179: Unlocking Global Real Estate Opportunities: Perspectives on Risks & Returns (With Brian Kingston, CEO of Brookfield Real Estate)

Economist John Stuart Mill observed that “landlords grow rich in their sleep". Yet, as evidenced by the failure over the years of many real estate businesses, success is also highly dependent on entry price, debt levels and execution.
Brookfield, based in Toronto, has developed over 120 years into one of the world’s largest alternative investment management companies, with over $1 trillion of assets under management.
It is also one of the world’s largest real estate operators, and in this conversation, Brian starts by tackling the questions of “how you buy well” and “what goes wrong”?
He then discusses the most significant geographical opportunities, from hospitality in Spain to student accommodation in the UK.
He elaborates on the themes that unify the world of real estate, the blurring of lines between real estate and infrastructure and the “chronic shortage of housing” that is common to the US, Australia, the UK and Korea.
