Natural Resources Securities. This means the portfolio is oriented toward securities that are tied to physical or tangible assets, rather than purely financial or intangible exposures.

The manager’s public description indicates experience with global listed real assets strategies, including real estate equities, infrastructure equities, energy infrastructure equities, multi-strategy real asset approaches, and real asset debt. For RA, the emphasis, as stated, is on generating high current income from real asset-related securities, while also seeking opportunities for capital appreciation over time.
The fund’s distributions, as described in multiple announcements, may consist of net investment income, capital gains and/or return of capital.
