BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Bain Capital Specialty Finance, Inc. (NYSE: BCSF, the “Company”) today announced the formation of Bain Capital Senior Loan Program, LLC (“SLP”). The SLP will provide BCSF with greater balance sheet flexibility to capitalize on senior middle market loan opportunities to borrowers in North America.
