Jad Ellawn, head of its Middle East practice, said its new Doha office will bring it closer to clients, including the Qatar Investment Authority, which has a US$20-billion partnership with Brookfield through its artificial intelligence subsidiary, Qai. (The Logic)
Talking point: Brookfield is trying to market itself as a co-investor for more pensions and sovereign wealth funds—including the QIA and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board. Rivals like BlackRock’s Global Infrastructure Partners have also announced plans to expand in Doha over the past two years, and Ellawn announced the new office alongside an executive from Goldman Sachs’ private credit division at a UN Trade and Development conference. While some investors have shied away from private credit this year, Ellawn said that its private credit business, Oaktree, will be anchoring the new office, noting that Qatar is a “key investment market.”
