    WALSH SEC OVERSIGHT OF BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT COMPANIES JOHN H. WALSH** Business Development Companies, or BDCs, are the public face of the venture capital business. The BDC is a specialized type of Investment Company that combines the economic functions of venture capital with public disclosure, market trading, and regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission. This article examines the regulatory issues of concern to the SEC, in its oversight of BDCs, as revealed by the SEC’s enforcement activity. The article suggests that while the number of enforcement cases against BDCs has been relatively small, given the success of the business model, the cases reveal several continuing issues that warrant attention by every BDC.
