BDCs: 4 High-Dividend Ideas to Boost Your Portfolio
The private equity world thrives on exclusivity. Everyday investors, unfortunately, are generally not given the opportunity to invest in these types of funds.
A way to bypass this exclusivity is through business development companies, or BDCs, often run by some of the largest and best-regarded financial institutions.

BDCs make loans to and/or buy equity stakes in mostly private businesses of all shapes and sizes.
Here we highlight four promising BDCs, ranging in market valuation from $800 million to $8 billion.
