Given the continued volatility in the energy sector, companies are re-evaluating their business models which has resulted in investors asking many questions. During these times, it’s critical for companies to be accessible to investment professionals in order to provide guidance and reassurance moving forward. And although 2015 was a very tough year in the energy sector, being opportunistic at times of market dislocations like these often deliver the highest returns to investors.
With a new paradigm seemingly in place, we’re looking forward to our next Investing in MLPs conference as the year ahead will be an excellent opportunity for investment professionals looking to access the MLP space to better assess the overall energy landscape by doing their due diligence and feel more confident ahead of making their 2017 investment allotments.
