DALLAS, March 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Alerian
announced today the real-time launch of the Alerian Size Indices,
composed of the Alerian Large Cap MLP Index (AMLI), Alerian Mid Cap
MLP Index (AMMI), and Alerian Small Cap MLP Index (AMSI). The three
indices, which will be disseminated real-time on a price-return
basis and on a total-return basis, will capture more than 99% of
total energy Master Limited Partnership (MLP) market
capitalization.
"With the number of energy MLPs more than doubling and their
collective market capitalization quintupling over the past 10
years, interest in grouping these securities in different ways has
also taken off," said Alerian President and CEO Kenny Feng. "In the same way that the Energy MLP
Classification Standard (EMCSSM) enables stakeholders to
better evaluate sector exposure, the Alerian Size Indices will
provide investors, management teams, and analysts with an
additional research and assessment tool based on company size."
