EMLP ETF

Many investors have recently looked to VettaFi's Head-To-Head ETF Comparison Tool to compare energy infrastructure ETFs: the Alerian MLP ETF (AMLP) and the First Trust North American Energy Infrastructure Fund (EMLP). While both funds offer exposure to the energy infrastructure space and boast similar tickers, the funds are very different.

First Trust North American Energy Infrastructure Fund is an actively managed ETF that provides income and diversification in the energy infrastructure sector. EMLP holds investments in various entities, including MLPs, pipeline C-Corps, regulated utilities, diversified utilities, YieldCo, other C-Corps, and oil services & equipment services with no K-1 filing requirement. The fund focuses on steady fee-for-service income exposure from midstream operators and regulated utilities, which offer a combination of income and growth.
