What these concentrations mean together

updated 2026-07-06

Goldman Sachs BDC's portfolio concentration is primarily geographic and structural rather than counterparty-driven. The portfolio is overwhelmingly weighted toward the United States, at 94.8% of fair value, with the remainder split across Canada, the United Kingdom, and India — a large, structural concentration reflecting the BDC's domestic-lending focus rather than dependency on any single geography's cyclicality beyond the U.S. itself. Industry concentration is comparatively modest: Software represented the largest industry weighting at 17.6% of portfolio fair value, a smaller share that suggests reasonable diversification across the remaining book. Separately, the BDC depends on management personnel of its Investment Adviser, Goldman Sachs Asset Management, for its future success — a dependency-type exposure common to externally managed BDCs, where key-person or adviser continuity risk sits alongside the portfolio's own concentration. Taken together, the geographic concentration in the U.S. is the largest disclosed exposure and is structural to the strategy, while industry concentration is comparatively diversified and adviser dependency is the qualitative risk most likely to matter if management or advisory arrangements were to change.

Concentration counts reflect items disclosed in each peer’s most recent 10-K; disclosed-size classification uses TrendMatrix’s internal 10-K extraction taxonomy.

Concentration disclosures are extracted verbatim from SEC 10-K filings; the disclosed-size classification and the synthesis above are engine-derived. Size reflects how large each exposure is against fixed share thresholds (HIGH >50%, MEDIUM 25–50%, LOW <25% or an explicit diversification statement), not a judgment of how dangerous it is, and is not a buy/sell rating, a price target, or a view on the stock.
