By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., March 21 – Alerian announced Monday the launch of the Alerian Size indexes. They are the Alerian Large Cap MLP index, the Alerian Mid Cap MLP index and the Alerian Small Cap MLP index.

The indexes will be disseminated in real time on a price-return basis and on a total-return basis. They will capture more than 99% of total energy master limited partnership market capitalization, according to a company news release.

“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,” Alerian president and chief executive officer Kenny Feng said in the news release.
