HR 754 United States House · 119th Congress

Investing in Main Street Act of 2025

HR 754, the Investing in Main Street Act of 2025, amends the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 to increase the minimum investment requirement for Small Business Investment Companies (SBICs) from 5% to 15% of their capital. This change directly affects SBICs, which are private investment funds licensed to provide capital to small businesses. The key provision requires SBICs to allocate a larger portion of their capital to small business investments, potentially increasing funding availability. The bill makes a concrete policy change to existing SBIC regulations without creating new programs or specifying small business outcomes.
