AMZA
InfraCap MLP ETFAMZA Fund Description
AMZA is a complex, actively managed fund that invests in midstream MLPs that collect, process, store, or transport energy products. Structured as a C-corporation, the ETF pays taxes at the fund level.
AMZA Factset Analytics Insight
AMZA stands out in the MLP space for its active management and monthly distribution frequency. Most other MLP ETFs track indices and pay quarterly distributions. The fund’s active managers, Infrastructure Capital Advisors, intend to hold 25-50 MLPs, and expect cash distributions to comprise a significant portion of the fund’s total return. In addition, the fund employs leverage, shorting, and options strategies in an effort to enhance income and manage risk. Note that some other index-based peers take plenty of "active" risk, with huge stakes in smaller MLPs, for example. If the fund does well, its headline fee will likely increase as deferred tax expenses rise. That’s because AMZA is structured as a C-corporation and pays corporate taxes on gains, with the upside that its distributions are generally tax-deferred.
