KBRA Launches Interactive BDC Compendium Tool to Power Smarter Private Credit Analysis

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA is pleased to announce a major upgrade to its Business Development Company (BDC) Compendium Tool, now available as a fully interactive, mobile-friendly web platform. This enhanced tool streamlines how users compare and analyze the more than 30 KBRA-rated BDCs, reinforcing KBRA’s leadership in private credit data and analytics. This integration marks a key milestone in KBRA’s commitment to delivering actionable insights through intuitive digital solutions.

Designed for institutional investors, credit analysts, and financial professionals, the upgraded tool enables users to:

• Sort and filter financial and ratings metrics across the full KBRA-rated BDC universe
• Compare company summaries and view side-by-side BDC profiles
• Spot trends in key categories such as total net assets, debt-to-equity, and total investments
• Export data directly to Excel for custom analysis and visualization

Investors are navigating an increasingly complex credit environment, and this upgrade brings greater clarity and control to that process. We’ve taken one of our most-used resources and made it smarter, faster, and more intuitive— so clients can focus less on formatting and more on what the data is telling them.

The interactive BDC Compendium Tool is updated quarterly and consolidates core data and credit metrics across KBRA-rated BDCs into one seamless experience. Alongside the Compendium, KBRA also provides a full suite of private credit research, including the Quarterly Middle-Market Surveillance Compendium, Recurring Revenue Loan Metrics, and Sector Outlooks—all available on kbra.com.
