Funds Allowed to Co‑Invest Together
If you own investment funds that invest in business development companies (BDCs) or closed‑end management investment companies, the SEC is considering an application (filed August 19, 2024 and amended January 2, 2025) to allow those funds to co‑invest with each other and with certain affiliated investment entities. If the SEC grants the requested order, those funds could pool money together and potentially boost returns for their investors; interested persons had until February 24, 2025 to request a hearing on the application.
