Dividend Power Score
A single, comprehensive score designed to measure the true strength of a company’s dividend.
This score combines three essential pillars of dividend quality:
Consistency – Measures how reliable the dividend has been over time, focusing on payment history, stability, and the absence of cuts or suspensions.
Payability – Assesses the company’s financial ability to sustain its dividend, taking into account cash flow, earnings coverage, balance sheet strength, and overall financial health.
Growth – Evaluates the long-term growth of both the dividend and the company’s share price, highlighting businesses that consistently increase payouts while creating shareholder value.
Higher scores identify companies that have historically delivered dependable income alongside sustained dividend growth and long-term capital appreciation.
Company Overview
Brookfield Business Corporation is a publicly traded subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management, focused on owning and operating businesses in the industrial, infrastructure services, and business services sectors. The company operates as a long-term owner and operator, generating revenue primarily through cash flows from its controlled operating subsidiaries rather than through financial trading activities. Its business model emphasizes stable earnings, operational improvement, and disciplined capital allocation.
The company was formed in 2022 through the reorganization of Brookfield Business Partners, creating Brookfield Business Corporation as the corporate vehicle while Brookfield Business Partners continues to operate as a limited partnership. This structure was designed to broaden the investor base by offering a corporate alternative while maintaining alignment with Brookfield’s global private equity and operating expertise. Brookfield Business Corporation benefits from Brookfield’s scale, access to capital, and long-standing experience in acquiring and improving industrial and service-oriented businesses.

Operations are conducted across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and South America through a portfolio of majority-owned subsidiaries.

It maintains close operational oversight, leveraging Brookfield’s operating partners and centralized capabilities in finance, risk management, and strategic planning.

Emerging areas of focus include infrastructure-related services, automation within industrial operations, and businesses aligned with long-term global investment in transportation, energy transition, and logistics.
