Webcast overview
Join professionals from KPMG and U.S. Bank for an informative webcast addressing the latest developments and insights on Business Development Companies (BDCs).
What are BDCs? Why are they attractive investment vehicles? How can they help accelerate growth for small to mid-size companies?
- BDCs are a special type of investment that combines the attributes of publicly traded companies with closed-end investment vehicles.
- Investing in BDCs gives public institutional and retail investors exposure to private credit investments.
- BDCs are high dividend yield models, generally attractive to public investors, particularly retail.
- Considered specialty finance companies, BDCs primarily make investments in small to mid-sized companies.
BDCs help these companies grow in the initial stages of development. They make a significant contribution to capital formation.
