SLR seeks to generate consistent, current income by investing primarily in senior secured cash flow, specialty finance and asset-based loans to middle market companies. On a selective basis, we make control investments in specialty finance companies.

SLR’s investment professionals utilize their deep relationships with middle market financial sponsors, intermediaries, and management teams to generate proprietary investment opportunities. We collaborate with our borrowers to provide customized financing solutions. Our senior investment professionals remain involved at each stage of the investment process from origination through repayment.

We take a private equity-style approach to credit investing that incorporates extensive due diligence. We draw upon the investment experience, industry expertise, and network of contacts of our senior investment professionals, who on average have over 20 years of experience. A critical component of our analysis is focused on downside protection and a borrower’s ability to meet its debt service requirements.

SLR seeks to identify the most attractive risk-adjusted return investment opportunity across a borrower’s capital structure and to assess the relative attractiveness of financing a borrower’s cash flow and/or its assets. We believe the flexibility to offer a range of financing solutions provides SLR with the best opportunity to protect capital and earn a return commensurate with the risk over multiple economic cycles.

SLR manages credit risk by applying a rigorous, hands-on underwriting process to each investment. Its comprehensive approach continues with a disciplined monitoring process until the loan is repaid, which includes ongoing dialogue with company management and financial sponsors.
