Investo MVIS U.S. Business Development Fund

The Investo MVIS U.S. Business Development Fund is an exchange-traded fund designed to provide Brazilian investors with targeted exposure to the U.S. business development company (BDC) sector. Its primary function is to replicate the performance of the VanEck BDC Income ETF, which tracks a specialized index of publicly traded U.S. BDCs. Business development companies play a crucial role in the U.S. financial system by supplying credit and investment capital to small and mid-sized businesses that may lack direct access to traditional funding sources. The fund offers investors diversified access to the private credit market, focusing predominantly on financial sector assets. BDCs are regulated entities required to distribute a significant portion of their taxable income to shareholders, making them a noteworthy component for income-focused strategies. With its structure as an ETF, the Investo MVIS U.S. Business Development Fund enables participation in a segment of the credit market that typically exhibits low correlation to conventional equities and fixed income assets. The fund is part of the broader Investo and VanEck group offerings, which are recognized for providing specialized sector ETFs on the Brazilian market.
