I've had this one and a couple more BDC's in my ROTH for about 3 years, as far as I know there's no special issues, as there are with REITS and MLP's. I'd suggest doing your own research, though. Can't understand why anyone would own much in the way of bonds nowadays, with these paying so much more and so much more likely to appreciate in value. There's a couple of websites dedicated to BDC's so check them out.
