Lower interest rates negatively impact BDCs' net investment income due to the floating rate nature of their loans tied to the Fed Funds rate. A typical BDC portfolio, with a debt to equity ratio of 1.0x, cannot fully offset lower rates through floating leverage. However, there are some ways to manage this situation.

GLAD has shown strong price performance, with a 150% 5Y price return and 290% total return, outperforming the BIZD. The company's low leverage (0.68x) mitigates the impact of both the small portfolio size and the 7.4% decline in TII.

Currently, BDCs face several headwinds, which increase the risk of dividend cuts and price declines, especially within the more speculative and high-multiple segments.
