General Description of Registrant [Abstract]  
Investment Objectives and Practices [Text Block] Our investment objective is to achieve high risk-adjusted returns produced primarily from current income generated by investing primarily in senior secured corporate debt instruments. We seek to achieve our investment objective through investments in privately-originated, performing senior secured debt primarily in North America-based companies with target enterprise values between $100 million and $1.5 billion. Performing debt is debt that at the time of investment is not defaulted or, in the view of the Advisers, distressed. The Fund targets positions in first lien, second lien and unitranche debt, with a preference for floating-rate debt, which the Advisers believe provides flexibility to adapt to changing market conditions. The Fund may invest in securities of any maturity and credit quality. Our investment activities will benefit from what we believe are the competitive advantages of our Advisers, including its diverse in-house skills, proprietary deal flow, and consistent and rigorous investment process focused on established, middle-market companies.
Risk Factors [Table Text Block]

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factor discussed below and the risk factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”), which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks described in our Annual Report and discussed below are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

The U.S. and global capital markets are subject to systemic risk that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Issuers, national and regional banks, financial institutions and other participants in the U.S. and global capital markets are closely interrelated as a result of credit, trading, clearing, technology and other relationships. A significant adverse development (such as a bank run, insolvency, bankruptcy or default) with one or more national or regional banks, financial institutions or other participants in the financial or capital markets may spread to others and lead to significant concentrated or market-wide problems (such as defaults, liquidity problems, impairment charges, additional bank runs and/or losses) for other participants in these markets. Future developments, including actions taken by the U.S. Department of Treasury, FDIC, Federal Reserve Board, and systemic risk in the U.S. and global banking sectors and broader economies in general, are difficult to assess and quantify, and the form and magnitude of such developments or other actions of the U.S. Department of Treasury, FDIC and Federal Reserve Board may remain unknown for significant periods of time and could have an adverse effect on the Company.

For example, in response to the rapidly declining financial condition of regional banks Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and Signature Bank (“Signature”), the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (the “CDFPI”) and the New York State Department of Financial Services (the “NYSDFS”) closed SVB and Signature on March 10, 2023 and March 12, 2023, respectively, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) was appointed as receiver for SVB and Signature. Although the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC have taken measures to stabilize the financial system, uncertainty and liquidity concerns in the broader financial services industry remain. Additionally, should there be additional systemic pressure on the financial system and capital markets, we cannot assure you of the response of any government or regulator, and any response may not be as favorable to industry participants as the measures currently being pursued. In addition, highly publicized issues related to the U.S. and global capital markets in the past have led to significant and widespread investor concerns over the integrity of the capital markets. The current situation related to SVB and Signature could in the future lead to further rules and regulations for public companies, banks, financial institutions and other participants in the U.S. and global capital markets, and complying with the requirements of any such rules or regulations may be burdensome. Even if not adopted, evaluating and responding to any such proposed rules or regulations could results in increased costs and require significant attention from the Adviser.
