GROUND SWELL CAPITAL, LLC

Overview

Ground Swell Capital, LLC is a hedge fund manager that runs portfolio management for pooled investment vehicles and acts as sponsor and general partner for its funds. The firm operates with an institutional client base and uses a fee model that combines a percentage of assets under management with performance-based fees. Public filings show the firm holds a mix of liquid equity instruments alongside significant allocations to non‑public strategies, indicating a multi‑sleeve approach that pairs tradable exposures with private and opportunistic investments. On the public side, Ground Swell uses exchange-traded funds and individual equities to establish market beta and tactical exposures; its largest disclosed holding is the Vanguard 500 Index Fund, which points to a meaningful S&P 500 allocation within the liquid sleeve. The bulk of the firm’s capital, however, resides in its hedge fund structures and in alternative investments such as private placements and third‑party hedge fund investments, which serve as the primary vehicle for delivering the strategy’s return profile and performance fees.
