Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P.









Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. operates high quality, long-life assets that generate stable cash flows, require relatively minimal maintenance capital expenditures and, by virtue of barriers to entry and other characteristics, tend to appreciate in value over time.

Our current business consists of the ownership and operation of premier utilities, fee for service, and timber assets in North and South America, Australasia, and Europe. Brookfield Infrastructure also seeks acquisition opportunities in other infrastructure sectors with similar attributes.

We define infrastructure assets as long-life, physical assets that are the backbone for the provision of essential products or services for the global economy. Due to their nature, infrastructure assets are critical to support sustainable economic development.

Infrastructure assets are typically characterized by some or all of the following attributes:

* strong competitive positions with high barriers to entry;
* high margins and stable cash flow; and,
* upside from economic growth and/or inflation.

Examples of infrastructure assets include the following:

* Energy. Energy infrastructure includes the networks that provide basic services such as gas and electricity.
* Transportation. Transportation infrastructure supports the transport of passengers or cargo via air, land or sea and includes infrastructure such as toll roads, bridges, tunnels, airports, ports, railway lines, urban rail, ferries and other transport-related facilities.
* Timber. Timber is a vital component of the global economy, and is used to produce lumber, paper and other wood products.
* Other. Other infrastructure includes social infrastructure (such as health, justice, and education), industrial infrastructure, desalination plants.

Our portfolio of infrastructure assets are primarily in the energy, transportation and timber sectors, as well as social infrastructure, located in North and South America, Europe, Australasia and China.
