Lunch and Learn: Private Credit and the Outlook of the Direct Lending Market with John Yeager

Join the Private Equity Club for an exclusive Lunch & Learn with John Yeager of WhiteHorse Capital for a discussion on career development, private credit investing, and the evolving direct lending landscape.

In this interactive session, John will walk through:
• His professional background and career journey — from breaking into finance to building a career in private credit and direct lending
• The current state of the direct lending market — including market dynamics, underwriting trends, competitive pressures, and where opportunities are emerging across the private credit landscape
• How investors are navigating today’s environment — with perspectives on risk, structuring, sponsor relationships, and capital deployment in an increasingly competitive market
• Advice for students entering the industry — including recruiting insights, skillsets to develop, and what differentiates successful junior investors in private credit and alternative investments

This is a great opportunity for students interested in private equity, private credit, and leveraged finance to gain firsthand market insights and candid career advice in an intimate setting. Lunch will be provided.
