New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - April 2, 2026) - Covalis Capital ("Covalis"), a global asset manager specializing in infrastructure and other highly interconnected sectors including utilities, energy, industrials and materials, today announced it has selected the GLIO VettaFi Index Series as the primary benchmark for its listed infrastructure mandates.

The decision follows a comprehensive review of global benchmarks, with Covalis identifying the GLIO VettaFi Index as the premier standard for capturing the complex dynamics of the global listed infrastructure market. The index series is widely recognized for its "purist" definition of infrastructure, ensuring that benchmarks remain focused on high-quality, long-lived physical assets.

Precision Through Collaboration
Covalis selected the index series not only for its technical rigor but for the unique, consultative nature of the VettaFi team. Unlike static, legacy benchmarks, the GLIO VettaFi methodology benefits from an iterative approach that integrates real-time developments within the global infrastructure universe.

"We selected the GLIO VettaFi Index Series for its unparalleled accuracy and comprehensive international reach," said Leonardo Anguiano, Portfolio Manager, Global Listed Infrastructure Strategy, Covalis Capital. "Equally important, the VettaFi team is by far the most engaged and collaborative group working with portfolio managers in the space. Their pragmatic perspective allows the benchmark to evolve with the sector, capturing its most valuable characteristics while maintaining a disciplined, purist definition of infrastructure."

Institutional Momentum
The adoption of the index by Covalis Capital underscores a broader trend of institutional shift toward specialized, transparent indexing in the real assets space. The GLIO VettaFi Index Series provides investors with a clear lens into the performance of essential services, including energy transmission, transportation, and digital infrastructure.

Fraser Hughes, CEO of GLIO, commented: "We are delighted that Covalis Capital has selected the GLIO VettaFi Index, recognizing the strength of our methodology and the depth of our listed infrastructure expertise. This partnership reinforces the growing institutional adoption of GLIO's indices as a trusted benchmark for global infrastructure and real assets exposure."
