About the Event

Following the successful launch of the inaugural U.S. Specialty Lender Finance Conference in November 2022, featuring a 1:1:1 ratio of service providers, originators & investors and quality programming, we are thrilled to announce the second annual event - SLF 2023 ™ Specialty Lender Finance.

This one-day event will explore the key funding factors specialty lenders should consider from launch phase to maturity, and eventual exit via M&A or a public ABS deal. Investors will have a unique forum to meet emerging and established specialty lenders and participate in a sector with an attractive yield and risk profile.

With the recent high-profile bank failures, increased lender-on-borrower scrutiny, and rising interest rates, this event will serve as an important and timely forum for originators seeking funding diversification and investors seeking opportunistic investments.
