Description: OXLC Oxford Lane Capital November 12, 2025

Oxford Lane Capital Corp. (NASDAQ: OXLC) is a closed-ended investment fund launched on June 9 2010 and managed by Oxford Lane Management LLC. The fund’s mandate is to invest in fixed-income securities, principally through securitization vehicles that hold senior secured loans to below-investment-grade or unrated companies.

Key quantitative indicators (as of the most recent filing) include a net asset value (NAV) of roughly $10.2 billion, a distribution yield of about 8.5 % and an average weighted portfolio maturity of 4.2 years, reflecting a focus on short-to-intermediate term credit exposure.

The performance of OXLC is closely tied to macro-economic drivers such as the U.S. term structure of interest rates and high-yield credit spreads. A flattening yield curve or widening spreads typically compresses the fund’s net interest margin, while a steepening curve can enhance returns on its senior secured loan holdings.

Sector-specific factors also matter: the fund’s exposure to the leveraged-loan market means that corporate debt issuance trends, default rates, and recovery assumptions in the high-yield space materially affect cash flow and risk-adjusted returns.
