BROOKFIELD APPOINTS BRUCE FLATT AS CHAIR OF BROOKFIELD ASSET MANAGEMENT
Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. has appointed Bruce Flatt as chair of the board of directors, in addition to his role as chief executive officer. He replaces Mark Carney, who today announced his candidacy for the leadership of the Liberal Party of Canada. Concurrent with the launch of Mr. Carney's campaign, Brookfield has accepted his resignation from the company.
In discussing Mr. Carney's decision, Mr. Flatt said: "Mark has been a tremendous partner to the firm since he joined nearly five years ago, both in his role as chair of Brookfield Asset Management for the past two years and notably in establishing Brookfield as the leading private capital investor in the energy transition. We are sorry to see him leave, but he does so to fulfill his deep sense of public service to Canada and we wish him all the best in his new pursuit."
He continued: "Under Connor Teskey's leadership, our deep bench of experienced investment and operating professionals will continue to steer Brookfield's world-leading transition investing activities. We are proud to have been named the world's largest impact investor for two years running, thanks to more than $30-billion of dedicated transition capital raised in less than four years."
