SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On August 17, 2023, the U.S. Small Business Administration 
(``SBA'') implemented new regulations for the Small Business Investment 
Company (``SBIC'') program as part of the SBIC Investment 
Diversification and Growth rulemaking. The new regulations 
significantly reduce barriers to program participation for new SBIC 
fund managers and funds investing in underserved communities and 
geographies, capital intensive investments, and technologies critical 
to national security and economic development. The proposed rule 
introduced two additional types of SBIC Licensees, Reinvestor SBICs and 
Accrual SBICs, to increase program investment diversification and 
equity-oriented financing for American small businesses and innovative 
startups. Reinvestor SBICs expand SBA's network of emerging fund 
managers, micro-funds, and funds addressing underserved communities and 
geographies and undercapitalized industries.

II. Questions

    For the public webinar, OII strongly encourages questions be 
submitted in advance by March 20, 2024. Individuals may email
