NXT Capital, LLC?announced today that its subsidiary, NXT Capital SBIC, L.P., (?NXT SBIC?) has received a license from the United States Small Business Administration (?SBA?) to operate as a Small Business Investment Company.

?NXT plans to invest up to $75 million in equity in NXT SBIC over the next three years.
