The Small Business Investor Alliance gave RSM’s Chief Deputy Economist Kevin Depew a chance to discuss the current interest rate market and why changes in the weighted average cost of capital may disproportionately affect lower middle market businesses. This discussion includes perspectives on:
- Changes in interest rates and where the Federal Reserve will likely go from here
- The impact on middle market business from changes in interest rates
- What the current weighted average cost of capital means for businesses in a variety of industries and how asset managers should adapt
