The BDC structure through Capital Q’s multi-asset investment model

September 2026  |  Educational overview

This guide explains the BDC as a regulated investment structure and then follows Capital Q’s Full-Stack Venture Capital Fund® investment thesis through venture capital, private credit, private equity, and Significant Managerial Assistance. It is written for readers who want to understand how a multi-asset BDC can finance entrepreneurs, how shareholders may earn or lose money, and which legal and practical limits shape the model.

The sections move from the company receiving capital to the shareholder owning BDC shares. General rules apply to BDCs as a class. References to Capital Q describe its investment thesis; they do not replace the current terms of CAPQ BDC’s offering documents.
