    The author considers higher-dimensional Majumdar-Papapetrou black holes. It is shown that in all dimensions any suitably regular asymptotically flat black hole solution in the generalised Majumdar-Papapetrou class must have: (a) a base \((\Sigma, h)\) isometric to euclidean space and (b) a harmonic function \(H\) of multi-centre type.
