LETTER TO UNITHOLDERS

Dear Unitholders,

We are pleased to provide this Interim Management Report of Fund Performance for Brookfield GlobalInfrastructure Securities Income Fund (the “Fund”) for the six months ended June 30, 2015 (the“Period”).

The Fund was created with the objectives to (i) provide holders of Units (“Unitholders”) with quarterlycash distributions; (ii) maximize total return for Unitholders through distributions and capitalappreciation; and (iii) preserve capital. The quarterly distributions are currently targeted at $0.15 perUnit or $0.60 per annum, representing a targeted annual cash distribution of 6.0% based on the $10.00per unit issue price. To achieve this high income return, the Fund is comprised primarily of publicly-traded global infrastructure equity securities.

PERFORMANCE

As at June 30, 2015, the net asset value per Unit of the Fund was $9.47 compared to a net asset valueper Unit of $10.37 on December 31, 2014. For the period ended June 30, 2015, the Fund had a totalreturn of -5.87%, including payment of quarterly distributions to Unitholders of $0.15 per Unit.

Despite periods of volatility, global equities ended the first half of 2015 in positive territory. The MSCIWorld Index returned 3.0% from January 1, 2015 to June 30, 2015, led by Asia Pacific (+9.0%), andEurope (+4.3%), with weaker returns from North America (+1.2%).1 Market performance weakened intothe end of the period, as several key developments rattled investor confidence. Of primary concernwas the potential for Greece to default on its sovereign debt obligations and possibly exit theEurozone, while the governor of Puerto Rico announced late in June that the island would not be ableto pay its approximately $72 billion in debt.2 In addition, China’s equity markets suffered significantintra-day volatility during June, retreating from strong year-to-date performance.3 As a result of thisgeopolitical uncertainty, the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (VIX) spiked at the end ofJune to its highest level since February 2015.4

Across global equity markets, healthcare (+10.3%) was the strongest sector, followed by consumerdiscretionary (+7.3%) and telecommunications (+5.7%).5 In contrast, the utilities (-7.5%) and energy (-4.7%) sectors significantly underperformed for the period, as investor concern over rising interest ratesand lower energy prices negatively impacted these sectors. Other more defensive sectors, includingindustrials (+1.3%) and materials (+1.4%), also underperformed. In the U.S., economic data remainedmixed, as GDP growth turned negative in the first quarter of 2015 to an annualized rate of-0.7%.6 However, the U.S. unemployment rate declined in the period from 5.6% to 5.3%, and the U.S.economy added 223,000 jobs in June.7 As expected, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) did not raiseinterest rates at its June meeting, but Fed Chair Janet Yellen indicated that a rate hike was likely tooccur later in 2015. Of note, the Fed suggested that interest rate increases would be implementedmore gradually than previously anticipated.8 For the period, the yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasurynote increased to 2.35% on June 30, 2015, compared with 2.17% as of December 31, 2014.9

Infrastructure securities underperform for the first six months of 2015Global infrastructure securities underperformed the MSCI World Index during the period, with the DowJones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Composite Index (the “Benchmark”) returning -4.2%.10 Regionalperformance diverged significantly, as Asia Pacific (+6.7%) generated strong performance, while Europe(-2.3%) and the Americas (-6.0%) weighed negatively on returns. By sector, transportation sectors,including airports (+10.6%), ports (+8.9%) and toll roads (+3.4%), were the strongest performers. Thecommunications (-1.1%), water (-1.7%) and diversified (-3.9%) sectors also outperformed theBenchmark. The electricity transmission & distribution sector struggled for the period, returning -8.5%,as higher interest rates weighed on investor sentiment. Within energy infrastructure sectors, the oil &gas storage & transportation sector returned -4.5%, while Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”)returned -11.0% through June 30, 2015.11

OUTLOOK

Despite near-term volatility due to macro concerns and the specter of rising interest rates, we believethe fundamental outlook for most infrastructure sectors remains positive. In the midst of broaderequity weakness, we continue to believe that bottom-up security selection has the potential to identifyattractive opportunities. We are monitoring the impact of commodity price fluctuations and decreasingcapital flows on the performance of MLPs, but we continue to believe in the long-term fundamentalsfor the MLP sector. We expect any increase in U.S. interest rates will be a slow and deliberate process,resulting in low nominal rates for the foreseeable future.

By region, we believe that the U.S. has significant growth potential, although recent data remainsmixed. We maintain our view that quantitative easing activity in Europe will provide support for theregion. Although we do not expect recent developments in Greece to have a meaningful contagioneffect, we are monitoring the potential impact on currency markets, interest rates and Eurozonedemand. In Japan, fundamentals remain stable, and selected Japanese infrastructure companies havebecome attractive. We believe that Australia will likely continue to face headwinds due to lowercommodity prices and the prospect of weaker demand from China. Within emerging markets, Brazilremains challenged, as growth remains low, inflation remains high and corruption probes continue. InChina, local equity markets declined significantly after peaking in mid-June. We believe that equityvolatility could continue in China in the near term, although we are positive on the longer-termfundamentals for the country.

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

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES

The Fund endeavours to (i) provide holders of units (“Unitholders”) with quarterly cash distributionscurrently targeted at $0.15 per unit ($0.60 per annum representing an annual cash distribution of 6.0%based on the $10.00 per unit issue price) (ii) maximize total return for Unitholders throughdistributions and capital appreciation; and (iii) preserve capital.

The Fund invests in a portfolio (the “Portfolio”) comprised primarily of publicly-traded globalinfrastructure companies that own and operate infrastructure assets. Brookfield InvestmentManagement (Canada) Inc. (“BIM Canada”) is the manager (the “Manager”) of the Fund and BrookfieldInvestment Management Inc. is the investment manager of the Fund.

RISK

At June 30, 2015, the Fund was primarily invested in publicly-traded global infrastructure equitysecurities of companies domiciled in the United States and to a lesser extent, Europe, Canada, Asia,Australia, and Latin America. The Fund had a 6% allocation to fixed income securities as of June 30,2015. To fund the cash distribution currently targeted at $0.60 per Unit per annum, while preservingthe net asset value, the Fund is exposed to various risks including risks related to the credit quality ofthe issuer of the securities, the trading liquidity of the securities and the currency in which thesecurities are denominated. The Fund seeks to minimize potentially adverse effects of these risks onperformance by employing experienced portfolio managers, and by continuously monitoring the Fund’ssecurities positions and markets. Since the Fund’s inception on July 18, 2013, there has been nomaterial change in the overall level of risk created by the credit quality, trading liquidity or currencydenomination of the investments.

For discussion of the Fund’s use of leverage, please see “Results of Operations”.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Fund began operations on July 18, 2013 when it completed an initial public offering of 32,500,000units (the “Units”) and subsequently issued 1,900,000 Units pursuant to an over-allotment option onJuly 31, 2013 at $10.00 per Unit, for gross proceeds of $344.0 million and net proceeds of $325.1million after deducting issuance costs of approximately $18.9 million.

The Fund’s net asset value was $324.6 million as at June 30, 2015, a decrease of $30.9 million from$355.5 million as at December 31, 2014. The decrease in net asset value was largely comprised ofoperating loss of $20.1 million less withholding taxes of $0.4 million. The Fund’s net asset value wasreduced by $10.3 million during the six months ended June, 30, 2015 through distributions toUnitholders and further reduced by the redemption of 10,500 Units for $0.1 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 (the “Period”), the net asset value per Unit of the Fund was$9.47 compared to $10.37 on December 31, 2014. The Fund’s total return was -5.87% for the Period.

The Fund’s total return over the Period was driven by varying levels of performance across sectors andregions. By sector, long exposure to the Communications, Other and Midstream sectors were thelargest contributors to the Fund’s performance. The largest detractors to performance included longand short positions within the MLP and Electric Utilities & Generation sectors, as well as long exposureto the Pipelines sector.

By region, long exposure to Continental Europe and Asia Pacific were the largest contributors.Conversely, long and short positions within the U.S. and United Kingdom detracted from performance,as did long exposure to Canada.

By security, the largest contributors to positive performance were long positions in the WilliamsCompanies, Inc. (WMB, midstream, U.S.), Flughafen Zurich AG (FHZN, airports, Switzerland) and EITowers SpA (EIT, communications, Italy). In contrast, long positions in Crestwood Midstream PartnersLP (CEQP, MLP, U.S.) and EV Energy Partners, L.P. (EVEP, MLP, U.S.) were the largest detractors fromperformance for the period. In addition, a short position in Hi-Crush Partners LP (HCLP, MLP, U.S.) alsowas a significant detractor from performance.

We continue to utilize our fundamental, bottom-up approach to investing in order to identify attractiveinvestment opportunities. We have preferred to seek opportunities among securities that offer areasonable combination of yield and growth, which have also tended to offer the most attractivevaluations.

Leverage is restricted to 33% of the total assets of the Fund. Accordingly, at the time of borrowing, themaximum amount of leverage that the Fund could employ is 1.50:1 (total long positions, includingleveraged positions, divided by net assets of the Fund). As at June 30, 2015, the Fund had employedleverage equal to 28.6% (December 31, 2014 – 24.6%) of the total assets of the Fund, which equates to$149.9 million (December 31, 2014 - $139.1 million). The minimum and maximum amount ofborrowings outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $140.5 million and $153.6million, respectively, and $77.6 and $139.9 million, respectively, for the twelve months endedDecember 31, 2014. The borrowings were used to grow the Fund’s investments and for working capitalneeds. Adding a controlled amount of leverage to the Fund is consistent with the Fund’s objectives.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

There have been no recent developments in the market, outlook, or operations of the Fund thatrepresent a material change for investors.

Transition to IFRSIn accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, the financial statements for the fiscal yearbeginning January 1, 2014 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial ReportingStandards (“IFRS”). The Fund adopted this basis of accounting as required by Canadian securitieslegislation and the Canadian Accounting Standards. Previously, the Fund prepared its financialstatements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles as defined in Part Vof the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada Handbook.

Under Canadian GAAP, the Fund measured the fair value of its investments in accordance with Section3855, Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement, which required the use of bid prices forlong positions and ask prices for short positions; to the extent such prices were available. Under IFRS,the Fund measures the fair values of its investments using the guidance in Fair Value Measurement,which requires that if an asset or a liability has a bid price and an ask price, then its fair value is to bebased on a price within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of fair value. It also allows theuse of mid-market pricing or other pricing conventions that are used by market participants as apractical expedient for fair value measurements within a bid-ask spread. As a result, upon adoption ofIFRS an adjustment was recognized.

Notes:(1) The Fund commenced operations on July 18, 2013.(2) Management expense ratio (“MER”) is based on total expenses of the Fund (excluding distributions, commissions and

other portfolio transaction costs but including interest expense) for the stated period, and is expressed as anannualized percentage of daily average net asset value during the Period.
