Brookfield acquired a stake in Barclays' merchant acquiring business last year, with plans to increase its interest over time.
Actimize was put up for sale by NICE earlier this year and had attracted interest from private equity firms including Advent International and New Mountain Capital, according to Sky News.
NICE acquired Actimize in 2007 for $280 million. The business now develops AI-powered solutions for fraud prevention, anti-money laundering and other financial crime risks for financial institutions globally.
Sky News said that Brookfield declined to comment on the report.
