NEOS Investments, a leading issuer of options-based exchange-traded funds, announced the recent launch of three new ETFs in December, further expanding its lineup of tax efficient monthly income solutions and capping a year of strong asset growth and industry recognition.

The new ETFs include the NEOS Ethereum High Income ETF (NEHI), the NEOS Long/Short Equity Income ETF (NLSI), and the NEOS MLP & Energy Infrastructure High Income ETF (MLPI). Each was introduced in December as part of NEOS’ continued effort to broaden exposure to differentiated income solutions across investor portfolios.

“We believe these launches reflect the evolution of how investors are thinking about income across their portfolios,” said Garrett Paolella, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at NEOS Investments. “By launching another offering with exposure to digital assets and expanding into areas like long/short equity and energy infrastructure, we are applying our options-based strategies to asset classes where income opportunities and volatility can be thoughtfully harnessed.”

• NEHI seeks to provide high monthly income and upside potential while maintaining exposure to Ethereum through an options-based approach designed to harness the high levels of volatility present within Ethereum’s price.
• NLSI combines a proprietary long/short equity portfolio with an income overlay, offering investors a differentiated approach to long/short strategies, which have traditionally only focused on total returns, rather than income.
• MLPI aims to deliver tax efficient monthly income through exposure to MLPs and energy infrastructure, leveraging the tax efficient pass-through characteristics of the asset class while seeking high monthly income distributions.

The December launches follow a year of significant momentum for NEOS Investments, including strong growth in assets under management, continued expansion of its ETF lineup, and increasing adoption of options-based income strategies by advisors and investors.

In 2025, NEOS won two industry awards, including ETF.com’s Best New Active ETF, which was awarded to QQQI, and the ETF Express U.S. Award for Best Options Strategies ETF Issuer ($1-$10b). The firm also received multiple industry award nominations at the 2025 Wealth Management Industry Awards, reflecting its growing recognition within the ETF industry.

“Our focus remains on building sustainable income solutions that all follow a disciplined, data-driven approach.” said Troy Cates, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at NEOS Investments. “As income continues to play a larger role in portfolio construction, we believe options-based ETFs can offer a flexible and tax efficient way to pursue monthly income across asset classes.”

Founded by pioneers in the options-based ETF space, NEOS Investments continues to expand its platform with ETF solutions designed to help investors seek tax efficient monthly income across portfolio exposures and market environments.
