EPN says will introduce new energy investment vehicle

Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto said on Wednesday that his government would soon introduce a new investment vehicle on the stock exchange aimed at tapping markets to fund energy infrastructure projects.

Peña Nieto mentioned the creation of Fibra E in his annual address to the nation.

Reuters reported last week that finance authorities are putting the finishing touches on rules for the vehicles, which will be similar to American "Master Limited Partnerships" (MLP).
