AICA to Convene Leaders of Closed-End Funds, BDCs, and Interval Funds

The Active Investment Company Alliance (AICA) is set to convene executives from closed-end funds (CEFs), business development companies (BDCs), and interval funds for its 8th Annual Fall Roundtable on November 11, 2026, in New York. The event aims to address key issues facing these investment vehicles.

The full-day program, held at 48 Wall Street, will feature seven panel discussions, a keynote address, and a closing session, with more than 35 speakers and moderators. AICA anticipates 120 to 140 attendees, including financial advisors, asset managers, family offices, and institutional allocators. Six hours of continuing education credits are pending approval.

Discussions will cover topics such as the current trading discounts of listed BDCs, the implications of the Supreme Court's Saba decision on CEF governance, and how advisors should approach liquidity concerns in semi-liquid funds. The roundtable follows the Investment Company Institute's conference, enabling industry participants and the press to attend both events consecutively.

AICA is offering 10 complimentary press passes for qualified financial journalists. These passes grant full access to the program and facilitate interview arrangements with speakers. Applications must be submitted by November 10, 2026.
