SMALL BUSINESS INVESTMENT COMPANIES (SBIC) Money
for "venture" or "risk" investments is difficult for
small businesses to obtain. However, with the help of the Small Business
Investment Companies (SBIC's) money for such
investments may be found. SBIC's finance small
firms in two general ways: by straight loans or by equity-type investments
which give the SBIC actual or potential ownership of a portion of a small
business' equity securities. Many SBIC's provide
management assistance to the companies that they finance.... There are 9 SBIC's serving the Phila.
District....
