Interest income increased $3.97 million and $10.68 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, when compared to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022, as a result of the Company's strategy to deploy capital into investments with attractive risk and return characteristics and increased loan income due primarily to the higher interest rate environment.
