E212: Unlocking $175M: Raising Venture & Private Equity Capital with SBICs
How do you use the SBIC program to access long-dated, low-cost leverage—without blowing up risk?
In this episode, I speak with Eric Rosiak, CEO & CIO of Amplify Community Investment Partners, about the mechanics of SBICs, the new accrual debenture license for venture and growth, what top LPs look for, and how policy changes could expand the opportunity set. We dig into eligibility tests, realistic fund sizes, diligence standards (they’re no joke), and why some large platforms now run SBIC sleeves alongside billion-dollar flagships.
