Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

We are pleased to provide the Annual Report for Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Fund (the “Infrastructure Fund”), Brookfield Global Listed Real Estate Fund (the “Global Real Estate Fund”), Brookfield U.S. Listed Real Estate Fund (the “U.S. Real Estate Fund”) and Brookfield Real Assets Securities Fund (the “Real Assets Securities Fund”) (each, a “Fund”, and collectively, the “Funds”) for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Global markets whipsawed in 2018. In the first quarter the MSCI World Index¹ snapped a seven-quarter streak of positive total returns. The decline was largely driven by fears that rising inflation, tighter job markets and fiscal stimulus would accelerate the pace of U.S. interest-rate hikes. Those fears appeared to subside as global equities drifted higher throughout the second and third quarters. However, global equities declined sharply in the fourth quarter amid concerns around slowing global economic growth related to ongoing trade disputes and geopolitical uncertainty; as well as tighter monetary policies by central banks.

The ongoing trade dispute between the U.S. and China continued to escalate throughout 2018, as the two imposed billions of dollars in tariffs on one another across hundreds of products. In December, the two nations announced a temporary truce to de-escalate the situation. However, the negative implications of these policies are beginning to appear in economies across the globe.

The U.S. Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee increased the target range for the federal funds rate on four occasions in 2018 (25 basis points each). At the press conference following the December announcement, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell appeared to spook markets when he indicated the unwinding of the Fed’s balance sheet holdings would remain on “autopilot.” Also during the quarter, the European Central Bank confirmed it would formally end its multi-trillion bond-buying program which began in March 2015.

With the exception of energy infrastructure, real asset equities outperformed broad market equities in 2018.² Relative outperformance was particularly meaningful in the fourth quarter, when volatility increased. In our view, the relative outperformance of real assets over the recent market drawdown reflects on the historically defensive nature of companies that own and operate tangible real assets, such as real estate and infrastructure. For real estate, these defensive characteristics are driven by the contracted lease structures of commercial real estate properties. For infrastructure, the assets are usually long-lived with revenues that are contracted or regulated, often linked to inflation.

While we do see evidence of modest growth in the global economy, we also acknowledge an uptick of market and economic risks across the globe. We believe these conditions make listed real assets even more attractive for investors to own in their portfolios. These companies—which provide critical infrastructure and makeup the backbone of the global economy, have been shown to produce resilient cash flows throughout economic cycles.

In addition to performance information and additional discussion on factors impacting the Funds, this report provides the Funds’ audited financial statements and schedule of investments as of December 31, 2018.

We welcome your questions and comments, and encourage you to contact our Investor Relations team at (855) 777-8001 or visit us at www.brookfield.com for more information. Thank you for your support.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of a Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges and redemption fees on redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period as indicated below.

Actual Fund Return

The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The table below also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with hypothetical examples that appear in shareholders’ reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) and redemption fees. Therefore, the hypothetical account values and expenses in the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs overall would have been higher.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Infrastructure Fund, Class I had a total return of -7.95%, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and is exclusive of brokerage commissions, overperforming the Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Composite Index¹, which returned -8.54%.

By sector, the leading contributor to relative performance was the non-index Renewables/Electric Generation. Stock selection within the MLP and Toll Roads sector also contributed. Within the MLP sector, relative outperformance was due to a combination of overweight exposure to outperforming names, coupled with not owning a number of underperforming stocks. Relative outperformance within the Toll Roads sector was due to outperforming non-index holdings, as well as underweight exposure to several underperforming stocks.

Conversely, the Gas Utilities was the leading detractor from relative returns, driven by underweight exposure and stock selection. Underperformance was largely due to underweight exposure to Asia Pacific gas utilities, which performed well during the year. Stock selection within the Electricity Transmission & Distribution sector also detracted, driven by overweight exposure to PG&E Corporation (PCG, Electricity Transmission & Distribution, U.S.) and underweight allocations to a number of outperforming stocks in the group. An underweight allocation within Communications also detracted, largely driven by not owning select satellite companies. These companies outperformed amid speculation that the U.S. Federal Communications Commission is considering repurposing a portion of the C-band (3700-4200 MHz) spectrum from satellite services for next-generation 5G services.

By region, the U.S., Latin America and Canada were the leading contributors due to stock selection. Conversely, Asia Pacific was the leading detractor from relative performance due to stock selection and underweight exposure. Stock selection and overweight allocations in Continental Europe and the U.K. were also leading detractors.

By security, non-index holding Orsted A/S (ORSTED.DC, Renewables/Electric Generation, Continental Europe) was the leading contributor to relative returns. The timing of overweight exposure to Energy Transfer Operating, L.P. (ETP, MLP, U.S.) also contributed as the stock performed well amid the merger of Energy Transfer Equity, L.P. and Energy Transfer Partners, L.P., which simplified the overall structure of the company. The timing of underweight exposure to Edison International (EIX, Electricity Transmission & Distribution, U.S.) was also a leading contributor as the stock declined meaningfully following the Southern California wildfires.

Conversely, an overweight allocation to PG&E Corporation (PCG, Electricity Transmission & Distribution, U.S.) was the leading detractor from relative returns. The stock also declined meaningfully following the Northern California wildfires. Overweight exposure to Atlantia S.p.A (ATL.IM, Toll Roads, Continental Europe) also detracted as the stock fell following the Morandi bridge tragedy in Genoa, Italy. Underweight exposure to Hong Kong & China Gas Co. Ltd. (3.HK, Gas Utilities, Asia Pacific) also detracted as the stock rallied during the year.

INFRASTRUCTURE MARKET OVERVIEW

Listed infrastructure returns were negative in 2018, as measured by the Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Composite Index, which declined 8.5% during the year. By region, the Americas was down 6.9%, while Asia Pacific and Europe rose 4.7% and 1.2%, respectively. By sector, Ports declined the most (−26.6%), followed by Water (−7.4%), Airports (−7.1%), Electricity Transmission & Distribution (−6.2%), Oil & Gas Storage & Transportation (−4.6%), Toll Roads (−2.3%) and Diversified (−0.7%). Only Communications (+6.5%) posted positive gains.

As measured by the Alerian MLP Index, Energy infrastructure continued on its recovery path during the first half of the year, driven by improved sentiment amid strong fundamentals and higher commodity prices. Within the MLP universe, however, returns varied as some companies were more adversely impacted by the surprise announcement in March from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) that disallowed an MLP to recover an income tax allowance in its cost of service rates.

2018 Annual Report5

Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Fund

through the removal of Accumulated Deferred Income Taxes (ADIT) from the rate base by allowing consolidated MLPs to include a federal income tax allowance in certain instances. At a minimum, the additional clarity provided by the modified proposal should ameliorate the uncertainty surrounding those names most impacted by the previous FERC actions.

After posting positive returns through the first three quarters, energy infrastructure stocks, as measured by the Alerian MLP Index², declined in the fourth quarter as the price of West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil fell more than 35%.

Utilities generally outperformed global equities on a relative basis, especially during the fourth quarter in a flight to quality amid heightened volatility. Overall performance within the group, however, was hindered by California utilities, which underperformed following wildfires in the state. Select U.K. utilities also lagged amid regulatory uncertainty.³

Within the transports sector, ports were hit particularly hard amid global trade disputes. This small group of stocks declined roughly 27% during the year. Airports declined on a clouded outlook for global economic growth, as well as political uncertainty in certain regions. Toll roads fared the best among transports during the year.³

Despite uncertainty with regard to wireless carrier consolidation following the announcement of the T-Mobile and Sprint merger, several larger U.S. communication infrastructure companies posted positive returns during the Period. Certain satellite operators also performed well on speculation related to the C-band spectrum, where the U.S. Federal Communications Commission is considering repurposing a portion of that spectrum for next-generation 5G services.

OUTLOOK

Our outlook for the sector remains largely unchanged. We remain optimistic based on several factors: we believe volume growth is strong, valuations remain compelling and we think capital markets are recognizing the right projects. New projects continue to be announced to address takeaway constraints for crude oil and natural gas in key U.S. basins. As such, we believe these constraints should be short lived. Additionally, we are encouraged by the way corporate governance structures are improving and the shift toward models that are less reliant on equity markets to fund growth.

We maintain our preference for utilities exposed to low-cost renewables generation, as well as those located in favorable regulatory environments. We continue to monitor the regulatory impacts from the wildfires in California as new information comes to light. Regulatory risk also remains a concern for us among Chinese utilities, where regulatory changes can be swift and unexpected. We have seen select opportunities emerge, however, as these stocks have sold off in recent months. We have also begun to see some attractive relative valuations emerge among select European utilities.

Overall traffic trends in Europe remain favorable, where we prefer toll roads over airports. We recently took a more positive view on select toll roads in Brazil after meeting with management teams, in addition to the greater clarity in the market amid the election outcome. Conversely, we reduced our exposure to Mexico after the election of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who announced the cancellation of the partially completed $13 billion airport in Mexico City.

We have shifted our holdings among U.S. communication tower companies toward those we view to be more defensive in nature. Among satellite operators, we are monitoring developments around the C-band spectrum. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is considering repurposing a portion of that spectrum for next-generation 5G services; and we continue to evaluate the value of these spectrum rights.

Performance data quoted represents past performance; past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained by calling 855.244.4859. Performance shown including sales charge reflects the Class A maximum sales charge of 4.75% and the Class C Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC) of 1.00%. Performance data excluding sales charge does not reflect the deduction of the sales charge or CDSC and if reflected, the sales charge or fee would reduce the performance quoted.

The Fund’s gross and net expense ratios in the prospectus dated April 30, 2018, for Class A is 1.50% and 1.35%, Class C is 2.25% and 2.10%, Class Y is 1.25% and 1.10% and Class I is 1.25% and 1.10%, respectively for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Disclosure

The Fund’s portfolio holdings are subject to change without notice. The mention of specific securities is not a recommendation or solicitation for any person to buy, sell or hold any particular security. There is no assurance that the Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Fund currently holds these securities. Please refer to the Schedule of Investments contained in this report for a full listing of fund holdings.

Infrastructure companies may be subject to a variety of factors that may adversely affect their business, including high interest costs, high leverage, regulation costs, economic slowdown, surplus capacity, increased competition, lack of fuel availability and energy conversation policies. The Fund invests in small and mid-cap companies, which involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. The Fund invests in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. Investing in emerging markets may entail special risks relating to potential economic, political or social instability and the risks of nationalization, confiscation or the imposition of restrictions on foreign investment. Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investment by the Fund in lower-rated and non-rated securities presents a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities. Some securities held may be difficult to sell, particularly during times of market turmoil. If the Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet redemption, it may be forced to sell at a loss. Investing in MLPs involves certain risks related to investing in the underlying assets of the MLPs and risks associated with pooled investment vehicles. Using derivatives exposes the Fund to additional risks, may increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value and may not provide the result intended. Since the Fund will invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities in the Infrastructure industry, the Fund may be subject to greater volatility than a fund that is more broadly diversified.

Earnings growth is not a measure of the Fund’s future performance.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Global Real Estate Fund, Class I had a total return of -8.06%, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and is exclusive of brokerage commissions, underperforming the FTSE EPRA NAREIT Developed Index¹, which returned -4.74%.

During the 12-month period ending December 31, 2018, the Retail sector was the leading contributor to relative performance due to stock selection and underweight exposure. We did not own a number of underperforming names in the sector during the year. The timing of our overweight exposure to Simon Property Group, Inc. (SPG, Retail, U.S.) contributed as well. The Healthcare sector was also a contributor, due to stock selection and overweight exposure. Conversely, Office was the leading sector detractor due to stock selection and overweight exposure. Office was the worst performing property type during the year and as a result, overweight and non-index holdings detracted from relative returns. Stock selection within the Residential and Data Centers sectors also detracted.

By region, Australia/New Zealand (stock selection) and Continental Europe (underweight exposure) were leading contributors. Conversely, Japan (stock selection) and the U.K. (overweight exposure) were the leading detractors from relative performance.

By security, underweight exposure to Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield (URW.NA, Retail, France) was the leading contributor to relative returns as the malaise that has plagued U.S. retail real estate now appears to be spreading to Europe. Overweight exposure to Simon Property Group, Inc. (SPG, Retail, U.S.) also contributed. Simon outperformed after reporting better-than-expected earnings, stable occupancy and positive re-leasing spreads. The company also began providing more detail on its redevelopment and development pipeline; and its pipeline of densification opportunities garnered positive attention. Overweight exposure to Dexus (DXS.AU, Diversified, Australia) contributed as well.

Conversely, overweight exposure to Land Securities Group PLC (LAND.LN, Diversified, U.K.) detracted as the stock declined on Brexit uncertainty. Non-index holding Leopalace21 Corporation (8848.JP, Residential, Japan) also detracted. The stock declined meaningfully in May 2018 after construction deficiencies were reported at some of the company’s apartments. Although we think the monetary costs related to repairing the deficiencies are not overly large, the long-term reputational effect on the company is much harder to estimate and could be much more damaging to the company’s long-term value. Lastly, overweight exposure to City Developments Limited (CIT.SP, Diversified, Singapore) detracted as well. Singapore real estate stocks took a leg down after the government enacting cooling measures. The government enacted stricter borrowing limits for first time buyers, meaning they have to put more cash up front. Stamp duties were also increased for foreign purchasers of residential property.

GLOBAL REAL ESTATE MARKET OVERVIEW

Global real estate securities, as measured by the FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index¹ (the “Benchmark”) declined 4.7% during the year. By region, Europe, North America and Asia Pacific declined 12.1%, 3.9% and 1.5%, respectively.

By U.S. property type, Office posted the steepest declines during the year (−14.6%), followed by Hotels (−12.6%), Diversified (−7.9%), Retail (−7.2%), Industrial (−2.5%) and Mixed (0.0%). Conversely, Healthcare (+7.7%), Residential (+3.3%) and Self Storage (+2.9%) posted gains during the year.

Global real estate equities, as measured by the FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index, underperformed the broader equity market early in 2018 on fears that rising inflation, tighter job markets and fiscal stimulus would accelerate the pace of U.S. interest-rate hikes. Those fears appeared to subside throughout the year as global real estate equities drifted higher for six straight months through August.

2018 Annual Report13

Brookfield Global Listed Real Estate Fund

were not immune to the downturn, but declined substantially less than broader equity markets, with the FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index¹ down 5.5%, compared to the MSCI World Index², which was off 13.3%.

Weakness for the year within the Office and Hotels sectors was largely a result of the clouded outlook on future growth. Performance within U.S. retail diverged, with higher quality operators outperforming those with lower quality portfolios. Outside the U.S., the malaise that has plagued U.S. retail real estate now appears to be spreading to Europe. Conversely, strong performance within the Healthcare sector was driven by improved fundamentals. Self Storage performed well despite supply concerns in a number of major metropolitan areas.³

OUTLOOK

Despite increased expectations that growth may slow in the coming years, the U.S. economy remains healthy and is expected to outperform developed market peers. We do not believe a recession is imminent, but we see elevated risks that growth is likely to slow. As such, we have positioned the portfolio toward what we believe to be more conservative holdings.

Within real estate, supply and demand appear relatively well balanced across most property types, and we are seeing inflationary rental growth. Leverage ratios have declined to the lowest levels ever recorded. In addition, many real estate companies have extended their average debt maturities to lock in lower-for-longer interest expenses moving forward. Our preference for companies with strong balance sheets is unchanged and we remain focused on companies with below average levels of leverage. We believe this is important from a portfolio construction standpoint in the current environment as companies with low leverage have the potential to perform better if we experience a downturn in the current business cycle.

Currently we see opportunities within U.S. multifamily residential real estate. New supply appears muted and jobs growth (which is a demand driver for apartments) remains strong. We are seeing attractive discounts to net asset value (NAV) in the Office sector. In particular, we see compelling opportunities in some West Coast and Sunbelt markets.

Conversely, we see fewer opportunities across the broader U.S. Retail sector. Our holdings are focused on what we believe to be the highest quality companies that operate in the most attractive markets. We are also less constructive within the Industrial sector amid lofty valuations and supply concerns.

Outside the U.S., we continue to see value in Japan, where we believe Japanese developers present attractive valuations on an absolute basis, as well as in relation to their J-REIT counterparts. We specifically like developers focused on the Tokyo office market, where demand is strong for new buildings. Elsewhere in Asia, we are cautious about Hong Kong, particularly the residential market given the tightening of China’s capital controls that have impacted property ownership, as well as uncertainty surrounding the ongoing U.S. trade conflict with China.

We continue to be positive on the U.K. market, despite the continued uncertainty on the Brexit resolution—although we have reduced retail exposure in favor of office properties where we still see good leasing demand. We have also begun to increase exposure in some Continental European markets as valuations have improved.

Disclosure

The Fund’s portfolio holdings are subject to change without notice. The mention of specific securities is not a recommendation or solicitation for any person to buy, sell or hold any particular security. There is no assurance that the Brookfield Global Listed Real Estate Fund currently holds these securities. Please refer to the Schedule of Investments contained in this report for a full listing of fund holdings.

Investors should be aware of the risks involved with investing in a fund concentrating in REITs and real estate securities, such as declines in the value of real estate and increased susceptibility to adverse economic or regulatory developments. Investments in foreign securities involve political, economic and currency risks, greater volatility and differences in accounting methods. Investing in emerging markets may entail special risks relating to potential economic, political or social instability and the risks of nationalization, confiscation or the imposition of restrictions on foreign investment. The Fund invests in small and mid-cap companies, which involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investment by the Fund in lower-rated and non-rated securities presents a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities. Some securities held may be difficult to sell, particularly during times of market turmoil. If the Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet redemption, the Fund may be forced to sell at a loss. Using derivatives exposes the Fund to additional risks, may increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value and may not provide the result intended. Since the Fund will invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities in the Real Estate industry, the Fund may be subject to greater volatility than a fund that is more broadly diversified.

Earnings growth is not a measure of the Fund’s future performance.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the U.S. Real Estate Fund, Class I had a total return -6.90%, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and is exclusive of brokerage commissions, underperforming the MSCI U.S. REIT Index¹, which returned -4.57%.

During the 12-month period ending December 31, 2018, the Retail sector was the leading contributor to relative performance due to stock selection. We did not own a number of underperforming names in the sector during the year. The timing of our overweight exposure to Simon Property Group, Inc. (SPG, Retail) contributed as well. Underweight exposure to the Diversified sector was also a leading contributor to relative returns, as was overweight exposure within the Healthcare sector.

Conversely, the Data Centers sector was the leading detractor from relative returns due to stock selection. The Office sector was also among the leading detractors due to stock selection and overweight exposure, as it was the worst performing property type during the year. Stock selection within Residential also detracted.

By security, the timing of our overweight exposure to Park Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (PK, Hotels) was the leading contributor to relative returns. An overweight allocation to Simon Property Group, Inc. (SPG, Retail) was also a leading contributor. Simon outperformed after reporting better-than-expected earnings, stable occupancy and positive re-leasing spreads. The company also began providing more detail on its redevelopment and development pipeline; and its pipeline of densification opportunities garnered positive attention. Overweight exposure to HCP, Inc. (HCP, Healthcare) was also a leading contributor during the year.

Conversely, overweight exposure to QTS Realty Trust, Inc. (QTS, Data Centers) was the leading detractor from relative returns. The stock declined meaningfully after the company unexpectedly announced a reorganization to exit the Cloud Managed Services business (often referred to as C3), along with a number of management changes. Overweight exposure to RLJ Lodging Trust (RLJ, Hotels) and non-index Extended Stay America, Inc. (STAY, Hotels) were also leading detractors, as the sector was one of the worst performers during the year.

U.S. REAL ESTATE MARKET OVERVIEW

U.S. real estate securities were down 4.6% for the year, as measured by the MSCI US REIT Index¹ (the “Benchmark”). By U.S. property type, Office posted the steepest declines during the year (−14.6%), followed by Hotels (−12.6%), Diversified (−7.9%), Retail (−7.2%), Industrial (−2.5%) and Mixed (0.0%). Conversely, Healthcare (+7.7%), Residential (+3.3%) and Self Storage (+2.9%) posted gains during the year.²

U.S. real estate equities, as measured by the MSCI US REIT Index, underperformed the broader U.S. equity market early in 2018 on fears that rising inflation, tighter job markets and fiscal stimulus would accelerate the pace of U.S. interest-rate hikes. Those fears appeared to subside as U.S. real estate equities drifted higher for six straight months through August.

In the final quarter of the year, nearly all asset classes sold off on concerns around slower economic growth as a result of global trade disputes, geopolitical uncertainty and tightening of monetary policies. Real estate equities were not immune to the downturn, but declined substantially less than broader equity markets, with the MSCI US REIT Index down 6.7%, compared to the S&P 500 Index³, which was off 13.5%.

Weakness for the year within the Office and Hotels sectors was largely a result of the clouded outlook on future growth. Performance within U.S. retail diverged, with higher quality operators outperforming those with lower quality portfolios. Conversely, strong performance within the Healthcare sector was driven by improved fundamentals. Self Storage performed well despite supply concerns in a number of major metropolitan areas.⁴

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Real Assets Securities Fund, Class I had a total return -8.32%, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and is exclusive of brokerage commissions, underperforming the Fund’s Blended Index¹, which returned -6.11%.

On an absolute performance basis, all asset class components of the strategy detracted during the period.

On a relative to the benchmark performance basis, REIT Preferreds contributed positively due to underweight exposure. Conversely, Global Real Estate was the leading detractor, driven primarily by security selection. Overweight exposure to Metals & Mining Equities was also a leading detractor from relative returns.

In the next section, we provide further detail on the performance of each asset class, along with our outlook for investing in real asset-related securities.

GLOBAL INFRASTRUCTURE SECURITIES

Listed infrastructure returns were negative in 2018, as measured by the Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Composite Index², which declined 8.5% during the year. By region, the Americas was down 6.9%, while Asia Pacific and Europe rose 4.7% and 1.2%, respectively. By sector, Ports declined the most (−26.6%), followed by Water (−7.4%), Airports (−7.1%), Electricity Transmission & Distribution (−6.2%), Oil & Gas Storage & Transportation (−4.6%), Toll Roads (−2.3%) and Diversified (−0.7%). Only Communications (+6.5%) posted positive gains.

As measured by the Alerian MLP Index³, Energy infrastructure continued on its recovery path during the first half of the year, driven by improved sentiment amid strong fundamentals and higher commodity prices. Within the MLP universe, however, returns varied as some companies were more adversely impacted by the surprise announcement in March from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) that disallowed an MLP to recover an income tax allowance in its cost of service rates.

The FERC made another surprise announcement on July 18, 2018 with a modified proposal that clarified the original March ruling. The modified proposal, in our view, substantially mitigates the potential rate reductions through the removal of Accumulated Deferred Income Taxes (ADIT) from the rate base by allowing consolidated MLPs to include a federal income tax allowance in certain instances. At a minimum, the additional clarity provided by the modified proposal should ameliorate the uncertainty surrounding those names most impacted by the previous FERC actions.

GLOBAL REAL ESTATE SECURITIES

Global real estate securities, as measured by the FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index⁵ declined 4.7% during the year. By region, Europe, North America and Asia Pacific declined 12.1%, 3.9% and 1.5%, respectively.

In the final quarter of the year, nearly all asset classes sold off on concerns around slower economic growth as a result of global trade disputes, geopolitical uncertainty and tightening of monetary policies. Real estate equities were not immune to the downturn, but declined substantially less than broader equity markets, with the FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index down 5.5%, compared to the MSCI World Index⁶, which was off 13.3%.

FIXED INCOME

The ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Index⁸ returned −3.3% and the ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global Corporate Index⁹ (investment grade) returned −3.5% in 2018.

The drawdown in the fourth quarter did restore some value to credit markets. For the year, spreads widened nearly 170 basis points to approximately 540 at year-end.¹⁰ We had been concerned about the below-average spreads for some time, considering the extended cycle. With the selloff, valuations are now closer to their long-term averages, which we believe to be more appropriate for late-cycle credit.

¹ The Blended Index for the period from October 1, 2016 forward consists of 35% FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index, 5% BofA Merrill Lynch Preferred Stock REITs 7% Constrained Index, 40% Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Index, 5% Alerian MLP Index, and 15% the ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Index and ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global Corporate Index, weighted 70% and 30%, respectively. For the period from November 19, 2014 through September 30, 2016, the Blended Index consisted of 33.33% Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Composite Index, 33.33% FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index, 13.33% the ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Index and ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global Corporate Index, weighted 70% and 30%, respectively, 10% S&P Global Natural Resources Index, 6.66% Bloomberg Commodity Index and 3.33% Barclays Global Inflation-Linked Index. The Bloomberg Barclays Global Inflation-Linked Index includes securities which offer the potential for protection against inflation as their cash flows are linked to an underlying inflation index. All securities included in the index have to be issued by an investment-grade rated sovereign in its local currency. The Bloomberg Commodity Index is a broadly diversified index composed of commodities traded on U.S. exchanges, with the exception of aluminum, nickel and zinc, which trade on the London Metals Exchange. The Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Composite Index is calculated and maintained by S&P Dow Jones Indices and comprises infrastructure companies with at least 70% of its annual cash flows derived from owning and operating infrastructure assets, including Master Limited Partnerships ("MLPs"). The Dow Jones Brookfield Index is not affiliated with Brookfield and as such, Brookfield does not select securities for inclusion in the index. The ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global Corporate Index is an unmanaged, commonly accepted measure of the performance of global investment grade corporate securities. Index returns are calculated monthly, assume reinvestment of dividends. The BofA Merrill Lynch Preferred Stock REITs 7% Constrained Index contains all securities in The BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. Fixed Rate Preferred Securities Index that are REITs, but caps issuer exposure at 7%. The S&P Global Natural Resource Equities Index includes 90 of the largest publicly traded companies in natural resources and commodities businesses across three primary commodity related sectors: Agribusiness, Energy and Metals & Mining. The ICE BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Index tracks the performance of below investment-grade, U.S. dollar-denominated corporate bonds publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market, and includes issues with a credit rating of BBB or below, as rated by Moody's and S&P.

OUTLOOK

From a macroeconomic perspective, our projections for global growth have been adjusted modestly lower. Notable headwinds are global trade policies, Brexit, Italy and potentially slowing growth in China. We believe the U.S. economy is fundamentally strong and likely to lead developed economies, while growth in China is likely dependent on the success of government stimulus. Recent data suggest that inflation is likely to be lower than previously anticipated. We see potential inflationary pressures from U.S. stimulus, China stimulus and tariffs. Conversely, deflationary pressures are likely to include declining oil prices, a stable U.S. labor market and slowing U.S. home price appreciation.

BROOKFIELD INVESTMENT FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2018

1.Organization

Brookfield Investment Funds (the “Trust”) was organized as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware on May 12, 2011. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust currently consists of seven separate investment series referred to as Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Fund (the “Infrastructure Fund”), Brookfield Global Listed Real Estate Fund (the “Global Real Estate Fund”), Brookfield U.S. Listed Real Estate Fund (the “U.S. Real Estate Fund”), Brookfield Real Assets Securities Fund (the “Real Assets Securities Fund”), Center Coast Brookfield MLP Focus Fund (the “Focus Fund”), Center Coast Brookfield Energy Infrastructure Fund (the “Energy Infrastructure Fund”) and Brookfield Real Assets Debt Fund (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”), four of which are included in this report and are currently offered for sale. The Infrastructure Fund, Global Real Estate Fund and Real Assets Securities Fund are each a diversified open-end management investment company, and the U.S. Real Estate Fund, Focus Fund and Energy Infrastructure Fund are non-diversified open-end management investment companies. The Energy Infrastructure Fund and the Brookfield Real Assets Debt Fund is not currently available for purchase.

Each Fund currently has four classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Class Y and Class I shares. Each class represents an interest in the same portfolio of assets and has identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights except that: (i) Class A shares have a maximum front end sales charge of 4.75% and Class C shares have a maximum deferred sales charge of 1.00%; (ii) Class A shares have a 12b-1 fee of 0.25% and Class C shares have a 12b-1 fee of 1.00%; and (iii) each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters relating to its own distribution arrangements. The assets belonging to a particular Fund belong to that Fund for all purposes, and to no other Fund, subject only to the rights of creditors of that Fund.

Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC (the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management Inc., is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and serves as investment adviser to the Funds.

The investment objective of each Fund is to seek total return through growth of capital and current income. Each Fund's investment objective is not fundamental and may be changed by the Trust's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) without shareholder approval, upon not less than 60 days prior written notice to shareholders. There can be no assurance that each Fund will achieve its investment objective.

2.Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Fund is an investment company within the scope of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08 and follows accounting and reporting guidance under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services-Investment Companies.

Valuation of Investments: The Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of each Fund’s securities. The Adviser oversees the day to day responsibilities for valuation determinations under these procedures. The Board regularly reviews the application of these procedures to the securities in each Fund’s portfolio. The Adviser’s Valuation Committee is comprised of senior members of the Adviser’s management team. There can be no assurance that each Fund could purchase or sell a portfolio security at the price used to calculate each Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”).

Debt securities, including U.S. government securities, listed corporate bonds, other fixed income and asset-backed securities, and unlisted securities and private placement securities, are generally valued at the bid prices furnished

by an independent pricing service or, if not valued by an independent pricing service, using bid prices obtained from active and reliable market makers in any such security or a broker-dealer. The broker-dealers or pricing services use multiple valuation techniques to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, the broker-dealers or pricing services may utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the broker-dealers or pricing services also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market transactions in comparable securities and the various relationships between securities in determining fair value and/or market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, option-adjusted spreads, credit spreads, estimated default rates, coupon-rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral, and other unique security features in order to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are then discounted to calculate the fair values. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost of discount or premium to maturity, unless such valuation, in the judgment of the Adviser’s Valuation Committee, does not represent fair value.

Investments in equity securities listed or traded on any securities exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the last trade price as of the close of business on the valuation date. Prices of foreign equities that are principally traded on certain foreign markets will generally be adjusted daily pursuant to a fair value pricing service approved by the Board in order to reflect an adjustment for the factors occurring after the close of certain foreign markets but before the NYSE Close. When fair value pricing is employed, the value of the portfolio securities used to calculate the Funds’ NAV may differ from quoted or official closing prices. Investments in open-end registered investment companies, if any, are valued at the NAV as reported by those investment companies.

Securities for which market prices are not readily available or which cannot be valued using the sources described above will be valued using an internal proprietary fair value methodology. For any security warranting such fair value measurement, a memorandum, including the specific methodology and supporting information, will be provided to the Valuation Committee by a portfolio manager or analyst looking to fair value a particular security utilizing the internal proprietary fair value methodology. A portfolio manager or analyst shall use their best efforts to maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs within their valuation technique. The Valuation Committee shall review the memorandum and supporting information provided by a portfolio manager or analyst and consider all relevant factors as it deems appropriate before approving the fair value recommendation.

Each Fund may use the fair value of a security to calculate its NAV when, for example, (1) a portfolio security is not traded in a public market or the principal market in which the security trades is closed, (2) trading in a portfolio security is suspended and not resumed prior to the normal market close, (3) a portfolio security is not traded in significant volume for a substantial period, or (4) the Adviser determines that the quotation or price for a portfolio security provided by a broker-dealer or an independent pricing service is inaccurate.

The fair value of securities may be difficult to determine and thus judgment plays a greater role in the valuation process. The fair valuation methodology may include or consider the following guidelines, as appropriate: (1) evaluation of all relevant factors, including but not limited to, pricing history, current market level, supply and demand of the respective security; (2) comparison to the values and current pricing of securities that have comparable characteristics; (3) knowledge of historical market information with respect to the security; (4) other factors relevant to the security which would include, but not be limited to, duration, yield, fundamental analytical data, the Treasury yield curve, and credit quality.

The values assigned to fair valued investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in investments. Changes in the fair valuation of portfolio securities may be less frequent and of greater magnitude than changes in the price of portfolio securities valued at their last sale price, by an independent pricing service, or based on market quotations. Imprecision in estimating fair value can also impact the amount of unrealized

2018 Annual Report53

BROOKFIELD INVESTMENT FUNDS

December 31, 2018

appreciation or depreciation recorded for a particular portfolio security and differences in the assumptions used could result in a different determination of fair value, and those differences could be material.

The Funds have established methods of fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP. Fair value denotes the price that a Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. A three-tier hierarchy has been established to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 -	quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 -	quoted prices in markets that are not active or other significant observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices based on recently executed transactions, interest rates, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 -	significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities)

The Adviser’s valuation policy, as previously stated, establishes parameters for the sources and types of valuation analysis, as well as, the methodologies and inputs the Adviser uses in determining fair value. If the Valuation Committee determines that additional techniques, sources or inputs are appropriate or necessary in a given situation, such additional work will be undertaken.

Significant increases or decreases in any of the unobservable inputs in isolation may result in a lower or higher fair value measurement.

To assess the continuing appropriateness of security valuations, the Adviser (or its third party service providers, who are subject to oversight by the Adviser), regularly compares its prior day prices, prices on comparable securities and sale prices to the current day prices and challenges those prices that exceed certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, the Adviser’s Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

December 31, 2018

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities are accreted and amortized, respectively, on a daily basis, using the effective yield to maturity method adjusted based on management’s assessment of the collectability of such interest. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net realized gain (loss) on Statement of Operations may also include realized gain distributions received from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Distributions of net realized gains are recorded on the REIT's ex-dividend date. Distributions from REITs are recorded as ordinary income, net realized capital gain or return of capital based on information reported by the REITs and management’s estimates of such amounts based on historical information. These estimates are adjusted when the actual source of distributions is disclosed by the REITs and actual amounts may differ from the estimated amounts.

Master Limited Partnerships: A master limited partnership (“MLP”) is an entity receiving partnership taxation treatment under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), the partnership interests or “units” of which are traded on securities exchanges like shares of corporate stock. Holders of MLP units generally have limited control and voting rights on matters affecting the partnership.

The Infrastructure Fund and Real Assets Securities Fund invest in MLPs, which generally are treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. If an MLP does not meet current legal requirements to maintain partnership status, or if it is unable to do so because of tax law changes, it would be taxed as a corporation or other form of taxable entity and there could be a material decrease in the value of its securities. Additionally, if tax law changes to eliminate or reduce tax deductions such as depletion, depreciation and amortization expense deductions that MLPs have been able to use to offset a significant portion of their taxable income, it could significantly reduce the value of the MLPs held by the Funds and could cause a greater portion of the income and gain allocated to the Funds to be subject to U.S. federal, state and local corporate income taxes, which would reduce the amount the Fund can distribute to shareholders and could increase the percentage of Funds distributions treated as dividends instead of tax-deferred return of capital.

Depreciation or other cost recovery deductions passed through to the Funds from investments in MLPs in a given year generally will reduce the Funds’ taxable income (and earnings and profits), but those deductions may be recaptured in the Funds’ taxable income (and earnings and profits) in subsequent years when the MLPs dispose of their assets or when the Fund disposes of its interests in the MLPs. When deductions are recaptured, distributions to the Fund’s shareholders may be taxable.

Return of Capital Estimates: A distribution received from the Fund’s investments in MLPs generally are comprised of income and return of capital. The Fund records investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Fund estimated that 100% of the MLP distributions received would be treated as return of capital.

Foreign Currency Transactions: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds isolate the portion of realized gains or losses resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on securities from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The Funds do not isolate the portion of unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on securities from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of securities, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid.

Expenses: Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund, while expenses which are attributable to more than one Fund in the Trust and other investment companies advised by the Adviser are allocated among the respective investment companies, including the Funds, based upon relative average net assets, evenly or a combination of average net assets and evenly. Income and expenses of a Fund are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class of shares, except for distribution fees, which are unique to each class of shares.

Distributions: Each Fund declares and pays dividends quarterly from net investment income. To the extent these distributions exceed net investment income, they may be classified as return of capital. Each Fund also pays distributions at least annually from their realized capital gains, if any. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. All common shares have equal dividend and other distribution rights. A notice disclosing the source(s) of a distribution is provided after a payment is made from any source other than net investment income. Any such notice is provided only for informational purposes in order to comply with the requirements of Section 19(a) of the 1940 Act and not for tax reporting purposes. The tax composition of the Fund’s distributions for each calendar year is reported on IRS Form 1099-DIV.

Dividends from net investment income and distributions from realized gains from investment transactions have been determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains recorded by each Fund for financial reporting purposes. These differences, which could be temporary or permanent in nature, may result in reclassification of distributions; however, net investment income, net realized gains and losses and net assets are not affected.

New Accounting Pronouncements: In August 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. In general, the amendments in ASU 2018-13 are effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt upon the issuance of ASU 2018-13. Management has implemented the amendments and there was no material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

3.Investment Advisory Agreements and Related Party Transactions

The Adviser currently serves as the investment adviser to each Fund pursuant to separate investment advisory agreements (the “Advisory Agreements”) under which the Adviser is responsible for the management of each Fund’s portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of each Fund.

Pursuant to operating expense limitation agreements (the “Expense Limitation Agreements”), the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its investment advisory or administration fees, as presented above, and/or to reimburse certain expenses of each Fund to the extent necessary to maintain each Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding any front-end or contingent deferred charges, brokerage commissions and other transactional expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation; and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of a Fund’s business) at certain levels. The Expense Limitation Agreements will continue until at least May 1, 2019 and may not be terminated by the Funds or the Adviser before such time. Thereafter, the Expense Limitation Agreements may only be terminated or amended to increase the expense cap as of May 1st of each calendar year, provided that in the case of a termination by the Adviser, the Adviser will provide the Board with written notice of its intention to terminate the arrangement prior to the expiration of its then current term. Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreements, any waivers and/or reimbursements made by the Adviser are subject to recoupment from a Fund for a period not to exceed three years after the occurrence of the waiver and/or reimbursement, provided that the Fund is able to effect such payment to the Adviser and remain in compliance with the expense cap in effect at the time the waivers and/or reimbursements occurred.

The amount of investment advisory fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed available to be recouped before expiration are listed in the table below:

6.Credit Facility

U.S. Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) has made available to the Trust, a credit facility, pursuant to a separate Loan and Security Agreement, for temporary or extraordinary purposes. The maximum line of credit as of December 31, 2018 for the Trust is $75,000,000. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the average interest rate on the outstanding principal amount for the Infrastructure Fund, Global Real Estate Fund and Real Assets Securities Fund was 4.74%, 5.07% and 5.00%, respectively. Advances are not collateralized by a first lien against a Fund’s assets.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Infrastructure Fund, Global Real Estate Fund and Real Assets Securities Fund utilized the credit facility for 16 days, 40 days and 4 days, respectively, and had an outstanding average daily loan balance of $4,304,375, $12,181,350 and $3,478,000, respectively. The maximum amount outstanding during the year was $11,582,000, $31,817,000 and $3,818,000, respectively, and the interest expense amounted to $9,063, $68,641 and $1,932, respectively. The U.S. Real Estate Fund did not utilize the credit facility during the year. At December 31, 2018, the Global Real Estate Fund had $25,243,000 outstanding on the credit facility and the Infrastructure Fund, U.S. Real Estate Fund and Real Assets Securities Fund did not have an amount outstanding on the credit facility.

7.Federal Income Tax Information

Each Fund intends to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. Each Fund may incur an excise tax to the extent it has not distributed all of its taxable income on a calendar year basis.

GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. An evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the taxing authority is required. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be booked as a tax expense in the current year and recognized as: a liability for unrecognized tax benefits; a reduction of an income tax refund receivable; a reduction of a deferred tax asset; an increase in a deferred tax liability; or a combination thereof. As of December 31, 2018, each Fund has determined that there are no uncertain tax positions or tax liabilities required to be accrued.

The Funds have reviewed the taxable years open for examination (i.e. not barred by the applicable statute of limitations) by taxing authorities of all major jurisdictions, including the Internal Revenue Service. As of December 31, 2018, open taxable periods consisted of the taxable years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2018. No examination of the Funds’ tax returns is currently in progress.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

December 31, 2018

Federal Income Tax Basis: The federal income tax basis of each Fund's investments, not including foreign currency translation, at December 31, 2018 was as follows:

Fund	Cost of Investments	Gross Unrealized Appreciation	Gross Unrealized Depreciation	Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)
Infrastructure Fund	$ 166,749,616	$26,164,582	$ (14,852,779)	$ 11,311,803
Global Real Estate Fund	1,716,292,630	54,969,206	(158,840,154)	(103,870,948)
U.S. Real Estate Fund	13,628,587	747,389	(1,065,858)	(318,469)
Real Assets Securities Fund	60,266,978	3,090,402	(5,648,387)	(2,557,985)

Capital Account Reclassifications: Because federal income tax regulations differ in certain respects from GAAP, income and capital gain distributions, if any, determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for wash sales, partnership income/expense and return of capital. Permanent book and tax differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in-capital or to undistributed capital gains. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.

At December 31, 2018, the Fund’s most recently completed tax year-end, the Fund’s components of net assets were increased or (decreased) by the amounts shown in the table below:

	Paid-in capital	Accumulated losses
Infrastructure Fund	$1,403,630	$(1,403,630)
Global Real Estate Fund	(402,517)	402,517
U.S. Real Estate Fund	(9,532)	9,532
Real Assets Securities Fund	746,384	(746,384)

8.Indemnification

Under the Funds’ organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, enters into contracts with vendors and others that provide for indemnification. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, since this would involve the resolution of certain claims, as well as future claims that may be made, against the Funds. Thus an estimate of the financial impact, if any, of these arrangements cannot be made at this time. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be unlikely.

9.Subsequent Events

GAAP requires recognition in the financial statements of the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Funds are required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of their financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made.

Management has evaluated subsequent events in the preparation of the Funds' financial statements and has determined that herein, there are no additional events that require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

December 31, 2018

To the Board of Trustees of Brookfield Investment Funds and Shareholders of:

Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Fund

Brookfield Global Listed Real Estate Fund

Brookfield U.S. Listed Real Estate Fund

Brookfield Real Assets Securities Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Fund, Brookfield Global Listed Real Estate Fund, Brookfield U.S. Listed Real Estate Fund, and Brookfield Real Assets Securities Fund (the “Funds”) each a series comprising the Brookfield Investment Funds, including the schedules of investments as of December 31, 2018, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the portfolios constituting the Brookfield Investment Funds as of December 31, 2018, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-PORT. The Fund's Form N-PORT will be available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the Fund's Form N-PORT may be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

You may obtain a description of the Fund's proxy voting policies and procedures, and information regarding how the Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request by calling 1-855-777-8001, or go to the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Registrant had adopted a Code of Ethics for Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers (the “Code”). There were no amendments to or waivers from the Code during the period covered by this report. A copy of the Registrant’s Code will be provided upon request to any person without charge by contacting Investor Relations at (855) 777-8001 or by writing to Secretary, Brookfield Investment Funds, Brookfield Place, 250 Vesey Street, 15^th Floor, New York, NY 10281-1023.

The Registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that Stuart A. McFarland, Edward A. Kuczmarski and Louis P. Salvatore each qualify as audit committee financial experts, as defined in Item 3(b) of Form N-CSR. Messrs. McFarland, Kuczmarski and Salvatore are considered “independent” for purposes of Item 3(a)(2) of Form N-CSR.

The aggregate fees billed by the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”), to the Funds for the Funds’ two most recent fiscal years for professional services rendered for the audit of the Registrant’s annual financial statements and the review of financial statements that are included in the Registrant’s annual and semi-annual reports to shareholders (“Audit Fees”) were $134,000 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

There were no fees billed by Deloitte to the Funds in its two recent fiscal years for services rendered for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Fund’s financial statements, but are not reported as Audit Fees (“Audit-Related Fees”).

For the Funds’ two most recent fiscal years, there were no Audit-Related Fees billed by Deloitte for engagements related directly to the operations and financial reporting of one or more Funds by a Fund Service Provider. A Fund Service Provider is (a) any investment adviser to the Fund (not including any Subadvisor whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) or (b) any entity that provides ongoing services to the Fund and is controlling, controlled by or under common control with a Fund investment adviser described in (a).

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Deloitte billed the Registrant aggregate fees of $67,859 and $109,977, respectively. Each bill is for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, tax planning and tax reclaim services. The nature of the services comprising the Tax Fees was the review of the Registrant’s income tax returns and tax distribution requirements.

For the Funds’ two most recent fiscal years, Tax Fees billed by Deloitte for engagements by Fund Service Providers that related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds were $0 for fiscal 2018 and $0 for fiscal 2017, respectively.

The services for which Tax Fees were charged comprise all services performed by professional staff in Deloitte’s tax division except those services related to the audit. Typically, this category would include fees for tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice. Tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning services include preparation of original and amended tax returns, claims for refund and tax payment-planning services, assistance with tax audits and appeals, tax advice related to mergers and acquisitions and requests for rulings or technical advice from taxing authorities.

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Deloitte billed the Registrant aggregate fees of $0 and $0, respectively, for all other non-audit services (“Other Fees”). During the same period, there were no Other Fees billed by Deloitte for engagements by Fund Service Providers that related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds.

(e) (1) According to policies adopted by the Audit Committee, services provided by Deloitte to the Funds must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee. On an annual basis, the Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves various types of services that Deloitte may perform for the Funds without specific approval of each engagement, subject to specified budget limitations. As contemplated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related SEC rules, the Audit Committee also pre-approves non-audit services provided by Deloitte to any Fund Service Provider for any engagement that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds. Any engagement that is not already pre-approved or that will exceed a pre-approved budget must be submitted to the Audit Committee for pre-approval.

(g) The aggregate fees billed by Deloitte in 2018 and 2017 for non-audit services rendered to the Funds and Fund Service Providers were $207,859 and $264,977, respectively. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, this amount reflects the amounts disclosed above in Item 4(b),(c),(d), plus $140,000 and $155,000, respectively, in fees billed to the Fund Service Providers for non-audit services that did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds, including fees billed by Deloitte to Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC that were associated with Deloitte’s SSAE 16 Review (formerly, SAS No. 70).

(h) The Trust’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services by registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm to the registrant’s investment advisor, and any entity controlling, controlled, or under common control with the investment adviser that provided ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved by the Committee (because such services did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant) was compatible with maintaining the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm.

Schedule of Investments is included as part of the report to shareholders filed under Item 1 of this Form.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

Item 9. Purchases of Equity Securities by Closed-End Management Investment Company and Affiliated Purchasers.

There were no material changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the Registrant’s Board of Trustees that were implemented after the Registrant last provided disclosure in response to the requirements of Item 407(c)(2)(iv) of Regulation S-K (17 CFR 229.407) (as required by 22(b)(15)) of Schedule 14A (17 CFR 240.14a- 101), or this Item 10.

(a) The Registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Registrant’s Disclosure Controls and Procedures are effective, based on their evaluation of such Disclosure Controls and Procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing of this report on Form N-CSR.

(b) As of the date of filing this Form N-CSR, the Registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are aware of no changes in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Registrant’s second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 12. Disclosure of Securities Lending Activities for Closed-End Management Investment Companies

(2) A separate certification for each principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Registrant as required by Rule 30a-2(a) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 is attached as an exhibit to this Form N-CSR.

(b) A separate certification for each principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Registrant as required by Rule 30a-2(b) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 is attached as an exhibit to this Form N-CSR.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940, this report has been signed below by the following persons on behalf of the Registrant and in the capacities and on the dates indicated.
