IRVINE, Calif. - June 12, 2014 - PRLog -- IRVINE, Calif. June 12, 2014 – Vertical Capital Markets Group today announced the launch of the Vertical Capital Innovations MLP Energy Fund (VMLPX, VMLIX), sub-advised by Capital Innovations, LLC of Pewaukee, Wisc.

“As the U.S. pumps out more oil, the greater need for energy infrastructure will be a boon for master limited partnerships (MLPs),” according to Executive Vice President John Harline.  “The Vertical Capital Innovations MLP Energy Fund can help investors and advisors take advantage of this opportunity.”

Capital Innovations’ investment approach seeks to combine its energy industry investment expertise with financial market expertise to make sound investment decisions in MLP Positions. Capital Innovations manages MLP assets with a disciplined investment process focused on due diligence from the perspective of an MLP owner, operator and acquirer to create a portfolio of high quality MLPs with durable cash flows in order to seek to generate a high level of risk-adjusted return.

Nearly 130 MLPs are listed on major exchanges and they have a total market cap approaching a half trillion dollars.  MLPs investing in the energy industry are likely to become even more popular, as the booming hydraulic fracturing industry continues to bring the United States closer to energy independence, according to Vertical Capital President Bayard Closser.

He added that efforts to make Europe less dependent on Russian oil could provide an added boost to the energy boom.  Projections call for shale oil sales to exceed $40 billion in 2014, up from $36 billion in 2013, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Investors seeking income have also been attracted to MLPs in recent years because they offer potential for higher yields and tax advantages.

Vertical chose Capital Innovations as the sub-advisor for the MLP Energy Fund (VMLPX, VMLIX) based on the firm’s extensive real asset experience, investment performance, and reputation, Closser said.  CIO and CEO Michael D. Underhill and Portfolio Manager Susan L. Dambekaln will oversee overall construction and implementation of the MLP Energy Fund (VMLPX, VMLIX) portfolio.

“Vertical seeks to develop unconventional, innovative investment solutions,” Closser said.  “That’s a common characteristic of both of our funds today and will be a common characteristic of additional funds we are planning.”
