Adam Salamon
MTS Health Partners has hired Adam Salamon to strengthen its coverage of private equity sponsors, adding a dedicated senior professional focused on building relationships with financial sponsors across the healthcare investment landscape.
Salamon joins the healthcare-focused investment bank from Citizens Financial Group, where he worked in the firm’s healthcare services practice, advising both industry companies and financial sponsors. In his new role at MTS, he will lead efforts to expand the firm’s strategic engagement with private equity firms, a core client base for healthcare dealmaking activity.
The appointment reflects continued competition among healthcare investment banks to deepen sponsor relationships as private equity remains a dominant force in healthcare transactions, spanning services platforms, healthcare IT, and outsourced pharmaceutical services. Sponsor coverage teams have become increasingly central to origination strategy as firms compete for buyout mandates and financing assignments in a highly active deal environment.
At MTS, Salamon will be responsible for developing and managing relationships with financial sponsors and supporting the firm’s broader advisory platform across mergers and acquisitions, capital raising, restructuring, and strategic consulting. The firm focuses exclusively on healthcare, advising companies across healthcare services, healthcare technology, and pharmaceutical services sectors.
Curtis S. Lane, Founding Partner of MTS Health Partners, said the hire is intended to reinforce the firm’s investment in sponsor coverage and enhance client service across its platform. He highlighted Salamon’s experience working across both healthcare companies and financial sponsors as a key factor in the decision.
Salamon said MTS’s positioning as an independent, healthcare-focused advisory platform was a key draw, noting the increasing complexity of healthcare transactions and the need for specialized advisory support in structuring and executing deals.
Before joining Citizens Financial Group, Salamon held roles at other financial institutions where he advised clients across multiple healthcare subsectors. His background spans both industry coverage and sponsor relationships, giving him exposure to the intersection of corporate healthcare strategy and private equity investment activity.
He holds an MBA from the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School and a bachelor’s degree in International Studies from Colby College.
MTS Health Partners has built its advisory business around healthcare-only coverage, positioning itself as a specialized investment bank focused on middle-market and large-cap healthcare transactions. The firm’s work includes advising on mergers and acquisitions, capital raises, restructurings, and strategic alternatives for healthcare services providers, life sciences companies, and healthcare technology businesses.
The addition of a dedicated sponsor coverage lead reflects broader trends in healthcare investment banking, where private equity firms remain active acquirers and capital providers across fragmented healthcare subsectors. As transaction structures become more complex and competition for assets intensifies, advisory firms have increasingly invested in relationship-driven roles aimed at originating proprietary or early-stage deal opportunities.
MTS Securities, LLC, an affiliated broker-dealer registered with the SEC and a member of FINRA and SIPC, executes securities-related transactions for the firm’s clients.
The hire underscores MTS’s continued focus on strengthening its connectivity with financial sponsors as healthcare deal activity remains anchored by private equity-backed platform formation, add-on acquisitions, and portfolio company monetization strategies.
