Picture an electricity network in the middle of a global expansion, or a data center cooling system designed to run for decades without a hiccup. That is the world of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (NYSE:BIP). As a global owner and operator of critical utility, transport, midstream, and digital platforms, it focuses on the unglamorous but essential physical assets that keep the modern economy functioning.
