Letter to Stockholders

Dear Stockholders,
We are pleased to provide the Semi-Annual Report for Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017.
Global equities continued their post-U.S. election rally during the first half of 2017 as the MSCI World Index1 returned 11.0%. Regional gains were led by Europe, which gained 15.9% amid an improving political and economic backdrop; followed by Asia Pacific (up 11.3%) and North America (up 9.2%).
Global fixed-income markets, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Total Return Index1, rose 4.4% in the first half of 2017. Following the dramatic increase in interest rates during the fourth quarter of 2016, the yield on 10-Year U.S. Treasuries declined 14 basis points during the period, closing at 2.30%.
Uncertainty returned to oil markets as the spot price of West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil declined more than 14% during the period on continued concerns about oversupply and elevated inventory levels, closing at $46.02 per barrel.
The U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) increased the target for the federal funds rate twice during the first half of 2017 (25 basis points each) to a range of 1.0% to 1.25%. At its June meeting the Federal Open Market Committee cited a strengthening labor market and moderately rising economic activity in its June statement on monetary policy; but also noted that inflation measures have recently declined and are likely to remain below the Fed’s two percent target. Also in June, Fed officials indicated they could begin unwinding its $4.5 trillion balance sheet this year. In Europe, European Central Bank (the “ECB”) president Mario Draghi called for “prudence” in the ECB’s policy; while in the U.K., Bank of England governor Mark Carney hinted at the prospect for higher interest rates.
In Europe, political uncertainty abated during the period, notably following the outcome of France’s presidential runoff, when the independent pro-European centrist Emmanuel Macron defeated far-right populist candidate Marine Le Pen.
Overall, we believe we will continue to be in an attractive environment for infrastructure assets. We expect economic growth, inflation and interest rates to all move modestly higher. In such an environment, infrastructure asset companies should have a modest tailwind from earnings growth, somewhat offset by a modest headwind from rising interest rates. We remain mindful of potential headwinds, but are focused on security selection.
In addition to performance information, this report provides the Fund’s unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2017.
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.
Sincerely,
Brian F. Hurley

# Total investment return based on net asset value (“NAV”) is the combination of changes in NAV, reinvested dividend income at NAV and reinvested capital gains distributions at NAV, if any. The actual reinvest price for the last dividend declared in the period may often be based on the Fund’s market price (and not its NAV), and therefore may be different from the price used in the calculation. Total investment return excludes the effects of sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges, if applicable.
Total investment return based on market price is the combination of changes in the New York Stock Exchange market price per share and the effect of reinvested dividend income and reinvested capital gains distributions, if any, at the average price paid per share at the time of reinvestment. The actual reinvestment for the last dividend declared in the period may take place over several days as described in the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan, and in some instances may not be based on the market price, so the actual reinvestment price may be different from the price used in the calculation. Total investment return excludes the effect of broker commissions.
1 Per share amounts presented are based on average shares outstanding throughout the period indicated.
2 Effective as of the close of business on September 19, 2013, the Fund issued transferrable rights to its stockholders to subscribe for up to 2,590,000 shares of common stock at a rate of one share for every 3 rights held. The subscription price was initially set at 90% of the average closing price for the last 5 trading days of the offering period. However as the subscription price was less than 80% of the Net Asset Value ("NAV") of the Fund's common shares at the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on the expiration date, the subscription price was 80% of the Fund's NAV at the close of trading on that day. The shares were subscribed at a price of $19.29 which was less than the October 18, 2013 NAV of $24.11 thus creating a dilutive effect on the NAV.
3 Effective as of the close of business on April 21, 2015, the Fund issued transferrable rights to its stockholders to subscribe for up to 3,454,000 shares of common stock at a rate of one share for every 3 rights held. The subscription price was initially set at 90% of the average closing price for the last 5 trading days of the offering period. However as the subscription price was less than 78% of the NAV of the Fund's common shares at the close of trading on the NYSE on the expiration date, the subscription price was 78% of the Fund's NAV at the close of trading on that day. The shares were subscribed at a price of $17.20 which was less than the May 22, 2015 NAV of $22.05 thus creating a dilutive effect on the NAV.
4 Calculated by subtracting the Fund's total liabilities (not including borrowings) from the Fund's total assets and dividing by the total number of senior indebtedness units, where one unit equals $1,000 of senior indebtedness.

1.Organization
Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on June 8, 2011. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company, which invests primarily in publicly traded infrastructure companies. The Fund commenced operations on August 26, 2011.
Brookfield Investment Management Inc. (“BIM” or “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 Fund.
The investment objective of the Fund is to provide a high level of total return, with an emphasis on income. The investment objective is not fundamental and may be changed by the Fund's Board of Directors (the “Board”) without stockholder approval, upon not less than 60 days prior written notice to stockholders. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.
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. The 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 the 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 the 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 the Fund could purchase or sell a portfolio security at the price used to calculate the Fund’s 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 may 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 Fund’s net asset values may differ from quoted or official closing prices. Investments in open-end registered investment companies, if any, are valued at the net asset value (“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.
The 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 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 Fund has established methods of fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP. Fair value denotes the price that the 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 the 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 Valuation Committee 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 provider, who is 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.
The following table summarizes the Fund’s investments valuation inputs categorized in the disclosure hierarchy as of June 30, 2017:

A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.
The following is a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

The fair value of the Fund’s credit facility, which qualifies as a financial instrument under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820 Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments, approximates the carrying amounts presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As of June 30, 2017, this financial instrument is categorized as a Level 2 within the disclosure hierarchy.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, there were transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 of $2,430,474, which represent common stocks that were previously priced using the factor adjusted prices and currently priced using the market close prices. The basis for recognizing and valuing transfers is as of the end of the period in which transfers occur.
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 the 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.

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 Fund isolates 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 Fund does 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 the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid.
Taxes: The 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 stockholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The 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 Fund’s 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 June 30, 2017, the Fund has determined that there are no uncertain tax positions or tax liabilities required to be accrued.
The Fund has reviewed all taxable years that are 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 June 30, 2017, open taxable years consisted of the taxable years ended December 31, 2014 through December 31, 2016. No examination of the Fund’s tax returns is currently in progress.
Expenses: Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged directly to the Fund, while expenses which are attributable to the Fund and other investment companies advised by the Adviser are allocated among the respective investment companies, including the Fund, based upon relative average net assets, evenly or a combination of average net assets and evenly.
Distributions: The Fund declares and pays dividends monthly from net investment income. To the extent these distributions exceed net investment income, they may be classified as return of capital. The Fund also pays distributions at least annually from its net 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 the 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 and Upcoming Regulatory Changes: In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15 Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments which amends ASC 230 Statement of Cash Flows to clarify guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the Statement Of Cash Flows. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of these changes on the financial statements.
In October 2016, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted new rules and forms, and amendments to certain current rules and forms, to modernize reporting and disclosure of information by registered investment companies. The amendments to Regulation S-X will require standardized, enhanced disclosure about derivatives in investment company financial statements, and will also change the rules governing the form and content of such financial statements. The amendments to Regulation S-X take effect on August 1, 2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of these regulatory developments.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The amendments in the ASU shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities, held at a premium, to be amortized to the earliest call date. The ASU does not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; which continues to be amortized to maturity. The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this provision.
3.Derivative Financial Instruments
Forward Currency Contracts
A forward currency contract (“forward contract”) is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a currency at an agreed upon price for settlement at a future date. During the period the forward contract is in existence, changes in the value of the forward contract will fluctuate with changes in the currency exchange rates. The forward contract is marked to market daily and these changes are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Gain or loss on the purchase or sale of a forward contract is realized on the settlement date.
The Fund invests in forward contracts to hedge against fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies caused by changes in the prevailing currency exchange rates. The use of forward contracts involves the risk that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of their contracts and may be negatively impacted from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
The Fund did not have any forward contracts outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2017.
Equity Option Contracts
When the Fund purchases a put or call option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Fund is recorded as an investment and is subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option purchased, which is based on the last quoted sales price, or if no sale occurred, the last quoted bid price on the reporting date. Premiums paid for purchasing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized losses from investments. The difference between the premium and the amount received on writing an option to effect a closing transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized loss or, if the premium is less than the amount received from the closing transaction, as a realized gain. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the cost of the purchase of the underlying security in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the proceeds of the securities sold by the Fund.
When the Fund writes a put or call option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option written which is based on the last quoted price, or if no transaction occurred, the last quoted asked price on the reporting date. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from

investments. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain or, if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund.
In the normal course of its business, the Fund buys and sells financial instruments, including equity options, subscription rights, forward currency contracts, and warrants. Generally, these financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at future dates. The derivative financial instruments may be traded on an exchange or negotiated between contracting parties over-the-counter (or “OTC”).
The premium amount and the number of written option contracts during the six months ended June 30, 2017 were as follows:

4.Investment Advisory Agreement and Transactions with Related Parties
The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with the Adviser under which the Adviser is responsible for the management of the Fund’s portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operation of the Fund. The Advisory Agreement provides that the Fund shall pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets plus the amount of borrowing for investment purposes (“Managed Assets”). Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser may delegate any or all of its responsibilities to one or more investment sub-advisers, which may be affiliates of the Adviser, subject to the approval of the Board and stockholders of the Fund.

7.Capital Stock
The Fund has 1,000,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock authorized. Of the 13,799,240 shares outstanding at June 30, 2017 for the Fund, the Adviser owns 38,609 shares. The Fund’s Board is authorized to classify and reclassify any unissued shares of capital stock into other classes or series of stock and authorize the issuance of shares of stock without obtaining stockholder approval. The Board, without any action by the stockholders, may amend the charter from time to time to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that the Fund has authority to issue.
The common shares have no preemptive, conversion, exchange or redemption rights. All shares of the Fund’s common stock have equal voting, dividend, distribution and liquidation rights. The common shares are fully paid and non-assessable. Common stockholders are entitled to one vote per share and all voting rights for the election of directors are non-cumulative.
The Board approved a share repurchase plan. Under the current share repurchase plan, the Fund may purchase in the open market up to 10% of its outstanding common shares as of June 30, 2017. The current share repurchase plan will remain in effect between December 5, 2016 and December 5, 2017. The amount and timing of the repurchases will be at the discretion of the Fund’s management, subject to market conditions and investment considerations. There is no assurance that the Fund will purchase shares at any particular discount level or in any particular amounts. The Board authorized the share repurchase program as a result of its review of the options available to enhance stockholder value and reduce any potential discount between the market price of the Fund's shares and the net asset value per share.

8.Federal Income Tax Information
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
The federal income tax information referenced below is as of the Fund's most recently completed tax year-end of December 31, 2016.
The tax character of the distributions paid for the year ended December 31, 2016 was as follows:
Ordinary income (including short-term capital gains)

$
Return of capital

19,324,456
Total

$19,324,456
At December 31, 2016, the Fund’s most recently completed tax year-end, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Capital loss carryforward(1)

$(34,108,798)
Other accumulated losses

(1,469,833)
Post-October loss

(7,233)
Tax basis unrealized appreciation on investments

16,396,155
Total tax basis accumulated losses

$(19,189,709)

(1) To the extent that future capital gains are offset by capital loss carryforwards, such gains will not be distributed.
As of December 31, 2016, the Fund's capital loss carryforwards were $21,172,192 from short-term capital gains and $12,936,606 from long-term capital gains which will not expire.
Federal Income Tax Basis: The federal income tax basis of the Fund's investments, not including foreign currency translations, at June 30, 2017 was as follows:
Cost of Investments Gross Unrealized Appreciation Gross Unrealized Depreciation Net Unrealized Appreciation
$256,568,456 $39,398,334 $(12,475,182) $26,923,152
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 and return of capital. Permanent book and tax differences, if any, relating to stockholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in-capital or to undistributed capital gains. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.
9.Indemnification
Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for indemnification. The Fund’s 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 Fund. Thus, an estimate of the financial impact, if any, of these arrangements cannot be made at this time. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be unlikely.

10.Subsequent Events

$0.0817 July 20, 2017 July 27, 2017
$0.0817 August 17, 2017 August 24, 2017

Board Considerations Relating to the Investment Advisory Agreements  (Unaudited)
June 30, 2017

At a meeting held on May 25, 2017, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, considered and approved the continuation of the investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") between Brookfield Investment Management Inc. (the "Adviser") and the Fund. In approving the Advisory Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, determined that the fee structure was fair and reasonable and that approval of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its stockholders. The Board of Directors considered a wide range of information, including information regularly received from the Adviser at the quarterly Board meetings. While attention was given to all information furnished, the following discusses the primary factors relevant to the Board's decision.
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES. The Board considered the level and depth of knowledge of the Adviser. In evaluating the quality of services provided by the Adviser, the Board took into account its familiarity with the Adviser’s management through Board meetings, conversations and reports. The Board noted that the Adviser is responsible for managing the Fund's investment program, the general operations and the day-to-day management of the Fund and for compliance with applicable laws, regulations, policies and procedures. The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates are satisfactory. The Board's conclusion was based, in part, upon services provided to the Fund such as quarterly reports provided by the Adviser: 1) comparing the performance of the Fund with a peer group, 2) showing that the investment policies and restrictions for the Fund were followed, and 3) covering matters such as the compliance of investment personnel and other access persons with the Adviser's and the Fund's codes of ethics, the adherence to fair value pricing procedures established by the Board, the monitoring of portfolio compliance and presentations regarding the economic environment. The Board also considered the experience of the Adviser as an investment adviser and the experience of the team of portfolio managers that manages the Fund, and its current experience in acting as investment adviser to other investment funds and institutional clients.
INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE. The Board placed significant emphasis on the investment performance of the Fund in view of its importance to stockholders. While consideration was given to performance reports and discussions at Board meetings throughout the year and a comparative and risk-adjusted performance report prepared by management, particular attention in assessing the performance was given to a report (the “Broadridge Report”) for the Fund prepared by Broadridge, an independent third party provider of investment company data, furnished in connection with the contract renewal process. The Broadridge Report compared the Fund’s performance with a peer group of other funds (the “Performance Universe”), as selected by Broadridge, for the one-, two-, three-, four- and five-year periods ending April 30, 2017. The Board noted that the Fund performed above the median of its Performance Universe for the one-year period and below the median of its Performance Universe for the two-, three-, four- and five-year periods. Based on the Adviser’s explanation of the Fund’s performance in the current market and its recent improved performance, the Board concluded that the Fund's performance was satisfactory.
PROFITABILITY. The Board also considered the level of profits expected to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates in connection with the operation of the Fund. In this regard, the Board reviewed the Fund profitability analysis addressing the overall profitability of the Adviser for its management of the Brookfield fund family, as well as its expected profits and that of its affiliates for providing administrative support for the Fund. The Board further noted that the methodology followed in allocating costs to the Fund appeared reasonable, while also recognizing that allocation methodologies are inherently subjective. The Board concluded that the expected profitability to the Adviser from the Fund was reasonable.
MANAGEMENT FEES AND TOTAL EXPENSES. The Board also placed significant emphasis on the review of the Fund’s expenses. The Board compared the advisory fees and total expense ratio of the Fund with various comparative data that it had been provided, including comparisons of the Fund’s management fee and total expense level to those of a peer group selected by management (the “Expense Group”). The Board noted that the Fund’s total expenses and the Fund’s total advisory and administrative fee were higher than the respective medians of its Expense Group. The Board also noted that the fees and expenses payable by the Fund were comparable to those payable by other client accounts managed by the Adviser and concluded that the Fund's management fee and total expenses were reasonable.

Board Considerations Relating to the Investment Advisory Agreements  (Unaudited) (continued)
June 30, 2017

ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Board considered the potential economies of scale that may be realized if the assets of the Fund grow. The Board noted that if the Fund’s assets increase proportionally more than certain other fixed expenses over time, the stockholders might benefit from lower operating expenses as a result of an increasing amount of assets being spread over the fixed expenses of the Fund, but noted that, as a closed-end fund, the Fund was unlikely to grow significantly.
In considering the approval of the Advisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Directors, did not identify any single factor as controlling. Based on the Board’s evaluation of all factors that it deemed to be relevant, the Board, including the Independent Directors, concluded that the Adviser has demonstrated that it possesses the capability and resources necessary to perform the duties required of it under the Advisory Agreement; the Adviser was continuing to take steps to address the Fund’s performance; and the proposed Advisory fees are fair and reasonable, given the nature, extent and quality of the services to be rendered by the Adviser.
After carefully reviewing all of these factors, the Board, including the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan  (Unaudited)
June 30, 2017

A Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) is available to stockholders of the Fund pursuant to which they may elect to have all distributions of dividends and capital gains automatically reinvested by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Plan Agent”) in additional Fund shares. Stockholders who do not participate in the Plan will receive all distributions in cash paid by check mailed directly to the stockholder of record (or if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to the nominee) by the Fund’s Custodian, as Dividend Disbursing Agent.
The Plan Agent serves as agent for the stockholders in administering the Plan. After the Fund declares a dividend or determines to make a capital gain distribution, payable in cash, if (1) the market price is lower than the net asset value, the participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in Fund shares valued at the market price determined as of the time of purchase (generally, the payment date of the dividend or distribution); or if (2) the market price of the shares on the payment date of the dividend or distribution is equal to or exceeds their net asset value, participants will be issued Fund shares at the higher of net asset value or 95% of the market price. This discount reflects savings in underwriting and other costs that the Fund otherwise will be required to incur to raise additional capital. If the net asset value exceeds the market price of the Fund shares on the payment date or the Fund declares a dividend or other distribution payable only in cash (i.e., if the Board of Directors precludes reinvestment in Fund shares for that purpose), the Plan Agent will, as agent for the participants, receive the cash payment and use it to buy Fund shares in the open market, on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere, for the participants’ accounts. If, before the Plan Agent has completed its purchases, the market price exceeds the net asset value of the Fund’s shares, the average per share purchase price paid by the Plan Agent may exceed the net asset value of the Fund’s shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend or distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund. The Fund will not issue shares under the Plan below net asset value.
Participants in the Plan may withdraw from the Plan upon written notice to the Plan Agent. When a participant withdraws from the Plan or upon termination of the Plan by the Fund, certificates for whole shares credited to his or her account under the Plan will be issued and a cash payment will be made for any fraction of a share credited to such account.
There is no charge to participants for reinvesting dividends or capital gain distributions, except for certain brokerage commissions, as described below. The Plan Agent’s fees for handling the reinvestment of dividends and distributions are paid by the Fund. There are no brokerage commissions charged with respect to shares issued directly by the Fund. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent’s open market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and distributions.
The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve participants of any federal income tax that may be payable on such dividends or distributions.
A brochure describing the Plan is available from the Plan Agent, by calling 1-800-937-5449.
If you wish to participate in the Plan and your shares are held in your name, you may simply complete and mail the enrollment form in the brochure. If your shares are held in the name of your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you should ask them whether or how you can participate in the Plan. Stockholders whose shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee and are participating in the Plan may not be able to continue participating in the Plan if they transfer their shares to a different brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, since such stockholders may participate only if permitted by the brokerage firm, bank or other nominee to which their shares are transferred.
