Brookfield Asset Management Inc. CEO Bruce Flatt said it was a "very good time" to sell assets after a slow period at the height of the coronavirus outbreak last year.
Flatt said on Tuesday that the alternative asset manager sold assets in the first and second quarters of this year and will continue to sell this year.
"it's not that we think it's the only thing to do, because we buy a lot of things," Flatt said. For six to nine months, he said, few assets were sold, and now there are opportunities in infrastructure, renewable energy, private equity and real estate.
The situation is returning to "the way it used to be," he said, as people began to return to their offices and businesses returned to normal.
