Published Date: 5/12/2025

Notice

Summary

Varagon Capital and its partners want permission to team up and invest together in the same companies, which current rules usually don’t allow. This change would let certain investment groups pool their money for bigger opportunities, starting soon unless someone asks for a hearing by June 2, 2025. It’s a smart move that could help these companies grow and manage money more efficiently.
