What to Look for in a Cleantech BDC
When evaluating cleantech-focused BDCs, prioritize these signals:
- Dividend coverage: NII should comfortably exceed the distribution to indicate sustainability across market cycles.
- Portfolio diversification: Exposure to a single sector concentrates risk; check that the BDC caps any one issuer's weight responsibly.
- NAV stability: A history of stable or rising net asset value signals disciplined underwriting.
- Leverage: Lower leverage ratios cushion sector-specific drawdowns.
