Firm profile

FINTRX

Overview

Kabouter Management, LLC is an SEC‑registered hedge fund organized as an LLC that runs active, institutionally oriented strategies. The firm manages pooled vehicles and separately managed portfolios, acting in capacities consistent with a CPO/CTA and as sponsor/GP or managing member of its funds. Its client base is primarily institutional, and its fee model combines a percentage of assets under management with performance‑based fees. Kabouter identifies as an active ESG investor and shows a clear equity preference, using exchange‑traded instruments for liquid exposure while operating private pooled vehicles for less liquid or bespoke allocations. Investment activity centers on concentrated public equity exposures delivered both through ETFs and direct stock positions, supplemented by private funds and real‑asset allocations. The firm’s structure and product mix indicate it balances liquid, ETF‑based tilts (notably small‑cap international) with longer‑duration commitments via its hedge funds and other private fund vehicles.
