By: Vertical Capital Markets Group MAI was chosen based on its expertise and five years of experience with MLP energy and infrastructure strategies. “This may be an ideal time for Vertical to enter the energy marketplace,” Midstream funds, such as the Vertical Capital MLP & Energy Infrastructure Fund, invest in businesses that provide transportation, processing and storage to the energy industry. IHS Global, Inc., an information and analytics company based in Englewood, Colo., estimates that more than $80 billion in direct capital will be invested in oil and gas infrastructure annually from 2014 through 2020. The Vertical Capital MLP & Energy Infrastructure Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation and current income through a diversified portfolio of investments in energy infrastructure and MLPs. It is intended to have low correlation with stocks or bonds, so it can be used to increase diversification, which reduces risk, Closser said. The benchmark for the fund is the Alerian MLP Index (http://www.alerian.com/ An MLP combines many of the tax benefits of a limited partnership with the liquidity of publicly traded securities. Under federal law, only certain businesses – primarily energy-related businesses – can organize as MLPs. The portfolio management team for the Vertical Capital MLP & Energy Infrastructure Fund includes four professionals with an average of 22 years of industry experience. The team has both equity and fixed-income experience. “We have confidence that MAI has the right skill set for the fund,” Closser said. “The portfolio management team members know and have ongoing contact with midstream companies, which provides them with more in-depth market intelligence than would be available if they relied solely on analyst reports.” About Vertical Capital Markets Group The Vertical group of companies, founded in 2004, provides access to an outstanding team of professionals with strong backgrounds in banking, finance, and investing.
