Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund offers high current income and some capital growth, investing mainly in global infrastructure and real estate fixed-income securities. RA experienced a significant price drop in 2023 due to a distribution cut but has since recovered somewhat. Despite a high expense ratio, RA's high monthly distributions and decent trading liquidity make it an attractive high-income play, especially post-Fed rate cuts.

The Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund invests in corporate credit and real assets to generate high income. Despite a strong risk rally, the RA fund has barely kept pace with its distribution yield. On a normalized basis, I do not believe the RA fund's distribution is sustainable given it is paying ~10% of NAV, while long-term performance has been 4-5%.

Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc. has a massive yield and is trading at a discount to NAV. The distribution has been cut once in the past. We tell you what kind of returns you can expect from this one.

Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund remains attractively priced with a discount of over 11% to its NAV. The fund's performance has improved since the distribution cut, which bodes well for the current distribution remaining sustainable. RA primarily invests in debt instruments, which can limit potential long-term upside, but the fund's debt-focused portfolio is also trading below par.

Several higher-yielding closed-end funds have cut their distributions this year, resulting in significant drops for those trading at high premiums. Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Inc. was one of these cutters that has now seen the fund drop to a deep discount. This deep discount makes the RA CEF now much more appealing than it had been at any time in the last few years.
