There are legislative changes in the pipeline that will help $BCAP tremendously with respect to the IPO market and from there other services:

The Reopening American Capital Markets to Emerging Growth Companies Act – would reduce regulatory costs for an initial public offering by creating an IPO “on-ramp,” phasing in certain requirements over five years. The House is expected to vote on Thursday.

The bill would create a new category of issuers called “emerging growth companies” that would have five years – or less, if they reach $1 billion in annual revenue or $700 million in publicly traded shares sooner than that – to comply with certain regulatory requirements.

The National Venture Capital Association, the NASDAQ stock market, the New York Stock Exchange and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce are among the bill’s supporters.
