Bank of America cuts target for Brookfield Asset Management stock

Brookfield Asset Management (CA1130041058) was trading at EUR 39.76 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 4:01 p.m. CEST, up 1.25 percent versus the prior close of EUR 39.27. Bank of America Securities cut its price target from USD 61.00 to USD 60.00 on October 5, 2026, while maintaining a Hold rating, according to Markets Insider.

Three events reshape the picture

On September 28, 2026, Brookfield disclosed a presentation change for fee revenues and fee-bearing capital ahead of its third-quarter reporting, with the revised materials covering the quarter ended June 30, 2026 and the prior seven quarters, according to the SEC filing. On October 1, 2026, Brookfield announced the final close of Oaktree's Asset-Backed Finance Fund with USD 2.00 billion of commitments, as reported by FinanzNachrichten. On October 5, 2026, Bank of America reduced its target from USD 61.00 to USD 60.00 while keeping its Hold rating.

What does the fee base show?

Business Quant reported revenue of USD 1.753 billion for the second quarter of 2026, up 60.80 percent from the same period a year earlier, alongside net income of USD 1.172 billion, according to Business Quant. The comparison matters because the latest quarter combines stronger reported revenue with a rating action that leaves the USD 60.00 target below the USD 61.00 level set before the October 5 note.

Brookfield's operating model remains centered on fee-generating capital across infrastructure, energy, private equity, real estate and credit. Its investor-relations homepage describes more than USD 1 trillion of assets under management and USD 614 billion of fee-bearing capital, while the SEC filing says the presentation change does not alter previously reported Fee-Related Earnings or Distributable Earnings.

When are the next results due?

The next reporting date identified in the SEC filing is November 6, 2026, when Brookfield expects to release results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2026. The filing says the revised fee presentation is intended to give analysts and investors more detail on partner-manager revenues and expenses, making the new format an important comparison point for the upcoming report.
