Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc. (KBDC) is a Business Development Company (BDC) structured as an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified investment company that operates under the regulatory framework of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The company focuses on providing financing to privately held middle-market companies, primarily through first lien senior secured, unitranche, and split-lien term loans, which it targets to comprise 80% to 90% of its portfolio. The remaining 10% to 20% of its portfolio is allocated to higher-yielding investments such as second lien loans, subordinated debt, high-yield bonds, CLO liabilities, and select equity securities.
BDCs are a regulated investment vehicle category created by Congress in 1980 to supply debt and equity capital to small and mid-sized private U.S. companies that often have limited access to traditional bank financing. As BDCs, these entities are generally required to invest at least 70% of their assets in qualifying private or thinly traded U.S. companies, and they typically distribute the majority of their taxable income to shareholders in order to maintain their pass-through tax status.
- Net interest income benefits from elevated SOFR and floating-rate loan exposure
