Trade Organization Representing MLPs Announces New Name
National Association of Publicly Traded Partnerships to be named
Master Limited Partnership Association

Washington, D.C., May 20, 2015 – The advocacy organization known as the National Association of Publicly Traded Partnerships (NAPTP) will change its name to the Master Limited Partnership Association (MLPA). The organization is the nation’s only trade association representing publicly traded partnerships in Washington, D.C. and across the country.

“Our market has evolved over the years and now there are more than 100 MLPs,” said Mary Lyman, executive director of NAPTP. “The organization’s new name, Master Limited Partnership Association or MLPA, reflects the majority of our membership and how we are most commonly known among companies, investors, and policymakers.”

The organization will announce the upcoming change at its annual investor conference in Orlando, Florida, noting that a new logo, brand treatment and website will all debut in a formal rollout by the end of the summer. In addition to the new brand, the association will use the tagline “The Voice of America’s MLPs” in its marketing and communications.
