RA: NAV Erosion Will Continue Even When Interest Rates Decline

Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund maintains a high 10.9% yield but suffers from persistent NAV erosion due to unsustainable dividend payouts. RA's net investment income consistently fails to cover distributions, forcing reliance on net realized gains and return of capital, which undermines NAV stability. The fund's heavy allocation to below-investment-grade, floating-rate credit and use of leverage heighten risk, especially in a high-rate environment.
