Career

Flatt's Brookfield career began in 1990. He became Brookfield’s CEO in 2002. The previous 1996 property-company CEO date is not retained without a contemporaneous appointment record. Brookfield describes its global business as spanning alternative asset management, wealth solutions, and operating companies. Flatt also served as CEO of Brookfield Asset Management from its formation as a separately listed company until Teskey's appointment in 2026, and now chairs its board.

Investment Approach

In shareholder letters, Flatt has described Brookfield's approach as investing in high-quality assets that generate durable cash flow while protecting downside. The platform covers real estate, infrastructure, renewable power, private equity, and credit. His long tenure has made him a central public voice on how Brookfield allocates capital across these businesses; individual investments should be attributed to the relevant teams and operating companies where the source identifies them.

Leadership Transition

Brookfield announced Teskey's appointment as CEO of Brookfield Asset Management after a four-year transition process. Flatt said he would remain CEO of Brookfield Corporation and chair the asset manager's board. The roles belong to separate public companies within the broader Brookfield group.
