Adam Slager

Adam Slager is a Director at LBC Credit Partners, a Radnor, Pennsylvania–based private-credit manager focused on financing lower-middle-market companies. Per the firm's own announcement, he is responsible for LBC's treasury and financial planning activities — a finance/operations leadership role inside the fund, rather than a deal-sourcing investment role. LBC Credit Partners has since been acquired by and rebranded under CIFC, where the strategy now operates as "CIFC Direct Lending."

LBC promoted Slager to Director in an announcement carried in late January 2019 (covered by trade outlet ABL Advisor and LBC's own newsroom). At that time the firm reported that he had roughly 16 years of industry experience and had been with LBC for about nine years, implying he joined the firm around 2010 and entered the finance industry around 2003.

LBC Credit Partners manages approximately $3.2 billion in assets and specializes in senior, unitranche, and junior debt plus structured-equity investments in lower-middle-market businesses. The firm serves institutional clients through pooled investment vehicles and operates across offices in Philadelphia, New York, Miami, and London under the CIFC umbrella.

It is worth flagging clearly: the stub data classifies Adam Slager as an "Angel Investor" doing "Seed Round" deals. Nothing in the public record supports that. His verifiable role is corporate/fund treasury and financial planning at an institutional private-credit manager. Founders using the stub's classification are likely looking at a mislabeled aggregator record.

• His actual role is not startup investing. Slager runs treasury and financial-planning functions at LBC/CIFC — cash management, capital planning, and fund finance — not seed-stage venture check-writing.
• Firm-level strategy (LBC Credit Partners / CIFC Direct Lending): direct lending to lower-middle-market companies — senior secured, unitranche, second-lien/subordinated debt, and structured/minority equity co-investments.
• Firm-level "yes" criteria: established, cash-flow-generating businesses (typically private-equity–sponsored buyouts, recapitalizations, acquisitions, and growth financings), not pre-revenue seed startups.
• Sector-agnostic across North American lower-middle-market industries, prioritizing durable cash flows and downside protection typical of credit investing.
